In episode 10 I sit down with veganism advocate and CEO of Planet Protein Brenden Fitzgerald to talk about his journey into veganism and how to incorporate sustainable options into our daily lives. In this episode, we briefly discuss his journey from high-school to the marines and to where he is today with his business ventures, we talk about the personal health benefits of consuming plant-based foods, we evaluate some common myths in vegan lifestyles, Brenden provides samples of plant-based meals, we discuss how to properly educate someone who is interested in transitioning into living a plant-based lifestyle,  he explains the reasons why/how he created chocolate magic protein powder, and of course he discusses his top 5 sustainable swap outs to be more environmentally conscious. If you enjoyed listening to this episode, please let Brenden and myself know on social media - we would love to hear from all of you.
