In this episode, I sit down with Heather—a badass member of our community—who lowered her cholesterol without meds. Just plants and persistence.

Heather shares how meds were pretty much guaranteed for her cholesterol levels, and why she decided to take a different route. She opens up with honesty, humor, and so much heart about what it’s really been like to make this shift, while juggling a busy family, planning meals, and not being a jerk to herself in the process.

We talk about motivation, obstacles, how to encourage your family without becoming the food police, and what it really takes to make a shift that sticks. Heather’s story is a beautiful reminder that health transformations are possible, without perfection or pressure.
