The Café Stop: Maria Dalzot

In this episode, brought to you by the The Mazama Store (@mazamastore), in Mazama, Washington, we sit down with Registered Dietitian, Nutrition Therapist, and Professional Trail and Mountain Runner, Maria Dalzot. Maria is specializes in trauma, and she has significant expertise with respect to the relationship between trauma and eating behavior. She is also polyvagal informed within her work. Maria has the distinction of being the first runner we have had on the show, and you're likely to find her on a trail near Bellingham, Washington.

Maria provides a first hand account of what it is like to compete in professional trail and mountain running races on the world stage. She provides detailed accounts of the physical and mental challenges associated with this, as well as the overwhelmingly joyous moments and the beauty of being able to see some of the world's most beautiful and picturesque sights. Maria notes that her incredible supporters (@lasportivana, @trailbutter, her husband and amazing photographer, Tad Davis: @watrailrunner, and countless others), and the global running community as a whole, have been quite impactful in her journey.  Maria also provides us with a thorough walk through of trauma and how it impacts the mind and body, as well as it's severe impact on eating behaviors. We discuss her powerful work with her clients and the life-altering support that she provides, as well as a look into what lies ahead. All of this and so much more as we enjoy coffee with Maria. We hope you enjoy this important conversation.

We also appreciate any and all 5 star ratings (if you think we deserve it, if not, message us and let us know what we can do to get there!) as it helps us bring more inspirational and entertaining content your way. Have a great day, and remember, whether it's the beans or the pedals, always keep grinding!
