It’s been three years since I started this podcast, and I’m reaching back to share the episode that started it all;a conversation that captures why I created this space.I sit down with Yvonne Pierre of Let’s Talk Healing to talk about my own journey from sickness to plant-based living. I open up about struggling with hypertension and gut issues at a young age, and how a doctor’s visit revealed that my food was at the root of it all. That moment sparked a shift that went far beyond diet, it led me to a vegan philosophy that opened my heart to animals and the environment.This episode also shares the story behind the Plant Based Curious community I launched in 2021 (which closed in 2024). Though the community is no longer active, the podcast remains a welcoming space to explore plant-based living without pressure or judgment.Whether you’re new or have been here from the start, I invite you to listen (or listen again).
