Choosing yourself through food, grief, and purpose (Ms. FitVegan Preview)

In this preview episode leading to the conversation with Jeanette aka Ms. FitVegan we open with a raw truth: we live in a world where food lasts longer than relationships, obesity is at an all-time high, attention spans are shrinking, and people are confused why their bodies feel inflamed, tired, and disconnected. What we eat has become fast, fake, and cheap and it’s quietly shaping our gut, our energy, and our identity. This episode isn’t about perfection or extremes... it’s about awareness, balance, and understanding what food is actually teaching the body. CLICK HERE TO CONNECT WITH MS FITVEGAN Jeanette, aka Misfit Vegan, shares parts of her story.. being depressed and suicidal at 26, nearly 200 pounds at 5’2”, struggling with cystic acne, and willing to try anything after every diet failed. Her journey into raw food wasn’t about trends, it was about survival. Through learning how to choose food intentionally, she built a foundation that restored her health, shaped her discipline, and eventually became her brand. From investing her severance into learning and travel, to volunteering at fruit festivals, to now running the largest fruit festival in the world, Jeanette’s story shows how healing, education, and consistency can turn lifestyle into purpose. This preview also touches on grief, loss, and contribution. Jeanette lost her mother, sister, and grandparents, and caring for her sister deeply shaped her discipline and direction. Food became a way to honor life, not numb pain. Her story reminds us that choosing yourself isn’t about raw food versus cooked food .. it’s about whether you’re willing to live differently so your future doesn’t look like your past. The Choose Yourself process shows up the same way every time: triggers wake us up, environment shapes us, foundation keeps us steady, investment creates energy, and contribution gives it meaning.
