    Worried you are doomed with nutrient deficiency without meat? Plant-based nutritionist, Callum Weir, lays those fears to rest.

    "Everything you need to thrive you can get on a plant based diet"

    Join me and my guest plant-based nutritionist and the proud owner of Yumfu, Callum Weir. His vegan journey began out of ethical considerations, but it quickly evolved as he witnessed firsthand the numerous health benefits of a plant-based diet. This revelation sparked a new passion for nutrition and highlighted the connection between our diet and overall well-being.

    Callum gives us his unique perspective on nutrition as he is from England, but now lives in Australia. Together, we have a great conversation dispelling common myths like our favorite, "you can't get enough protein eating nothing but plants". Welcome Callum!

    Did you go vegan to lose weight? Fitness and Life Coach, Sherry Shaban, explains why its not working

    Did you go vegan to lose weight? Fitness and Life Coach, Sherry Shaban, explains why its not working

    "We all have our own inner doctor"

    This week I welcome, Sherry Shaban, an extraordinary fitness and life coach who’s battled back from the brink of paralysis to transform not only her body but her entire outlook on life. With over 23 years of experience in the fitness industry, Sherry is a renowned expert in the most challenging weight loss cases and has helped thousands of people worldwide transform their health and fitness using her revolutionary method to rewire the brain, release self-sabotaging limiting beliefs, and patterns, and fall in love with fitness so that weight loss becomes easy, predictable, and enjoyable.
    For the first few years of being a gym owner, Sherry felt like a phony. She was frustrated with herself, disappointed and angry for being a “victim” of her circumstances, unable to demonstrate a single squat. But her turning point toward recovery came from understanding that one of the central elements of transformation is to let go of debilitating and self-limiting thoughts, and to begin to rewrite a new story.

    Ignored and dismissed by western doctors, this 30 year old Canadian found her way to a plant-based diet to heal herself. Now she is helping others heal, too.

    "I realize plant-based thinking should be applied to every niche"

    Chanelle grappled with eczema and hormonal chaos for many years. When trying to seek medical intervention she was dismissed by doctors and given little hope her ailments would be resolved. Chanelle took this as a sign to dive into her own research. She also sought more holistic approaches that suggested nutrition could be her saving grace. By removing animal products in addition to some other lifestyle changes, Chanelle was able to heal. Her own journey was so tumultuous, that she was inspired to go back to school and become a Registered Holistic Nutritionist and Functional Hormone Educator in order to help others like herself.
