[A new podcast is up and ready for you!](https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/meal-mentor/id958393826)

In this episode Jennifer (my copilot!) and I talk about the relationship between religion and veganism (it was Jennifer’s faith that brought her to a plant-based diet!) and the importance of being kind to yourself.

Finally, an open and honest look at hate-talk (why do we say things to ourselves we would never ever say to someone else?) and how detrimental bashing ourselves can really be.

**Creating a self-SUPPORTIVE environment involves taking a moment to appreciate yourself, too!**

Jennifer also talks about parenting little vegheads, how to adapt the meal plan meals to be more kid-friendly, AND she shares her #1 secret key for staying on track! (and what YOU should do more of to succeed!)

I also loved Jennifer’s honesty about losing, gaining it back, losing it again, and self-sabotage.

Don’t miss this episode!
