Food should bring joy, comfort, nourishment, and safety, but food allergies and chronic illness often turn food into something stressful, restrictive, or scary.

Lauren Less, creator of Less with Laur, is here to talk about her experiences with adult-diagnosed food allergies, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), and Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS).

Lauren brings her training as a mental health professional and her passion for healthy, mindful cooking and living into a conversation about how living with food allergies and restrictions can affect mental health, body image, and identity. Together, we explore how to begin restoring joy, creativity, and connection in the kitchen again.

Lauren opens up about her transition out of the mental health field, the lessons she’s carried forward into her work, and the practical ways she helps people find peace with food again.
