  • Clean Food Dirty Girl & Plant-Based Living with Molly Patrick
    Dec 2 2025

    What if embracing a plant-based lifestyle could transform not just your health, but the way you live, and connect with the world?

    Today’s guest, Molly Patrick, has spent her life exploring exactly that; from her unconventional childhood to leading one of the most supportive plant-based communities on the planet.

    Molly is the co-founder and CEO of Clean Food Dirty Girl, a global community with over 280,000 people helping others eat more delicious plant based food, live cruelty-free, and embrace their perfectly imperfect selves. She has never eaten meat in her life. Growing up in New Mexico on a rugged, self-built estate taught her resilience, creativity, and an appreciation for life’s messy, beautiful moments.

    Molly has created more than 400 plant-based meal plans and a thriving, supportive online community lovingly known as the “Dirties.” Her approach is straightforward, fun, and often hilarious. She is also a certified coach.

    On today’s episode, we’ll dive into Molly’s unconventional journey, her philosophy on conscious living, and the lessons she’s learned about joy, resilience, and embracing imperfection in all areas of life.

  • The Kind Luxury Approach to Modern Living with Emmanuelle Bonham
    Oct 23 2025

    What if luxury was not about what we own, but about how gently we move through the world?

    Welcome back to Health, Happiness & Planet, the podcast where we explore how to live well for ourselves, for others, and for the planet we share.

    Today, I’m joined by Emmanuelle Bonham, the founder of Kind Luxury, a lifestyle movement redefining what it truly means to live beautifully without causing harm. Through her work, Emmanuelle blends aesthetics with ethics, showing that elegance and compassion do not just coexist, they elevate every part of how we live.

    With more than nine years of experience in plant-based nutrition, wellness, and advocacy, Emmanuelle has partnered with global names such as Adidas and Greenpeace and mentors those seeking deeper alignment between their values, health, and lifestyle. Her mission is to prove that true luxury lies not in excess but in awareness, purpose, and kindness.

    In our conversation, we explore the philosophy of Kind Luxury and how compassion can become the new status symbol. We discuss what it means to shift from excess to fulfillment, why alignment leads to lasting happiness, and how to make sustainable and ethical choices in fashion, travel, and everyday life.

    Emmanuelle also shares her personal journey, her work in animal rescue and advocacy, and her vision for the future of conscious living. Together, we uncover why living beautifully and consciously is not about perfection but about progress, intention, and care.

    If you have ever wondered how to live with both elegance and ethics, this episode will invite you to see luxury through a new lens—one rooted in kindness, purpose, and true wellbeing.

  • What Doctors Miss in Training. Dr. Michael Klaper’s Mission to Move Medicine Forward
    Aug 22 2025
    What if your doctor prescribed vegetables instead of pills?Today’s guest, Dr. Michael Klaper, is not only asking that question—he’s built his life’s work around answering it. A graduate of the University of Illinois College of Medicine, Dr. Klaper trained in surgery, anesthesiology, orthopedics, and obstetrics across top institutions in North America. But afteryears in clinical practice, he came to a life-changing realization: true healing doesn’t come from prescriptions alone—it comes from lifestyle, especially what we put on our plates.Now an internationally recognized teacher, clinician, and speaker, Dr. Klaper has become a leading voice in the movement to integrate nutrition into mainstream medicine. He teaches that a whole-food, plant-based diet can not only prevent but often reverse many chronic diseases that dominate our healthcare system today. Through his groundbreaking initiative, Moving Medicine Forward, he’s reaching medical students across the globe with a simple but revolutionary message: food is medicine, and nutrition belongs at the heart of medical education.In our conversation, we dive into his personal transformation, the systemic flaws in how physicians are trained, and the uphill battle to shift medicine toward prevention. We also discuss the dangers of modern diets, the influence of pharmaceutical interests, the importance of research integrity, and the growing health concerns in younger generations. Whether you're a doctor, a patient, or someone curious about the future of healthcare, this conversation will leave you inspired, informed, and empowered to take charge of your health.
