| 170 | Down Nearly 20 lbs, Mentally Sharp and Physically Stronger on a Plant-Based Diet – Interview With Client Arthur [Part 2] | 15 Sep 2026 | 00:16:50 | |
Take a moment to reflect: what would you need to really succeed in reaching your weight or health goals? Is it the newest restrictive fad diet, more time or more money? For my client Arthur, what made the difference was personalized coaching support and a clear-cut transition plan to eating and cooking plant-powered.
Living mostly alone, Arthur came to me not knowing how to cook much except BBQ-ing meats and boiling vegetables (then adding butter or cheese on top). His other big challenge was having a tiny kitchen with a single stove-top burner. But he was motivated to become a healthy grandpa so he can be there for his growing grandchildren. And within a few months of working together, I saw a huge change in Arthur’s eating and lifestyle habits!
In this interview segment, Arthur shares more about key positive changes he has experienced since moving into a plant-powered lifestyle, such as feeling more cognitively alert, having greater strength in weight training, weight loss and much more. He’ll also share with us a key piece of advice for listeners who are thinking of trying out a plant-based diet. Tune in now to be more inspired and motivated for your own plant-based diet journey!

Does change seem impossible because you feel so entrenched in your current ways of eating and living? And how can you change from meat heavy plates if you don’t even really know how to cook? That was the case for my client Arthur. Yet he wanted to lose weight, live longer and stay healthier to be around more for his growing little grandkids. So he decided to take the FIRST step forward. He committed to working together with me. Then within as little as 3 months, his eating habits, food choices and weight all changed for the better! In this episode, we’ll learn what Arthur’s eating habits were like previously, how limited his cooking abilities were initially, his motivations for wanting to make a lifestyle change, and whether plant-based eating is expensive. We’ll also learn about some of the many benefits he has experienced since eating plant-powered, such as greater energy and nearly 20 pounds lost within 3 months. Hear from his perspective how my approach and working together made a difference in his wellness journey. Listen in and be inspired!

| How She Reversed Diabetes With a Whole Food Plant-Based Diet: Interview With Sandra (Part 1) – ENCORE | 09 Jun 2026 | 00:32:27 | |
Do you feel weighed down and burdened by constant medications and anxiety around your medical diagnoses? Are you wondering if there is any natural holistic way to drop your blood sugar levels to normal, lift your depression, help you drop pounds, as well as improve your energy levels and mood?
Yes, there IS a way and it is simpler than you think – by focusing on eating high quality nourishing natural whole plant-based foods and moving more, your health can improve dramatically. How? In this episode, I’ll share part 1 of a fascinating interview with my special guest, Sandra Y. A member of my Community, Sandra was told initially by her doctor and other health professionals that she would need to live with diabetes for life and that there would be no cure.
However, Sandra - after a bout of further depression over her new diagnosis - decided to do her own research and came across plant-based eating. What she didn’t expect though, was the amazing healing journey she found herself on when she made the change to a plant-powered lifestyle, one that would not only improve her diabetes, but cause her to drop nearly 50 pounds, lift her depression and more…all within 6 months of switching to a whole food plant-based diet! Listen in for the details of her amazing health journey!

If you have been used to a ‘meat and potatoes’ diet for almost all your life, it can be daunting to even think about the possibility of moving to a plant-based diet lifestyle. In fact, it may feel almost impossible to move away from decades of eating steaks, fried chicken, fries, ultra-processed foods and limited veggies.

In this episode, I’m excited to share with you 3 key reasons why moving to plant-based eating will be easier than you think! Get ready to have some of your burning questions answered, like “Will plant-based eating make my meals limited?”, “Is this way of eating bland and tasteless?”, and “Will I have to say goodbye to favorites like pizza?”

| 150 | No More Yo-Yo Dieting, Greater Energy and Lower Cholesterol on a Plant-Based Diet – with Client Zohreh [Part 1] | 24 Mar 2026 | 00:16:26 | |
Have you ever tried to lose weight…then got frustrated when the results didn’t stick? That was certainly the case for my client Zohreh. She had tried different diets in the past, but none seemed to give her the sustained results she desired. Until she came to plant-based eating.
Coming from many years of eating a pescatarian diet, Zohreh thought making this transition would (and should) be easy. But she ended up feeling lost and unsure of how to best eat on a plant-based diet, to reach her desired goals of losing weight and reducing her risk of diabetes, heart attacks and other health problems.
After getting support through coaching though, this all changed. Staying plant-powered became workable and enjoyable, even while Zohreh continued to juggle a full-time job and long commutes. Listen in to this interview between Zohreh and I, recorded 9 months after we started working together. In this episode, you’ll hear about her background, past weight challenges and some of the key positive changes she has enjoyed since moving into a whole food plant-based diet. These include weight loss, lower cholesterol, greater energy and a greater confidence in being able to stay weight stable, even after trips and holidays. Listen in to gain smart tips for eating out from Zohreh and be inspired by her story!

Have you seen the new 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans and wondered if you should follow them? You may have seen talk about them on the news and social media, and don’t know quite what to believe. The slogan of eating more ‘real foods’ sounds good though, and the New Pyramid diagram seems to show that all foods - including butter, steak, whole milk and cheese – would be fine to eat and that we don’t really need to worry about the amounts eaten. But DO we need to worry? And what about the recommendations about protein and nutritional adequacy issues in vegan and vegetarian diets?
Let’s talk about this. In this episode, we’ll take a deeper dive into the New Dietary Guidelines for Americans and look at 3 more KEY things you need to know about them, to inform your own health. We’ll touch on protein, what the Guidelines say about vegan and vegetarian diets, and what has been found through research. Listen in!

| 144 | New 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans – What You Need to Know [Part 1] | 10 Feb 2026 | 00:17:17 | |
The new 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans were released on January 7, 2026 and already they have created quite a stir. Perhaps you’ve seen the Guidelines and wonder what to make of them too. For one, there’s a featured image of an inverted pyramid comprising foods like butter, steak, whole milk and cheese. Then when you get onto the realfood.gov website, you are immediately shown three images - a stalk of broccoli, a carton of whole milk, and a piece of steak. But are all foods healthy and good for long-term health as long they don’t come processed and from a factory?
This is definitely worth discussing. So in this episode, let’s take a closer look at these Guidelines recently released. In this first part, I’ll highlight the positive recommendations made within the Guidelines and then 2 important things you need to know about them. I hope you’ll walk away with greater clarity into the matter and be more informed and equipped to make the best food choices for your health. Ready? Grab a warm cup of tea and let’s get started!
