Our very first guest! Dr Vicky Armitage, ecologist. horse owner and vegan chocolatier

When Vicky agreed to have a chat with us we were ecstatic ! Vicky is a scientist in her own right and as she shares with us her journey with her much beloved horse Max, the lessons they learned and the influences those lessons brought, open up and show just how intrenched Vicky's scientific background is with the various problem solving hoops she needed to find a way through.To say Vicky is generous with her knowledge and experience is an understatement and yet we know there is so much more, especially as she was and is desperate to shed more light onto one or two of her many passions such as gut health and the horses microbiome, way too much for just this one conversation, so we really hope Vicky will return and we can expand more into those areas which form such a passion for her.Now, to the vegan chocolate! Always inspired by nutrition and its effects on all of us, humans and animals alike, Vicky has created https://www.merakicacao.com/ where you can browse and salivate over all Vicky's creations that she  has to offer and why not save this episode until you can "savour" (get it)? a bar or three as you listen? that should give you something to chew over, (get it)? :-) ok sorry! I'll stop Please pull up a chair or keep your eyes on the road and we hope you enjoy!
