Charles Gassenheimer is the Chief Investment Officer of a Private Equity firm. His plant based diet has been a source of strength with regards to managing stress, thinking more clearly (reducing brain fog), and giving him energy throughout the day. As a senior officer he's also mandated that his workplace offerings include soy milk and vegan snacks.

What started as a journey back to good health has resulted in his becoming an athlete again. He ran cross country and track in high school and college. He was recruited to run at UPENN (where we both went to college). He is now running marathons faster in his 50s than his 20s and 30s.

He lives in New York and has 5 kids including 4 year old triplets.

Dr. Kristi Funk's book

The Juicy Bits:

1. It's never too late to make changes that can have a profound impact on health.
2. Good gets better and bad gets worse.
3. You can't outrun, out-train, or outlive a bad diet. There are no free passes with statin drugs (or any others).
4. If you're committed to good health, it's easy to make the whole-food plant-based lifestyle work.
5. In America, we don't have a protein problem, we have a fiber problem.
6. Most populations worldwide are unknowingly lactose intolerant.
7. Check out Dr. Kristi Funk's breast book.
8. Check out Charles' suggestions for daily meals which net about 30 grams of protein each. Good health comes from the highest nutrient density foods that also have the lowest calories.
9. Charles' tips for being prepared: get off a plane and immediately find a grocery store, if you're going to a ballgame or concert then eat before and after (I also suggest bringing snacks), and make sure to contact a restaurant ahead of time.
10. Whatever sport you like, you'll be able to play better and recover faster with less inflammation on a wfpb diet.
11. About 90% of genetics can be overcome with diet. And if you are in the 10% who were dealt bad cards, then you'll want to be even more vigilant about your diet.
12. VEGAN ≠ WFPB. You must remove the processed foods.
13. Charles' favorite foods: red apples, sweet potatoes, broccoli with garlic and rice wine vinegar, kale, brown rice and black bean bowl, and oil free hummus.

⭐️Get the ⁠newsletter⁠Joel Fuhrman, M.D. is a board-certified family physician, seven-time New York Times best-selling author, and internationally recognized expert on nutrition and natural healing. He specializes in preventing and reversing disease through nutritional methods.

For over 30 years, Dr. Fuhrman has shown that it is possible to achieve sustainable weight loss and reverse heart disease, diabetes, and many other illnesses using smart nutrition. In his medical practice, and through his books and television specials, he continues to bring this life-saving message to hundreds of thousands of people around the world.

He coined the term Nutritarian to describe a nutrient-dense eating style — designed to prevent cancer, slow aging, and extend lifespan.

The Juicy Bits:

1. Health is earned; it's not luck or genetic, and drugs aren't the answer.
2. Doctors don't have any more nutrition knowledge than your mailman!!!
3. White flour products (like bagels) are the same as sugar/candy as far as effects on brain functions and immunity. Oils and fried foods are a leading cause of autoimmune diseases.
4. How kids eat is directly linked to depression and every other illness.
5. The 3 most common cancers are breast, prostate, and colon, AND THEY ARE ALMOST ENTIRELY FOOD-BASED, which means that we could wipe them out with diet.
6. What a mother ate during pregnancy and all the years prior affects the state of her eggs and can result in abnormalities in children.
7. Antibiotics kill gut bacteria and never let the immune defenses fight off infection, thus training the body to get more infected.
8. The best and worst foods sit side-by-side at the store. You have a choice.
9. Children have to take a role in making society better.
10. We live in an insane world where it's acceptable to behave in a manner that destroys the planet so future generations are going to suffer. It's narcissistic and selfish.
11. It's so much more expensive to live UNHEALTHFULLY when you consider healthcare costs.
12. The American system is crazy! The medical industry and big business cultivate a sick population that thinks they can't live without ultraprocessed foods and drugs.
13. GBOMBS - the 6 most powerful anti-cancer foods to have daily -- greens, beans/legumes, onions, mushrooms, berries, seeds/nuts
14. Have a family meeting once per week to review family goals for health and get everyone involved.
15. Just because all of society is doing something doesn't make it right.
16. Nutritional excellence isn't just prevention; it's therapeutic to reverse diseases!
17. Dr. Fuhrman's faves: raw salad, vegetable bean soup or casserole, pistachios, steamed artichoke, frozen fruit

Attorney Mark Huberman is the President of the National Health Association and Editor of Health Science magazine.  He  has adhered to a whole food, plant-based vegan diet since birth in 1951 and credits his excellent health to the pioneering vision of his parents, Max and Ruth Huberman, who had the foresight to recognize the profound benefits of this lifestyle long before most others.  

Mark has been a lawyer since 1976.   Mark has also been actively involved in leadership positions in a wide variety of community organizations.  He currently also serves as Administrator of the Ohio Association of Magistrates.

For nearly all of Mark’s adult life, his greatest passion has been supporting the work of the National Health Association, the oldest organization in the Country advocating the benefits of a whole-food, plant-based diet and lifestyle, something it has been championing since its founding in 1948.  He became a member of its Board of Directors when he was 18 years old and was elected its youngest President in 1977 and served two consecutive two-year terms.  He returned to serve two more terms in the mid 1990’s and then once again from 2004-2005.  In March 2012, he was again asked to serve as President and has continued in that role to this day.

Mark is the Executive Director and Editor of its award-winning quarterly health journal, Health Science.  

In June 2017, Mark retired from his Magistrate position to devote the lion share of his energies to the NHA.  In partnership with is wife, Wanda, they have organized annual health conferences which have featured the leading voices of the whole-food, plant-based health movement, including Drs. Joel Fuhrman, Alan Goldhamer, Stephan Esser, Frank Sabatino, Neal Barnard and more.   

Mark loves sports, the theater, hiking, traveling and in the Summer time, his organic garden. He and his wife, Wanda, are the proud parents and grandparents.

THE JUICY BITS:

1. Everything that has been learning in science has validated a whole food plant-based diet.
2. The vegan, WFPB lifestyle gives you enormous power of your health destiny.
3. The more sensitive we can be, the better the world will be.
4. Watching vegetable gardens grow is wonderous; being vegan brings a spirituality that allows a closeness with wonder.
5. YOU CAN CONTROL THE HEALTHY CHOICES IN YOUR HOME.
6. Gain control of your health before the warranty runs out.
7. Rational choices to age well include being SOS-free, getting good sleep, and regular exercise.
8. YOU DON'T BUY IMMUNITY, YOU BUILD IT.
9. There's a vegan version of everything now.
10. Most people don't worry about their health until they've lost it.
11. What we're doing is not sustainable for the planet or the cost of healthcare.
12. Vegan, SOS-free travel is a wonderful way to bridge travel and community.
13. Mark recommends watching Forks Over Knives, What the Health, and Dr. Greger's How Not to Die, read Joel Fuhrman's Eat for Life, read labels, follow the Dirty Dozen.
14. Mark's faves: peas, mango, avocado, salads.

Wayne Hsiung is an animal rights lawyer, former faculty member at Northwestern School of Law, and co-founder of The Simple Heart Initiative. He has led teams that have investigated and rescued animals from animal-abusing facilities across the globe and has organized successful campaigns to ban fur in San Francisco and California. He served as lead counsel (and, sometimes, defendant) in five “right to rescue” trials in which activists were prosecuted after being charged for giving aid to sick and dying animals, garnering media attention from The New York Times. He is also a co-founder and former lead organizer of the grassroots animal rights network Direct Action Everywhere.Wayne's Links:

The Juicy Bits:

1. "All animals are equal" - a chapter of Peter Singer's Animal Liberation
2. Wayne's dog wasn't just a companion animal, it was his best friend.
3. Failure gave Wayne the freedom to do things that actually mattered. Fear of failure keeps people in the status quo, doing what everyone else is doing. But when you're not scared of dying, you can't be scared of anything else.
4. The cruelty and exploitation of animals is the greatest atrocity in the history of human civilization.
5. Spirituality is the foundation of activism.
6. Courage always comes in small steps and it builds over time as you take more steps. Courage is a community attribute, not an individual one.
7. "Find your voice, find some friends, and fight like hell."
8. The animal rights movement requires finding core stories and reflecting collectively on why they matter.
9. Story-based leadership is about using story of self, story of us, and story of now to create a strong movement.
10. There's something powerful about one's willingness to suffer for a cause. There is immense spiritual growth that comes from suffering.
11. Purpose is something a lot of people are lacking but it makes life worth living.
12. ALL SENTIENT BEINGS FEEL PAIN AND YEARN FOR FAMILIES.
13. Wayne is not a law breaker, he's a law maker.
14. THE FOUNDING FATHERS WERE WRONG. The Constitution should include non-human animals, because they deserve life and liberty.
15. All MEN are created equal really means that all humanity are created equal.
16. Vivisection means cutting of the living body.
17. ANIMALS ARE THE MOST POWERLESS BEINGS IN OUR SOCIETY. They're invisible to the legal system.
18. We still live in a society that's ruled by the powerful. The less power you have, the more likely you'll be abused.
19. Learn more. The closer you get to suffering, the more accurately you'll see the world, then you can work to change it.
20. Activism is about empowering people who are already supportive.
21. Empathy is the core of the animal rights movement.
22. MARSHALL BIORESOURCES MARCH TO ABOLISH ANIMAL TESTING
23. Wayne's favorite foods: pb sandwich, pasta, rice, cookies, seitan

The Juicy Bits:

1. Meet and Be around rescued animals; they are individuals much like domesticated pets.
2. The vast majority of suffering on Earth is a result of abuse taking place in factory farms. Factory Farms are the most destructive force on the planet.
3. Going vegan is a choice stemming from going down a path of compassion. Check out the episode with Colleen Patrick-Goudreau.
4. Compassion in World Farming is one of the largest farm animal protection organizations. They also help with food system reform and change.
5. Our food system is broken. It is financially and nutritionally inefficient with so much of the world's seeds and grains going to feed animals instead of people.
6. Cage-free eggs are NOT HUMANE. They cost double or triple conventional eggs when the added cost per egg is only 1-5 cents.
7. The SAVE OUR BACON ACT would be a law stuck in the farm bill that would nullify all state laws prohibiting crates. Why oppose the SOBA: it nullifies all animal protection laws, it's bad for smaller farmers who actually believe animals should have space to move, and it takes away states' rights and overturns voter-approved laws.
8. How you can help stop SOBA: call your US Senator at 202-224-3121, and tell the person on the phone that you oppose SOBA and do not want it included in the farm bill.
9. The SOBA is about protecting mother pigs, but it's also chickens and veal calves that are subjected to the worst confinement on Earth.
10. The first law to ban gestation crates was a ballot measure in the red state of Florida, where they put it in the state's constitution. The SOBA is not about banning pork -- it is simply about allowing mother pigs to stand up, turn around, and extend limbs.
11. To what length would you go to get your pet out of suffering?
12. If you help SOBA and the fight to end factory farming, you will change the course of history for billions!
13. We are in a collective fight around compassion; it takes all of us everyday doing simple acts of kindness.
14. Matt's favorite foods: anything from Chef Chloe in NYC! and nutritional yeast.

The Juicy Bits:

1. You don't have to love animals to not want to hurt them. We come into this world compassionate. Violence is taught.
2. We buy organic and free-range because we believe we're good people, BUT WE DON'T WANT TO BE TOO INCONVENIENCED.
3. It's not HOW we keep animals, IT'S THAT WE BRING THEM INTO THIS WORLD ONLY TO KILL THEM. It's a system of violence that's unchecked. Check out Gail Eisnitz's book Slaughterhouse.
4. It's painful to become awake but the price we pay for not being awake is hardening our hearts and our awareness of truth.
5. WHAT IS COMPASSION? It's connection and awareness that whatever I do impacts someone else.
6. The point is not to be vegan. It's to be compassionate, and veganism is the way to get there.
7. It's easy to say we're compassionate, but where is that manifesting in daily behavior.
8. Change only happens when we're willing to stretch comfort zones.
9. Many people are happy and busy and feel like they can't fit anything else in, but MANY PEOPLE ALSO FEEL LIKE SOMETHING IS MISSING.
10. Evolution is the thing because the alternative is to stay stagnant. Change happens when we inspire each other as humans.
11. If you think vegan will be hard, that's what it'll be.
12. The foundation of most cultures' cuisines IS PLANTS.
13. The first step to being a joyful vegan is to orient that way.
14. Being vegan is about saying NO to cruelty, unhealthiness, violence, habitat devastation, and slaughter, and saying YES to flavor, abundance, joy, health, wellness, and compassion.
15. Perception shift: animal products do not have to be the center of the plate. Replace the animal with plant protein and have lots of side dishes.
16. If you have an option to be compassionate, take it.
17. No matter where you live, there's always something you can do to support native pollinators and wildlife.
18. Wherever you can, START.
19. Colleen's favorite foods: tofu, carrots, peanut butter, popcorn, blueberries, and chickpeas.

The Juicy Bits:

1. Being fit is great, but it's really about being healthy.
2. We accept mediocrity as normal, even great, but having stomach aches, digestive problems, constipation, bloating, poor skin, and little sleep is not healthy.
3. Bodybuilding is not the best habit for bodies. It's too extreme.
4. For a woman vegan to build muscle, it takes eating enough food, getting good, regenerative sleep, and functional medicine pieces like gut health, hormonal balance, and reduced stress.
5. Try: tracking food, mindfulness practices, setting boundaries, using a calendar, and self-care activities.
6. CARBS FUEL HIGH PERFORMANCE ATHLETES. Carbs are good. PROTEIN IS FOR REPAIR.
7. .8g protein per kg of body weight is standard for muscle maintenance. Add more fitness goals and aging women.
8. Supplements are meant TO SUPPLEMENT the diet.
9. Women should not try to live off 1200-1300 calories per day. In order to be healthy and look good, you need to eat.
10. EAT REAL FOOD, AND LOTS OF IT. SLEEP. REDUCE STRESS.
11. Try vegan, but do it smart. Hire a good coach.
12. Clarissa's favorite foods: fava bean tofu, textured pea protein, fruit, potatoes, steamed vegetables, hearts of palm pasta

Gail A. Eisnitz, winner of the prestigious Albert Schweitzer Medal for outstanding achievement in animal welfare, has been working for decades to document and expose the shocking underbelly of the U.S. meat industry. She is chief investigator for the Humane Farming Association and author of the new memoir, Out of Sight: An Undercover Investigator’s Fight for Animal Rights and Her Own Survival. Eisnitz and her first book, Slaughterhouse: The Shocking Story of Greed, Neglect, and Inhumane Treatment inside the U.S. Meat Industry, were the driving force behind a front-page exposé in the Washington Post that resulted in an annual multimillion dollar Congressional appropriation for enforcement of the Humane Slaughter Act—the first funding ever allocated for a law that had been on the books for more than 40 years. 

Eisnitz’s work has resulted in exposés by ABC’s Good Morning America, ABC’s PrimeTime Live, and Dateline NBC, has been featured in such newspapers as the New York Times, San Francisco Chronicle, Miami Herald, Detroit Free Press, Texas Monthly, Denver Business Journal, Los Angeles Times, and U.S. News & World Report, and her interviews have been heard on more than 1600 radio stations. In her new memoir, Eisnitz takes readers on a journey of self-discovery as she successfully fights to document and expose scandalous animal abuse, all in the face of a rare visual processing disorder that she has grappled with since childhood. The disease, which was only identified in the scientific literature a mere 10 years ago—was diagnosed three years ago, after she began writing her memoir—and is revealed at the book’s climax. Eisnitz has been vegan for two decades.

The Juicy Bits:

1. When you find out what's going on with animals in the food system, you have no choice but to GO VEGAN. People are sensitive and can change. They're just usually unaware.
2. People are unaware of what's going on in the system and don't even know the basics of animal behavior. COWS DO NOT NATURALLY PRODUCE MILK. Like humans, they lactate only after pregnancy and childbirth. And the only reason their milk is sold in stores is because their babies are stolen from them.
3. Killing something that did not want to die is not humane.
4. The Humane Farming Association conducts anti-cruelty investigations, helps with legislative campaigns and litigation, and saves animals.
5. The Holocaust taught us what humans are capable of doing, and we're doing it now TO ANIMALS.
6. 55 years ago, 10 BILLION animals in the world were slaughtered each year. Now, that same number is slaughtered in the US alone. Increased line speeds and gestation crates make this possible.
7. The American Veterinary Medical Association is in bed with the meat industry and supports the atrocities.
8. Gail's favorite foods include vegan chili with peanuts and pineapple, and hummus with chips.

Kate Galli is qualified as a Master Personal Trainer, Life Coach, NLP Practitioner and has also completed the eCornell Plant Based Nutrition Certificate program.

Kate first got into fitness as a way to transform her body and confidence. She has spent 20 years helping 1,000's of individuals sculpt a body and life they love and over the past 9+ years has focused on Vegan Health Coaching as one of the most powerful ways to advocate for the animals is to be fit, strong and healthy.

Her vision: To create a healthy, compassionate vegan world.

Via the Healthification podcast Kate has interviewed hundreds of passionate and compassionate authors, athletes, doctors and entrepreneurs.

The Juicy Bits:

1. Focus on abundance, not what you're eliminating.
2. The animals are here WITH US, not FOR US.
3. Veganism can be super easy with FOOD PREP. Buy and prep components like veggies, plant protein, sauces, and grains and you can make meals simply.
4. Don't be afraid of a recipe flop. We've all made plenty of terrible meat meals.
5. Don't let perfect be the enemy of progress.
6. An emotional benefit of veganism is lifting the heavy weight of living with incongruency. There is a lightness that comes from alignment.
7. Manage anger with self-care: meditation, journaling, walking, nature, 24-hour digital detox, and community.
8. Discover your CORE VALUES. Check this list.
9. Journaling technique: STATE the two desired states, IDENTITY is belief statements aligned with who you want to become in the world, and FREE write
10. Kate's favorite foods: homemade vegan burger or ball, with crispy potatoes, cruciferous veggies, and a salad with creamy dressing. It's about VOLUME, TEXTURE, and TASTE.

Melanie Joy, PhD, is a Harvard-educated psychologist, international trainer, and author of eight books, including the award-winning “Why We Love Dogs, Eat Pigs, and Wear Cows,” “Beyond Beliefs: A Guide to Improving Relationships and Communication for Vegans, Vegetarians, and Meat Eaters,” and “How to End Injustice Everywhere.” She is the eighth recipient of the Institute of Jainology’s Ahimsa Award, which was previously given to Nelson Mandela and the Dalai Lama. Her work has been featured by media outlets around the world, including the BBC, ABC Australia, NPR, and The New York Times. She is also the founding president of the nonprofit organization Beyond Carnism. You can learn more about her work at carnism.org.

The Juicy Bits:

1. What is CARNISM? The invisible belief system that conditions people to eat certain animals and not others. It's the opposite of veganism. Everyone has a belief system and most people make a choice to eat animals.
2. Carnism is a global system whereby each culture has their own list of animals that they'll eat and not eat, and each culture finds other cultures offensive and wrong.
3. Carnism is a dominant belief system, so common that it is woven into the fabric of society, shaping norms, laws, and behaviors.
4. Carnism creates psychological defense mechanism that disconnect people from the reality of what they're doing -- supporting an industry that needlessly slaughters animals. The 3 Ns of justification are that eating meat is NORMAL, NATURAL, and NECESSARY.
5. Carnism conditions people to feel defensive against anyone that challenges their right to eat animals.
6. The quickest way to reduce the worldwide animal suffering is to ask people to be as vegan as possible.
7. There is a high rate of burnout amongst vegan activists due to the overwhelming sense of responsibility they feel to reduce animal cruelty. YOU HAVE PERMISSION NOT TO ADVOCATE. REST.
8. The most important thing any of us can do is commit to our own self-regulation.
9. A vegan ally is a supporter of vegans and someone who is as vegan as possible.
10. Watch Melanie's "What to Say to Vegans" video HERE.
11. Vegans are shamed and made to feel like they are "picky" and "overly sensitive." YOUR SENSITIVITY IS BEAUTIFUL! What's concerning is the global scale numbing when it comes to animal cruelty.

⭐️Get the ⁠newsletter⁠As someone who is conscious of health & wellness, Sarah Metzger is a long time Vegan and fully embraces a Plant Based lifestyle while finding joy in helping other people explore a similar path.

The many layers of her journey have allowed her to experience everything from development of interpersonal connections at farmers markets, owning and operating a restaurant/bakery, custom cake creations, to podcasting about what is on our plates beyond food, and really peeling back the layers in life so we can shift our portions to not only nourish our bodies, but our hearts, minds, and souls as well.

What’s On Your Plate podcast is a space to connect on all things that make our plates in life heavy & abundant and seeks out transformative, inspiring and healing conversations.

Her take on things is that if you want to become a better version of yourself, you have to be willing to change what isn’t working, find purpose in your pain, be willing to change your mind, & get out of your own way!

The Juicy Bits:

1. There are many digestive benefits to eating plant-based: less bloating and bathroom emergencies, which are great if you are an endurance runner.
2. You have to have more than one WHY to continue living a vegan lifestyle long-term.
3. People are afraid of what they don't know or they're afraid they'll be lacking something.
4. All of life is learning and if you're not evolving in some way then what is the point?
5. Transformation happens in little steps, so be open to the journey taking you to the next right thing.
6. There should not be food scarcity in our world with the amount of food we produce. The problem is we produce so much to feed animals that eventually end up on some people's plates. So if we just cut out the unfortunate animal middlemen, more people would have food to eat.
7. Consciousness happens when you start understanding that your choices affect more than you.
8. ANIMALS ARE ALL SENTIENT BEINGS. Just because people have always eaten animals doesn't make it right.
9. Let's rebel against big business and governments that are telling us to do things that keep us in the machine of feeling bad and needing meds.
10. All of life is learning and it's best learned when in nature, outside, and off screens.
11. We're meant to be in community... even extroverts.
12. Don't be afraid to get in the kitchen. Anything can be made from scratch.
13. Sarah's favorite foods include tofu, fresh produce for juicing, and dark chocolate, like THIS ONE.

The Juicy Bits:

1. Early lifestyle physician Nathan Pritikin was the first to say that you can reverse heart disease.
2. In 1990, Dr. Dear Ornish was the first to show on imaging heart disease reversal.
3. The definition of good health is the absence of disease and disability, but with vitality and good mental health, and without misery and pain.
4. We are such a sick society that people don't know how good they can feel. People associate normal with being unhealthy.
5. Moses Maimonides: "No disease that can be treated by diet should be treated with any other means." Diet is the safe, simple, side effect-free solution you can add to any treatment plan.
6. 106,000 Americans diet from medications every year! We suppress our natural healing process when we take lots of meds.
7. Obesity is not a moral failing; it is a battle against biology. We are living in a toxic food environment with excess calories while we're bombarded with ads for junk. Obesity dramatically reduces life span.
8. We can de-crap our diets by eating green, leafy vegetables, groats, and spices like turmeric, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, and vinegar.
9. 3 things to add to your diet today: green, leafy veggies, legumes, and berries. 3 things to remove ASAP: trans-fats, processed meats, and liquid candy.
10. Dr. Greger's favorite food: purple sweeet potatoes! Try them as fries or frozen and added to smoothies.

As the Co-Founder and Executive Director of LEAP and Co-Founder of Blackberry Creek Sanctuary, Danielle Hanosh is a pioneer for the next generation of leaders in wildlife conservation, climate solutions, and animal advocacy. With a teaching credential, MA in Education, ten years of experience as a public school teacher, and over a decade running a sanctuary for rescued animals, she is uniquely positioned to help young people think critically about issues impacting animals, humans, and the environment and to channel their learning into positive societal change through political activism, storytelling, and ethical lifestyle education. Danielle also serves on the board of wildlife NGO, Women for Wolves, advocating for compassionate conservation at CA Senate and Dept. of Fish and Wildlife Hearings, and helps with youth animal advocacy education.

Joshua Hanosh is the Vice President at Three29, a digital marketing and web development agency where he helps companies rethink how they show up in a world increasingly shaped by AI-driven discovery.

Outside of work, Josh genuinely enjoys being active and present in the world around him. You’ll usually find him in the gym, out on a run, playing golf, or traveling to places where adventure is a given. He’s always been drawn to experiences that create space to think, reset, and reconnect.

His interest in veganism is rooted in a broader curiosity about how we live, consume, and coexist. That’s led to him co-founding Blackberry Creek Farm Animal Sanctuary, where he supports efforts to care for rescued animals and give them a better life, as well as LEAP (Leaders for Ethics, Animals, and the Planet), an organization focused on advancing compassionate, sustainable systems through education and advocacy.

At the core of it all, Josh is interested in alignment, between what we believe, how we live, and the impact we have.

The Juicy Bits:

1. We don't know where food comes from and we don't know how our choices impact the planet.
2. Question things that don't make sense.
3. "The fact that I exist causes harm." Become conscious and do the least harm possible. The majority of soy grown feeds animals. If we sourced the soy directly to feed humans, we'd reduce harm to animals, preserve wildlife, help conservation efforts, and solve the global hunger crisis.
4. It's good to be mindful of how we live and not just blindly follow traditions and culture.
5. Get involved with existing animal sanctuaries.
6. There is a mental health epidemic affecting adults and children. Being outside, connecting with nature, and unplugging from tech is critical. The LEAP program doesn't teach compassion, IT FOSTERS WHAT'S ALREADY THERE.
7. FFA and 4H have a lot of great attributes, but the animals raised end up slaughtered or bred.
8. We CAN live happy, healthy lives without taking the life of an animal.
9. We're caught up that every bite has to be amazing. Food is fuel. The essence of traditional foods is to bring us together in community, so just because it's plant-based doesn't mean we lose the love and connection. We get to save lives!
10. Favorite foods: vegan donuts and baked goods (seek out local options), oatmeal or muesli with powdered peanut butter, vegan bowls, Uncle Eddie's cookies, Hodo tofu, Ben & Jerry's nondairy ice cream

Neal Barnard, MD, FACC, is an Adjunct Professor of Medicine at the George Washington University School of Medicine and President of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine and Barnard Medical Center in Washington, DC. He has led numerous research studies investigating the effects of diet on diabetes, body weight, hormonal symptoms, and chronic pain, including a groundbreaking NIH-funded study that paved the way for viewing type 2 diabetes as a potentially reversible condition for many patients. His most recent book, The Power Foods Diet, shows how certain foods influence the appetite and metabolism to facilitate weight control.The Juicy Bits:

1. Just because something is culturally normal does not mean it's healthy, a good use of time, or ethical.
2. People ARE NOT naturally carnivores. Our closest relatives are apes and they do not eat meat.
3. Young people eating meat won't exhibit signs of disease...YET. Science shows that a meat-based diet is strongly linked to cardiovascular disease, colorectal cancer, and diabetes.
4. Plant-based diets have NO CHOLESTEROL. They get fat out of the muscles and liver cells, helping weight loss, blood sugar and blood pressure reduction, increased energy, and improved digestion.
5. Doctors shouldn't meet patients where they're at... because it doesn't help them and there isn't a reward.
6. Having something every once in a while reawakens desires and doesn't allow body to detox. MODERATION IS ONLY GOOD FOR GOOD THINGS. If something hurts the body, YOU DON'T WANT IT AT ALL.
7. Traditional doctors don't know nutrition. They die of the same diseases as their patients.
8. GLP-1 meds are there to counteract maladaptive habits at great expense... horrible side effects and increased premiums for everyone else, including medicare tax.
9. In 1909, the average American at 3.8 pounds of cheese per year. Today, it's 40 pounds per person per year, propelling the obesity epidemic.
10. We hand down bad habits generationally.
11. Biggest killers are heart disease, cancer, stroke, diabetes, and Alzheimer's, and nutrition plays a role in all of them. Just because family members have these diseases doesn't mean you will. Eat plants.
12. Cruelty is intrinsic to ALL LIVESTOCK OPERATIONS EVERYWHERE, regardless of which animal it is. Chickens only get to live 6 weeks before they're slaughtered, and Americans eat 1 MILLION CHICKENS PER HOUR!
13. People on plant-based diets live longer, healthier, slimmer, more energetic lives.
14. Don't know where to start? Find a book and go out to eat at an ethnic restaurant.
15. Dr. Barnard's favorite vegan foods: jalapeno burritos and sushi (miso soup, salad, vegetable rolls)

Lauren Ornelas is the founder and General Programs Team Member of Food Empowerment Project (F.E.P.), a vegan food justice nonprofit that promotes veganism, fights for farm workers, works on lack of access to healthy foods in Black and Brown communities, and encourages people not to buy chocolate sourced from the worst forms of child labor, including slavery.

The Juicy Bits:

1. Young children have empathy toward animals, but it's pushed out of them.
2. No matter the label, animals are transported and slaughtered in horrible conditions. If you care that much, you need to take that extra step.
3. What does sustainable mean to you? It should mean every living being can live life fully with dignity and respect.
4. Once you start thinking outside yourself, it opens you up to thinking of others. If we have the privilege to think about our food choices, then we have a responsibility to do better.
5. When looking at the food system, every step of the way there are humans exploited. It is important to make informed decisions and speak out.
6. The FOOD EMPOWERMENT PROJECT focuses on: veganism for the animals, anti-dairy efforts, farm worker justice, and lack of access to healthy foods.
7. CHOCOLATE IS A LUXURY. Try not to support industries that enslave, abuse, and traffic people.
8. Food is a tool for social change. There is so much power with food.
9. Lauren's favorite foods: Thai and Mexican, popcorn, French fries

A recent Northeastern University graduate in 'the Sustainable Business of Food', she’s on a mission to build a plastic-free pantry and create food that’s better for both people and the planet.

The Juicy Bits:

1. Veganism brings empowerment back to food, because our choices have impact.
2. Veganism allows us to see problems in the food system, like sustainability.
3. No matter what snack we buy, it's negatively impacting the planet.
4. You can choose to live in a rooted way with veganism, exercise, blogging, and meditating.
5. Avoid people pleasing and try things on your own, and make sure to make choices that align.
6. Limiting beliefs are things we believe that limit our success.
7. Time off technology is life changing and offers space to write, read, and reflect.
8. Humans look so hard to heal their traumas with modalities, but when you get in nature, it does it for you.
9. Systems of oppression are tangled up in everything we do and we're not taught to see it or understand it.
10. Check out ways to support ethical causes: Rooted Living website, WISE at Northeastern University, Black Girl Environmentalist, Support & Feed Organization
11. Rachel's favorite foods: sweet potatoes, lentil Bolognese, Rooted Living granola with Kite Hill protein or Cocojune yogurt

The Juicy Bits:

1. When we pay for something, think about what we're supporting.
2. For vegans speaking to non-vegans, ask, "Would you like to know more?"
3. Imagine a door on someone's heart, and from the conversation, it's either going to open wider or slam shut. Listening keeps the door open.
4. It's not your job to change someone... just plant a seed of possibility.
5. Those aware of the suffering have to work harder to balance emotional well-being. Despair can be debilitating.
6. Our immune and nervous systems weren't built to know and manage everything going on in the world.
7. Understand you can't save all the animals, but you can save SOME.
8. It might seem like we can't do anything to help, but 99% of the time, we can do something. So focus on the 99%.
9. Rae's favorite foods: hibiscus water, lemon water, vegan alfredo sauce over quinoa brown rice pasta

My interview with BRITTANY BROWN

Rabbi David Rosen is a British-Israeli rabbi and interfaith peacemaker. He has spent his life dedicated to a variety of important missions: furthering interfaith dialogue, pursuing justice and peace, and promoting veganism and healthy living.

He held many significant roles throughout his career. He served as AJC’s International Director of Interreligious Affairs and Special Advisor to the Abrahamic Family House in Abu Dhabi. He headed the International Jewish Committee for Inter-religious Consultations (IJCIC), the broad-based coalition of Jewish organizations and denominations that represents World Jewry in its relations with other world religions.

He was the senior rabbi of the largest Orthodox Jewish congregation in South Africa (the Green and Sea Point Hebrew Congregation, Cape Town) and served as a judge on the Cape Beth Din (rabbinic court). He is also a board member of the Brussels-based organization CEJI - A Jewish Contribution to an Inclusive Europe that promotes a Europe of diversity and respect.

He was Chief Rabbi of Ireland before relocating permanently to Israel in 1985. He was Dean at the Sapir Center for Jewish Education and Culture in the Old City of Jerusalem and became Professor of Jewish Studies at the Jerusalem Center for Near Eastern Studies.

He also served as the Anti Defamation League’s Director of Interfaith Relations in Israel, ADL’s co-liaison to the Vatican, and Director of the ADL Israel office. 

He is a devoted husband, father, and grandfather.Rabbi David Rosen's website

The Juicy Bits:

1. Kosher laws may reduce suffering but there is STILL suffering and cruelty.
2. If you are benefitting from something you wouldn't want to do yourself, then is it right to benefit from that same action when others do it for you?
3. "There's enough food for human need, but not enough for human greed."
4. Environmental problems can feel overwhelming. While recycling and not wasting are good, nothing compares to the impact of going vegan.
5. Animal product consumption is a drug!
6. The garden of Eden is portrayed in the book of Genesis as the ideal society. Adam and Eve are given all the vegetation they could need to survive and procreate.
7. We should strive to the degree we're able to live as good a life as we can. The less destruction, pain, and suffering we cause, the healthier we and the environment will be.
8. It is difficult to live a modern life and be completely free of connection to exploitation. But we should try our best.
9. The problem with animal agriculture isn't JUST THE SLAUGHTER. It's everything leading up to it -- how animals are treated, force fed, confined, and transported.
10. Dominion DOES NOT MEAN that animals were created for humans to exploit.
11. If you don't care about the environment and the well-being of humanity and all sentient life, then you are not truly honoring God as creator of the universe.
12. Rabbi's favorite foods: vegan shakshuka with tofu, mushrooms, and falafel; silken tofu lemon cheesecake; and avocado mousse.
13. We're in this world for very little time and we've got to do as much good as we can and tread as lightly as we can, and create more love and compassion than there was previously. We can do all this many ways but the most impactful way is by going vegan.

Watch my interview with BRITTANY BROWN - https://youtu.be/8V5W4_rahdo

Gary Yourofsky is an animal rights activist, lecturer, educator, and animal liberationist. He is known for his years of powerful classroom lectures. The most notable speech Gary gave was at Georgia Tech and is titled “The Most Important Speech You Will Ever Hear." It has received millions of views online, and is credited with inspiring thousands, maybe millions, of people to go vegan. He has been arrested, imprisoned, and banned from several countries as a result of his activism, which includes liberating 1,542 mink from a Canadian fur farm.

The Juicy Bits:

1. Enjoy the health and environmental benefits that veganism offers, but go vegan for the animals. It feels so good removing your self from the exploitation.
2. It's ok to be ignorant because of society programs us, but once you know, don't fight it. Go vegan.
3. Vegetarians are still supporting dairy... which is the most tragic aspect of the animal agriculture industry. It's got to be full vegan.
4. Speciesism is the nastiest form of racism -- it's prioritizing humans over animals.
5. If you eat meat, dairy, eggs, and fish, you are paying for rape, slavery, and a holocaust.
6. The reason there are so many animals on the planet is because of the animal agriculture industry. If they were set free and had only days, months, or a year left, it would be worth it to be out of captivity.
7. As soon as kids can comprehend words, they need to learn the truth and not live in fantasyland where they are uninformed and programmed to believe lies. Kids love animals and would be horrified to know they're eating them. Kids can handle the truth.
8. There are no laws against animal cruelty, otherwise there would be no factory farms, circuses, rodeos, or animals in research.
9. Cage-free and buying local doesn't eliminate exploitation and slavery. They might not be living in chains or close quarters, but they certainly don't have their freedom.

The Juicy Bits:

1. A chiropractor is less drug-driven than a traditional doctor. Dr. Frank is science-driven and is focused on removing the obstacle to optimal health.
2. The whole mentality of the medical profession is counter to how the body works. The symptom is not THE PROBLEM, rather, it's the way the body manifests its own approach to recovery.
3. Doctors are not healthcare providers... they are disease managers.
4. Acute medical issues are things like infections and broken bones that need to be addressed immediately. Chronic degenerative issues have lot of contributing factors, so taking a pill for a migraine doesn't address the root cause. There are many solutions to the problem.
5. It's not about being good or bad, it's about evolution, growth, and change, and the process of owning out choices and improving our health.
6. Spirituality is about asking, "How do you choices affect the bigger picture?"
7. As much as 80-85% of food grown goes to feed animals, (not humans), which provide only about 15% of the world's calories. It take 100 times more land to produce 1 pound of animal protein than it does plant protein. All of this inefficiency leads to horrific food insecurity. About 25,000 people (including 10,000 children) die every single day of hunger.
8. Empathy, compassion, and love are fundamental to who we are as a species. Unfortunately, conditioning shapes our beliefs about compassion and forces us away from our innate feelings.
9. Colors in food have emotional vibration. The vibratory qualities of what we're putting in our bodies daily impact our physical and emotional health.
10. Carnivores (who've evolved to eat that way) have the shortest lifespans. Herbivores, like elephants and hippos, have the longest lifespans.
11. Genes are coding proteins. Epigenetics are lifestyle behaviors that affect genes, proving that genes can be modified by our choices.
12. Medicine, science, and spirituality are actually all connected.
13. Dr. Frank's favorite foods: Buddha bowls with rice, beans, vegetables, tahini, and lemon juice; fresh fruit; salads; steamed potatoes and quinoa; fruit juice with sparkling water; nuts and seeds.

The Juicy Bits:

1. Veganism is not just about avoiding harm; it's embracing something that's exciting and good, and leaning into authenticity and living your values.
2. There are so many different entry points to veganism. Check out my interview with Thomas Jackson to hear 6 of the reasons to go vegan.
3. Veganism is the interconnectedness of health, loving animals, and being kind to nature.
4. Dr. Melanie Joy coined the term CARNISM, which is the deeply conditioned and invisible belief system that says it's okay to eat certain animals. We don't question carnism, we just follow it.
5. With cognitive dissonance, we can change behaviors or compartmentalize so we don't feel out of alignment with our values.
6. Being true to oneself as a vegan doesn't mean it's one's responsibility to change other people.
7. Practices to stay grounded: include yourself in the self-care circle, have a morning routine of meditation, journaling, exercise, prayer, and affirmations, limit exposure to traumatizing content
8. Benefits of veganism include: lightness, being in touch with intuition, compassion, improved mood
9. Angela's favorite vegan foods: veggie burgers, soups, curries, veggie lasagna, and vegan crabcakes

Dr. Ruby Lathon is a certified holistic nutritionist and inspires with a powerful story of recovering from cancer through alternative treatment focused on a whole food, plant-based diet. Dr. Ruby was featured in the hit documentaries, What the Health and They’re Trying to Kill Us. Dr. Ruby worked as a researcher and an award-winning engineer, and now teaches others how to re-engineer their health and live disease free. Dr. Ruby recently released a new cookbook: Stop Playin’, Go Vegan: Getting Serious with Healthy Vegan Recipes to Prevent and Reverse Disease!

The Juicy Bits:

1. Overwhelming research shows that a plant-based diet can heal cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and more.
2. There are side effects and risks to taking medication, and for some people, feeling free means not needing to take meds; medication may give the illusion of freedom, but it's a trap, often leading to more meds to offset the risks of original meds.
3. If you've already had your thyroid removed and are taking medication, don't worry. You can still offset negative side effects of meds with a healthy lifestyle.
4. Do your research before accepting whatever a doctor says.
5. RESTED RICH FACE is a marketing ploy to get you to buy unnecessary products. Don't eat cheese, drink alcohol, or smoke, and instead get the glow easily and cheaply with plant-based nutrition.
6. Simple, clean, and plant-based means greens, juicing, no microwave, no ultra-processed packaged foods, herbal teas, non-toxic beauty products, and detoxing.
7. It's okay to question authority, trust your gut, and verify for yourself.
8. That fact that your ancestors ate meat and lived long, healthy lives is not an indication that you should eat that way. Today's food system is different, our lifestyle is different, stress is different, plus there's tech, emfs, and chemicals that our ancestors didn't have.
9. Cows don't just product milk. They must have given birth in order to lactate, just like humans. If you avoid meat for ethical reasons but still consume dairy, consider the process by which dairy is produced.
10. Being plant-based makes sense for every aspect of living - health, environment, and cruelty. If you wouldn't slaughter a chicken yourself, why are you okay letting someone do it on your behalf?
11. People who work in slaughterhouses have much higher rates of domestic abuse and violence.
12. You need to do what you want to do, not what you think you're supposed to do.
13. The benefits of whole-food plant-based nutrition include: period relief, weight management, easy menopause, glowing skin.
14. The China Study showed that eating 90% whole-food plant-based reduces the risk of turning on cancer cells dramatically. The antioxidants from plants (even non-organic) far outweigh the toxins in animal foods.
15. Dr. Ruby's favorite foods: air fried marinated string beans, kombucha, seltzer, kale chips, and faux meats.

The Juicy Bits:

1. To be a grown-up, we're taught to bury feelings. But meditation and spirituality help bring them out again.

5. Voting with your dollar is your most important vote.
6. We're indoctrinated into violence, and we're tribal people who need community. But we no longer need to fear being cast out and sent to our death if we disagree.
7. Judgment doesn't reach anyone. Lead with compassion.
8. Every religion's teaching of compassion is aligned with veganism.
9. When what we say is out of alignment with what we do, WE SUFFER - Dr. Sailesh Rao

11. Use discernment and educate yourself.

2. A varied whole foods plant-based diet is good for the gut microbiome.
3. Animals are sentient beings, meaning they have feelings and experience pain and longing for mothers.
4. Pasture-raised and family farm animals go to the same slaughterhouses as all other animals.

The Juicy Bits:

1. The end of factory farming is more likely than the end of farming animals in general for food.
2. Factory farming is a method of farming, and it is also a set of laws, policies, and economic structures that enable a certain kind of farming.
3. Since the Cold War, the USDA privatized industrial meat production for economic and political gain.
4. People do not want antibiotics, drugs, chemicals, and contamination in their food.
5. Humanewashing is like greenwashing, the use of marketing by companies to give the public the impression that their products align with your values.
6. Because most people don't want meat, dairy, and eggs with drugs in them, there are layers of humanewashing: unregulated terms like all natural, humanely-raised, sustainable, cage free, and pasture raised; and unregulated certifications like certified human and animal welfare certified.
7. The food industry doesn't do testing for antibiotics, because they don't want to know if they're there. If they know, then they'll have to solve the problem, and that's expensive.
8. Andrew's favorite foods: cauliflower shwarma, Beyond Beef steak tips

Chuck Carroll is host of the Physicians Committee’s popular “The Exam Room” podcast and known widely as The Weight Loss Champion, a name given to him by an NFL player for losing an incredible 275 pounds.

At just 5 feet 6 inches tall, Chuck weighed 420 pounds and had a 66-inch waist before radically changing his life.

Before that, like so many others, he tried and failed countless times to lose weight.  Any success he achieved was short-lived as the weight came pouring back on and then some. At his heaviest, he was eating 10,000 calories every day.

Out of desperation, he decided to have weight loss surgery in 2009. Prior to the procedure he was convinced that it would become like all the other failed attempts to lose weight. Chuck was just 27 years old at the time and didn’t believe he would live to see 30. He thought at least he would go to his grave saying he tried everything.

But then the unexpected happened. He woke up from the surgery and never looked back.

Although a critical component, the procedure proved only to be the first step in his journey. In fact, he only attributes 10 percent of his long-term weight loss success to it. The rest he credits to a plant-based diet and changing his lifestyle!

By adopting a plant-based diet, he is no longer afraid of regaining the weight as he had so many times before — no more yo-yo dieting! He is thrilled that he is lowering his risk of cancer and Alzheimer’s Disease, both of which run rampant in his family. As a bonus, he is no longer spending massive amounts of money on medical expenses because of his optimum health!

The confidence he gained from the weight loss enabled him to pursue his dream of becoming a reporter where he covered sports and news for CBS and later NBC News Radio. He was also previously featured in PCRM’s Teaming Up 4 Health campaign where he had the opportunity to speak on Capitol Hill and share his remarkable journey.

Now he is delighted to be bringing his passion and talents to the Physicians Committee as host of The Exam Room and to show others that the impossible is possible — you can get healthy!

Chuck's substack

The Juicy Bits:

1. Fear is a powerful motivator.
2. One Nacho Theory - you can't have just one. Junk food is addictive.
3. Dieting isn't fun. Keep it simple. Protein is important, but fiber is more important. Eat a wide variety of plants and you'll get all the nutrients you need.
4. You can struggle and still perform at a high level. Don't let sickness or setback get in the way of living.
5. Plaque buildup can be reversed!
6. Plant-based eating is not extreme. You can recreate all your favorite recipes in a new way.
7. You will actually taste food and love it, and you won't be plagued with crazy cravings.
8. Start small by replacing one meal per day with a plant-based one. Then, after a week, replace a second. Then by the third week, replace the third.
9. Chuck's favorite foods: black coffee, Blue Zone and Plantstrong meals, popcorn, baked sweet potato with steamed broccoli and black beans and hot sauce, hummus!

5. Neuroplasticity is the ability we all have to rewire the brain and CHANGE.
6. 3/4 of the population will experience imposter syndrome and/or limiting beliefs at some point.

12. The habits that got you to where you are and your success may not be what gets you to where you want to be tomorrow. Check out my part 1 interview the Dr. Jenn Simmons about the environment that got you sick.
13. Life is too short not to continue to explore and offer your gifts and talents.

Ginger's Notes from the Sidelines:

1. We should all have clothing we love. We need to be more discriminating.
2. Veganism is more than what you eat. It's what you wear and the products you use.
3. Wool and silk are not environmentally friendly. Do your research.
4. You can look good in a lot of things, but if you don't feel great, then you won't wear them.
5. A capsule wardrobe doesn't mean white button down and little black dress. It's the streamlined items that you love and can wear interchangeably.

Rachel's Notes from the Sidelines:

1. Social media promotes what you don't have. Get clear on your value system so you're less impressionable on what's missing.
2. A big part of success is not what you know, but resilience. Be the last person standing.
3. Bottom line can't drive a business. It's people first.
4. SPARKLE FACTOR is wanting to leave the world better. Be community-minded, and have a strong rooting of values.
5. Fashion is about authentic self-expression.
6. Women need to stop worrying about being judged by others.
7. What you consume and who you spend time with is how you look at yourself and who you become.
8. Do continual auditing. Ask if a thing or person aligns with you and supports you feeling good about yourself.

Frederique's Notes from the Sidelines:

1. Moments on tv and images in ads and online are created and curated. They are not real.
2. In life, there are moments where you will be at the top of your game, and others where you won't be.
3. Own yourself, especially as you age. Be comfortable with yourself and be proud of yourself.
4. Lessons from her daughter: be present with each other without tech, say sorry, let go of control, and have empathy.
5. You can't always see where things are going to lead, so just be present, curious, and dare to take risks.
6. Find causes that matter to you and give.
7. Talking and listening to each other is key to living a full life. Community.
8. Let's think about how we can do better and preserve resources. Reuse.
9. Compliment people.
10. Don't pretend everything is all good when it's not. Reach out to a friend and ask for help.

Melanie's Notes from the Sidelines:

1. The way we dress ourselves is an extension of our identity. We send a message out about how we see ourselves.
2. When we're not feeling good, we can use clothes as armor, to hide, to pretend we're someone else, and to prove something. My body is wrong and clothes are supposed to fix me.
3. We were taught different isn't good. Belonging means having the same things. A lot of the issues grown women have with clothes stem from childhood.
4. When you determine your values, clothing isn't about being vain... it's helping you be you.
5. There's no such thing as a trend. It's a selling strategy.

Kate's Notes from the Sidelines:

1. Secret hack to getting a job is offer to do anything! Show your value.
2. If there's something else you could be doing that would find most fulfilling, do it. If you aren't getting a f*ck yes, then it's a f*ck no.
3. To chase passions take courage. That doesn't mean you won't feel fear. Feel the fear and do it anyway.
4. Don't think in terms of failure. Think of it as contrast. And learn from the contrast.
5. As long as you have the right gear, you'll be ok in the cold weather.
6. Get yourself some good, true friends who will see your messy and love you anyway.
7. Personal tragedy can lead to pivoting and reinvention. Sometimes the hardest thing is actually the best thing.
8. The quickest way to get over something is to go through it.
9. To deal with hardship: surround yourself with good people, borrow other people's belief in you, and do the work. Ask yourself, "Why am I so glad this is happening in exactly this way at exactly this time?"
10. 95% of success in business is subconscious thoughts and beliefs.
11. To the extent you believe you'll be successful, you will be. We hold ourselves back more than we realize.

Jen Sattler is a midlife unfiltered mama navigating the M word (menopause) and empty nest life, using fashion, beauty, health & humor to get through it all.

Jen's Notes from the Sidelines:

1. Social media offers people the opportunity to talk about uncomfortable things, or at least observe conversations and listen to others.
2. It's important to connect and talk, not hide or think things are taboo. It's how we learn.
3. Empty nesthood and kids getting older naturally changes your life, because you're no longer working around their schedules.
4. You can go on youtube and learn just about anything!
5. Stop overthinking and just start something..
6. There are so many things at your fingertips. If you're not doing something, it's your fault.
7. It's important to have confidence in yourself and not care what everyone thinks.
8. We live in a culture of following masses.
9. It's hard not to get influenced when we see messages over and over again.
10. We live in a world where people have no filter and they're hiding behind a screen. Know that people will comment even without all the facts.
11. With maturity and age comes the confidence to speak up. When you know better, you do better.
12. In midlife, it's important to surround yourself with good friends, and learn to be comfortable in your own skin. If you're happy doing what you're doing, it doesn't matter what other people think.
13. For nervous system regulation, go for a walk, sit outside and read, craft something, or rant on stories.
14. Don't say, "I could never."

Lorraine Hightower is a certified Dyslexia Advocate and founder of a leading educational advocacy practice in Northern Virginia. Combining professional expertise with her personal journey as a parent, she transforms the lives of children with dyslexia by creating personalized educational plans that help them learn and thrive.Her advocacy has shaped state policy - securing mandated teacher training on dyslexia in Virginia - and earned her the “Child Advocate of the Year” award from the Virginia state PTA. Recently, she received the “Cypress Leadership Award” from The Siena School for her instrumental work in securing vital support for children with dyslexia. Featured in Dystinct magazine and a frequent guest on national podcasts, Lorraine and her team provide hands-on advocacy, parent training, and consultation for families nationwide.She holds a Certificate in Special Education Advocacy from William & Mary Law School, is a trained mediator, has been a state leader for “Decoding Dyslexia Virginia,” a past board member of the Virginia International Dyslexia Association, and is a professional member of the Council of Parent Attorneys and Advocates (COPAA). Lorraine is a fierce advocate for individuals with dyslexia, as she relentlessly champions structured literacy interventions, effective accommodations, and the opportunities every child needs to succeed in school and in life.Lorraine's Notes from the Sidelines:

1. Moms know deep down when something isn't right.
2. You could do everything right and still have a child with needs.
3. The special ed process is lengthy and often met with challenge and condescension. It's not that they teachers don't want to help; it's often that they don't have the proper training.
4. 2-4 kids in every classroom are dyslexic. Literacy is a national crisis.
5. Anytime something hard happens, we go through the 5 stages of grief (denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance). The 6th stage is advocacy, because you want to help others avoid your pain.
6. When you get baseline assessment results from school, take initiative to have a conversation with the school.
7. Educational advocacy is unregulated, so do your homework to find the right advocate.
8. Waiting is never the answer.
9. Get emotional behind the scenes, not at a school meeting.
10. We do what we believe is best, so give yourself grace.

Nancy's Notes from the Sidelines:

1. We're not spending enough time talking to ourselves and asking what worked, what didn't, and now what?

3. A great wealth plan includes anticipating health challenges, so that when they happen, you're well-protected.
4. Women should take equal responsibility in finances, because women make 85% of buying decision, and they're making more money than ever.

DR. JENN IS A BREAST SURGEON, INTEGRATIVE ONCOLOGIST, AUTHOR, PODCAST HOST, AND FOUNDER OF PERFEQTION IMAGING. Dr. Jenn Simmons is a pioneering force in the world of breast cancer care. Once a renowned breast cancer surgeon, Dr. Jenn transformed her practice after her own journey as a patient, becoming an integrative oncologist with a mission to revolutionize breast cancer diagnosis, treatment, and screening. DR. JENN is the author of the best-selling book, "The Smart Woman's Guide to Breast Cancer," hailed as a must-read for anyone navigating this challenging journey. As the host of the insightful podcast "KEEPING ABREAST WITH DR. JENN," she shares her expertise and passion for holistic health. Dr. Jenn's Notes from the Sidelines:

1. If you have a diagnosis, small things matter. If you try to change everything at once, it'll be a disaster. Every day, be a little better.
2. What you eat, and when you eat, matters. Sleep is when detoxification happens. Your body can't do it if it's busy digesting food.
3. How you handle stress, talk to yourself, and tell yourself stories matter.
4. Sometimes, we have to amputate. There is more to toxins than chemicals. Recognize them and eliminate them.
5. Health is a journey. You never arrive.
6. When faced with challenges, tell yourself G-d loves you and wouldn't but these things in front of you if he didn't think you couldn't handle them.
7. Try an app to restrict social media usage.
8. The only way to fix a bad habit is to replace it with a better one. Crowd out, instead of cut out.
9. You need to be an educated consumer because social media is filled with quackery. Bad advice is being given by well-intentioned people.
10. Nonprofit does not equal non-sponsored. Nonprofit organizations are an arm of industry.
11. The food pyramid is a disaster. It should be designed with what's necessary to sustain us and optimize functioning. It's not.
12. Hospitals get rated and funded by good cafeteria food. If they served healthy food, patients won't need to return to the hospital, and that's bad for business.
13. If you have clinical disease, get Jenn's book.⁠Jenn's website⁠⁠Jenn's instagram⁠⁠Jenn's podcast⁠⁠Jenn's YouTube⁠Auria test - Use code DRJENN20 to save 20%

As the host of the insightful podcast "KEEPING ABREAST WITH DR. JENN," she shares her expertise and passion for holistic health.

Dr. Jenn's Notes from the Sidelines:

1. 1/3 or more of breast cancer is created unnecessarily by the way we screen. Mammograms are radiation, and repeated radiation causes cancer.
2. 1 in 5 women will have cancerous changes in the breasts, but 1 in 5 women will not die of breast cancer. The vast majority of women with a diagnosis don't die of breast cancer.
3. We are a diagnosis-treat society. More diagnoses = more treatment, but the same number of deaths are happening year after year. We have created an epidemic of disease without improving the quality of life... in fact, we've diminished the quality.
4. In conventional medicine, we're focused on symptoms. And what you focus on grows. The system doesn't want you healthy, because then there's no role for them.
5. Instead of focusing on a tumor, ask why the cancer is there to begin with. What do you have that you don't need and what do you need that you don't have.
6. Breast cancer, or any cancer, is a normal response to an abnormal environment.
7. You can't get healthy in the same environment where you got sick.
8. If you're not sleeping, you're not repairing and healing.
9. Medical school doesn't teach critical thinking. It's fall in line or else, follow the rules or be labeled a quack.
10. We need the foundational things: good food, drink, movement, good thoughts, sleep, detox.
11. It's not whether you fall down, it's if you get up. You can't get up unless you give your body what it needs. We are built to heal and be healthy, but you have to give the body what it needs and take away what it doesn't.
12. Big Pharma makes drugs that make us live longer... but we are not living BETTER.
13. Bioidentical hormones are not talked about, because if you are on them, then you probably don't need the other 10-15 meds you're on.

Brittany Brown is the Founder of Beating Binge Eating, a safe haven where thousands of women have transformed their relationship with themselves, their bodies, and food. After turning her own struggles with weight and binge and emotional eating around, Brittany set out on a mission to create a world where women own their worth, have it easy with food, and walk through the world fueled up by freedom, bliss, and joy in a body they feel confident in. She believes that when women feel at peace with themselves and at home in their body, anything is possible and the ripple effect is unstoppable. With her passion and 12+ years of training, schooling, and experience, Brittany now has the honor of leading over 100,000 Food Freedom Fighters internationally to live a life they love instead of living as a slave to diets, weight, and food struggles as a Speaker, Influencer, and Master Coach.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iambrittanybrownFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/brittanyb.tvYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/brittanybrowntvTwitter: https://twitter.com/brittanybtvwww.instagram.comBrittany's Notes from the Sidesline:

1. Binge eating does not mean fat, lazy, and lacking control. Binge eaters are often people who struggle with perfectionism, control, and body image.
2. Restrictive, conventional dieting can be the gateway to bigger problems of on-track-off-track mentality and guilt and shame.
3. Everything we're worried about in life registers to our nervous system as life or death. We need to create safety and peace within.
4. To deal with stress, Brittany recommends: nourishment, movement, vibration plate, legs up the wall, breathing
5. Even if you're in a meeting, you can do things to regulate your nervous system: deep breaths, 4-7-8 breathing, environmental spot check
6. If there's something you're passionate about, you have to pour into it
7. There's no accomplishment that feels good when you're health is suffering.
8. You never know what's coming... our struggles lead to beautiful growth and opportunity.

Dr. Jody Carrington is a powerhouse speaker and fearless champion for authentic human connection. She is highly sought after for her expertise, energy and genuine approach to helping people solve the most complex human-centred problems. This rapidly disconnected world is leaving so many of us overwhelmed, lonely, and burned out. Dr. Jody boldly believes that all humans have the capacity for good; however, so many of us these days, because of isolation and burnout, have lost access to that good.Dr. Jody’s work often involves understanding just how we got to this disconnected place, what we need to put the pieces back together, and maybe most importantly, how we collectively do "the work" to find our way back home again when (not if) we lose our way. Her authentic, honest, and often hilarious approach never fails to inspire and motivate audiences.

Jody's Notes from the Sidelines:

1. Turning 50 can make you question everything!
2. Historically, everyone has always wanted to keep the facade of having it all together. But with social media, we've never had this much access to comparison.
3. We don't have enough time to defend ourselves if we put anything other than perfection out there.
4. When we get out of our heads and bodies, and tune in to the millions of opinions in the universe, we lose access to the best parts of ourselves.
5. If you are emotionally dysregulated, it doesn't matter how much healthy stuff you do, it's a waste of time. We are not designed to take in the amount of noise we do, so we spend most of our times hyperaroused... in fight or flight... survival mode.
6. We need to get deliberate about spending quality time with others, without the distraction of tech, because we are just not that good.
7. Drop your shoulders, drop your tongue, wiggle your toes. It tells the body you are safe and allows access to generations of wisdom held within.
8. We are neurobiologically wired for connection.
9. Try 5 minutes of stillness per day.
10. If we're not good at emotional regulation, we're probably also not good at apologizing. But we can get better at both.
11. Burnout isn't a function of the work you do; it's a reflection of your capacity, or lack thereof, to refuel.
12. Social media isn't social. You see what aligns with your values and not the other millions of opinions out there.
13. Don't try to address stress when you're in the middle of it.
14. Be kind and don't tolerate BS.

Victoria's Notes from the Sidelines:

1. Women need other women to admire who've gone before and walked the journey.
2. If we truly focus on inner essence, which is love, we'll see that we're all connected. If you have the idea that we're all connected, good things will happen.
3. Yoga means union with ourselves, others, and the divine. If you're paying attention your inner being, then you're a yogi.
4. Meditation is the Swiss-army knife of a spiritual life. Whether you use a mantra or focus on your breath, take time every day, in the morning and afternoon, to do it.
5. Movement includes cardio, strength work, and flexibility. The body-brain connection means that if the body isn't moving, then the brain signals to the body that it doesn't need help. That's bad.
6. Eat food with life force intact. Ahimsa is the first moral tenet of yoga, and addresses nonviolence. Try to eat in a way that is nonviolent, or less violent.
7. The next indicated thing means that we have inner wisdom, but if we overthink and ruminate, then we get lost in thoughts. Just follow the next indicated thing over and over and we're going to change the world.
8. Meditation allows us to make deposits in the spiritual bank. When things are bad, we can make withdrawals. Sometimes we need the help of friends, and even Christian Science practitioners.
9. Do something every day that lights you up. It's not selfish. It's perpetuating the ripple effect of good.

She’s explored over 100 countries on all seven continents, with bylines in USA Today 10Best, The Los Angeles Times, and WIRED. Host of the podcast Make Your Own Map, Lisa inspires audiences worldwide through her bold adventures, powerful storytelling, and passion for reinvention.Lisa's Notes from the Sidelines:

1. Being brave and adventurous have to do with perspective -- how we think of ourselves and the judgement perceived.
2. Small steps lead to big changes.
3. Starting over is hard... no matter how many times you've done it.
4. Like scuba diving, in life, when we have challenges, we need to lean on a buddy. So reach out, take small steps, and find a buddy.
5. You can't do new things in an old way.
6. Acknowledgement and winning is validating, especially when you do your work alone and don't know if it's impactful.
7. Find what makes you happy and do it. It is much easier with the internet to find your people.
8. Travel lets you learn new things and gives you the opportunity for perspective.
9. You can have a travel experience without ever getting on a plane. Explore your own city.
10. Be kind to yourself. It's easy to label yourself a failure, but we don't call a baby a failure when it's learning to walk.
11. When someone says no to you, maybe it means something better is coming.

Trinette Faint is a creative entrepreneur, screenwriter, novelist, and actress. She’s the founder of Chez Faint, a curated networking and retreat company that hosts transformative gatherings across the Globe, of Faint Services Group, a creative consultancy, and of Floor 51 Productions, an entertainment production company. Trinette has upcoming networking events in Rome and New York, with other cities in the works, and is hosting a women’s retreat in Velletri, Italy, in October. She also recently pitched her feature spec at the London Screenwriters’ Festival, to great response, and it's under consideration at multiple production houses. And her novels MidCoast Star and Collette’s Caleb are page-turning escapist romps through the worlds of entertainment and fashion. Collette’s Caleb was loosely inspired by her experience working in the entertainment business, notably at Will Smith’s production company, as Matt Damon’s personal assistant, and for the Tribeca Film Festival.Growing up in Joliet, IL, Trinette began modeling, aged 16, and has since been on the covers of Vogue Knitting magazine, and the book Knitting Out of Africa.Trinette is the first grand prize winner of Harper’s Bazaar’s Fabulous At Every Age contest and she’s been featured on the Today Show, in Harper’s Bazaar, Marie Claire, and Glamour magazines, in addition to other outlets.She has a Feature Film Writing Certificate from UCLA, a BA in Mass Communications from Emerson College, and an MA in Integrated Marketing Communications, also from EmersonCollege.Trinette's Notes from the Sidelines:1. You can't see light without dark.2. Tragedy can give us the space to focus on who we are now.3. We're conditioned to choose stability. If you allow yourself to be who you really are and nurture the itch within, the universe will provide and give you a safety net. It's unpredictable, but you get your life back.4. Be yourself, and don't be scared. But when fear comes in, draw from previous proof. If you stay stuck in fear, you'll never realize or live up to your potential.5. Put yourself in the places the people you want to meet are, so you can be found. It's not going to come to you.6. Choose to put priorities out front, not in the background of your life.
