In this episode of The OrganiMama Podcast, we’re diving into veganism with Dawn Lusk, who spent eight years fully devoted to the lifestyle. She shares the heart behind her decision — the identity, purpose, and conviction it gave her — and how persistent health challenges eventually invited her to look deeper. We talk about what long-term plant-based living can mean for the body, minerals, hormones, and overall vitality, and why nutritional awareness and bio-individuality matter more than any dietary label.

Dawn also opens up about the humbling journey of reintroducing animal foods after years without them, and why doing so gently was essential for supporting digestion and healing. We discuss the role of deeply nourishing foods, how functional blood work and HTMA testing revealed mineral imbalances that standard labs missed, and the emotional layers that can be wrapped up in food choices. This conversation is about tuning in, honoring your body’s signals, and finding grounded, sustainable nourishment that truly supports long-term wellness.
