Friends Joy & Lorraine discuss a variety of topics that matter to women mid-life and beyond. Thoughtful and engaging conversations covering everything from our overall wellbeing to creativity and travel.
What if the greatest gift you could leave your children and grandchildren wasn’t money—but health?
In this episode of Girlish Gurus, Lorraine Miano and Joy Alford Brand sit down with holistic health advocate Kate Cherry, founder of MissioWay Health & Wellness, to explore how the everyday choices we make at home can have a lasting impact on future generations.
After navigating food allergies and immune challenges within her own family, Kate became passionate about helping other families uncover potential root causes of chronic health struggles when the answers aren’t always obvious. She believes that understanding ingredients, environmental exposures, and daily habits empowers parents and grandparents to create healthier homes—without fear or overwhelm.
Together, we discuss practical, realistic ways to begin making healthier choices and why progress—not perfection—is the key to creating lasting wellness.
In This Episode, We Discuss:
✨ Kate’s personal journey into holistic health
✨ Why she founded MissioWay Health & Wellness
✨ Where to begin if you’re feeling overwhelmed by healthy living
✨ The first three areas to clean up in your pantry and home
✨ Hidden signs your child’s body may be under stress
✨ Common symptoms that could be connected to food or environmental factors
✨ Ingredients every family should learn to recognize
✨ The health habits that create positive ripple effects across generations
✨ How grandparents can positively influence family wellness
✨ Why it’s never too late to build a healthier foundation
Whether you’re a mom, grandmother, caregiver, or simply someone who wants to improve your family’s health, this conversation will leave you feeling empowered to make meaningful changes—one small step at a time.
Remember: Healthy families aren’t built overnight. They’re built through consistent, intentional choices that create a legacy of wellness for generations to come.

Joy Alford-Brand
I’ve been where you are—juggling my career as a practicing attorney while becoming a public speaker and published author. Then at the age of 45, choosing to head down a new path altogether as a creative entrepreneur. So, I also know that midlife can be a powerful time of reinvention. Here, we’re all about real talk, embracing change, and finding new passions that make you feel alive again.
