Bobby's passion is filmmaking, and his projects and connections are beyond impressive. He's now able to implement his new passion of the plant-based lifestyle into his work, and it's only fueling his ambition.

Bobby's story is amazing, and if he looks familiar, it's because he is twin brothers with Adam Sud, who was on The Unlock Wellness Podcast on Episode 099! So back and check out Adam's episode as well! Both of their stories are so inspiring, and the work they are doing to better the world is incredible.

Today's podcast is a special bonus episode. I wanted to add in something extra this week with it being my 100th Episode week. I was thinking about what I could do, and thought it would be a lot of fun to bring in a few other plant-based podcasters in like a rountable setting…super casual, just talking about nutrition, wellness, mindset, whatever comes up. So plant-based podcasters Ian Cramer, from The Ian Cramer Podcast, and Howard Jacobson from The Plant Yourself Podcast, jumped on here last minute with me to record, and it was a lot of fun. We covered a lot about mindset and the effect of physical activity on positivity and focusness, as well as plant-based nutrition, and more. I definitely want to start adding Podcaster Roundtables every other month or so, so be sure to keep me posted what you think!

I hope you love it! And definitely be sure to check out Ian and Howard's podcasts as well!

Adam Sud's story of transformation is incredible. Adam was at 320 lbs, had type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure, was dealing with severe food addiction, and was a drug addict. His life was spiraling out of control to a point of attempted suicide. Adam decided he had to radically change his life if he wanted to live. And that's exactly what he did. He went to rehab, implemented a plant-based diet, and lost 130 lbs. Adam is now educating others, is being featured in upcoming plant-based documentaries, and is giving so many people in similar situations hope.
