Have you ever wondered if the small trace of alcohol in most kombucha is a no-go if you’re sober or taking a break from the booze?

Are you thinking about pouring a glass of non-alcoholic wine but decide not to since it just doesn’t feel…right?

From craft beers to alcohol-free vodkas, the options are truly endless. But not everyone feels the same about drinking kombucha or NA drinks when they’re *not* drinking alcohol. 

In this episode, I get personal and talk about kombucha and non-alcoholic beer and wine and the role they have played in my sobriety journey of over seven years.More to read on

When I tell people I eat a whole food plant based diet, I often get responses like:

"You must be really dedicated and committed!"

"How do you not eat cheese???"

Michael Palm, CMO of Complement and No Meat Athlete shares how he reached his low point after 15 years of addiction. He entered treatment and started following a 12-step program. Soon enough, he discovered how alcohol and drugs weren’t his problem but rather his solution. 🤯 His explanation will give you goosebumps. Michael has been sober for over ten years and is loving life enmeshed in wellness and recovery. He keeps it real and explains how just because he’s sober, it doesn’t mean life is easy and how his addiction can manifest in other ways.

This is why my team and Complement (an incredible plant based supplement company I often recommend) have partnered to bring you a 21-Day Dry Challenge. I’ll tell you more in this episode, and you can sign up here to join us!

Whether you’re a fan of faux meat or not, it’s here to stay. In this episode, I offer my perspective on why faux meat can be helpful but not always necessary. Not all faux meats are created equal. There are beef-like burgers that are highly processed, lab-engineered, and designed to look, feel and taste like real meat.

There’s the other end of the spectrum, where faux meat products are minimally processed and made with things like beans, oats, beets, etc. Let’s dive in with this episode!
