    The Best Plant Based Recipes, Food Trends and Positive Nutrition with Desiree Nielsen

    Hey Friends!
    Desiree Nielsen is BACK! Any chance we get, we love chatting with Desiree and today's conversation is a good one! We dive into her new book "Plant Magic" and here her why behind creating it, and how the, her latest cookbook has some unique offerings and was born out of her wanting to create something accessible, enjoyable, and delicious for everyone!
    Desiree is a wealth of knowledge, a curious learner, and one hell of a recipe developer! When she is not elbows deep in recipe creation, speaking at a conference, or meal prepping healthy and delicious food for her own family, Desiree can be found supporting individuals to take charge of their health, through offering plant-based approaches to healing and restoring gut-health in her practice as a Registered Dietician.
    We were so grateful to spend some time with Desiree, hearing about her new cook book "Plant Magic" and so much more. We know you're ready to dive into this episode, just like you'll be ready to dive into the recipes she has on offer!
    Enjoy

    Groupthink, Surrendering and Aging with A Little More Good

    This week we caught up with our pal Ally Maz and got into all things self-discovery, personal growth and cosmic exploration. From deep reflections to wondering if aliens exist, this one has it all. We dive into questioning the status quo, the power of alone time,facing fears, finding peace in solitude, setting goals and chasing dreams, living with purpose, redefining aging and so much more goodness. We hope that this one helps you find peace in the chaos of life and is a reminder that sometimes the best adventures happen when you're alone with your thoughts.

    Exploring nuance, mirror work and triggers as teachers with Caroline Boquist

    Exploring nuance, mirror work and triggers as teachers with Caroline Boquist

    Hey Friends,
    We are excited to share this episode with you all. We sat down with the one and only Caroline Boquist. Caroline is the co-founder of Walrus Design Inc. A contemporary lifestyle boutique selling unique products for you, your loved ones and your home. In her professional and personal life, Caroline is the perfect mixture of kindness, curiosity, wisdom, creativity and connection. She is someone who you immediately feel comfortable around and has such a knack for inviting reflection and introspection, which is exactly where this conversation went.
    We chatted about mirror work, seeing ourselves and situations for what they really are, and allowing what we see to inform our steps forward. We also spoke about the many changes we have seen in the world from how we engage with one another as peers, parents, and people in general with the rise of hyper-digital connection that is a far cry from human to human interactions.
    Caroline weaves her story of through the themes of this conversation, as we learn about her as well as ourselves through her thoughtful responses, observations, and questions.
    Enjoy Friends,
    Z&D

    Echo Chambers, the pursuit of being wrong, and Podcast updates with Zach & Dean

    Hey firends
    we're taking a moment to update you all about a few exciting developments and evolutions of the podcast! We have always wanted A Little More Good to be a place of exploration, personal development, and a landing pad for all our curiosities, rabbit holes, and interests as they have grown, expanded and changed over the years. We have absolutely LOVED how you all have embraced this journey of ours, and quite frankly we are just getting started.
    We are very excited to share some of the new ideas we've been incubating, and can't wait for you all to come along for the ride as ALMG embraces new voices, divergent perspectives, 'hot topics' and even more of us following what lights us up!
    As always, we are forever grateful for all of your support, feedback, time and attention.
    Much love,
    Z&D

    The Disaster of Normal with Guru Singh and Tiaga Prem

    The Disaster of Normal with Guru Singh and Tiaga Prem

    We are very excited to share this conversation with two AMAZING humans. We sat down and chatted with Ashtanga Yoga Teacher and friend of the pod, Tiaga Prem and legendary spiritual teacher, leader, mentor and musician Guru Singh.
    This conversation was truly inspirational as we talked about Guru Singh's journey from the San Francisco bay area, to sharing the stage with some world class artists and musicians, to a transformative journey into the majestic copper canyons of Chihuahua Mexico. Through sharing his incredible stories we followed the spirit of the conversation and explored themes like, rites of passage, the loss of meaningful transitions into community, the disaster of out current state of "normal" and how striving to mute ourselves for the sake of fitting in is the worst possible thing we could do.
    Guru Singh and Tiaga Prem bring a double dose of humility and wisdom, levity and depth as we journey through this enlightening conversation.
    We are so grateful for their wisdom, and guidance, and we are honoured to share this episode with you all.
    Z&D

    We Are All Born to Run with Christopher McDougall

    We Are All Born to Run with Christopher McDougall

    This was one of our FAVOURITE convos of all time so we just had to reshare it with you. If you aren't already a super fan of best-selling author Christopher McDougall you will be after this episode. Chris brought all kinds of passion, energy, enthusiasm and curiosity into the conversation. Which, we're pretty sure is just how he exists on this planet. He is truly an inspiration in the way he looks at the world, allows his curiosity to lead him, and his desire to unearth the untold and yet beautiful stories no one else is looking for.
    We have both been deeply inspired by Christopher's work, specifically his book "Born to run" had a tremendous impact on us as runners, would be adventurers, and lovers of great stories... If you have yet to check it out, be sure to grab a copy and give it a read, you WILL NOT be disappointed!
    I left a brief description of the book below, to whet your appetite!
    But we KNOW you are going to be inspired by Christopher, and this conversation!
    Enjoy,
    Z&D

    Article: Born to Run- Secrets of the Tarahumara
    Book: Born to Run by Christopher McDougall
    "Born to Run" by Christopher McDougall is an epic story that explores the hidden tribe of the Tarahumara people in the remote Copper Canyons of Mexico, who are known for their incredible long-distance running ability. The book also delves into the science behind running and how humans are biologically designed to run long distances.
    In the book McDougall discusses the idea that modern running shoes with thick soles and excessive support may actually be causing more harm than good, and that a more natural approach to running may lead to fewer injuries. McDougall also presents the argument that humans are evolved to be able to run for long distances, citing studies that show humans are the ultimate endurance athletes.
    Overall, "Born to Run" is a fascinating exploration of human evolution and the potential for human endurance, as well as a riveting adventure story that introduces readers to a unique and inspiring community of runners.
