4 Natural Nutmeg July/August 2021 S
ummer! My favorite time of year. This summer feels even more special because we are traveling again and there are an amazing number of events happening, along with new restaurants, food
truck parks , and breweries opening right here in Connecticut. I just love everything about it —warmer weather, fresh fruits and veggies, farm-to- table dinners, festivals, and time spent on the beach or at a lake. I’m even growing my own lettuce and tomatoes on my deck!
2021 is bringing a ton of exciting changes to our media platform. I’m thrilled to announce I’ll be launching my own internet radio show this summer as part of the Transformation Talk Radio (TTR) network. TTR is a global positive talk radio and media network that I am honored to be collaborating with, and I’ll be featuring many of our own Natural Nutmeg writers and local practitioners on my show whose voices need to be heard. My show will be weekly on Thursdays at 11am. Visit www.
naturalnutmeg.com to sign up for notifications to discover show topics and the fascinating guests I’ll be interviewing. TTR is an internationally syndicated show and broadcast globally on hundreds of AM/FM/ digital radio stations. I’m so excited to be broadening our audience globally.
Our annual reader-nominated 10Best Awards are right around the corner .
They have been a huge hit , with thousands of readers voting last year! It brought a ton of awareness for holistic businesses and we received amazing feedback from the winners and readers. Many business owners in catego- ries like natural product companies, spas, and farm-to-table restaurants said they just discovered the magazine and didn’t realize their customers were avid readers and fans. As a Natural Nutmeg reader, you will have the opportunity to nominate your favorite holistic practitioner or business in 20 categories listed on the full-page ad on the inside back cover. Nominations will take place between Aug. 15 and Sept. 15 through an online survey tool—you can fi nd the link in the ad. Winners will be announced in late September , and we will be showcasing the 10BEST in each category in a special additional issue released in December 2021.
I’m delighted to welcome three new members to the Natural Nutmeg/ Essential Naples team: Lori Emelander, Editor; Dr. Sonia Manganello, Marketing Director; and Rob DeSalle, National Sales Director. I am so grateful for this incredible team and each of them brings a wealth of experience and amazing energy to our growing media group.
Last but not least: I’m hoping some of you will join me in South Dakota, July 21–25 , at the annual FreedomFest 2021 Summit. FreedomFest is an intense three and a half days, and it’s different from any conference you have ever attended. Where else can you attend yoga in the morning, listen to world- renowned speakers on fi nance or geopolitics after breakfast, choose from among a dozen breakout sessions with the world’s brightest thought leaders in the afternoon, watch a movie (and meet the director) during the day, and judge the contestants in an Entrepreneurs’ Competition? Check out my article “FreedomFest 2021” for more information , and visit
www.freedomfest.com and enter code Nutmeg50 for $50 off the registration. I’ll be speaking about "The New Psychology of Aging: Living Younger." There are incredible stud- ies being published now about the ability to reverse aging in humans through gene therapy, epigenetic cell reprogramming, inexpensive stem cell treatment, and regenerative medicine techniques like NAD supplementation. I am beyond excited to be speaking at this event and synthesizing all this great information for attendees. Hope to see you there!
Wishing you health and happiness , Dr. Diane Hayden, PhD
