Think you need a $90 protein powder and a boutique gym membership to build muscle on a vegan diet? Think again. In this episode of Joy Unfiltered, I’m busting the myth that strength gains require deep pockets. With 25 years of plant-based living under my belt - and muscles built during broke, busy, and just plain chaotic seasons - I’m sharing exactly how you can get strong without going broke.

What You’ll Learn:
💪 The 5 budget-friendly habits that fuel real plant-based muscle
🥦 How to shop smart (yes to bulk bins, no to $7 jerky)
📅 Why a loose meal plan saves you more than just time
🏋️ The minimalist workout gear that actually gets results
🍛 How batch cooking keeps your macros and money on point
✨ Plus, some good ol’ mindset truth bombs (as always)
