00:00:00.100 --> 00:00:09.528
Sister, imagine powering through your workday with sustained energy, laser focus, a clear mind and more productivity than you ever had before.

00:00:09.528 --> 00:00:11.173
It's not a fantasy.

00:00:11.173 --> 00:00:21.065
It's the power of whole food, plant-based eating, the power on plant sway, using the formulas and the strategies to make it quick, simple and completely delicious.

00:00:21.065 --> 00:00:30.814
Eating enjoyable whole food, plant-based meals, snacks and even desserts is how Jared and I lost 75 pounds together without using any miserable dieting methods.

00:00:30.814 --> 00:00:40.027
If you're ready to discover the way of eating that nourishes your body, fuels your success and fits seamlessly into your busy schedule, this is for you.

00:00:40.027 --> 00:00:43.701
Hey sister, welcome to the Power on Plants podcast.

00:00:43.701 --> 00:00:49.014
Are you tired of staring into the fridge wondering what to eat so you can just feel better?

00:00:49.014 --> 00:00:54.411
Do you want to avoid spending hours in the kitchen making complicated meals in the name of health?

00:00:54.411 --> 00:01:00.673
Would you love to leave fatigue behind and finally have the energy to do all the things you want to do?

00:01:01.140 --> 00:01:08.373
Hi, we're Jared and Anita Roussel, christ followers, healthcare professionals, parents of four and big fans of great tasting food.

00:01:08.373 --> 00:01:20.570
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 to traditional routes.

00:01:20.570 --> 00:01:27.801
So we dug into the research and created our secret nutritional weapon sustainable plant-based living.

00:01:27.801 --> 00:01:31.609
The truth is, you can eat more whole plant foods and it's not hard.

00:01:31.609 --> 00:01:36.748
You just need the way that's realistic and delicious so you never feel deprived.

00:01:36.748 --> 00:01:44.992
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.

00:01:44.992 --> 00:01:50.272
So grab your favorite plant-based cup of happy pop in those earbuds and let's get started.

00:01:50.272 --> 00:01:58.185
Hey there, sunshine, do you ever find yourself grabbing a sugary snack bar or maybe skipping lunch altogether because you're just too busy?

00:01:58.465 --> 00:02:07.945
That last one was me back years and years ago, and I know it wasn't healthy and it was not setting me up to be successful in the business that God had given me.

00:02:07.945 --> 00:02:14.109
At that time, I was a stay-at-home mom, homeschooling four of our children, which I'm still doing, except one of them's graduated.

00:02:14.109 --> 00:02:16.506
But now we have a business on top of that.

00:02:16.506 --> 00:02:30.155
So whether you're a businesswoman outside the home, you're a businesswoman working from Zoom, having your Zoom calls, or you're a businesswoman taking care of the business of the family whatever that is, you have a purpose for which God's placed you here.

00:02:30.155 --> 00:02:32.322
Maybe it's multiple of those things.

00:02:32.742 --> 00:02:40.167
But what you can't do is get so busy that you don't take care of you, because you are your number one asset.

00:02:40.167 --> 00:02:54.987
So you have to be sure that you're making yourself a priority, but in order to do that, what we found out is that you not only have to be sure that you're making yourself a priority, but in order to do that, what we found out is that you not only have to find the way to get the most nutrient dense foods on the planet into your body on a regular basis, and that's whole plant foods.

00:02:54.987 --> 00:02:55.991
We know that for a fact.

00:02:55.991 --> 00:03:04.483
We've experienced it ourself and we regularly help our clients heal from the top chronic diseases of our time that they were told were not reversible.

00:03:04.483 --> 00:03:36.903
And so if you're struggling with extra pounds and low energy and brain fog and all these things, what we know is that whole plant foods are the foods that contain the nutrients that your body is missing and that will help you get rid of the other foods that are sabotaging your health with their unhealthy ingredients, when you know how to get them in the way that is simple and enjoyable and delicious, because if you don't know the way to do that, you can think whole plant foods are great and they're going to help you and you can know it is a vehicle that's going to get you to your health destination.

00:03:36.903 --> 00:03:38.868
How are you going to keep doing that?

00:03:38.868 --> 00:03:50.842
How are you going to make it sustainable so that you can get the energy it's going to give you the improved focus that you're going to have, the better health and the increased productivity that you need in your home and your business life?

00:03:50.842 --> 00:04:03.281
So what lights Jared and me up is to show up for you and show you how to make eating whole plant foods enjoyable and exciting so that you can do it for life without even thinking twice about it.

00:04:03.281 --> 00:04:05.849
You don't have to power through just because you know it makes you feel better.

00:04:05.849 --> 00:04:19.809
I mean, you can only do that for so long, even the most determined of us, especially when you have a busy schedule of having multiple kids, of having a business that you're establishing or growing to the next level and you've got all these other things you want to do in life.

00:04:20.100 --> 00:04:26.247
I was just reading this testimonial of this woman the other day and she was talking about how all these things she couldn't do.

00:04:26.247 --> 00:04:28.670
She said people say isn't this hard.

00:04:28.670 --> 00:04:30.492
I don't know how you do that it's so hard.

00:04:30.492 --> 00:04:32.074
How do you eat whole plant foods all the time?

00:04:32.074 --> 00:04:33.896
She's like no, it's not hard.

00:04:33.896 --> 00:04:37.901
What was hard was not being able to get on an airplane and fit in a regular seat.

00:04:37.901 --> 00:04:40.966
What was so hard was not being able to go on the safari.

00:04:40.966 --> 00:04:43.928
I'd always wanted to go on and see all the exotic animals.

00:04:43.928 --> 00:04:46.773
She even took a trip where she was able to go on a camel ride.

00:04:46.773 --> 00:05:00.023
She said before I'd have been afraid I would have hurt the camel, I would have never gotten up there, I might have lost my balance, not been able to do these things because I was overweight or I didn't have the energy, even after I lost a little bit of the weight, to do these things.

00:05:00.023 --> 00:05:12.966
But now she shares all these pictures of all this amazing travel she's had with her husband, with her kids, with her family, all these things she's been able to do in her life and business, picture upon picture.

00:05:13.319 --> 00:05:15.264
Let me encourage you as you start this journey.

00:05:15.264 --> 00:05:21.089
You are going to get results if you're going through it with us, if you're doing it the power and plants way they're going to last.

00:05:21.089 --> 00:05:36.985
Start documenting now with quick pictures, because you want to be able to see pictures of yourself how you looked, how you felt, how you used to stand sideways in pictures because you wanted to look smaller, or you cut off half of your body in a picture because you didn't want to look so big.

00:05:36.985 --> 00:05:46.564
I mean, this is the reality of the painful things we have to go through because no one has told us the people that we've hoped would tell us that we keep going to for answers.

00:05:46.564 --> 00:05:48.653
They don't have the answers and we're going.

00:05:48.653 --> 00:05:51.403
Why can't somebody just show me the way to do this?

00:05:51.403 --> 00:06:01.062
And all they're saying is quit eating your favorite foods, take this medication, which ultimately causes you side effects, so that you need to take more medications to cover those side effects.

00:06:01.062 --> 00:06:08.194
Now again, if you've been around here long enough I'm just going to say this as an aside go back and listen to our other 300 plus podcast episodes.

00:06:08.733 --> 00:06:11.668
Jared is a physician assistant certified in lifestyle medicine.

00:06:11.668 --> 00:06:15.201
I'm a nurse and integrative nutrition health coach.

00:06:15.201 --> 00:06:17.507
We're not going to tell you don't take medicine.

00:06:17.507 --> 00:06:26.170
We firmly believe there's a time and a place, but we also know that it is extremely overused and it doesn't often work long term, particularly when we're talking about weight loss medications.

00:06:26.170 --> 00:06:28.533
But let's talk about cholesterol medications.

00:06:28.533 --> 00:06:30.315
Let's talk about what they do to your body.

00:06:30.315 --> 00:06:42.870
Let's talk about and think about the blood pressure medications that we regularly see clients come off of under their doctor's supervision, as we show them how to make this lifestyle realistic with their busy schedules.

00:06:43.279 --> 00:06:53.951
And, ironically enough, a common side effect of any of these medications is tiredness and fatigue, and we've seen some of the cholesterol medications cause achiness in the muscles and in the joints.

00:06:54.353 --> 00:06:55.639
That's what we're trying to leave behind.

00:06:55.639 --> 00:07:03.867
I felt myself getting a little angry right there when you talked about that I'm not kidding, I'm getting a little lit right now because it makes me sick to see you going through this, because I've been there.

00:07:03.987 --> 00:07:05.089
Jared and I have both been there.

00:07:05.089 --> 00:07:08.634
We know what it's like to go through these things and no one was telling us.

00:07:08.634 --> 00:07:19.814
We're at the point where we're consistently rejoicing with clients and his patients that he's still seeing via telemedicine about how they've come off their medications for diabetes.

00:07:19.814 --> 00:07:23.944
They're no longer taking insulin, they're no longer on high blood pressure medications.

00:07:23.944 --> 00:07:25.146
Did you know?

00:07:25.146 --> 00:07:28.511
It's not normal for your blood pressure to go up as you age?

00:07:28.511 --> 00:07:30.572
That is a straight up fact.

00:07:30.572 --> 00:07:34.783
I'm not kidding, I'm really not, like it's a real thing.

00:07:34.882 --> 00:07:39.848
We have believed so many lies that are just not true and we're going to be busting those lies in the upcoming course.

00:07:39.848 --> 00:07:41.064
I'm getting up on my soapbox now.

00:07:41.064 --> 00:07:45.629
I'm going to have to step down because this just lights me up, because why have we not been told these things?

00:07:45.629 --> 00:08:08.033
But this is not going to be the case for you anymore, because we're sharing these things with you here and we're going to do a much deeper dive for you not a difficult dive, but you're going to have the blinders pulled off in so many ways where those lies that the enemy has put into our society and you're going to discover all the avenues that they're coming to you through, and then we're going to replace those with I do want to clarify.

00:08:08.074 --> 00:08:09.704
You mentioned people coming off of insulin.

00:08:09.704 --> 00:08:24.016
They do that, but these are patients that are type 2 diabetics where their provider didn't really know what else to do because the other medications, the non-insulin medications, weren't working, so they had to add insulin to try to further control their blood sugars.

00:08:24.016 --> 00:08:34.432
But once they come off of the meats and the dairy and the eggs, their body starts to correct, they start to become sensitive to the insulin that they make, so they no longer need it.

00:08:34.432 --> 00:08:36.606
So yes, we do see that, but I did want to clarify.

00:08:36.606 --> 00:08:38.113
Those are for the type two diabetics.

00:08:38.113 --> 00:08:41.686
For those that are type one, that's a different story altogether.

00:08:42.006 --> 00:08:46.616
Yes, I'm so glad you clarified that, because I got wound up a little bit.

00:08:46.738 --> 00:08:48.889
And when I do that, I don't share all the facts.

00:08:48.950 --> 00:08:52.317
So I need you there to just jump in and do that, because that was my hot button right there.

00:08:52.565 --> 00:08:53.770
That's why we have each other's back.

00:08:54.206 --> 00:09:04.215
All the time we have other clients coming off medications for high cholesterol, Again under their doctor's supervision as we're working with them, because they're going.

00:09:04.215 --> 00:09:05.096
I cannot believe this.

00:09:05.096 --> 00:09:07.572
I just made a recipe with less than eight ingredients.

00:09:07.572 --> 00:09:10.153
Sometimes it's five, sometimes it's four and they're going.

00:09:10.153 --> 00:09:11.313
I can't believe how easy this was.

00:09:11.313 --> 00:09:19.221
Like I used to stand over the stove and slave away to make pan gravy and I had to try to stir it a certain way and make sure it didn't seize up and I didn't get lumps in it.

00:09:19.221 --> 00:09:19.846
Are you kidding me?

00:09:19.846 --> 00:09:27.690
I can throw these ingredients into a blender that actually takes me five seconds to blend up, and then I can pour it into a pot and not worry about it.

00:09:27.690 --> 00:09:31.475
Just kind of sit there and start for a few minutes and it is now warm it up.

00:09:32.196 --> 00:09:34.658
And it is the best pan gravy I've ever had in my life, like that.

00:09:34.698 --> 00:09:35.200
We love it.

00:09:35.200 --> 00:09:36.201
I was unbelievable.

00:09:41.384 --> 00:09:43.551
We don't eat it every morning, but we still are able to enjoy these things on a routine basis.

00:09:43.551 --> 00:09:47.341
You absolutely must set yourself up where you have snacks and meals that you enjoy.

00:09:47.341 --> 00:09:49.027
You do not have time to.

00:09:49.027 --> 00:09:51.413
You don't have time not to sister.

00:09:51.413 --> 00:09:53.298
You are your number one asset.

00:09:53.384 --> 00:10:03.538
You're going to hear me say this again and again, because it's something that you need to start telling yourself in your business and in your home life, both Because your home life is your business.

00:10:03.538 --> 00:10:04.687
It's all your business.

00:10:04.687 --> 00:10:11.090
This is all the realm that God has given you as one of his girls, as the daughter of the king, to manage.

00:10:11.090 --> 00:10:15.410
This is where you plant your seeds, this is where you water your seeds.

00:10:15.410 --> 00:10:18.900
This is where your legacy begins and is left.

00:10:18.900 --> 00:10:40.359
How are you going to do that If you feel constantly exhausted and you spend your time trying to figure out and get into your schedule where you're going to fit all your doctor's appointments, for your blood work, for your medication refills, to get to to the pharmacy, to do all these different things that you're having to do to manage symptoms that could be reversed?

00:10:40.359 --> 00:10:42.726
And number one, nobody's told you they could be reversed.

00:10:42.726 --> 00:10:49.269
Well, now you get your eyes open, you realize, hey, whole food plant-based is the way, and you show up here because you know it's the vehicle to get you there.

00:10:49.269 --> 00:10:56.645
You know that this is is the way to get healthy, but you don't see how in the world you could constantly eat rabbit food, right, salad?

00:10:56.645 --> 00:10:58.029
How am I going to survive on salads?

00:10:58.029 --> 00:11:02.754
Let me tell you If you're going to eat whole food, plant-based, the power in plants way, I promise you.

00:11:02.754 --> 00:11:05.985
Number one you're not just going to have to eat salads.

00:11:05.985 --> 00:11:09.871
Number two you can still have your desserts and snacks and food you love.

00:11:09.871 --> 00:11:10.533
You should be.

00:11:10.533 --> 00:11:12.756
As a matter of fact, it's not just that you can, you should be.

00:11:12.756 --> 00:11:13.979
If you're not, you're doing it wrong.

00:11:13.979 --> 00:11:15.586
But we're going to show you how.

00:11:15.586 --> 00:11:18.072
Okay, no worries, you're going to learn.

00:11:18.072 --> 00:11:25.317
This is just new, it's different, but once it's not new and different, it won't be hard, it'll be the quickest, I promise you.

00:11:25.317 --> 00:11:32.840
You're going to save more time and have time opening up on your planner, your organizer, your business planner, your home planner, it doesn't matter where it is.

00:11:32.840 --> 00:11:36.001
You're going to have time freed up learning how to cook this way.

00:11:36.001 --> 00:11:39.802
Sometimes you're not even going to cook, and it doesn't have to be salad.

00:11:40.163 --> 00:11:43.153
There are raw meals you can eat that taste just as good or even better.

00:11:43.153 --> 00:11:48.427
I promise I'm not kidding they will taste as good or even better as your old favorites.

00:11:48.427 --> 00:11:58.013
But you've got to have the sauces, you've got to have the spices, the flavors that aren't going to sabotage your health but actually make you feel amazing, that are going to taste great.

00:11:58.013 --> 00:12:08.789
I seriously was in the kitchen today eating homemade sushi with my son and I looked at him and I, just out of the blue I'm just talking to him about you and I said it's the sauces.

00:12:08.789 --> 00:12:12.158
I mean, there's so many of those moments that I'm going to be sharing with you.

00:12:12.504 --> 00:12:14.533
But the sauces and things are key.

00:12:14.533 --> 00:12:16.111
You've got to have the right ones.

00:12:16.111 --> 00:12:17.591
They've got to be easy.

00:12:17.591 --> 00:12:22.417
They've got to be few ingredients, quick, simple, because it works with your schedule.

00:12:22.417 --> 00:12:25.224
Then that's what frees you up, that's what makes it easy.

00:12:25.565 --> 00:12:35.129
So we're going to work with you to where you can set up for yourself something that works for you, still within the guidelines of what we teach and how to eat.

00:12:35.129 --> 00:12:40.948
But what might work for me for a really great breakfast or a really great snack or a really great dinner?

00:12:40.948 --> 00:12:47.652
How do I set myself up on the weekend without slaving away on my only day off in the kitchen for hours at a time.

00:12:47.652 --> 00:13:04.708
How do I set myself up for an easy week so that when I've got Zoom meetings, or I've got to go out for a meeting with someone at the coffee shop, or I've got to go into my office, or I've got to manage four children and homeschool them all and maintain my clarity of thinking and actually nourish my body well at the same time?

00:13:04.708 --> 00:13:11.058
That is what we love showing you how to do, in the way that you get these foods, that you're not just eating rabbit foods.

00:13:11.058 --> 00:13:13.109
These are the rabbit foods and they're great.

00:13:13.169 --> 00:13:17.028
But you know those rabbits, they're pretty smart, you know they're eating the good stuff.

00:13:17.347 --> 00:13:20.297
They are eating the good stuff, but they don't have the sauces and stuff.

00:13:20.297 --> 00:13:25.085
If they had the sauces, the herbs and they knew how to make them really fast and easy and convenient.

00:13:25.085 --> 00:13:27.687
And they had to go to work, they'd be set.

00:13:28.028 --> 00:13:29.490
That's next level good stuff.

00:13:29.510 --> 00:13:30.873
That's next level good stuff.

00:13:30.873 --> 00:13:36.760
So I want you to just start thinking on your own like what are some really great whole food, plant-based options?

00:13:36.760 --> 00:13:38.850
And then you've got to start making that list.

00:13:38.850 --> 00:13:45.033
Girl, I know I've told you a hundred times, you've heard me in your ear on your walk, while you're getting ready for your day, whenever it is, you listen to the podcast.

00:13:45.033 --> 00:13:45.998
I see you.

00:13:45.998 --> 00:13:47.261
You're like, I know.

00:13:47.261 --> 00:13:48.365
I know I need to make my list.

00:13:48.365 --> 00:13:49.086
Make your list.

00:13:49.509 --> 00:13:53.288
Start now, do not wait until you're inside the course or inside alumni.

00:13:53.288 --> 00:14:02.730
Start now making your list, because I promise you this is not boring, it is not difficult, but a huge part of it starts with making your list.

00:14:02.730 --> 00:14:03.825
I don't care where you keep it.

00:14:03.825 --> 00:14:05.787
You can keep it in Paprika.

00:14:05.787 --> 00:14:09.630
I'm going to show you exactly how to do that inside this app that we absolutely love.

00:14:09.630 --> 00:14:12.413
I'll show you the tips and tricks for how to do that on my screen.

00:14:12.413 --> 00:14:13.453
You can watch me do it.

00:14:13.453 --> 00:14:14.693
It's not difficult.

00:14:14.693 --> 00:14:20.681
Okay, you can keep it in a notebook If you're a pen and paper person, like one of our favorite people in the world, susan.

00:14:20.681 --> 00:14:22.485
Susan girl, we love you so much.

00:14:22.485 --> 00:14:24.149
Listen, susan's awesome.

00:14:24.149 --> 00:14:37.048
You're going to look forward to meeting her inside our membership and Robin and Lainey and Mariana so many great people waiting to meet you that are already on this journey, getting results, feeling better.

00:14:37.048 --> 00:14:40.363
But Susan loves pen and paper, so if you're like Susan, grab it.

00:14:40.363 --> 00:14:43.470
Do what works for you in these areas.

00:14:43.649 --> 00:14:44.793
Find you a nice notebook.

00:14:44.793 --> 00:14:47.129
It doesn't have to be just a random piece of paper.

00:14:47.129 --> 00:14:48.575
Make a nice little notebook.

00:14:48.575 --> 00:14:53.749
You can go on Amazon or one of these different places and buy you a nice little, pretty notebook.

00:14:53.749 --> 00:14:59.350
Spend a few extra dollars, get you something that is a joy to hold and you open up and you make your favorites list.

00:15:00.081 --> 00:15:00.861
I love that.

00:15:00.861 --> 00:15:04.649
A notebook that brings you joy when you look at it.

00:15:04.649 --> 00:15:05.652
It makes you smile.

00:15:05.652 --> 00:15:06.561
You want to open it.

00:15:06.561 --> 00:15:07.043
You want to use it.

00:15:07.043 --> 00:15:09.611
Another great tip for making this easy and enjoyable If you've got a notebook you love, you're going to want to open it.

00:15:09.611 --> 00:15:10.053
You want to use it.

00:15:10.053 --> 00:15:16.351
Another great tip for making this easy and enjoyable If you've got a notebook you love, you're going to want to open it and use it and then make categories in it.

00:15:16.351 --> 00:15:37.445
You can break it up by the tabs, have a breakfast category, a lunch category, a snacks category, a desserts category, a favorite drinks category, and I want you to just start writing in there, either like a website where you found a recipe you used, or you can write down, like the Power and Plants cookbook, original Thrive, wherever you found it, in the title, and then just jot down any little changes you made.

00:15:37.806 --> 00:15:45.030
For me, getting inside Paprika is so easy because I can then, once I type in that recipe and usually I don't have to type it you can scan it.

00:15:45.030 --> 00:15:50.951
If you have our cookbooks, or if you go and buy them, you going to get the paprika file.

00:15:50.951 --> 00:15:53.043
This is a file you can download.

00:15:53.043 --> 00:15:58.842
When you get your cookbook, you'll also get a pdf version, but you can download it into your paprika app.

00:15:58.842 --> 00:16:01.990
It will go straight in there and then you can move it around.

00:16:01.990 --> 00:16:12.950
You can put it in categories you want so as you find your new favorites out of the cookbook, you can just click a little box and put whatever category you want it to go into, like make your own, find your new favorites category.

00:16:12.970 --> 00:16:15.981
Don't worry, I know it may sound complicated and you think I don't have time for that.

00:16:15.981 --> 00:16:23.015
You don't have time not to do it and I'm going to show you how and walk you straight through this inside the course as we get into alumni.

00:16:23.015 --> 00:16:27.124
Once we have that foundation, I'm even going to show you how to build your own menu plans.

00:16:27.124 --> 00:16:30.107
It is going to blow your mind how easy it is.

00:16:30.107 --> 00:16:33.192
And then you're going to think how could I ever think this was difficult?

00:16:33.192 --> 00:16:36.015
How could I have ever thought this was rabbit food?

00:16:36.015 --> 00:16:42.684
And you're going to think I never want to go back because you're going to have all new substitutes for those, all things that you love to eat.

00:16:42.684 --> 00:16:58.905
If you like lasagna or brownies or really hearty soup that tastes like it has a cream base or a cheesy thing, those are my things I had to have cheese, milk, dairy, all that stuff, or a pudding that tastes like it has heavy cream in it but it doesn't and it's actually healthy for you.

00:16:58.905 --> 00:17:05.885
All those things we're going to be showing you how to do, step by step, as we go together, and it will blow your mind, but right now you can start.

00:17:06.287 --> 00:17:07.790
We've given you the keys here.

00:17:07.790 --> 00:17:11.268
Get your notebook and just start writing your favorite things.

00:17:11.268 --> 00:17:15.240
I'm not even going to go into what's something you can have for breakfast, lunch or snack.

00:17:15.240 --> 00:17:22.804
To make it quick and easy for you, I want you to think about some little things that you could do, things that you like to eat that you're already doing that.

00:17:22.804 --> 00:17:24.951
Maybe you could easily switch it up to whole food, plant based.

00:17:24.980 --> 00:17:34.709
If you don't know how, right now get started and come into our free group, pie power and plantscom forward, slash pie and ask people hey, I really love this thing, what would you eat?

00:17:34.709 --> 00:17:36.635
Instead, brainstorm with each other.

00:17:36.635 --> 00:17:50.991
When one person ask a question, I want you to jump in and give them one idea and then, when you ask a question, everybody's going to jump in and give you an idea and before long, you're going to have this amazing resource, even inside the free group.

00:17:50.991 --> 00:17:55.689
This is just scratching the surface of what you have available to you here.

00:17:55.689 --> 00:18:00.021
On top of that, in there you have every single episode searchable.

00:18:00.021 --> 00:18:05.834
So if you think I love my morning oats but I just don't know how to make it whole food plant-based without my milk, how am I not going to have my milk?

00:18:05.834 --> 00:18:06.940
What am I going to have?

00:18:06.940 --> 00:18:09.626
Instead, get in the free group and search milk.

00:18:09.626 --> 00:18:10.730
It will pull up every time.

00:18:10.730 --> 00:18:13.547
Jare and I have ever said milk in any single podcast episode.

00:18:13.547 --> 00:18:14.344
This should blow your mind.

00:18:14.344 --> 00:18:29.867
Right now you have something at your fingertips that is going to make things amazing for you, that are going to make things so simple and exciting for you, and you can start writing down my favorite milk substitute when you get ideas from each other in that notebook Milk, whichever one you've tried or you liked, whatever the brand was.

00:18:30.048 --> 00:18:31.009
Look at those ingredients.

00:18:31.009 --> 00:18:31.970
Turn that puppy over.

00:18:31.970 --> 00:18:38.355
You don't want to be buying things with oil and sugar and all that, but find that oatmeal substitute for breakfast Smoothies.

00:18:38.355 --> 00:18:39.520
How can I make those easier?

00:18:39.520 --> 00:18:40.624
They're real quick to grab.

00:18:40.624 --> 00:18:42.127
Make ahead of time, grab and take.

00:18:42.127 --> 00:18:43.111
Could you make packs?

00:18:43.111 --> 00:18:45.542
Put those in the freezer the night before.

00:18:45.542 --> 00:18:49.710
Make four or five packs where you just dump all the stuff you need and then you can just dump it out.

00:18:49.710 --> 00:18:56.342
Or buy the pre-made smoothie packs that have nothing but the fruits and veggies and make sure you're getting some greens in there.

00:18:56.342 --> 00:18:57.846
Get your greens, okay.

00:18:57.846 --> 00:19:02.201
Do the same thing for lunch, dinner and drinks if you don't know where to start.

00:19:02.603 --> 00:19:06.721

00:19:37.051 --> 00:19:42.105
This is giving me so much time because I now have my energy back, I have clarity of thought.

00:19:42.105 --> 00:19:45.871
I can get so much more done in a day because I took the time.

00:19:45.871 --> 00:19:50.826
I carved out the time to do this Instead of when I might have been scrolling or doing something else.

00:19:50.885 --> 00:20:00.521
Right, look for those places where you can gain a little bit of time and just say to yourself right now I am my number one asset I'm talking about your asset that you have in your life to get things done.

00:20:00.521 --> 00:20:07.606
As far as your thing to draw on, like you think about in business, oh, I need to be productive and I need to take another business course and I need to take a course on being a mom.

00:20:07.606 --> 00:20:14.844
You need to get your body fueled right so you can understand those things when you take them, so you can feel like putting the principles into practice when you study them.

00:20:14.844 --> 00:20:22.271
It's real hard to do things when you can't think well, when you're exhausted all the time, and you don't have to stay that way for one more moment.

00:20:22.271 --> 00:20:27.027
So we look forward to getting to know you inside of our free group pie and go right now.

00:20:27.067 --> 00:20:30.893
If you don't have the cookbook yet, get the recipes and get started.

00:20:30.893 --> 00:20:36.351
Just find one you favorite and before long you're going to be filling out that beautiful notebook that you're going to order.

00:20:36.351 --> 00:20:38.165
That's three very simple things.

00:20:38.165 --> 00:20:40.265
You could do all three of those things in 10 minutes.

00:20:40.265 --> 00:20:42.048
Easy Tops, 10 minutes.

00:20:42.048 --> 00:20:43.373
Do it now for yourself.

00:20:43.373 --> 00:20:45.567
Don't say, oh, I'll do that later, you're not going to do it.

00:20:45.567 --> 00:20:53.099
Do it, it now.

00:20:53.099 --> 00:20:53.579
I'm calling you out.

00:20:53.579 --> 00:20:54.901
I want to see your name inside our free group pie.

00:20:54.901 --> 00:20:56.162
We're going to celebrate together when you come in.

00:20:56.162 --> 00:21:26.017
We can't wait to get to know you more and we will see you there, thank you.
