Welcome back to the Primal Blueprint Podcast! Today, we are thrilled to have Autumn Smith, the co-founder of Paleo Valley and Wild Pastures, with us.

Her journey into health and wellness began with her own health struggles, and today, she shares her experiences and insights that led to the creation of her innovative products.

Autumn's Health Journey

Autumn's health issues began at a young age when she experienced digestive problems, including bloating and pain, which led to a diagnosis of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). This not only affected her digestive health but also took a toll on her skin and mental well-being.

This transformation inspired her to help others achieve wellness through nutrition.
