This week on #ChatswithChelsi, we have a crossover with my newly launched cooking show, #CookingwithChelsi.

I have been excited, yet also very nervous to begin this new show, my first cooking show. It is totally different than my talk show. Yet, you will hear so much about my health journey through Season 4 that I couldn’t not share this episode.

In the first episode of #CookingwithChelsi, I share ‘Why I Went Vegan and Gluten-Free,’ changes I made to become the CEO of my health, and what you can expect from future episodes.

In the last three years, I have had over 7 diagnoses including insomnia, IBS, adenomyosis, acid reflux, and alopecia. I made the HUGE leap last year and changed my diet - I went vegan and gluten-free. Yet, my health journey started +15 years ago with stomachaches, headaches, nausea, body aches, and other unexplainable symptoms.

On this week’s #ChatswithChelsi, Lisa Fields, my college best friend, joins us to discuss being best friends, our broken friendship, and where we stand now.

Those who knew us in college can attest to us being attached at the hips and many also remember when that changed. We share what we have learned about friendship in hopes to help you and your best friend.

Lisa is also the founder of the Jude 3 Project. She will be back on Chats with Chelsi later this season to share more on the international movement she launched.

Dr. Yewande Austin joins us on #ChatswithChelsi this week to share how she found her purpose.

Dr. Austin has taken center stage with musical icons from the Black Eyed Peas to Maroon 5, but it is her work as an award-winning lecturer, social activist and honorary U. S. Cultural Ambassador that has become her greatest achievement.

Dr. Austin is a crowned Chief of the Obosi Kingdom in Anambra, Nigeria for her dedication to the African diaspora. Conferred with an Honorary Doctorate in Humanitarianism from Stanford University (United Kingdom), this 2015 TED speaker has also been recognized as a 2017 President Barack Obama Lifetime Achievement Award and 2018 African Global Chamber of Commerce Award honoree. Most recently, she has been honored to serve as a 2019 American Heart Association Ambassador and as a 2020 CNBC “Rising Woman” – 1 of 35 women who are changing the future of Africa through economic development

This two-part chat will challenge and inspire you to re-evaluate your perspective on purpose and journey to purposeful living.

Allison Lawrence returns to Chats with Chelsi to discuss the ‘Healing Power in Ending Friendships & Therapy.’ She is known for using #TrusttheProcess on Twitter as she continues to heal and progress through #LifeAfterDivorce. Earlier this season, Allison shared her continued journey of ‘Overcoming Adversity’ — what life has looked like after her former husband announced their divorce on Mother’s Day 2017. Little did she know that major hurdles were still ahead, including her new job that was minutes from his business and learning that childhood friends were aware of his extramarital affairs. She felt the betrayal and made tough discussions to protect her mental space, including seeking a licensed therapist.
