Plant-Powered Performance for Purpose-Driven Leaders
You could serve 10x more people if you had the stamina. You know it, your team knows it, and God knows it.
Here's what nobody's saying out loud: You've built a high-level business running on fumes. You teach discipline to thousands but secretly can't control your own fork. You're crushing it on stage with a body that's quietly falling apart backstage, and the brain fog that cost you that deal last week? The exhaustion that made you cancel again? Every single "I don't feel good" day is someone who needed your breakthrough but didn't get it because your body tapped out early.
Your body is the bottleneck to your calling, while you're watching your peers decline at your age. Some already dropped out, but you refuse to be next. Your parents got sick when they hit your years, but youâre determined that will NOT be your story. If you've thought, "I know how to scale, but my body won't fully back me up," youâre in the right place.
Jarrod and Anita Roussel have spent nearly 5 decades in healthcare working with kingdom leaders like you who have big God-given vision while their bodies keep breaking down. Here's what they learned: You don't need another diet, because diets donât provide sustainable results. What you need is your body to finally cooperate with all that God has called you to do.
That's why they created the 5-Step Accelerator Blueprint rooted in Scripture and whole plant foods, but here's the part that matters most: It actually works for people who don't have time for 3 hour meal prep or eating food that steals their joy. Itâs time to escape the miserable attempts at health that involve calorie counting, obsessing over points at business dinners, and pulling out your phone to calculate macros when you should be building relationships and closing deals.
Welcome to the food that optimally fuels million-dollar decisions, meals you can make in hotels, energy that lasts through back-to-back stages, and a body that finally feels as strong as your calling.
Here's what you'll get every episode:
The energy to say YES to every God-given opportunity without wondering if you'll crash halfway through. Mental clarity for the decisions that actually move the needle. The stamina to show up strong when thousands are counting on you, no more barely âsurvivingâ the day. We'll show you how to stop the inflammation thatâs stealing your focus, reverse what you were told was "chronic," and know exactly what to eat without all the exhausting mental gymnastics that completely waste your brain power. You'll learn to make meals you love in minutes that actually taste incredible, get hours back for what grows your business, and watch your labs improve right alongside your income.
This isn't just about looking better in photos or fitting some ideal image. This is a movement of Kingdom leaders and entrepreneurs, banning together proclaiming to our enemy, âYou can NOT steal my health anymore!â This is about finishing what God started in us, serving others and expanding Godâs Kingdom together, and being the grandparent who runs with our grandkids instead of watching from the sideline. Having the stamina to fulfill our ENTIRE calling, not just the parts you have energy for left over after dragging through another exhausting day.
Your business has a ceiling right now, and your body set it. We're going to show you how to blow the roof off, breaking the generational health curse so your kids never have to fight this battle, and turn your body from the thing holding you back into the greatest business asset you have.
If you're done leaving Kingdom impact on the table because you're too tired to pick it up, hit subscribe and press play. Fuel Your Body. Fulfill Your Calling. This is Power On Plants.

The Power on Plants Podcast
Speaker 1Hey, sunshine, when you go plant-based, is buying a Vitamix worth it? We get asked that question all the time, so we're answering it for you today. Hey sister, welcome to the Power on Plants podcast. Are you tired of staring into the fridge wondering what to eat so you can just feel better? Do you want to avoid spending hours in the kitchen making complicated meals in the name of health? Would you love to leave fatigue behind and finally have the energy to do all the things you want to do?
Speaker 1Hi, we're Jared and Anita Roussel, christ followers, health care professionals, parents of four and big fans of great tasting food. We, too, tried exercising more, eating natural and clean foods, but we still found ourselves struggling with what we thought were changes that come with age or bad genes, and we weren't finding answers the traditional route. So we dug into the research and created our secret nutritional weapon sustainable plant-based living. The truth is, you can eat more whole plant foods and it's not hard. You just need the way. That's realistic and delicious so you never feel deprived. If you're ready to enjoy your meals, no longer be held back by your health struggles and actively live your life, then you're in the right place. So grab your favorite plant based cup of happy pop in those earbuds. And let's get started.
Speaker 1Friend, if you are on the plant-based journey, going all in or just wanting to know how to eat more whole plant foods so you can finally feel better, pie is for you. Now what do I mean by that? We all love pie. You know, inside our society I actually just released a chocolate cheesecake pie recipe. Everybody is freaking out about it because it is so good. That's how much we love pie around here. So when I say are you inside of pie, I don't mean have you jumped into the cheesecake. What I really mean is have you joined our free community podcast insiders experience. And if you have not yet, go right now to powerandplantscom, forward, slash P-I-E and become a part. Why? Because we love getting to know you and this is going to propel you to success with sustainable plant-based living.
Speaker 1You know there's a lot of information out there about plant-based living, but how do you make it sustainable? That's what Jared and I are all about, and a huge part of doing that is getting inside the community. That is going to set you up for success, and you know I have loved getting to know several of you recently inside this group. It is so much fun to put faces with names. So we have some members that come in and they kind of like ghosts. They just want to see what's going on, and but that's not really where you're going to get the help and the success you need. What we see time and again is those that actually come into the group, post their picture, put a little blurb about themselves and start posting hey, here's what I'm eating asking questions about plant-based living, drawing on the successes of others, and even if others are only one or two steps ahead of them, they already have information that's going to help you get so much farther down the road. That's why community is so beautiful.
Speaker 1But I have loved getting to know Elizabeth and Ann and Joelle lately. We have the best members. We have the best members. You guys are awesome and I have popped into direct messages and started texting back and forth with them and we're sharing life. We're doing life together. And you have popped into direct messages and started texting back and forth with them and we're sharing life. We're doing life together. And you know, if you come into Pi and you post your picture and you post a little bit about yourself, it's a great way for us to connect with each other. So don't just get in there and say, okay, I'm just going to kind of hang back and watch what everybody does. No, you're the ones that make the group so amazing and you need to meet each other. Joelle needs to meet Anne. Anne needs to meet Elizabeth. All of you need to get to know each other because you're amazing and I truly feel like this is a place you're going to grow together, not just in plant-based eating, but also in your spiritual walk.
Speaker 1Maybe several of you are in the same season of life. This is how you meet each other. It can help each other in other areas as well. Maybe several are homeschooling. Maybe several have toddlers and are dealing with struggles that come along with that. Maybe several of you have teens. Maybe several of you are trying to start a business. How are you going to know and grow together if you don't get to know each other and start becoming involved?
Speaker 1Maybe you think I don't have time for that, and I would say to that we don't get to know each other and start becoming involved. Maybe you think I don't have time for that and I would say to that we don't have time to not connect. We don't have time to not connect. It doesn't have to take a long amount of time, but when you start sharing life together, living in the relationship that you were created and born to thrive in, you will not believe how much farther and faster you will go, jared, and I can tell you this is true in every area of life. It's true, we know it to be true. So get in there and start sharing. Post your picture, first thing. Just post a picture. It doesn't have to be glamorous, we're not about glamorous, we're all about real. And then post a little blurb just about you hey, I'm a mom, I have so many kids, I homeschool, or something that you're interested in, something that you love doing. Just those connection points. Think about sharing connection points.
Speaker 2I was thinking the same word, connection point, thinking about time, and maybe you feel like you don't have enough time to post things, but really, like Anita said, you don't have time not to, because someone else may share an idea with you that saves you so much more time than the time it took you to interact with people in this community.
Speaker 1It happens every time and it's not just with recipes, with preparation.
Speaker 2It may be other aspects of life where you would have never thought of whatever that thing is, but it's just a game changer for you.
Speaker 1And then you get the encouragement and the inspiration and the ideas to do things you never even would have thought to do before. You're putting things together because you're seeing other people doing it, because you're posting what you're putting together. You're posting what you tried and what you liked and you didn't like, and literally it takes like one minute to take a photo of your picture If you're not trying to frame it out and make it all beautiful and don't do that. This is real life. We're all living real life. It doesn't matter if it's perfectly placed on the plate. Just post the picture, just post the picture do life together.
Speaker 1We're all about doing life together. So right now, get inside pie power on plantscom, forward PIE and join us on the inside. Become a part of a vibrant community where we're all learning and growing and making these important and beautiful connections. Because I'm telling you, as I see you post your picture and a little bit about yourself. I think this is a person who really is in here to give it their all. They're posting a little bit about what they're eating. I see that they put their picture on here. We can see their face. They're posting a little bit about what they're eating. I see that they put their picture on here. We can see their face. They're really here to get the results they're after. They're serious about this and I want to get to know you.
Speaker 1But as I'm getting to know you, I'm going. Man, they need to meet each other. I mean, you're just incredible. We love you guys. All I have to say we love you. Get in your family and become involved. Even if you just say I'm going to set a timer and I'll spend five or 10 minutes in there today, you won't believe how much better that will do you than just scrolling social media. Scrolling social media is not going to get you where you want to go, but this is an action that you can take that will skyrocket you to the full life that you're after in so many different areas.
Speaker 1So today we're talking about a question that we get often, and that is should I buy a Vitamix? Now, here I am in the plant-based space and I really don't know how to put these things together. And you have all these different questions and you're thinking do I really need to then start adding and buying these different things? And Jared and I would say that there are some tools that are absolutely necessary. If you can't do it right now, you can survive without it. But I really feel like this is one of those key pieces that if you don't do it, it's going to make it so much more difficult because you don't want green chunkies if you're drinking green smoothies and green smoothies are such a fantastic way to get a lot of nutrients into your body really fast.
Right Blender for Smooth Results
Speaker 1If you're looking at healing, then if you're not looking at green smoothies or you think you know, I really want to chew my food things have been put out about that and I don't really want to do a smoothie you do you within the area of the five power foods fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts and seeds. Okay, you have some leeway there. We've talked about that. Go back and listen to our previous episodes where we shared all about making it customizable for you. But I will tell you, you're not going to want chunky dressings, chunky sauces, green chunky smoothies. You're not going to want those things Chunky milk.
Speaker 1Right, oh, chunky milk. That's a good one, because we don't advocate straining your milk. I'm the queen of helping you take out all those steps that we don't have time for. Right, this is about saving time, not taking more time. We've got to change our mindset around that, though, because we think these things are going to take me so much more time. No, if you have the tools you need, you are going to speed yourself up tremendously, so you've got to think is it worth it to me to spend X amount of money that's going to free up my time, get me to the results faster, and I'm actually going to enjoy it, because making it enjoyable is how you make it sustainable.
Speaker 2And I don't really think of it so much as a purchase as I do an investment. It is so yes there are some dollars involved with it. However, with our Vitamix are some dollars involved with it. However, with our Vitamix, it has lasted for years. We actually just replaced our Vitamix. It lasted the first one 19 years 19 years what appliances last that long? Not many, not many. And it was a workhorse and we used it multiple times a day.
Speaker 1Yeah, and we love the Vitamix. We have had it for years, like Jared said, and we'll put a link for you in the description of this podcast episode so you can see exactly which one we have. We don't have the fancy one with all the extra stuff. We bought the same basic model that we've had for years because it's a workhorse, it works great and we love it, but it's not the only machine out there that will give you a smooth texture. It will give you a smooth texture. It will give you a smooth texture absolutely.
Speaker 1But if you think I just can't afford that right now, like you're just in a situation where you just need to get the bare minimum, then you can get for around $100, sometimes even in the 70s, like close to 80, maybe 75,. You can pick up a certain type of Nutribullet that we absolutely love and we're going to put also the link for that down below in the description of this episode because I want you to know these are the ones that we know that are tried and tested. They work. You may have to run whatever it is that you're grinding up longer in your Nutribullet, but I'll tell you we own both and we use both daily multiple times a day.
Speaker 1I love the Nutribullet for smaller batches. But even if you have a larger family and a smaller budget, you could still make the Nutribullet work. You just might have to run a couple of batches. You just go into it realizing that and that's okay. Just realize the Nutribullet is not quite the workhorse. You will have to replace it. Sooner, most likely you can buy replacement cups and things like that as well. It sooner, most likely you can buy replacement cups and things like that as well. So if those break you can do that and the base lasts for quite some time for years.
Speaker 2The base lasted us for several years, but the blade base what I'm calling the base where the blade is that probably lasted us about two, maybe three years, but we were able to replace it for around $25. So not too bad. So again, I feel like we got our money's worth out of, especially considering how many times a day we use it. But thinking about the Vitamix and again I had mentioned investment if it's going to allow you to save time, like with nut milks or plant milks, not having to strain, you just turn it on, let it go for a couple of minutes and now you have milk well, you've saved time, you've saved money.
Speaker 2You didn't have to put several gallons of nut milk in the refrigerator, you're able just to keep the nuts and then make it as you need it, and you're going to make far more. So in that way you've actually saved money because you're not spending three or $4 or whatever it is. Now we haven't bought nut milk in so long that if it's three, four dollars for a half gallon, you're using far less nuts. Maybe a little, a few little dates, maybe just a small pinch of salt, because milk naturally has a little bit of a saltiness to it and then filtered water. I mean you're saving so much money there that it really could long term save you money.
Speaker 1Oh, absolutely. You're going to save money, there's no doubt about it, because you're going to save money on gas driving to and from the store to pick up milk when you need it, milk going bad in your fridge. And also it is better for you to make it, because if you knew how few nuts were in that nut milk that you were drinking at the store, it would shock you. It's mostly water and thickeners. A lot of them have thickeners in them and it's not great. You don't want that.
Speaker 2And what if you buy nut milk and you think it's okay, but it's not exactly the way that I want?
Speaker 1You don't get that flavor.
Speaker 2You can make it however you like. Or what if you think I would like a certain kind of nut milk that just is not there? We make pecan milk all the time. I have yet to see it in the store.
Speaker 1Wrap your mind around that for a minute. Pecan milk, pistachio milk. If you're not making it, why aren't you? Why are you copying what everybody's doing in the store? Listen, you need to get in the community where you get the ideas to do this stuff. This is what we talk about all this time inside our communities, inside the society. We're going to be going in depth in the course.
Speaker 1I'm going to be walking you through. How do you make nut milk? How do you do these things? And you'll get to see it, because I think sometimes you have to have somebody walk you through. At first you know you can hear it and you can listen to it, but in your mind you still feel like it's difficult. But when you can see somebody walk you through that thing, step by step, and you see, oh, I really can make it.
Speaker 1It's not that. Oh, I can vary it up like this oh, I could add this nut and that nut, and that's how many I add, and if I add more it's thicker, and if I add less it's thin. Like you get all these tips and it will just blow your mind to see how somebody does that. But I want you to wrap your mind around what Jared just said, you can make pecan milk, you can make pistachio milk. It's delicious, and why are you just using one nut? I'm going to stop there. I'm not going to go any further because we'll go into some of the stuff inside the course, because you need to see this for yourself. You need to see this happening.
Blenders for Creamy Plant-Based Creations
Speaker 2You just need to see somebody walk through it. When you can see it, it makes it more real. And if the video is two minutes long and you watch from start to finish, oh hey, they really did make nut milk in two minutes. I saw it. Oh, I absolutely can do this too.
Speaker 1Oh, it just blows your mind how easy it is. I mean, people come into our membership all the time and they're saying I cannot believe how simple this is, and they'll see me make it on an in the kitchen video. And then they'll see Lainey make it and she'll post about it in our community. And then they're like I'm going to make it now. I mean this just happened.
Speaker 2Wow, that looks really good. And someone else made it, not just Jared and Anita.
Speaker 1It just happened this week. You guys are amazing that are in our community because you are learning and growing from each other, but this is where you get the ideas like the one Jared just shared. You can get these different nuts in there, but you've got to have the blender that will make it smooth. You don't want chunky milk, ok, so the Vitamix is going to do that for you. Again, we're going to post those links in the description for all these blenders we're talking about. The Vitamix will do that for you. This specific Nutribullet is really good. You just need to let it run longer. We have a new blender that we are absolutely loving, called the Dynapro. It costs about the same as some of the Vitamix cost, but you can vacuum seal before you blend, which has been shown to preserve even more nutrients. And what I love about it is, if you're doing a smoothie or something like that, it actually keeps your things from separating.
Speaker 2Yes.
Speaker 1We just recently kind of gotten into the vacuum blending and I am loving my Dynapro. Do I still use my Vitamix all the time? Absolutely, does that?
Speaker 2mean, you need a.
Speaker 1Vitamix Dynapro. Do I still use my Vitamix all the time? Absolutely. Does that mean you need a Vitamix, dynapro and a Nutribullet? No, you do not. No, you do not. It's just that we love to test things out, to show you about them so that you can decide what is the right thing for you. I will tell you that I think it's a great idea to have a Nutribullet and either a Vitamix or a Dynapro or something that just pulverizes it. Let's say you're listening and you think you know what. I already have one and it makes everything smooth. Do I need to get one? No, no, you don't. If it works for you and it is really, really smooth and creamy, absolutely not. But if you're still making the creamy soups in the way I show you inside the community and you're getting lumps and chunks of nuts and things like that in there, that's not going to be the most satisfying experience. So really you won't believe how it will bump up your enjoyment of plant-based living to have smooth sauces, smooth dressings, to be able to make creamy kind of dessert-y drinks and things like that.
Speaker 1I used to be the frappuccino queen. Y'all know how much I loved dairy. I never really drank coffee except for the Starbucks Frappuccinos, like the mochas and the vanillas. I was addicted. I mean, there was a time when I was so addicted to those and it wasn't about the coffee. You know what I'm talking about. If you're a dairy queen, like I, am right, it wasn't about the coffee, it was the sweetness, the sugariness, the creamy and the cream. Yes, you got it Jared, it's the cream. So if you're like me and you're a dairy queen, you've got to have a way to replace those things. You know, we always talk about it. You've got to find your new favorites, and that includes beverages. And so people come to us and they're like how do I make my coffee creamy? Now, you need to know how to do those things. That's really, really important.
Speaker 2So making them creamier helps you to boost your enjoyment.
Speaker 1Yes.
Speaker 2And that is key for the sustainability aspect of this, because you need to enjoy the flavors, but the textures, the experience. That's what helps to make plant-based sustainable and that's what we're all about, because you can go plant-based by eating just a head of lettuce for every meal, but that's not enjoyable, that's not going to get you that long-term result that you want. So having the right equipment, the right tools, helps you to make these things faster, make them a lot more enjoyable and I would even say there are times whenever they have made them more flavorful.
Benefits of Blending Whole Plant Foods
Speaker 1I think those are all incredible points. And I will also add it makes them more nutrient-dense, because you can get a, then you can if it's not blended, and how is that possible? You're going to get a lot of nutrients.
Speaker 2It's because you're bursting open all the plant cells. You're releasing the nutrients from within the cells, because there's a lot of fiber around those plant cells that your body may not be able to break into, because there's a lot of fiber that we do not digest. And if we don't chew our food well, Right.
Speaker 1If we don't break the cell walls in the plants, you cell walls in the plants, you're not going to get the nutrients that are inside the cells. It's very important, and so that happens more when you're blending. Should you eat every meal blended, then, or a large portion of your meals blended? No, I don't believe that's true. I think we need to chew our food and release things that way. But the reality is a lot of us are really busy and we don't slow down to chew our food. We need to do that. Number one, that's super important. Don't slow down to chew our food. We need to do that. Number one, that's super important.
Speaker 1But this is just another way to get more whole plant foods into your life and to get, like Jared said, those sauces and things that make it enjoyable. And if you've got it lumpy and chunky when it's not supposed to be, you're going to think you know this isn't enjoyable. Imagine having company come over and you're serving a sauce over pasta that's not supposed to be lumpy and it's lumpy and chunky. Or you're like here try this plant milk and it's got a bunch of nut bits in it. I mean that's no good. That doesn't taste good. Nobody's going to want to do that and you're only going to be able to force yourself through that for so long, and then you'll find yourself right back where you started, and we don't want that for you. We want you to make this sustainable. That is what makes us different. We're all about making this sustainable, and to be sustainable, it's got to be quick, and the blenders are going to speed you up, literally speed you up, because there are complete meals that we make in our blender.
Speaker 1One of those is our creamy tomato soup. Now, if you have the Power on Plants cookbook, I want you to be watching your email, because I'm going to send you that recipe. It's an exclusive recipe that's only inside our society at the current time, but because you've listened to this podcast and you bought the cookbook, I'm going to send it to you as a bonus. So you're going to be getting that added to your cookbook files and I'm also going to send it to you as a bonus. So you're going to be getting that added to your cookbook files and I'm also going to send it to you in an email. So, again, all of you that have the Power and Plants cookbook, it's going to be in there. And if you haven't bought it yet, why not? This is the cookbook you need to get started, because I've focused on not just main meals, but getting the things into your hands that are your old favorites in a new way. So it includes salad, dressings and sauces, and drinks and desserts.
Speaker 1Yes desserts are not off limit. Breakfast, Absolutely. It includes mains. It includes extra categories, All the different things that you can think of. You're going to have some recipes in each of those categories. I did that intentionally, again, so that you can find your new favorites. So go to poweronplantscom forward slash cookbook. That's poweronplantscom forward slash cookbook. Now, if you don't have it, and pick up your copy. It's a whole bundle. It's not just the cookbook. I've got other resources in there that are going to help you on your plant-based journey as well. But we're sharing this creamy tomato soup with you because it is the perfect example of how you can take a blender, a tool that's going to speed you up, and literally in five minutes you can have dinner on the table that your family's going to love If they like Campbell's creamy tomato soup or Campbell's cream of tomato.
Speaker 1My mom used to make it for me. Y'all listen, that was one of my favorite things. I cannot even believe that, but it was one of my favorite things. She cooked a lot from scratch. My parents in case you don't know or haven't been listening very long they owned a barbecue restaurant. So I grew up on down home Southern cooking, barbecue, all those things, Brunswick steel, like all the dessert, all the desserts. My mom was a baker. My dad was a baker. He made breads and cakes and pies and I love all those things. That's why I know we've got to have those things we love.
Speaker 1So I've included some of each of those in the cookbook, but this recipe is one of those ones that is just going to make you go. I cannot even believe this. If you love tomato soup, this is going to blow your mind. But you have to have a blender that pulverizes it or you're going to have chunks and you won't like it. You've got to have that. So I'm going to show you how to make a tomato soup that's creamy and absolutely delicious. You can have dinner on the table. Really, you can have it blended up within just a couple of minutes. It's literally dump and go.
Speaker 1If you have the cookbook again, check your email. I'm going to be sending this out to you. If you don't have the cookbook yet, I'm adding it to the cookbook file. So this will be now for eternity in the Power on Plants cookbook. You can get it there, and this will give you an idea of some of the other recipes we're releasing into our private community Power on Plants Society, which is going to become the back end community, the alumni community for the course that's coming out.
Speaker 1So in the future you won't be able to join Power on Plants Society because I feel like, after working with so many clients the ones that have gotten great results there's certain steps that we've taken them through in the society and what we're doing is I'm packaging all of those up for you in a signature course that's going to walk you through week one, step one. Week two, step two, week three, step three, and along the way we'll have coaching calls that I talk to you and we can go through your questions and all of those things. It's going to be amazing. So it's inside there, whether you're a member of the course that's coming up or you're a member of society, that is where you get all my exclusive, all of my exclusive recipes hot off the presses. And let me tell you, the comments blow up and everybody gets so excited when I release them because everybody's in the kitchen making them.
Speaker 1A lot of times I'll go into the kitchen, I'll make it and show you. Look how simple this is. It's so easy, and I'll do a video walkthrough of this. Is how you make it. And then everybody's on there just giving their opinions. Like recently we released our chocolate cheesecake pie. It is amazing, it will blow your mind. And then fantastic.
Speaker 2We love it. I think the reason why so many people just light up when you release the recipes is because these are things they have asked for. We've heard several people ask for something specific, so then Anita figures okay, how can I make this plant-based, how can we find something we love, that loves us back, and then we release it and it's fantastic.
Speaker 1Oh, it is so good. I mean when you can find those things and you think, and you thought to yourself in the past I'll never be able to have that thing before. Like I can't have desserts or I can't have this specific thing. Like I used to love cheesecake. Well, now we have cheesecake and it's a much healthier version. Is this something you should be eating every single day? No, probably not.
Speaker 2But it's so good you'll want to.
Speaker 1You'll want to.
Speaker 2But it's nice to be able to have those favorite things every every once in a while.
Speaker 1So if you have a special occasion, a birthday, an anniversary, friends coming over and you just want to have that special little something, it's there but you're getting a dessert that has whole plant foods that are delicious, that doesn't have two cups of sugar in it, like a normal cheesecake might, and all the other cheese and mess that it has in it that is keeping you stuck, that's making you hurt and sluggish and have respiratory issues. All that stuff is out and you've got good things in there and it makes you feel good and it tastes great. And you're thinking I do not. I mean, I can't tell you how many times I hear I do not miss this at all. Anita, you're a genius. This is amazing. And it's just incredible, when you get these flavors together, how it can change your life.
Speaker 1I love doing this. I mean, this is my heart, because I see people posting after I post a recipe or do a walkthrough and they're going. I cannot believe how easy this is. This is totally revolutionized my life. I'm now going out, I'm playing with my kids, I'm free to do all these things.
Speaker 1You think it's going to take you more time, when actually it's going to take you less. Free to do all these things. You think it's going to take you more time, when actually it's going to take you less. And you think it's going to be more expensive, when actually it's going to cost less. You think it's going to be hard when actually it ends up being easier. I mean all these lies that we believed are lies from the enemy and they're keeping you stuck.
Speaker 1Get in the community where you can get free, get the cookbook and start making these recipes. You will not believe how your life is going to change when you start getting these foods. It's not just like, oh, I just want to eat a little more vegetable here and there. When you start getting all your main meals veggies and you replace one at a time, all your favorites, you're not going to miss the old stuff because you're going to be loving it. That's why we say we're about making it sustainable, because we show you how to do it in the way that's quick, simple and delicious. You look forward to your life every single day. You don't dread what's going to be on your plate and have to force yourself through it because you're on a quote diet. That is no way to live. You can be free from that.
Speaker 2Maybe we need to make a slight change in the way that we present this, because we keep saying quick, simple and delicious. Maybe we need to say quick, simple, delicious for a lifetime.
Speaker 1Oh, I love that For a lifetime Quick, simple and delicious for a lifetime, that's it. That's sustainable. Because if it's not for a lifetime, how's it going to help you in the long run? I mean sure maybe you could do something else and push through and lose weight and get some energy back and stop hurting a little bit. But overall, if you're miserable, you know you're not going to continue it. It's just the reality of the situation.
Speaker 2And what we know and what research has even shown. All those symptoms come right back Weight, the fatigue, the pain, and you, really you've not gained any ground.
