Did You Bring the Hummus? with Kimberly Winters Kimberly Winters

Today, I am joined by Kathy Davis of VegInspired. Kathy is a plant-based lifestyle and mindset coach, a Meal Planning Expert, the CEO of VegInspired, and the author of three cookbooks: The 30-Minute Whole-Food Plant-Based Cookbook, The Super Easy Plant-Based Cookbook, and The Budget-Friendly, Plant-Based Diet Cookbook, and a co-author of one personal development book: Absolute Vision. Kathy is on a mission to educate, inspire, and empower others about the power of plant-based eating in living thriving and successful lives. She operates on two primary mottos: 1) Eat More Plants and 2) Intention over Perfection.



Kathy has been eating and creating vegan meals for more than nine years. Over the past 4 years, she shifted her daily habits to follow a whole-food, plant-based lifestyle. She experienced amazing results: renewed energy, 50-pound weight loss and maintenance, a newfound sense of joy, and a healthier mind and body! One tool that she used consistently to make plant-based eating a sustainable way of living was meal planning. She founded the Meal Plan Accountability Club to help others become efficient and effective meal planners.



Kathy is dedicated to providing women (and men) with the resources to Eat More Plants. She is eager to guide others on their journey so that they can make a more significant impact in the world.



Fun fact: Kathy and her husband, John, are living their plant-based dream while simultaneously traveling the United States in an RV with their cats. They've been to 33 states and 24 national parks so far and have a goal to visit all the US national parks!

In our chat we cover Kathy’s vegan journey, RV living, meal planning, her coaching programs, diet culture, human design, and more…oh, and hummus of course too!

Today, I am joined by Lisa Rimmert of On the Nose. Lisa is a standup comedian and writer based in the Seattle area. In 2021, she launched her company, On The Nose, LLC, through which she helps to change the world through effective and humane communication. Current and past clients have included Beyond Carnism, Farm Forward, Woodstock Farm Sanctuary, and Volunteers of America. Lisa published her first book, a memoir, in 2022. Titled Stay: My Forever Friendship with an Aging Dog, it earned her a prestigious award for Best First Book from the Independent Book Publishers Association. She's currently working on a second dog-related memoir. When she's not writing, Lisa can be found telling jokes to audiences at bars and clubs around Seattle and beyond. A lifelong animal advocate, the topic of animals and their well-being serves as a through line connecting all of Lisa's projects.

Lisa and I became fast friends, which I think will be pretty clear as you listen to this episode. The only thing stopping us from getting up to regular shenanigans is the fact that we live on opposite sides of the country. 

I had the pleasure of reading her book Stay after Lisa and I recorded this episode so I’ll share my thoughts now. Buy the book, if you’ve ever loved a non-human animal you’ll find parts of yourself in this book. It brought me back to moments with my senior cat Cookie, that first moment you realize they’re a senior and each moment after. Lisa so beautifully captures her experience and friendship with beloved Dakota. It’s a beautiful and poignant tale I feel lucky to have read.

Today, I am joined by Dr. Elisa Beth Haransky-Beck of Enlivening Consciousness. Dr. Elisa has been a Holistic Eye doctor specializing in optometric vision and movement therapy as well as natural vision improvement since 1987. Elisa has practiced raw living plant-based foodism on and off since 2012 and the Spiritual Nutrition lifestyle since 2015. One of Elisa’s volunteer passions is with Vegan Spirituality-Southwest PA which she founded in early 2019. She teaches EmbodyVision Yoga on Zoom to elders from around the world and is a Spiritual Nutrition counselor with a Master’s degree in Spiritual Nutrition.

This is a great conversation around eye health, some surprising connections between eye health and movement (surprising for me, anyway!), and of course, Elisa’s book. Elisa guides us through a brief meditation, don't worry, we tell you when it starts so if you’re driving you may want to skip this section and come back to it once you’re stationary.

Today, I am joined by Adam Kelly of Green Edge Health. Adam offers diet-focused life coaching, empowering his clients to build a healthy relationship with food and use it as a tool to thrive, rather than cope. Adam himself struggled with emotional eating or using food to cope with the internal and external struggles in his life. He’d fall into negative habits and constantly feel trapped in a cycle of unhealthy eating that always made life that much harder. That was until he studied the power of life coaching and mindset work. He discovered that the unavoidable routine of food could be harnessed to seek out and resolve difficulties in his life that were holding him back. The strategies he learned turned his life around for good and he’s never felt stronger or healthier and now it’s his life's mission is to pass this on to to his clients and you, the listener. Too many of us struggle with food in one way or another and it feels like an overwhelming nightmare that affects every area of our lives. It doesn't need to be this way and Adam has the solution for you.

Adam walks us through how powerful our mindset is, how as mentioned in his bio, food can be a tool to thrive, why it matters to pay attention to the food messages you receive from those you love and the corporations who want you to buy their food, why some foods are crazy addictive, and more!

Today, I am joined by Katrina Fox Storytelling Consultant at Vegan Business Media.

From her bio: Katrina is a storytelling consultant, personal brand coach and award-winning author of Vegan Ventures: Start and Grow an Ethical Business, the first global book providing success strategies for aspiring and existing vegan business owners. During her journalism career she’s written extensively for niche and mainstream media for more than 25years on animal advocacy and ethical business and was a regular Forbes contributor specializing in writing about vegan and plant-based businesses. A vegan of 28years, Katrina helps ethical business leaders, entrepreneurs and change-makers to find, craft & share the stories to inspire, influence & impact their audiences. She loves glitter, sequins, and disco. 

The love for story-telling runs through this episode as we both nerd-out about it, its so good. 

We discuss finding your origin or journey story, different types of story-telling, how story-telling can make even the most boring things interesting, and knowing when to not tell a story.

Some takeaways:


Uncover your origin story


Consider your audience - create a story bank - you'll use difference stories in different situations


Collect your customers stories


Write your brand story
