90 seconds can change your life!!!

It's rare that an individual comes along that breaks the entire paradigm in a field, and does it so cleanly and eloquently as Dr. Joan Rosenberg has done.

This interview blew me away in how one simple technique, aptly named (by her colleague, not her) the 90 second Rosenberg Reset can help you wade through the wave of your emotions, and come out the other side.

If you want to understand your emotions, and be able to ride the waves without being taken under, then this interview, with such a brilliant author is for you.

She'll help you take back control of your emotions, or what happens after the emotional wave. 

It'll help you be happier, help improve your relationships, and most importantly help you understand why you do what you do, and why those around you do so as well.

I'm so glad I had Joan on the show, and know it'll improve my response to my own emotions, my relationship with my wife Jessica, and likely help you with your emotions as well :O).

Enjoy and Shine Bright!!!

There's so much media and hype these days around a plant-based diet, I wanted to have on a guest to help you, if you want to get started.

No one diet is right for everyone, but typically the hardest thing in starting a dietary change is knowing what in the world to eat...which is why I was so excited to have the plant-based Dr. Neal D. Barnard on the show.

I thought of my parents when recording this one, I know how hard of a challenge it's been for my dad to incorporate a green-smoothie into his daily routine. But he's done so, and I couldn't be prouder of him.

If you're looking to up your nutrition, and round the corner with your health, then this show may be for you. 

I hope you enjoy the interview, and the food too!!! WOO HOO!!!
