The Go-to Podcast for Christians Who Want to Feel Better Naturally with Sustainable Plant-Based Living!
***TOP 55 NUTRITION + FAITH PODCAST*** 280+ episodes filled with simple, natural health tips that work with real life. 🎉

Are you tired of staring into the fridge wondering what to eat so you could just feel better? Don’t have the time to spend hours in the kitchen making tasteless, complicated meals in the name of health? Do you wish that losing weight was enjoyable so you could keep the pounds off for good? Would you love to leave fatigue behind and finally have the energy to do all the things you want to do?

Hey, friend, we are excited you’re here! This health and wellness podcast will help you learn the sustainable way to have nutritious whole food plant based meals you actually love, so you can leave your health struggles behind and feel great each day to fully enjoy life! This isn't your typical plant based diet ...

Hi, we're Jarrod and Anita, homeschooling parents of four, Christ followers, and big fans of great tasting, healthy food.

For years we tried exercising more and eating the foods we thought were healthy, like free range, cage free, no hormone added "natural” and “clean” foods, and yet we both found ourselves feeling the increasing effects of what we thought were changes that come with age or bad genes.

We fought inflammation, ached daily, lacked energy, gained unwanted pounds, and faced a growing list of medical problems that kept us from living the full, active lives we desperately wanted.

Even though we are both health professionals, we weren’t finding answers the traditional route, as it focuses on treating symptoms rather than addressing the root cause of disease.

We knew things had to change because there were so many things we wanted to accomplish and experience in life. It's not just about living long, we want to live well!

We dug into the nutrition research and created the system of simple plant-based meal strategies we could stick with, a lifestyle that makes feeling great each day quick, easy, and enjoyable, and we’re here to share it with you!

If you are ready to:

-> Learn how to make plant-based eating finally "stick"

-> Finally find the way to have your favorite meals that will naturally heal and make you feel better

-> Spend less time dealing with kitchen overwhelm and more time with those you love

-> Discover healthy meal prep ideas that are quick, simple, and delicious

-> Gain undeniable results like lower cholesterol, normal blood pressure, fat loss, decreased bloating, vibrant energy, and the ability to enjoy all that you were created for, this podcast is for you!

We've helped our clients naturally reverse headaches, type II diabetes, joint pain, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, autoimmune disease, reflux, obesity, fibrocystic breast disease, and more...

The great news is that carbohydrates (carbs) are not your enemy and you do not have to give up all the foods you love to feel better. You just need to know how to bust nutrition myths, get your mindset right, correctly set up your environment, and learn how to make healthy vegan eating quick, simple, and delicious. Ready to find your new favorite meals that will love your body back? When you do that, you will soar! 

So grab your favorite plant-based cuppa happy, and let’s have fun living this amazing life together!
