In order for the world to transition to veganism, farmers need to begin growing plants. On today's episode of Jamie's Corner, I speak with Omaid Hiwaizi about a new organization called Refarm Fund that is helping farms do just that!

Their mission is to convert animal farms to regenerative arable, carbon capture, food innovation and renewable energy. And make more money in the process. This episode sets up the current problems with the farming system today, offers a solution and shares how it will be executed.

I sure learned a lot in this episode and hope you find it helpful as well!

On today's episode, I am joined by health and wellness coach Sarah Rusbatch to discuss alcohol and the grey area of drinking. Sarah is passionately leading the alcohol-free movement in Australia and she is going to share her journey to sobriety, the incredible benefits she has discovered in her new healthy lifestyle and how she ultimately went about quitting drinking for good. 

Perhaps you drink when you feel stressed, when you need to ‘take the edge off’ after a long day at work? Or maybe you only drink when you're out with friends or at a social gathering? It’s possible you also often take extended breaks from drinking, don’t drink every day and no one around you would ever say you have a drinking problem. But inside, you know you aren’t comfortable with how you are using alcohol, you know it’s starting to take more than it’s giving and you know you want to change, or end, your relationship with alcohol. That's where Sarah comes in.

This episode has certainly positively impacted my life and I hope it can do the same for you!
