TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR FREEDOM.

Welcome to episode 19 with vegan YouTube personality, Megan Elizabeth! I stumbled across Megan's YouTube channel years ago when I was in the midst of exploring EVERY diet option known to man, trying to find IT. Like, the single solution to all my problems (which I was certain were all about my body). I'd become obsessed with the 80/10/10 diet which was all raw and vegan and just extreme enough to catch my eye. It felt like the binge eaters dream diet - eating as much fruit as I could fit into my body and not much else. In reality, I became increasingly numb because I was eating every chance I got.

And looking back, it totally makes sense. I'd gone from starving myself to this seeming permission to have ALL the food and I was on complete autopilot. It was actually from there that I decided to do that first 3 month juice fast that I talked about a couple episodes back.

So this was just one of many diet variations I tried on over the years but it's such a strong memory and today's guest was actually a big part of it. Megan had this super cool, super sane, approach. She was a rule-breaker and questioned a lot of the craziness that was happening and as a total bonus, she had such an amazing collection of recipes.

In this episode we go far beyond diet into religion, living unconventional lifestyles, questioning everything we once thought to be true, and the questions we'd benefit from asking in regards to social media.

I hope you enjoy this conversation with Megan Elizabeth.
