We sat down with her to bring you a preview of the material she will be sharing as well as her top tips for all-day energy that you can start incorporating right now.

Clean Eating: Have you always been a bundle of energy?

JESSE LANE: Not always. I was a civil engineer before embracing holistic nutrition. I went to work as an engineer during the day and then studied nutrition at night. Upon graduating, I worked with clients in the evenings and on weekends. After four years of that, I was exhausted and my energy was zapped. I would wake up every day wishing I could sleep another three hours. I was foggy and had trouble concentrating. I had to take a step back and treat myself the same way I would treat one of my clients: I started eating energizing foods and making the lifestyle changes required to get my energy levels back. And now I’m excited to show you how you can live every day with boundless energy like me.
