Featuring Kelly Calabria, enterprising founder of Kelly’s Jelly.
Join us for an uplifting and empowering morning as we sit down with Kelly Calabria—entrepreneur, trailblazer, and joy-filled business leader—for an intimate conversation about her inspiring journey.

As a businesswoman, wife, and mother, she has embraced every challenge and opportunity with curiosity, grace, and a commitment to lifting others up along the way—including her young daughters.

Leave with new tools, fresh ideas, and renewed motivation
We can’t wait to see you there!

ABOUT OUR HOST
Grace Clark - Hibbs | Nutrition With Grace
Grace is a registered dietitian, speaker, media and brand consultant, and writer who specializes in addressing digestive and hormonal issues from a holistic and functional health perspective. She's passionate about helping women go from feeling overwhelmed, exhausted and like their symptoms rule their life to finding their vitality again in a body they feel comfortable and confident in.
It is her belief that a healthy gut is a healthy body, which is why she loves helping others sort through all the nutrition mis- and disinformation out there through interactive speaking engagements, media interviews, and group coaching. In addition to her business, Grace also enjoys serving her community and is the current Communications Director for the Oregon chapter of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.
When she's not working, Grace and her husband love eating their way around the world, meeting new people and experiencing new cultures everywhere they go. But when they're at home in Oregon, there's nothing better than sitting on the couch in front of the fire, snuggling their orange tabby, Tony.
