Welcome back to The Feminine Profiles podcast! Today, I am in conversation with Jenelle Manzi. Jenelle is a member of the New York City ballet and the founder of Get Golden. She spent years as a professional dancer sidelined with injuries and food allergies and could never find a healthy snack that gave her the energy she needed so she decided to create her own products in her kitchen and get golden was born. In today’s conversation, we discuss: What the early days in the NYC Ballet looked like, from her daily schedule of training days, school and long commutes Her  first career injury and the path that led her down. Discovering food allergies and sensitivities and how that led her to take her health into her own hands, start a blog and get crafting in the kitchen How slowing down allows her to catch mistakes more quickly, and pivot in business, and stay focused on her mission How she has taken a softer approach to self-care, and cultivating joy and self-love Body image, clean ingredients and so much more! I Hope you enjoy this conversation. Xo, Brooke
