36: Coaching Our Kids To Be Accountable For Their Wellness

In this interview, Liza speaks with Tamara Ortegal, health coach and mom. Over ten years ago two of her sons were diagnosed with severe Crohn’s disease.

Tamara shares the reality of living with chronic illness and how small modifications ensured her sons still had a very fulfilled and normal childhood. Find out how she navigated this journey and empowered her sons.
