Explanations of how dietary change can help long term conditions is something she tries to put at the very centre of consultations with curious patients. She also does plant-based teaching for trainee GPs and colleagues. Like the rest of us she is learning everyday about food and health, and most importantly the barriers to change for individuals. 

Dr Lund is a practising General Practitioner ( Family Medicine Physician) with over 20 years’ experience of working in the NHS. She is a GP trainer and medical educator at Imperial College in London, UK.

Today, I am joined by Kathy Davis of VegInspired. Kathy is a plant-based lifestyle and mindset coach, a Meal Planning Expert, the CEO of VegInspired, and the author of three cookbooks: The 30-Minute Whole-Food Plant-Based Cookbook, The Super Easy Plant-Based Cookbook, and The Budget-Friendly, Plant-Based Diet Cookbook, and a co-author of one personal development book: Absolute Vision. Kathy is on a mission to educate, inspire, and empower others about the power of plant-based eating in living thriving and successful lives. She operates on two primary mottos: 1) Eat More Plants and 2) Intention over Perfection.

Kathy has been eating and creating vegan meals for more than nine years. Over the past 4 years, she shifted her daily habits to follow a whole-food, plant-based lifestyle. She experienced amazing results: renewed energy, 50-pound weight loss and maintenance, a newfound sense of joy, and a healthier mind and body! One tool that she used consistently to make plant-based eating a sustainable way of living was meal planning. She founded the Meal Plan Accountability Club to help others become efficient and effective meal planners.

Kathy is dedicated to providing women (and men) with the resources to Eat More Plants. She is eager to guide others on their journey so that they can make a more significant impact in the world.

Fun fact: Kathy and her husband, John, are living their plant-based dream while simultaneously traveling the United States in an RV with their cats. They've been to 33 states and 24 national parks so far and have a goal to visit all the US national parks!

In our chat we cover Kathy’s vegan journey, RV living, meal planning, her coaching programs, diet culture, human design, and more…oh, and hummus of course too!

Today, I am joined by Lisa Rimmert of On the Nose. Lisa is a standup comedian and writer based in the Seattle area. In 2021, she launched her company, On The Nose, LLC, through which she helps to change the world through effective and humane communication. Current and past clients have included Beyond Carnism, Farm Forward, Woodstock Farm Sanctuary, and Volunteers of America. Lisa published her first book, a memoir, in 2022. Titled Stay: My Forever Friendship with an Aging Dog, it earned her a prestigious award for Best First Book from the Independent Book Publishers Association. She's currently working on a second dog-related memoir. When she's not writing, Lisa can be found telling jokes to audiences at bars and clubs around Seattle and beyond. A lifelong animal advocate, the topic of animals and their well-being serves as a through line connecting all of Lisa's projects.

Lisa and I became fast friends, which I think will be pretty clear as you listen to this episode. The only thing stopping us from getting up to regular shenanigans is the fact that we live on opposite sides of the country. 

I had the pleasure of reading her book Stay after Lisa and I recorded this episode so I’ll share my thoughts now. Buy the book, if you’ve ever loved a non-human animal you’ll find parts of yourself in this book. It brought me back to moments with my senior cat Cookie, that first moment you realize they’re a senior and each moment after. Lisa so beautifully captures her experience and friendship with beloved Dakota. It’s a beautiful and poignant tale I feel lucky to have read.

Today, I am joined by Dr. Elisa Beth Haransky-Beck of Enlivening Consciousness. Dr. Elisa has been a Holistic Eye doctor specializing in optometric vision and movement therapy as well as natural vision improvement since 1987. Elisa has practiced raw living plant-based foodism on and off since 2012 and the Spiritual Nutrition lifestyle since 2015. One of Elisa’s volunteer passions is with Vegan Spirituality-Southwest PA which she founded in early 2019. She teaches EmbodyVision Yoga on Zoom to elders from around the world and is a Spiritual Nutrition counselor with a Master’s degree in Spiritual Nutrition.

This is a great conversation around eye health, some surprising connections between eye health and movement (surprising for me, anyway!), and of course, Elisa’s book. Elisa guides us through a brief meditation, don't worry, we tell you when it starts so if you’re driving you may want to skip this section and come back to it once you’re stationary.

Today, I am joined by Adam Kelly of Green Edge Health. Adam offers diet-focused life coaching, empowering his clients to build a healthy relationship with food and use it as a tool to thrive, rather than cope. Adam himself struggled with emotional eating or using food to cope with the internal and external struggles in his life. He’d fall into negative habits and constantly feel trapped in a cycle of unhealthy eating that always made life that much harder. That was until he studied the power of life coaching and mindset work. He discovered that the unavoidable routine of food could be harnessed to seek out and resolve difficulties in his life that were holding him back. The strategies he learned turned his life around for good and he’s never felt stronger or healthier and now it’s his life's mission is to pass this on to to his clients and you, the listener. Too many of us struggle with food in one way or another and it feels like an overwhelming nightmare that affects every area of our lives. It doesn't need to be this way and Adam has the solution for you.

Adam walks us through how powerful our mindset is, how as mentioned in his bio, food can be a tool to thrive, why it matters to pay attention to the food messages you receive from those you love and the corporations who want you to buy their food, why some foods are crazy addictive, and more!

The love for story-telling runs through this episode as we both nerd-out about it, its so good. 

We discuss finding your origin or journey story, different types of story-telling, how story-telling can make even the most boring things interesting, and knowing when to not tell a story.

Some takeaways:

• Uncover your origin story

• Collect your customers stories

• Write your brand story

During this period, he blazed the trail for high speed signal processing chips and technologies for High Definition Television, real-time video communications and the transformation of early analog internet connections to more robust digital connections, while accelerating their speeds ten-fold. Today, over a billion internet connections deploy the communications protocol that he designed. He is the author of 22 peer-reviewed technical papers, 50 standards contributions, 10 US patents and 3 Canadian patents.

In 2006, he switched careers and became deeply immersed, full time, in solving the environmental crises affecting humanity. Dr. Rao is the author of four books, Carbon Dharma: The Occupation of Butterflies, Carbon Yoga: The Vegan Metamorphosis, Animal Agriculture is Immoral and The Pinky Promise, and an Executive Producer of several documentaries, The Human Experiment (2013), Cowspiracy: The Sustainability Secret (2014), What The Health (2017), A Prayer for Compassion (2019), They’re Trying to Kill Us (2021), The End of Medicine (2022), The Land of Ahimsa (2022), Animals – A Parallel History (est. 2023) and Milked (2022). His work is featured in the award winning film, Countdown to Year Zero produced by Jane Velez-Mitchell.

Dr. Rao is a Human, Earth and Animal Liberation (HEAL) activist, husband, dad and since 2010, a star-struck grandfather. He has promised his granddaughter, Kimaya Rainy Rao, that the world will be largely Vegan before she turns 16 in 2026, so that people will stop eating her relatives, the animals. He has faith that humanity will transform to keep his pinky promise to Kimaya, not just for ethical reasons, but also out of sheer ecological necessity. Along with Kimaya, Dr. Rao was the co-recipient of the inaugural Homo Ahimsa award from the Interfaith Vegan Coalition in 2021. He has formally taken the Ubuntu pledge to become Homo Ahimsa. Read the remainder of Dr. Rao's bio here: https://climatehealers.org/sailesh-rao/

Today, I am joined by the one and only, Philosopher Peter Singer. Recently retired from his role as Ira W. DeCamp Professor of Bioethics in the University Center for Human Values at Princeton University, (though when this episode was recorded he was teaching his final semester) Peter is often referred to as the “Father of the modern animal rights movement.” Journalists tagged him as the “world’s most influential living philosopher.” Peter believes this is attributed to the work within ethical treatment of animals and of the influence that his writing has had on development of effective altruism. When I mentioned to a friend that I would interviewing Peter, they said to me “that guy is pretty controversial” (would he be a philosopher if he wasn’t?) Peter attributes statements like this to his controversial critique of the sanctity of life ethics in bioethics. He is the author of Animal Liberation and the updated Animal Liberation Now and several other books on rights, Effective Altruism, and more.

Today, I am joined by Michael Schwarz, Founder and CEO of Treeline Cheese. Michael grew up in South Africa, in a family of prominent opponents to the apartheid regime. It is there that he developed his sense of justice and fair play for all. He had always enjoyed fine European cheeses but when he found out just how cruel the production of dairy products is, he decided that he had to try and change things. So he gave up dairy and his 25 year career as an intellectual property lawyer and turned his attention to making vegan cheese. Treeline was born in his kitchen over a decade ago. Michael started selling his new cheese door to door, trying to convince stores to take a chance on what was then an unknown product. Treeline soon became a favorite at vegan markets and festivals. Treeline cheese is now available in thousands of stores nationwide, including Whole Foods, Sprouts, Wegmans and many independents. It was recently named best vegan cheese by tastingtable.com, thedailymeal.com and USA Today (of which I was one of the experts on the panel who created the list readers voted on!).

Today, I am joined by Marie Dore, of Your Vegan VA. Marie, VLCE (Vegan Lifestyle Coach & Educator)) is a Vegan Virtual Assistant with a passion for travel. She believes that anything is possible if you have the right attitude and is always looking for ways to empower her clients to reach their highest potential.

Marie travelled the world solo in 2016-17, exploring New Zealand, Australia, Asia and Europe. After meeting her partner on this life-changing trip, she moved to Germany in 2019 and experienced many shifts that led her to start her own virtual assistance business. Vegan since 2020 and living between Canada and Germany, she’s creating a life of freedom for herself while helping the vegan movement the best she can. 

Marie and I get into the complexity of being human, what that means when going vegan, tips and tricks she learned on her travels, leading by example, and truly taking care of your whole self. Oh, and wait until you hear about Marie’s favorite hummus! (and another shout out by me to my beloved Cedar's Foods Hummus!)

Today, I am joined by Angélica Williams a vegan luxury hospitality consultant and founder of Green Luxury Living™. Angélica is passionate about curating unique experiences that are kind to fellow humans, animals, and the planet.

What started out as a blog about green living in style, flourished into consulting services for the hospitality industry, offering tailored solutions to elevate the experience of the contemporary guest. 

As an avid traveler and vegan foodie, Angélica found herself struggling to find vegan offerings and experiences for herself and her family to enjoy; either the experience would fall short due to lack of awareness from staff, or was simply unavailable. It was disappointing and frustrating, especially when she knew there was a simple way to create such experiences, if only these establishments knew how and what exactly the modern guest is looking for. 

As a vegan luxury hospitality consultant, Angélica combines her experience in conference and event planning with her passion and expertise in creating curated gatherings, to help her clients achieve their goals of attracting, retaining and wowing their plant-based, vegan and allergy-conscious guests.

Whether it’s reviewing menus and wine lists, providing kitchen and service training to staff in hotels, resorts and dining establishments, or evaluating meetings, events and conference offerings, Angélica oversees all aspects of the contemporary guest’s experience to ensure it meets (and exceeds) their expectations.

Angélica holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration and Marketing, and she is trained in High Impact Hospitality Consulting™.

As part of Green Luxury Living's commitment to creating a more sustainable world, services encompass waste reduction techniques and eco-friendly products as much as possible. Green Luxury Living also donates 1 tree to Trees for the Future with each client project.

Angélica’s services are offered online, or locally in Jacksonville, Florida, USA, and surrounding areas.

Today, I am joined by Natasha and Ed Tatton of BReD, a vegan bakery in Whistler, B.C. Canada.  Ed is a professional chef who attended culinary college and worked in high-end kitchens in the UK, Australia, New Zealand and Canada, but now specializes in making organic naturally leavened sourdough. As co-owner of BReD–Organic Sourdough with his wife Natasha, Ed leads a small bakery team, making and baking bread, pizza dough, and other small baked goods. These days, Ed’s food is compassionately 100% plant-based, a movement he is passionately excited to be part of and help grow for the benefit of people, the planet, and animals.  

Natasha is an English teacher turned bakery manager, animal rights advocate and co-founder of BReD–(along with Ed). In her life before BReD, Natasha taught English all over the world and now leads a small front-of-house team of cashiers and baristas. Taking on various food and beverage roles nurtured her desire to establish a vegan eatery to provide more compassionate food choices. If you love to eat, you are in for a treat, the way Natasha and Ed talk about food will leave you inspired to explore new (and possibly even more compassionate) ways to feed and nourish yourself.

Today, I am joined by coach, Alyssa Almond of Rooted Rise. Alyssa began her career with Teach For America as a 3rd grade bilingual teacher in Washington Heights, NYC. Her fascination with languages and language learning called her to specialize in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL). She helped immigrants acquire the language skills needed to succeed in the US. Alyssa worked both as a middle school ESOL teacher and as a program administrator in Adult Basic Education.  

But, her veganism reminded her that she’s not just about humans.  

So, in 2017, after some intensive coaching, Alyssa gathered her courage and left her full-time job in education.  

This leap landed her at a farmed animal sanctuary and The Last Pig. Following her passion, talent, and empathetic nature led her to create the perfect role for herself.  As a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach (CPCC), she gets to help animals by supporting the humans who serve them! 

In this episode, Alyssa and I get into the philosophy of veganism and discuss a specific idea called Effective Altruism, we also discuss how we each approach spreading the vegan message, the cats with whom we live, farmed animal sanctuaries, Alyssa’s coaching practice, and of course hummus.

Final episode of Season 3! Listen through the end so you don't miss my thank you message to my listeners and my guests. Thank you all so much!!I'll be back with Season 4 later this year!

Today, I am joined by Food Inclusivity Mentor and Expert, Heather Landex. Heather has worked in hospitality, restaurants & food businesses for 20 years, qualified in Environmental Health & specialized in food safety for 10 years. She has advised & trained 1000s of food professionals in several countries, auditing/inspecting restaurants & hotels. The highlights of her career include the 2012 Olympics, Michelin-starred restaurants & some of the world's biggest franchises.

Vegan since early 2019 & around 6 months later suffered a spontaneous, serious allergic reaction in a hotel on a work trip. Let's just say she has naturally specialized in food inclusivity.

Most businesses are already compliant in a food safety sense but they do not recognize how many people with dietary preferences are their potential customers and they are turning them away. There's 20-40% of the population left out of eating out. Heather mentors food & hospitality professionals to attract & serve more customers, reduce risk & liability & ultimately earn more money.

In addition to a great discussion on food allergens and how patrons can be safe when dining out as well as the efforts restaurants and hotels can make to be more inclusive, Heather and I also discuss our mutual love for public speaking and Toastmasters, which we both believe has the ability to help make the vegan movement louder and more effective.

First, thank you. Thank you for listening, for subscribing, for sharing episodes you find meaningful. For taking a chance on a lady who loves to talk about veganism. I am excited to see where the next 50 episodes lead me and I am so honored to have you along for the ride. 

Today, I am joined by my husband, JP Winters. I wanted to do something a little different and special for episode 50 so I sat down with JP to talk about the podcast, veganism, TV shows, Reese’s Peanut butter cups and pop tarts, relationships, the journey of going vegan, what does it mean to be manly, Mother’s Day, and some other things. We have a good time with this one, I’m sure you will too.

Today’s podcast is just me and it's a quick but powerful one. I wanted to talk about my dream last night which reminded me of the quote I partially included in the title of this episode. The full quote from Lily Tomlin is I always thought somebody should do something about that, then I realized, I am somebody.”

By the way, can you believe this is Episode 49!! How wild is that?! If today’s episode is number 49, that means that next week is episode 50! Wow, 50 episodes. That feels pretty amazing so I think we need to do something special. If you have a favorite episode or moment, or something in one of episodes helped you make a change in your life, or, you just want to say hi and congratulate me on sticking with it, please send your note to me at didyoubringthehummus@gmail.com with “podcast moment” in the title. I’ll read them out at the top of next week’s episode.

Today, I am joined by the incredible Chef Adam Sobel, creator of Cinnamon Snail, the food truck phenomenon that took NY/NJ and the world by storm from 2010 to 2020. Before Adam knew it, Cinnamon Snail had received a cult-like status, with people anxiously awaiting the location update on Twitter then standing in lines around  a New York City block to get a signature sandwich and of course, donuts! By 2014 The Cinnamon Snail was the #1 highest-rated place of any kind to eat in NYC and the #4 highest-ranked restaurant in the entire USA on yelp.com. After closing the food truck and restaurants in 2020, Adam began offering online classes and has expanded that to a membership (you can still get one off classes too), and has begun sharing recipes on his blog. I found Adam’s energy to be totally infectious so, I’ll apologize in advance for all of the laughing (just kidding, who would ever apologize for laughing…more of a warning, I guess. You’re about to have a really good time!

Today, I am joined by musician Martin Ahlquist of Vystopia. Martin lives in Sweden, loves getting out in nature, spending time with friends and family, and standing up for animals. Whether through outreach with other activists or through his music, Martin follows his heart and shares what matters to him most. It also motivated him to donate proceeds from his animal rights songs to different animal rights charities. He explains more in this episode. Martin is such a kind soul and we had a really lovely, honest conversation. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it as much as I did.
