[party in my plants] 156: How to Live Well, in a Nutshell! with Nikole Goncalves (aka Health Nut Nutrition)

Nikole Goncalves is the gal behind the beloved and mega popular YouTube channel (which has over 560K subscribers and over 39 Million views) Health Nut Nutrition, and in this here episode, she gave me the BEYOND *nutshell* scoop on all things food, nutrition, and sustainable, approachable wellness. And Trader Joes. We recorded this chat on national avocado day and believe me, this convo was all I could have *avo* wanted. (OK, sorry for the *guacward* pun...) What I love about this chatty Canadian (yes, she did say sorry and yes, I did make fun of her accent) is that she had such a down-to-earth approach to healthy eating and happy living. Her relationship with food has never been a rocky one and so her words are confident and refreshing to hear. We talk about how she found her calling, what it’s been like running her vlog from the bottom now she here, her new brand for plant loving pups, meditation, smoothie recipes, body shaming, and her upcoming book debut. For a talk that’ll have you as much on board for hypnosis as it will get you drooling over dessert, press play!   You’ll go nuts over hearing: Why it’s time to slow down and pay attention to how food makes you FEEL How one of the best YouTubers in food and wellness got her start One wicked smoothie recipe that’ll have you energized and ready to go Forget all about diets and eat intuitively and healthier Why listening to your body really is the way to go  What high functioning anxiety could look like and some methods for getting around it What’s the deal with hypnosis and how to start doing it for a calmer you The best puppy shopping spree products for your #HealthNutPup The perks of morning meditation and no-phone blocks of time And of course, yummy desserts to wrap it all up   Links related to this episode: The full show notes with all the deets from this episode!
