Happy rewind week, curious friends! Today, I'm reaching back into Season 2 to bring you one of the most-listened-to and beloved conversations we've ever shared—my chat with the incredible Corey Davis.

And honestly? This one deserves a second listen.

Corey is a true force of nature—a passionate champion for environmental sustainability and animal rights who walks the talk every single day. In this episode, we sit down for a heartfelt conversation about his personal evolution into advocacy, and how his journey became deeply intertwined with the urgent issues of our time: climate crisis, social injustice, and the power of our plates.

What I love most about this conversation is how Corey connects the dots. He shows us—with so much warmth and clarity—how the way we eat isn't just about personal health. It's about land use. It's about agriculture. It's about the future of our planet. And the best part? He doesn't make it feel heavy or overwhelming. He makes it feel possible.

One moment that stuck with me (and clearly stuck with so many of you too) was when we talked about how something as simple as sharing a plant-based meal with a friend can be a quiet but powerful act of change. When we diversify our food supply and open our tables to others, we're not just feeding bodies—we're feeding curiosity, connection, and hope.

Corey left us with such an uplifting message that day, and I still carry it with me: each of us holds incredible power to shape a sustainable future, one mindful choice at a time.

So whether you're hearing this for the first time or the third time, settle in. Get inspired. And remember—you can make a real difference, one plant-based step at a time.

Thanks for rewinding with me. Let's keep growing together.

This episode is one for the books, friends. I am still buzzing from this conversation with Dr. Tumi Johnson, and I have a feeling you will be too. There are some interviews that stay with you long after the mic turns off, and this was absolutely one of them. Dr. Tumi brought a level of depth, vulnerability, and wisdom that I found myself completely pulled into—and I can't wait for you to experience it.

Dr. Tumi is a physician of over 20 years, a dance performance artist, and the author of Delicious Healing. She shares her incredible personal journey of using a plant-based lifestyle to heal severe depression, lifelong asthma, and eczema. We dive deep into why plant-based living is a game-changer for disease reversal, how she guides her patients to their healthiest selves, and the surprising, powerful role that art—specifically dance—plays in the healing process.

We also tackle the emotional side of the journey, including why we often choose comfort food over self-love, how to navigate family gatherings, and the courage it takes to truly choose yourself.

This conversation was deeply nourishing for my soul, and I hope it will be for yours too. Tune in, and let me know what lands for you.

I used to live with chronic digestive issues myself, so I know how overwhelming it feels when your body seems to betray you after every meal. That's why I'm so excited to bring you this conversation with Hannah Aylward a functional gut health practitioner who has helped hundreds of women heal their IBS, bloating, and food sensitivities by getting to the root cause.

In this episode, Hannah shares her own seven-year struggle with gut issues and reveals why eating "all the right foods" isn't always enough. We dive into the hidden culprits behind IBS, the truth about PPIs and antacids, and why plant-based eaters can actually worsen their symptoms without the right strategy. Plus, she shares simple, non-food habits that can transform your digestion starting with your very next meal.

If you've ever felt embarrassed, overwhelmed, or just tired of guessing which foods will set you off this episode is for you. You're not broken. You just need a better strategy.
