 ATOR:\n\nMaria Nikolakakou\, MSc Candidate in Human Nutrition and Dietetic
 s\n\n'I was born in Athens\, Greece. I did my B.Sc. in Nutritional Science
 s in Greece and then decided to do my M.Sc. in Human Nutrition and Dieteti
 cs at 黑料社 so I moved to Montreal in 2015. While pursuing my 
 graduate studies\, I discovered that studying nutrition alone was limiting
  my potential of helping people. I took a gap year and travelled to Latin 
 America\, took a life coaching certification and I was also trained in 2 e
 nergy healing methods. It dawned on me that health is not only about physi
 cal health\, but also mental\, emotional and spiritual. My business was cr
 eated when I realized the need of a more holistic approach to health and w
 ellness by combining all 3 assets - nutrition\, life coaching and energy h
 ealing. My mission is to help people overcome their limiting mindset in or
 der to achieve their goals and live a healthy life.'\n\nPANELISTS:\n\nJord
