#38 - How Social Media Influencers Are Shaping Our Food Culture With Jenné Claiborne Feb 14, 2018

Show notes

I recently had the chance to chat with Jenné Claiborne, author of The Sweet Potato Soul Cookbook.

In our conversation, we discuss how she went from being a waitress at a vegan restaurant in NYC to a sought-after YouTuber, Instagrammer and cookbook author who has appeared on the TODAY show and several other national TV shows.

While her blog fame has undoubtedly helped boost Jenne’s own celebrity, she remains incredibly grounded because she is driven by the sole goal of empowering everyone to reclaim their health and help animals and the planet using plant-based food.

I caught up with Matt and Cierra de Gruyter, the Founders of Next Level Burger, while they were in New York for their grand opening and they were kind enough to share their time and insights with me.
