This week on the podcast, we speak with Kathy Davis, a plant-based lifestyle coach, recipe developer, and CEO of VegInspired. Kathy helps people to successfully transition to a plant-based diet with practical tips, strategies, and easy & delicious recipes without added stress in the kitchen.

She learned the ins-and-outs of cooking and creating delicious plant-based recipes with whole-food ingredients, alongside her husband John.
In this delicious episode, we talk with Kathy about transitioning to a vegan diet, some of the best recipes that she has created, how to make the transition work during the holidays and the benefits of being plant-based/vegan.

Episode 91: Talking about ‘The Biggies‘ with Devin Tomiak
Tuesday Nov 02, 2021
Tuesday Nov 02, 2021
As you know, on this podcast we talk about all the challenging things in life. My guest this week has found a way to help us speak with our children about all the challenging things too.
This week's guest Devin Tomiak has worked with Dr. Amy Engelman to develop The Biggies Cards, an innovative, research-based take on family conversation cards for elementary-aged kids. Her mission is to make it easy and fun for parents, teachers and caregivers to have BIG discussions about social emotional concepts with children. I think this is a must listen for parents and anyone working with children to gain tips on how to have these conversations.
