    21. Predominantly Plant-Based Diets for Babies and Toddlers with Alex Caspero of Plant Based Juniors

    21. Predominantly Plant-Based Diets for Babies and Toddlers with Alex Caspero of Plant Based Juniors

    In today's episode, I had a great conversation with Alex Caspero of Plant Based Juniors. We discussed everything from a predominantly plant-based pregnancy, to feeding babies and toddlers a predominantly plant-based diet. We also discuss the planning of any child's diet, whether plant-based or omnivorous and what we should be looking for.

    PBJ has recently published their book, The Plant-Based Baby and Toddler which we also discuss here. The book helps us parents navigate feeding our kids more plants in a way that works for our families and I think it is a gem!

    20. Eating for Your VALUES: Stop Dieting (Not a Vegan Thing)

    20. Eating for Your VALUES: Stop Dieting (Not a Vegan Thing)

    In today's episode I am discussing a thought I've recently had: eating according to your VALUES. This doesn't only mean ethical values like veganism. I am talking about the things that are important to you - how you feel, your digestion, your weight, etc. 
    I break down what I think it means to eat according to your values and why I think it can be helpful for lots of people struggling to eat in a more healthful way.
    I hope you enjoy!

    19. Keto, Intermittent Fasting & Circadian Rhythm. Yes, No, Why, How?

    19. Keto, Intermittent Fasting & Circadian Rhythm. Yes, No, Why, How?

    Hello! 
    Today I am giving you some details on the ketogenic diet, as well as intermittent fasting. Both of these are very popular wellness trends, so I am here to help you understand each of them, what exactly happens to your body, and how you can avoid letting these trends make you unhealthy and stop you from reaching your goals.
    It's really important to understand the dietary patterns you follow, and not simply follow them blindly without knowing how they affect your body.  What we eat affects so much more than just our weight.

    18. How to Begin Your Fitness Journey

    18. How to Begin Your Fitness Journey

    Hey! In this episode, I share 7 helpful tips for beginning a fitness journey. Regardless of where you are - whether you've never worked out in any capacity before and are looking to start getting more active, or are a gym lover who took some time off - this one is for you!



    There are plenty of reasons to put it off or wait for Monday or the new year or never start, but there are better reasons to begin! I really think these tips will help you see how simple it can be to get started, and help you get past hurdles that keep people from staying consistent. 



    If you are interested in fully planned out workouts for either the gym, dumbbells/minimal equipment, or bodyweight (including a brand new BEGINNER beginner bodyweight option!), sign up and join the Ironbound Training Club for just $12.99 per month with access to all 4 programs! You can do that at www.gohealthfreak.com.



    Enjoy the episode!

    17. Misconceptions & Questions about Plant-Based Diets

    17. Misconceptions & Questions about Plant-Based Diets

    Hello! I am FINALLY back with another episode. I have missed podcasting so much! 

    In today's episode, I am covering 9 common misconceptions or questions people may have about plant-based diets. I'm talking protein, soy, children's nutrition, and more!

    I really hope this helps open up some eyes to this way of eating because I am certain it is the future. Our health and the planet needs it to be more prominent in the future, so the more people learn about this and incorporate these principles in their lives, the better! I'm here to help anyone along the way who wants to take this path.

    I hope you enjoy this episode!
