When I tell people I eat a whole food plant based diet, I often get responses like:
"You must be really dedicated and committed!"
"How do you not eat cheese???"
"That must be really hard!"
I explain why I'm not committed or dedicated to this way of eating in today's episode. I also talk about the shift that makes this way of eating super easy.

If you are trying to eliminate gluten from your life, especially if you are resistant to it, this is an excellent episode for you! I was not a happy camper when I realized my body was better off without gluten, but I soon realized it was much easier than I was making it in my head.
I talk about my experience eliminating gluten and how I share tips on make a whole food plant based diet gluten-free.

Michael Palm, CMO of Complement and No Meat Athlete shares how he reached his low point after 15 years of addiction. He entered treatment and started following a 12-step program. Soon enough, he discovered how alcohol and drugs weren’t his problem but rather his solution. 🤯 His explanation will give you goosebumps. Michael has been sober for over ten years and is loving life enmeshed in wellness and recovery. He keeps it real and explains how just because he’s sober, it doesn’t mean life is easy and how his addiction can manifest in other ways.
This is why my team and Complement (an incredible plant based supplement company I often recommend) have partnered to bring you a 21-Day Dry Challenge. I’ll tell you more in this episode, and you can sign up here to join us!

Whether you’re a fan of faux meat or not, it’s here to stay. In this episode, I offer my perspective on why faux meat can be helpful but not always necessary. Not all faux meats are created equal. There are beef-like burgers that are highly processed, lab-engineered, and designed to look, feel and taste like real meat.
There’s the other end of the spectrum, where faux meat products are minimally processed and made with things like beans, oats, beets, etc. Let’s dive in with this episode!

We have hundreds of recipes in Plant Fueled Life that can replace overly processed faux meats. They have loads of flavor and nutritional value! Here are some of our member favorites:

Life is damn hard sometimes. When we allow ourselves to feel life's pain, we no longer need distractions to avoid the pain. This is a beautiful thing because those distractions often cause unnecessary suffering.
In this episode, I talk about feeling pain in order to avoid suffering, and I give you examples from my life that are currently coming up for me.
You'll find this episode helpful if you tend to drink, eat, scroll, or watch TV when challenges come up instead of feeling through them. So get comfy, and let's work through this thing called life.
