Customer Reviews
Outstanding podcast!!
Thank you so much for superb, practical information! Has added tools to my nutritional toolkit. Loved the info in transforming lawns to pollinator garden. Thanks!!
Cozy podcast
I love this podcast! Being a vegan is hard in a harshly nonvegan world, but Toni and Michelle’s spirits lift you up and they both share such great values. They are sweethearts and have great guests on their podcasts! Love love love 💕
Motivating for a Plant-Based Lifestyle
I just found this podcast a few months ago and have been binge listening ever since. I listen to the new episodes as they come out, then go back and pick up where I left off with the older ones. I LOVE this podcast. I’m not yet caught up all the way, but I have a lot to say!
This is truly like having 2 vegan friends who discuss all things related to veganism. Consuming plant-based media helps keep me motivated as I have no vegan friends IRL.
This podcast is truly evergreen and even the first episodes from years ago have info that can be used now.
I love Toni. I love how she is always complimentary to Michelle, lifting her up and celebrating her.
I agree with Michelle and would banish Uggs from existence.
Toni - I don’t go on Nextdoor anymore either. It’s a snake pit.
Since you asked in your 11/1 episode, I am a middle-aged woman with no kids (by choice), just trying to make healthy, yummy, whole food plant based meals for my husband and myself.
Constructive feedback- please don’t piggyback on each other’s questions to guests. I’ve noticed multiple times where the guest doesn’t remember all that was asked and the questions go unanswered. And sometimes I really want to know those answers.
Thank you for an amazing resource!
