In this episode, I challenge you to step out of your comfort zone: a mini green juice fast. I discuss the potential benefits, how it might help you re-evaluate your relationship with food, and how it could be the jumpstart you need for a healthier lifestyle.
If you decide to try the Dirty Glow Juice Fast or have already done it, join the private Facebook group and share your experience using the hashtag #DirtyGlow. I love connecting with the community and hearing your feedback.
I’ve heard so many Dirties absolutely RAVING about how much they are enjoying drinking kale, cucumbers, and parsley. These are my kinda people! So listen up and let’s get glowing.

In this episode, I chat with Dr. Monica Salas, a board-certified family and lifestyle medicine physician dedicated to helping her patients make small, manageable changes to live better, longer.
She integrates whole food plant based nutrition for her patients, focusing on the prevention, treatment, and sometimes reversal of chronic diseases. In this episode, she answers questions from our Dirty community.

Tune into this special bonus episode where Brittany from Team Dirty takes the host seat and interviews me about my nine-year sobriety journey. We talked about my ah-ha moment leading up to June 14, 2015, which empowered me to quit drinking and smoking.
🎵 Hums happy (sober) birthday to me, happy (sober) birthday to me… 🎵
I share my three favorite tools I found most helpful to make it in early sobriety, how to approach someone who might want to quit drinking, and why owning your choice is so, so important.
Whether you’re considering quitting alcohol or someone you love is struggling with drinking, this episode is for you.

In this episode, I tell you about a friend of mine who went plant based years ago and experienced massive positive changes. Eventually, she fell off the plant based train and has been eating more processed foods and she feels like crap.
Listen up to hear what I lovingly told my friend. I’ll also tell you about my experience with my recent three-day juice fast.

Registration for the 2024 Plant Fueled Reset is now open!
This is a chance to reset your taste buds, your cravings and your body so that you feel light, energized, and healthy, all while enjoying yummy plant based food that you’ll be cooking!
We start on January 3rd and it runs until February 10th, 2024. We’ll kick things off with a mini three-day juice fast to create the perfect launch pad for the rest of the Reset.
I recorded today’s episode while testing the juice fast. You’ll notice that at the top of the episode I said “speakers” instead of “mic” and I didn’t notice until I listened to it - ha! The mental clarity that comes with juice fasting sets in for me on day three :)
In this episode I talk about my experiences fasting and why I vomited after my last fast and how I learned the hard way about easing into and coming off from fasts. I also talk about the 2024 Reset and why everyone should join!

I don’t eat 100% whole food plant based all of the time, and I’ve yet to come across anyone who does. Sure, I was raised vegetarian and had a childhood fondness for millet that rivals most kids' love for Fruity Pebbles, but that doesn’t mean I’m not human.
I savor chocolate, vegan butter, and even fried tofu sometimes. How do I do this without beating myself up about not being perfect?
I know that perfection doesn’t exist and I stay out of the all-or-nothing mindset.
The all-or-nothing mindset usually leads to a downward spiral ending with a box of donuts and letting your kale die a slow, sad death in the fridge.
Tune into this episode and learn how to stay out of the all-or-nothing mindset, give yourself grace, embrace your humanness, and enjoy your plant fueled life on your terms.

Here’s a powerful question to ponder:
If you weren’t spending time and energy on being in the cycle of addictive sugar cravings, where and how would you spend that newly freed up energy? We don’t realize it, but it takes a great deal of energy to be hooked on something. If you could break free, where could that energy be directed?
Sugar is addictive and can be more challenging to quit than alcohol (#AskMeHowIKnow). Join my Sugar Is Not the Boss masterclass, where I’ll teach you effective strategies to release sugar’s sticky grip, allowing you to reclaim your energy and focus on what truly matters most to you.
Tune into this episode, where I talk more about not-so-sweet sugar addiction and give you a coupon for 50% off my upcoming Masterclass.

Join me as I chat with Rabbi Jonathan Bernhard from the Jewish Initiative for Animals (JIFA), who has made it his life’s work to support the Jewish community in aligning their food choices with values the Jewish tradition articulates.
Jonathan is keen on promoting the following message: as a community, it’s time to reckon with the impacts of our food choices–on farmed animals, people, and the planet–and ask: is this way of farming and eating truly kosher?
Let’s find out more about what makes something truly kosher.
