Nancy Lee Bentley, known as “That Gutsy Lady,” is a visionary Wholistic Nourishment Expert, author, speaker, and Founder of The Food Circle®. As one of the grandmothers of the organic movement, her five-decade, out-of-the-box career has taken her from feeding fellow hippies at Woodstock and helping to pioneer the organic food movement to collaborating with leading voices in health, wellness and reconnecting in community.

Today, Nancy brings that lifetime of experience to a deeper question: What really nourishes us? Through her signature message, Finding Real Nourishment in an Overfed, Starving World, she explores how food can become a doorway to greater health, meaning, connection, and wholeness—body, mind, heart, and soul.

With wisdom, humor, compelling stories, and a decidedly gutsy perspective, Nancy invites audiences to reconnect with themselves, each other, and the Earth—and rediscover what really matters.
