Hi friends,

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

2020 was a whirlwind of emotions and we are so happy to start off the New Year with a truly inspiring podcast. We're bringing on one of our dear friends, Josh Balk from Eat Just, and his dad Jim. Jim recently became vegan at nearly 80-years-old and is loving it!

We talk about how he is doing with his new diet and lifestyle and how the transition has been since he started. We hope you are inspired by his journey and his newfound attitude towards being vegan and start off the year as motivated as ever!

❤ Michelle + Toni
