## Resource

Meet Sabrina Rudin, founder of Spring Cafe Aspen and author of the new cookbook Healthy With a Side of Happy. Raised in a home where food came first, Sabrina grew up with a deep understanding of natural foods, nourishment, and the connection between what we eat and how we feel. In this episode, Sabrina chats with Elizabeth about her early exposure to holistic living, how a season teaching snowboarding in Aspen eventually led her to open Spring Cafe, and what it has taken to build a restaurant that has become a beloved community staple. She also shares the story behind her cookbook, why she believes healthy food should feel abundant and joyful, and how staying connected to your why can open doors you never expected.
