Chef Annette (AKA That Veggie Gurl) has such an incredible story. At 29 years old, after being misdiagnosed with Crohn's Disease, she soon realized that what was actually making her so sick was stage 4 cancer. Annette was given very little time to live, and was completely shocked that this could be happening to her at such a young age. She became obsessed with researching ways that she could improve her quality of life and increase her health. It was through this research that she discovered a plant-based diet and the power that food has to heal the body. Doctors were shocked as each test result slowly improved, and she is now completely cancer free. Her story is amazing, and she has dedicated her life to help teach as many people as possible how powerful what we put on our plate truly is.

Excited to share our conversation!

Jennifer Bartels is an actress, producer, and writer known for TV shows like Broken, Friends Of The People, and will be co-staring in the show American Woman, alongside Alicia Silverstone and Mena Suvari, which makes it's premiere on the Paramount Network on June 7th.

But not only is Jennifer an incredibly talented actress, she is also passionate about health and fitness, even with her crazy schedule. She has overcome a lot in her life, but learning this past year that she has Type 1 Diabetes, has definitely made her stronger and even more resilient. I love how Jen is using her platform to create more awareness about the importance of truly caring for your body, and excited to watch the positive impact that she makes.

She went from having pain just from walking, and even issued a handicap parking permit, to a year later signing up for her first triathlon. Tracy has lost 80 lbs, and now is in love with her life and hopes to inspire others with her story.
