My guest today believes in saying yes to saying no. Carley Schweet is a self care coach believes that boundaries might be as healing as berries! Ok, that’s not a direct quote but after hearing how Carley talks about the expense on our emotional, mental and physical wellbeing a lack of boundaries can have on us, you’ll see why adding boundaries to our life can be berry-esque. Carley has been teaching women how self caring the RIGHT way (like not just in the Insta-friendly, sorry, bubble baths...) which has helped her clients break off toxic engagements, improve sleep, ask for raises, quit jobs and learn to be more rebellious.

Before she was the wellness coach she is today, Carley was living in NYC working in the fashion industry and suffering from a major case of burnout. After an ah-ha! moment, she changed directions, launched her coaching business a year later and later became the author of “Boundaries with Soul.” Currently, she lives in a house in the country just outside of Seattle where she has a yard, a 100-plus year old house and even her own chickens. Basically, she knows a thing or two about bold lifestyle changes so open your ears because this gal knows her stuff!

I don’t think there’s a person sweeter, sillier, smarter, and more passionate about the power of plants than Sarah Britton. If you don’t recognize the name Sarah Britton, perhaps saying MY NEW ROOTS will do the trick? Which is the blog name she’s been running for over 12 years and has used to inspire and change lives of hundreds of thousands of people all over the world? Yep! What started as a way for Sarah to simply share all this exciting life-changing healthy stuff she was learning with someone other than her uninterested ex boyfriend, has morphed into a full blown plant-eating movement, complete with an app, two books, retreats and a print shop. I thought we’d just be talking about plants, the subjects in Sarah’s drool-worthy photos, but this conversation led us to a truly holistic chat about health from the ground to the plate to the mouth to the mind! And speaking of mind, prepare for yours to be blown.

You’ll hear:

• Me embarrass Sarah about her site being a .org not a .com! #weirdo
• The farm experience that radically transformed Sarah’s life.
• How it feels to have hundreds of thousands of people cook her recipes in their homes!
• How for her, food styling = self love.
• The pre-eating ritual that changes lives (and improves digestion).
• Her famous recipe that bakeries all over the world make and sell!
• The shocking piece of kitchen equipment Sarah found in her TRASH.
• And loads more!

McKel Hill, a superstar dietician and the founder of the powerhouse wellness brand called Nutrition Stripped has been stripping down the complex topic of nutrition for five epic years now! In those five years, she’s written a cookbook, launched a robust society (not a secret one though), operates a thriving coaching practice, built a shop of super adorbs planty t-shirts and sexy stationary, and has brought knowledge and inspiration to millions and millions of health-seeking peeps. For someone whose senior high school superlative was to be “the Next Picasso,” she’s really been rocking the “next impressive and stylish entrepreneur female judge on Shark Tank” superlative these days, too. Here’s my chat with her about how she balances it all while keeping her body healthy and her plant eating on fleek!

Press play to hear:

• Her never-shared-on-a-podcast-before (I’m assuming...don’t fact check me) story of how she got engaged to a dude with the same name as my engaged dude!
• What she says when people complain about their hubby, roomie, etc. not wanting to also eat healthfully.
• How she created her massive brand “Nutrition Stripped.”
• Why she believes that “nutrition found her.”
• Her food philosophy in a nutshell...which coincidentally involves nuts.
• How to balance balance.
• Why she routinely strives to be uncomfortable (and why I think that’s a key to her major success!).
• Why she also strives to adhere to a morning routine to be comfortable (and why she says that’s a key to HER major success!).
• And lots more.

My guest today is really souper. And the queen of all things sippable and spoonable. Nicole Centeno is the founder of Splendid Spoon, a food delivery company that takes care of meal prep by sending peeps plant-party soups and smoothies so you can slurp up for breakfast and/or lunch and then sit pretty knowing you stole more than your required dose of fruits and veggies by noon. Suck on that, healthy eating is hard mentality! In our chat, Nicole serves more than soup - she dishes out so much wisdom about how simple it can actually be have a packed schedule (she’s juggling a company and two kiddos!) and still pack in the plants. What I love most about this entrepreneurial and enthusiastically health-conscious soup master is that she’s as down to earth as her foods. Nicole opens up about how, back in the day, she used to stress so much about food and her relationship with it. While she was pregnant with her first child, she was going craaaazy about doing everything right and treating eating like it was some sort of mysterious equation. Quickly she learned how those obsessive, worrying thoughts around food didn’t work. [Shocker.] And instead, she discovered how calming down about the whole healthy eating thing and making small, simple changes can radically change a life. [Also shocker.]

Press play to hear:

• How to get your plant party on from morning ‘til noon
• How to soup up your soup game
• Why white knuckling does. not. work.
• Strategies for upping your smoothie game so you’re sipping on high-protein, low sugar blends
• How dinner stress can FINALLY be a thing of the past
• Three reasons that will make soups one of your menu staples forever
• A down-to-earth approach to revamping your relationship with food
• Plus some unlikely secret ingredients for your soups and smoothies that will change your world
• And more!

I totally understand that it might not be your instinct to buy a ton of kitchen gadgets. You might be reluctant to trade your time for money and then trade that money for some unnecessary kitchen tools. Especially after you got that completely unnecessary banana peeler. I get it. But I also get how daunting it can feel to be like “let me just whip up a healthy dinner” and then look at your bare hands and a potato, wondering what to do next. So in this episode, I share the top kitchen tools that, in my plant-party experience, are MUST HAVE’s if YOU want to have healthy meals easily coming out of your kitchen and into your mouth!

My guest today is one of a kind. He’s also just, kind. Dr. Will Bulsiewicz is a speaker, blogger, father, husband, microbiome specialist and a full time practicing Gastroenterologist. Now admittedly, I haven’t had the best experiences with gastro’s - I saw a couple many years ago in the heyday of my digestive struggles and they were not personable, not helpful and nowhere close to being on the “food-affects-your-gut-health” train. So aside from Dr. B’s hilarity, well-spoken-ness and palpable through the phone sincerity for educating and helping heal guts, the fact that he’s as passionate about plants as any person I’ve ever encountered -- which goes back to what I said earlier about him being one of a kind. Aside from being seen in scrubs and colonoscopies at and The Lowcountry Gastroenterology Practice in South Carolina, he’s been featured in Men’s Health, Huff Post, Women’s Health, & Reader’s Digest and hear me when I say his instagram account: @theguthealthmd is a hoot and a half plus an extra half of having helpful information!

Press play to hear:

- Why doctors aren't being taught about food, nutrition, and diet.

- All about the microbiome, baby!!

- The very bad effects of losing gut diversity.

- How stress messes with your digestion. (My favorite topic.)

- The magic of fiber and how it's like a super hero.

- How sad the Standard American Diet really is…

- The #1 one thing we can add to our diets to improve our gut health!

- Advice for raising kids to have healthy tummies.

- A garden analogy to explain probiotics and prebiotics.

- And SO. MUCH. must-hear. MORE. !!

When it comes to giving advice, today’s guest doesn’t hold back. And because of that, she’s back! On my podcast! Because I just can’t get enough of Sarah Knight’s hilariously no BS tough love and her out of the box mind altering metaphors galores. And I’m not alone in not being able to get enough of Sarah Knight, considering she’s, like, an internationally best selling author of 3 - going on 4 - books!

In case you missed my first chat with Sarah back in episode 70, you should know that this funny lady and super likeable human is most well known for her first book called “The Life changing Magic of Not Giving a Fuck,” which has had readers from around the world LOLing while taking away magical lessons in saying bye to unwanted obligations. She’s also the hit writer of “Get Your Shit Together” and “You do You” - guides that hand hold you through making big life changes and embracing your imperfections. Now, Sarah has another work hitting shelves and kindles called “Calm the Fuck Down” and it’s another pee your pants funny and uncensored guide to… well, calming the fuck down.

Needless to say, this chat has a lot of unbleeped bleeps in it, as well as unbelievably awesome advice on how to stop overthinking, go easy on your freak outs, stop stressing about the uncontrollable, and just let shit goooooooo….

Since I have technology to remind me of all the podcast episodes that hit your earbuds in 2018, (thank you a mundo for listening, by the way!) I wanted to shimmy through the highlights of this year. The following 18 things are things I heard on my show this year that made me go WOAH.

These are facts that stopped me in my tracks, ideas that made me think a little differently, tips that helped me eat a little differently or were just catchy, coo, clever ways my guests phrased something I already knew to be true.

My guest today believes we can save our health, our waistline AND the planet in one foul swoop...or swap..of one meat-based meal for a plant-based meal every day. Suzy Amis Cameron, an actress, environmentalist, and mom of five is hard at work on saving the world with her husband, James Cameron, known in this chat as Jim and known on IMDB as the genius writer, director and producer behind Avatar, Terminator and Titanic. Together, they’ve founded a number of environmental organizations and are mega-passionate about exposing and reducing the impact of animal agriculture on climate change and the environment. She’s the author of a new book called OMD: Changing the World by Changing One Meal a Day (hence the OMD) and OMG, this chat is an eye opener.
