Darya Pino: my one thing is…

Darya is a scientist, San Francisco foodie and founder of Summer Tomato. She is also a contributor at The Huffington Post.

Q: There’s a saying, to pick one thing and do it well. What’s your one thing?

Darya: Health is the foundation of life. I live a healthy lifestyle so I can enjoy all the wonderful things in the world that I encounter each day.

Q: What do you like about what you do?

Darya: There is a misconception that living healthy isn’t as fun as living unhealthy, but I feel exactly the opposite. My food and physical activity are some of my very favorite things in life, and anyone who knows me has seen how much joy I get from them. I certainly do my share of less-than-healthy activities, because my number one priority is always enjoyment and happiness. But what I really love about my healthstyle is how much fulfillment it brings to my life.

Q: Anything else you’d like to add?

Darya: Finding your healthstyle is a process, but it should be a joyful one. Focus on finding foods and activities you love, and health will follow.
