I often get asked about what I eat and whether I'm still plant-based, so I decided to dedicate this episode entirely to discussing my diet and nutrition journey.</p><p><br></p><p>My goal is always to be the healthiest version of myself, so in this episode, I talk about my experience with being plant-based and my decision to reintroduce some animal products into my diet, including the process of navigating vegan guilt. I also touch on the areas of health I've focused on this year, such as supplements, protein intake, and choosing the best quality olive oil and salt.</p><p><br></p><p>Additionally, I really enjoyed answering some of the health and wellness questions you sent in!</p><p><br></p><p>This episode offers a deep dive into health and nutrition, and I hope it gives you a glimpse into what I do and believe in.
