About her talk:
Giddy up and yeehaw! Two-time breast cancer survivor Kayle Martin shares her healthy approach to healing by adopting a 100% raw food plant-based diet while surrounding herself with all things positive. A cowgirl from the time she was three, learn how Kayle’s zest for life kept her moving forward and how it let her inner cowgirl shine.
Bio:
Once a cowgirl, always a cowgirl!
Kayle Martin grew up in Grass Valley in the heart of Northern California’s Gold Country, romping through wildflowers, climbing trees, swimming in creeks, riding horses and caring for a slew of animals on a five-acre farm with her single mom.
A lover of nature and animals for as long as she can remember, Kayle became a vegetarian in the 6th grade after her beloved cow, Cupcake, ended up on her dinner plate.
Years later, after being diagnosed with breast cancer at the ripe young age of thirty, Kayle made the transition from a vegetarian to a vegan diet. She has been living an animal-free lifestyle for nearly five years and is totally cancer free!
She shares her cancer story with others at conferences and on radio programs, is working on her first book, and was recently featured as the “Survivor Story” in Keep A Breast’s magazine.
Kayle’s free time is spent juicing greens, counseling newly diagnosed breast cancer patients at her local hospital, seeking out new vegan restaurants, blogging and living a life full of F-U-N!
