What if you could tap into the power of your intuition amidst the information overload? Well, today we guide you on this path with our dear friend, Maria Kelly.

Picture a world where the food you eat doesn't just nourish you, but also supports a healthier planet. Maria and I delve deep into the link between animal consumption and our collective health. We share personal anecdotes about the effects of reducing animal product consumption and highlight how the way we treat our food sources can ricochet back to our well-being. But it doesn't stop there; Maria also shares her inspiring story of triumph over fear, tackling her mother's cancer diagnosis, and how she birthed her community-support initiative, Amor Kitchen.
