In this episode, I sit down with the amazing Lindsay for a real, honest, and super inspiring convo about her journey with food, weight, and self-love.If you've ever struggled with yo-yo dieting, shame around eating, or just trying to "figure it out" when it comes to health, this episode is for you.Lindsay opens up about her childhood trips to Weight Watchers and rigid food rules to investing in an expensive nutritionist who asked her to treat hunger like a math equation (hard pass). For years, she searched for answers and tried everything from rigid diets to rigorous exercise. When she noticed we were offering a plant-powered weight loss program, she was all over it. That’s when everything shifted.With the help of Drop It Club,  Lindsay discovered losing weight doesn’t have to be about restriction and guilt—it can actually be joyful, empowering, and delicious. Since starting Drop It, she’s down over 25 pounds, feeling amazing, and her whole family is loving the plant-powered meals, too (including her husband, who’s down 60 pounds!).We hope this one leaves you feeling hopeful, fired up, and hungry for a big ol’ plate of badass loaded fries.Helpful Links: ⁠⁠Join Drop It Club⁠⁠ Use code PODCAST at checkout for $100 off your first 3 months if you purchased by June 1, 2025. ⁠⁠Sweet Potato Stuffed with Creamed Spinach⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Breakfast Porridge ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Sesame Ginger Baked Tofu⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Caramel Pecan Cheesecake⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Badass Loaded Steak Fries⁠⁠ AboutClean Food Dirty Girl helps people eat more plants while celebrating imperfection.

If you’re like a lot of people, you might think transforming your health means sacrificing joy and white-knuckling change like you’re hiking up a mountain with an adult goat strapped to your back.But what if the health transformation that lasts the rest of your life comes from re-examining the relationship you have with your body and with food and to make changes that truly feel good?In this episode, I share my approach behind Drop It Club, my plant-powered weight loss program that’s rooted in thriving, not restricting.

In this episode, I chat with Hana Kahleova, MD, PhD, MBA, a leading endocrinologist and researcher, who shares evidence-based insights on how plant-based eating can reverse and prevent chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and even Alzheimer's. We dig into the newly updated Dietary Guidelines for Americans and why the heavy push for meat and dairy (while legumes and whole grains get sidelined) doesn’t line up with years of evidence. Dr. Kahleova breaks down what saturated fat is really doing inside the body in a way that’s simple and clear. She empowers us to make smarter, scientifically grounded nutrition choices.But this convo isn’t just about what’s on your plate. It’s also about when you eat, how you move, and why your sleep might be the key to better blood sugar control.If you’re dealing with type 2 diabetes, menopause, brain fog, or you just want to stack the odds in your favor for a more vibrant life, this episode is packed with empowering, science-backed info you can put to work today.Saturated fat + insulin resistance: The “fridge analogy” that explains how excess fat spills into your organs and gums up your metabolism.Meal timing: Why eating breakfast like a queen and dinner like a minimalist can improve blood sugar control by up to 20%.Acid load + leafy greens: How animal products increase dietary acid load—and why greens are your body’s built-in balancing system.Soy + menopause: The jaw-dropping study showing that just ½ cup of cooked soybeans a day dramatically reduced severe hot flashes.Brain health: A look at research on lifestyle changes and early-stage cognitive decline.Protein myths: Why the obsession and what your body does with excess protein.Helpful linksPhysicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM)Dietary Guidelines For AmericansThe Exam Room PodcastClean Food Dirty Girl Drop It Club: Plant-Powered Weight Loss that takes a low fat WFPB approach Clean Food Dirty Girl Meal Plan Club About Hana Kahleova, MD, PhD, MBA Dr. Kahleova is a board-certified endocrinologist, with a PhD in human physiology and pathophysiology, and a board certification in lifestyle medicine.

In this episode, I talk with Johanna, a former Drop It Club member, about her journey with plant-powered weight loss. Johanna shares what led her from vegetarian to fully plant-based, why traditional nutrition advice left her feeling defeated, and how Drop It Club helped her release weight (and unhelpful habits) without tracking, restriction, or obsessing over food.We discuss how eating three satisfying meals a day reduced mental load, ended constant snacking, and created unexpected emotional lightness and clarity. This conversation goes beyond the scale and into how this way of eating feels good enough to maintain for life.Helpful linksNut-free Swiss-style Cheesy SauceDrop It Club, our plant-fueled weight loss programRecipe Club, access over 5,200 WFPB recipes for just $12 per monthAboutClean Food Dirty Girl helps people eat more plants while celebrating imperfection.

In this episode, I sit down with Sarah Diederich, a badass vegan fitness coach who helps women build strength, confidence, and muscles they didn’t even know they were capable of. We dive into why lifting weights is so important for women, especially if you’re rocking a plant-based lifestyle, and how you can build solid, beautiful muscle without ever touching animal protein.Sarah walks me through her journey from academia to fitness coaching, and we get into the magic of personalized coaching, plus why nutrition and recovery matter just as much as the time you spend lifting. We also bust some myths about veganism and strength, talk about finding cardio that doesn’t make you want to scream, and geek out on stretching and mobility because your hips deserve love too.The big takeaway? Every woman can benefit from lifting and thriving on a vegan diet while crushing your fitness goals isn’t just possible, it’s empowering.Helpful linksFind VEGAINSARAH on Instagram @vegainsarahDrop It Club, our plant-fueled weight loss programThe Clean Food Dirty Girl Facebook communityAboutClean Food Dirty Girl helps people eat more plants while celebrating imperfection.

Brittany shares why she’s so obsessed with fermentation, how the process can be surprisingly healing, and why homemade sourdough is better for our health and the planet.We get into the community vibe (AKA the sourdough cult) that forms around baking, why long-fermented sourdough works for some people with gluten sensitivities, and the biggest head-ups for new bakers. We even tumble down the rabbit hole about the history of flour and how it’s processed today.If you’ve ever been curious about baking sourdough, or have a lonely sourdough starter in your fridge calling your name, this episode is a must-listen.Helpful linksThe Health Benefits of Long-Fermented Sourdough BreadCheck out the Sourdough Course and save $15 with the coupon code PODCASTSourdough starter from King Arthur Baking (affiliate link, and the starter Brittany and many course takers use)Keep the fermentation party going with the Miso WorkshopCheck out the Sourdough Course Wall of LoveFind delicious recipes to use with your sourdough in Meal Plan ClubRecipes Brittany used with freshly-milled flour: Caramel Apple Pumpkin Pie Breakfast Cake and Nutty Pumpkin Cranberry BarsAboutClean Food Dirty Girl helps people eat more plants while celebrating imperfection.
