First off, Esther Blum is just bad ass. Sweet, intelligent and gorgeous. And she just released a brand new book that is a must read. Cavewomen Don't Get Fat: The Paleo Chic Diet For Rapid Results
Let me tell you a story about her:
When Keoni and I wrote our book, everyone in the world told us we would never get it published. And, they said, if we did we would have to self-publish. No real New York City publisher is going to publish two unknown dudes with girls names :-).
So Keoni and I are doing an interview for a national clinical grand rounds teleconference to a bunch of doctors and nutritionists. Esther, who had already successfully published a few books, happened to be on that call.
At the end of the interview, she tones in to ask a question. Only thing is it was not a question she wanted to ask, but rather wanted to offer her help. She said, "do you guys have a book, this stuff is incredible." We said, "yes, but it is near impossible to get it published we have been trying." She said, "I am going to help you."
Now, this is the incredible part. Over the next 3 months she spent hours with me and Keoni refining our proposal. Then when it was done she handed it directly to her on agent, one of the best in the biz. And guess what? We got an agent and then a book deal.
Keoni and I are still blown away that someone who did not even know us went out of her way and spent hours and hours on helping us asking for absolutely nothing in return.
Esther is an angel. And has since become one of our dear friends and favorite people. And, she is brilliant and a bad ass author. Get her book. She is the shit :-)
Here is an interview I did with her all about it. Loved talking shop with my fav buddy.
