Timaree Hagenburger is a full-time nutrition professor at Cosumnes River College, a professional speaker working in corporate wellness and is a Certified Exercise Physiologist. She discovered plant-based nutrition a few years ago, and hasn't looked back.
Her work focuses on removing the anxiety and “chore-ness” from cooking. By involving the whole family, by choosing old favorites, by giving options, and by starting simple, she helps her students and readers fall in love with food preparation.
She's the author of the beautiful and eminently practical book, The Foodie Bar Way, which contains templates for 32 different whole food, plant-based bars, as well as sample recipes for each bar.

You CAN Change Other People!
Well, that's what Peter Bregman and I claim in our provocative book of that title.
What we really mean is, you can help the people around you make behavioral changes in their own best interests. If you think you're powerless to help people change, it's because you've been going about it the wrong way.
Discover our straightforward, replicable process here: You Can Change Other People.
