S1E4 - Jalisa - Connecting With a Plant-Based Diet and Connecting With Her Spirituality

Episode 4: Jalisa Jalisa became a vegetarian in 2017 in full after watching some documentaries. This kind of trajectory probably sounds familiar to so many of us. After watching Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead; [https://www.rebootwithjoe.com/joes-films/] What the Health; [https://www.whatthehealthfilm.com/] and Cowspiracy [https://www.cowspiracy.com/]; Jalisa was inspired to give vegetarianism a go. However, it wasn't until she saw a documentary that made the connection between a plant-based diet and faith that she felt everything come full circle. We talk about what Jalisa eats on her plant-based diet, her experiences with friends, and family, the questions she's sick of answering, and the importance of representation in vegetarianism, veganism, and plant-based diets.
