We Get to Know baker, blogger and author Audrey Snowe from Unconventional Baker.

Audrey loves to create and explore simple, wholesome, vegan, and allergy-friendly recipes. She originally created her food blog as a way to document her baking experiments with alternative ingredients but soon realized her blog had wide appeal. Her website (unconventional baker.com) is a recipe inspiration resource for the hundreds of thousands of people visiting it monthly. Audrey lives in the Canadian countryside where her backyard is a forest. She is an avid reader, runner, and international traveller. She loves spending time in nature and draws much of her inspiration for her treats and photography from the great outdoors.

In this episode we have an in-depth conversation on how Audrey has navigated her own health and nutrition complications. We discuss how a few of her recipes went viral and the resulting explosion she saw in her blog popularity. We can't stress enough how gorgeous and delicious her sweet creations look and taste (we know we've made one ourselves!). We love Audrey’s natural and down-to-earth choices for her life. We thoroughly enjoyed our conversation and you will too.

We Get to Know writer and entrepreneur Courtney Adamo.

We were thrilled to be chatting with Courtney on the podcast today. At first glance it's safe to say we all gush a little over the life Courtney has cultivated for her family in Byron Bay, Australia. It's the picture many of us would all paint for our lives if the stars aligned, but her life is no accident, along with her husband, they have been thoughtful to make choices and live the life that suits them best. I'm just happy we get to follow along.

Courtney is the co-founder behind the successful international lifestyle website Babyccino. It's a website offering modern moms a curated place to find all the best online boutiques in one place with loads of great blog content as well. Courtney writes about her life and family travels on her blog SomewhereSlower.com. Additionally, she has co-authored the book 9-Months: A Month to Month Guide to Pregnancy for the Family to Share and has a large and ever increasing following on Instagram. Most importantly, Courtney is the wife to Michael and the mother of their 5 beautiful children. She's on a constant pursuit of truth and inspires us to live a simpler more profound life.

In this episode she tells the story of living in London for 12 years where she welcomed 4 of her 5 children but longed for a slower paced life and something different. After a few solid nudges to Michael, they decided to take a gap year traveling the globe. She tells how this ultimately lead to their permanent relocation to Byron Bay, Australia that not only allows for that slower paced life but also gives them the beach access to live out their new family passion, surfing. As passionate as Courtney is about experiencing the amazing things this world has to offer, she is more interested in slowing down her and her family's days, enjoying their time together, being more present, listening, really listening, to each other, and emerging with a happiness and fulfillment that will hopefully influence the rest of their lives. Listen in and enjoy!
