When a health scare and personal loss collided, Michelle Joy Kramer found a new path—one rooted in healing, purpose, and plants. A PLANTSTRONG retreat alum and concierge health coach, Michelle shares how she shifted from vegetarianism to a whole food, plant-based lifestyle, dramatically improving her health and inspiring others to do the same.

In this episode, Michelle reveals how she:

• Lowered her cholesterol and improved her health in months
• Navigates social settings and restaurants with intention
• Uses tech tools like Garmin for accountability
• Integrates mindfulness and meditation into client care
• Coaches high-powered professionals with compassion and clarity

Michelle’s journey is a powerful reminder that with the right mindset and support, transformation is always possible.
