The Better Show welcomes Danielle Laporte, a best selling author, business strategist and poet to chat with us about how to live our lives through love and forgiveness. We begin our podcast discussing the hyper polarization in society post-pandemic, the polarization in our relationships, and the ego within that is coming to the surface. How holding onto the hate and frustration is unhealthy, and will negatively impact others around you whom you may hold dear. Learning to forgive, even if it doesn’t come naturally to you, may be the way forward. Danielle touches on embracing your inner child not in the traditional way, as well and letting the virtue signallers virtue signal. We wrap up this in depth discussion by chatting about Religion and Spirituality, and how you can pick up Danielle’s new book “ How to Be Loving: As Your Heart Is Breaking Open and Our World Is Waking Up”. Thanks to Danielle for coming on the show, we cannot wait until the next one.

The Better Show welcomes Diana Rodgers, a registered dietitian and co-author of the wildly popular book “Sacred Cow: The Case for (Better) Meat: Why Well-Raised Meat Is Good for You and Good for the Planet”. Diana is a real food nutritionist and a sustainability advocate in Boston, hosts a podcast called “The Sustainable Dish Podcast” and runs her own clinical nutrition practice. We begin the episode by talking about the stigma around meat consumption and what and why our governments have such influence on eating red meat. We discuss the american diet and a brief history of Kellogg’s impact on society at the beginning of it’s breakfast cereal reign in the food industry. Diana explains the misconceptions around methane creation from livestock compared to other industries and it’s impact on greenhouse gasses. How the myriad of plant based products actually use fossil fuels to be created, and how us humans with our diet and nutrition can alter our carbon footprint. Perceptions of what healthy looks like, pushing veganism in public schools and the virtue signaling being put on display on the daily is doing the planet a disservice. We weigh the balance of animal death, our own death as humans, and what animals we save compared to others. We finish today’s episode with Diana diving deeper into alternative protein sources, and how they may benefit us as humans, or perhaps leaving us dissatisfied by crickets and insect protein.

Dr. Mindy Pelz is becoming a fan favourite here on the Better show! She has been a guest a few times and we have a blast everytime we chat with her, plus some giggles. Mindy has just released her new book “Fast Like a Girl”, and how the female side of fasting is pretty different from the much documented male side of fasting. We talk about fasting and diet culture for teens, and how the menstrual cycle may be more complicated for our daughters in their later teens. We chat about navigating the topic of the birth control pill as a parent, and what the implications of that. We do an overview of the arch of a woman’s menstrual cycle over her life and how we can fast differently during different parts of it. Mindy weighs into the benefits of fasting for women, how it differs from the traditional and male approaches. We always have a ton of fun when Mindy comes on the show, so we hope you enjoy!
