jrs2755Starting my JourneyThis is such a helpful, motivating and educational podcast. I am just starting my journey toward vegan living and found this podcast last week. I have been binge listening every chance I get. I have never eaten a lot of meat. I don’t like eggs or seafood so I feel I am mostly there. It’s the cheese, yogurt and milk that I did not think I could give up, but after listening, I feel confident that a vegan lifestyle is my future. This is a must listen podcast for anyone who might be on the fence about going vegan.
-
herongrayHelpful and life-changingI am so thankful to have found this podcast. It has quickly become my favourite health and wellness podcast. Highly recommend for those wanting to incorporate more plants into their lives

selibrateIntegral ListeningAs a vegan-in-training, I truly appreciate the positive encouragement I receive from this podcast. There is no shame-based advice nor guidance. It's just information being shared; you can do what you want with it. What I also deeply value from this podcast is the gentle push to find your own path and walk your individual journey. I feel inspired every time I listen. Thank you!

Plant Centered ListenerLove the Plant Centered and Thriving Podcast!Thank you so very much for providing such a wonderful resource. I have been focused on plant based nutrition and trying to move in the direction of being more whole food plant based since early 2020. Each episode serves as a helpful reminder of why I want to continue on this path. I very much look forward to the latest episode and I frequently revisit prior show notes for plant based books I have on my reading list. Thank you!

GlassHouse1650Always look forward to listening!I always look forward to hearing stories from others and learning even more about plant based living! I am relatively new to this world (about 2 years) and I haven’t looked back- this has been the best decision my husband and I have made.

Plant-based information seekerMy favorite podcast!This is by far my favorite podcast. Great information on nutrition and so much more. The guests are amazing. Listening has peaked my interest and led me to research even more on my own. I get so excited when a new episode comes out!
-
Ks376257An absolute must for any plant-based personLove love love all the inspirational stories that help keep me grounded and excited to eat this way. I love starting my Mondays with Ashley!
-
Amanda.dnConfusingTheir guests often recommend new vegans make sure they’re eating enough because plant based foods are often lower in calories, but on the latest episode about the NYT they claim “calories in, calories out” is a myth. It… can’t be both. Also in that episode the hosts admitted to not really understanding the issue. Why express an opinion, then?
-
Aiken EdelenBest thing about Monday!I really love this podcast and I can’t wait for it to drop every Monday! The guests are great but most importantly the information is simple and down to earth.
-

Goldeneyes1021I love listening to real life personal journeysWhen I went plant based, no one in my inner circle was so I often felt alone and struggled to relate to anyone. This podcast is giving me the confidence and strength to continue on my journey listening to everyday people like me. These stories give me a sense of community and the feeling that I can relate to others. It’s not about being perfect, it’s about the journey. I also love to hear real information from a registered dietitian. I highly recommend this podcast!
