Nutrition & Self-Care Panel Discussion

Lauren Furgiuele, MS, RDN, LDN
Lauren Furgiuele, MS, RDN, LDN is the registered dietitian behind Planting Roots Nutrition. Lauren focuses on women’s health and offers 1-on-1 nutrition counseling to help clients have regular, easier menstrual cycles and bloat-free guts. She takes a root cause approach and works collaboratively with her clients to identify sustainable changes tailored to their body’s individual needs. Lauren understands that each journey is different and finds joy in exploring the intricacies of her client’s health to help them get where they hope to be. She understands that nutrition is complicated and confusing, and loves guiding her clients in feeling more in tune with their own intuition and feeling more confident in their food choices. Lauren uses many tools in her practice, including some functional tests such as the GI Map stool test, DUTCH, and a hair tissue mineral analysis. When not working, Lauren loves staying active with a whole host of physical activities, hanging out in nature, cooking up fun meals in the kitchen, and singing in her choir each week.
Marlee James
Marlee James is the Founder of Reviving Roots Therapy & Wellness, a holistic mental health and wellness space centering Black wellness. She is a mental health therapist, certified trauma professional and consultant with a focus around intergenerational trauma, social justice and relational cultural work. During her time in grad school, she studied the impact of race and culture on mental health at the Institute for the Study and Promotion of Race and Culture (ISPRC) at Boston College. She founded Reviving Roots after working for a series of practices that she felt valued Black folks in words and not in action. So as soon as she was fully licensed, she filed for her LLC.
