That’s Hilda Labrada Gore shown above. I’ve been listening to the podcast she does for the Weston A. Price Foundation for years, ever since it started when I lived in southern AZ. It’s called The Wise Traditions podcast, over here. She feels like an old girlfriend, one of my Veggie Gals, even though we have never met. Definitely a kindred spirit. That’s why I am so excited to hear that she got to be at the RFK Jr. confirmation hearing for one day for his nomination for Trump’s Secretary of Health and Human Services.

Listen below and enjoy. I love that she says so many women in the crunchy mom influencer space were there, like Zen Honeycutt and the lady beyond the 1K hours outside podcast, Ginny Yurich. She says she definitely felt such a power of love emanating from these people to support RFK Jr. as they watched. Go MAHA MAMAs go!

I agree with one of the hosts that government can’t make us healthy. Health is largely based on personal choice, and it is cultivated not injected. Health is something that moms, more than any other people, can bring about, not the government. That’s part of the role of mother, as nurturer. Government’s job is stay out of our health choices and not have laws that limit our options for health and health care. Now that RFK Jr. has been confirmed, I hope he reigns in the government’s reach regarding health instead of extending it.

He is definitely a humble man. I love that he said that for decades he has prayed daily that God would use him to help improve the health of children. He has done that with the Children’s Health Defense Fund that he started (I totally recommend you get on their email list). Now as HHS Secretary he can continue this mission. I also love that he has gained humility from his long-ago years as a drug addict. He said publicly that he goes to AA meetings every day to stay sober. That’s the humility we need in leaders.

Want to hear his story? Watch below and hear his journey towards faith in God. His story is an amazing testimony of God showing up in his life in what some people call synchronicity or coincidence.
