When her father developed Type 2 diabetes, eight-year-old Haile Thomas began a journey that would change her family’s dietary habits, improve her dad’s health, and radically transform her life. Now a social entrepreneur, speaker, and wellness + compassion activist, she is an advocate for conscious living who promotes resilience, positivity, and a healthy, nourishing lifestyle to young people everywhere.
