Tracy Peterson is a veteran teacher who along with her former student, Sloane LeFrance, wrote Cartwheels Finding Your Special Kind of Smart, a lively look at a real student who would rather do cartwheels than read because reading frustrates her.

Episode 35. How to Feed Your Ninjas.

Tracy Johnson, the author of How to Feed Your Ninjas, is today’s guest. Her journey began 40 years ago when she was diagnosed with Chron’s Disease. She discovered exercise and a healthy diet eased her symptoms, and for 20 years she has been symptom-free without medication. Her brother’s diagnosis with a cancer that would not respond to conventional treatment inspired Tracy to research immunotherapy. Grief-stricken with her brother’s refusal to consider changing his diet and his subsequent death, Tracy turned her attention to sharing her message with children. In addition, she created a nonprofit organization, the by KARRI Project, to create a solid foundation for the physical and emotional health of our future…starting with the very young.
