  • 239. I Tried 3 Ways to Grow Cover Crops—Here's What I'd Do Now

    If you never thought cover crops were for small backyard gardens, this episode is for you.


    Dive into the FREE Soil Challenge I created for you: https://soulyrested.com/cover/


    Michelle shares what she's learned after experimenting with 3 different ways of using cover crops in her own garden over the past 6 years—including what worked beautifully, what she didn't love, and the method she's currently using.


    You'll learn how cover crops can improve soil health, add organic matter, support the living organisms in your soil, and help set your garden up for a more productive growing season.


    And if you live somewhere with a short growing season, don't assume cover crops aren't practical for you. Michelle talks specifically about the challenges of gardening in a colder climate and how she's adapted her approach.


    Most importantly, this episode will help you see that you don't need a huge garden, acres of land, or a complicated system to start improving your soil. Even a small garden—or containers on your back deck—will benefit when you start thinking differently about your soil.

  • 238. This Might Be the Best Food News I’ve Heard All Year

    This episode is a little different from the discouraging food-industry news we often hear. This is an encouraging story about what happens in real world examples of replacing ultra-processed food with fresh, whole foods.

    You’ll hear what several military bases are doing differently, why soldiers are actually lining up to eat the new food, and the surprising numbers showing that feeding people better may actually cost less, not more.

    If you've ever thought that real food is too expensive, too complicated, or impossible to serve on a large scale, this episode offers a powerful real-world example that may change the way you think about real food forever.

    And perhaps most encouraging of all, it's a reminder that real food can win when we make it delicious, accessible, and worth choosing.

  • 237. What my dog taught me about gratitude

    This episode of Simple Doesn't Mean Easy is for anyone who feels like they're carrying too much, thinking too far ahead, or struggling to find gratitude in a difficult season.

    Two very different stories uncover a surprisingly simple lesson about gratitude.

    Sometimes we need to step back and see the bigger picture. Other times, looking too far ahead only makes us feel more overwhelmed, and we need to focus on the one simple step directly in front of us.

    As you listen, you'll be encouraged to look closer about the season you're currently in.

    You'll walk away with a simple mental framework you can return to whenever life feels overwhelming—and hopefully a renewed awareness of the small, beautiful things that are already happening right in front of you.

  • 236. A Wheat Farmer Reveals What’s Really Happening in Your Flour

    What if milling your own flour is only part of the story?

    If you're going to the trouble of buying a grain mill and making fresh-milled flour for your family, have you ever stopped to wonder where those wheat berries came from and how they were grown?

    In this episode, we’re going behind the scenes of a regenerative organic family farm with sixth-generation farmer Jade Koyle of Grand Teton Ancient Grains in Idaho.

    Jade shares what actually happens in the fields where your wheat is grown—and I think you're going to look at your flour very differently after this conversation.

    You'll come away from this episode with a better understanding of your wheat, your flour, regenerative farming, ancient grains, and why knowing your farmer might be one of the most important steps you can take when you're trying to improve the food you're feeding your family.

    Your flour doesn't begin in your kitchen.

    It begins in the soil.

    And once you understand what happens there, you may never look at a wheat berry the same way again.

    How much do you actually know about the coffee you're drinking every day?


    In this episode, we sit down with Tiffany Gardner, COO of Java Planet Organic Coffee Roasters, to uncover what we should really be looking for when choosing coffee.


    You'll discover:

    - how organic certification works,

    - why shade-grown and bird-friendly coffee matter,

    - how farming practices can affect the quality of your coffee,

    - why mold and heavy-metal testing has become such an important conversation.


    You'll also discover something that might completely change the way you think about decaf coffee.


    Most importantly, this episode will help you become a more informed coffee shopper. Instead of being overwhelmed by labels and marketing claims, you'll walk away knowing which questions to ask, what certifications to look for, and why knowing the source of your coffee matters.


    Because just like the food we put on our tables, the quality of what we put in our morning cup definitely matters.

  • 234. What the FDA’s New Food Chemical Proposal REALLY Means

    What if the solution to America's food problems isn't waiting for the government to fix what's on grocery store shelves?


    In this episode, we delve into the confusing world of GRAS—“Generally Recognized as Safe”—ingredients and explain what a new FDA proposal could actually mean for the chemicals, additives, preservatives, dyes, sweeteners, and other ingredients making their way into our food.


    But more importantly, we look beyond the headlines and understand why food reform is so complicated—and why simply celebrating a government announcement may not be enough.


    You'll come away with a clearer understanding of what's happening, why there are still so many loopholes, and what you can actually do right now to make a difference for your family.


    And the answer isn't throwing away everything in your pantry. It's taking one simple step at a time: becoming more informed, making one better substitution, learning to make more foods yourself, and ultimately using your purchasing power to tell food companies what you want.

  • 233. The 5 Habits That Actually Matter

    Feel like you're never doing enough?


    If you look around at what everyone else is doing and feel overwhelmed by all the things you should be doing—eating better, exercising more, sleeping more, taking care of your family better, improving your home, growing your food, building better habits, deepening your relationships—you may need this reminder: you don't have to do it all.


    Today we're breaking down the 5 pillars that need your attention. Just 5.


    But more importantly, we're talking about how to make progress without turning healthy living into another source of stress.


    If you're in a difficult season, or a waiting season, this episode's for you too. Sometimes we're so focused on the next thing that we fail to recognize how far we've already come. And sometimes the season that feels like it's breaking us is actually preparing us for what's next.


    You'll be encouraged to slow down, notice the good that's already in your life, take one small step at a time, and focus on what's right in front of you instead of worrying about everything else.


    And don't miss the final section, where Michelle dives into the surprising physical and mental benefits of gratitude and shares what she feels is truly the greatest ways to simplify everything.

    About Michelle Visser


    Hi, so nice to meet you! I’m Michelle, a former processed food junkie turned real-food enthusiast.


    My husband and I live on a small New England farm and sugarbush with a lot of gardens. But I’m passionate about helping folks have more real food in their lives, no matter where they live. No farm or garden required.
