If you’re looking for fresh, high quality, on the go, motivating workouts that adapt to your lifestyle, I highly recommend Aaptiv.<br> <br> In fact; if you head over to the curator playlist section of Aaptiv, you’ll see a familiar face! I chose 7 of my favorite Aaptiv workouts that you can kind of get a sneak peek into my own routine. Everything from well-rounded mix of intense cardio to restorative serenity; I hope you enjoy it.

Today I’m joined by a lovely, lovely guest. Her name is Allison Schaaf; she is the MS/RD/LD {laughs} food and nutrition culinary expert and founder of Prep Dish. And you’ve heard me talking about Prep Dish for a few weeks now; they’re one of our Fed and Fit podcast sponsors. I am so thrilled to bring her onto the show today so you can learn more about their amazing company and what they have to offer everybody. But to briefly introduce, in case this is maybe you’re first episode; welcome to the party. Prep Dish is a subscription based gluten free and paleo meal plan service. Allison holds a Bachelor’s degree in culinary nutrition from Johnson and Wales University; a Masters in Nutrition Communication from Tufts University, and became a registered dietitian at the New England Medical Center. When she isn’t cooking, Allison fully embraces life in Puerto Rico. She is an avid yogi, and enjoys regular hikes in nearby rainforests. Man; I’m just going to come hang out with you sometime! {laughs} As well as long walks on the beach. I’m definitely coming; I’m inviting myself. Allison is an avid trainer, and draws culinary inspiration from each trip. Thank you so much for coming on the show today; welcome Allison!<br> <br> Allison Schaaf: Thank you so much for having me. I’m excited to talk with you today.<br> <br> Cassy Joy: Yeah, this is going to be so much fun. And I mean, I’m personally using your services. And when I set up wanting to work with companies for the podcast, I really wanted to work with some that I really used and really trusted; so I’m really, really excited to be able to share more of your story and more about Prep Dish with listeners here so they can really hear the full story. But if you don’t mind, telling us a little bit more about yourself, a little bit more about your story, and why you chose to start Prep Dish.<br> <br> Allison Schaaf: Yeah; so after obviously based on my education and training, I’ve always had an interest in food and nutrition. I’ve always been an entrepreneur at heart,
