As we continue to dive deeper into the five masters of our lives, we lean heavier into our well-being, physically and mentally. How we eat impacts us more than we realize, as our daily practices either own us or support us.

With so much evidence driving us toward eating with a plant slant or plant-based to support our mental, emotional, and physical health, I sat down with dear friends of mine, physicians on the leading edge of Lifestyle Medicine, Dr. Munish Chawla and Dr. Bandana Chawla. Together we talk about the impact of diet, how to make micro changes toward eating more plants, and they hand over small shifts to help bring you forward into this healthier lifestyle. This conversation is filled with ways to better your health, one plate at a time. So, let’s dive right in. The get Your life together girl podcast starts right now.
