RACHEL WERNER AND HER MANY TALENTS

Madison BookBeat

In this edition of Madison Book Beat, host Lisa Malawski talks with Rachel Werner

about her children’s book, Moving and Grooving to Fillmore’s Beat and her cookbook,

Macro Cooking Made Simple.

Rachel is a model, an author, a poet, a book reviewer, the founder of The Little Book

Project, a freelance writer and digital medical consultant, teaching artist, certified holistic

nutritionist, certified yoga instructor and mindfulness practitioner. Rachel has a daughter

named Phoebe and a dog named Butter.

Moving and Grooving to Fillmore’s Beat is a beautiful story about the historical Fillmore

District in San Francisco, CA. It teaches children about the Fillmore District’s creative

legacy and names some of the famous artists at the Fillmore such as Carlos Santana

and Maya Angelou.

Macro Cooking Made Simple has fifty plus recipes for clean eating and healthy living.

Rachel has always had a love-hate relationship with food. Rachel was diagnosed with

an eating disorder at the age of 19. Exploring the creative process of eating was a

complete game changer for Rachel in regard to her health and her career.

In this episode, Rachel shares two of her poems and reads one of her daughter’s

poems.

Lisa thanks Rachel for sharing her many talents, and for always being curious in all

things.
