As we mark Joanna’s one-year milestone with Lean with Plants, I wanted to share how she’s lost the 30lbs and now can KEEP it off after starting dieting at just 7 years old. 
In this episode we dive into escaping decades of yo yo diets and fads, gaining confidence and building habits and becoming yourself again after motherhood and weight gain  
It is truly an honour to see someone transform before you eyes like Joanna has, and her story is sure to encourage you too.


How Joanna lost 30lbs, transformed her habits and found food freedom after decades of yo yo dieting

Calling all overweight plant based women! This is a podcast for FRUSTRATED vegan gal's who can’t shift the fat, all while eating a healthy vegan diet! (Yes we exist.) Weight loss doesn’t have to be a mystery, but with all the pseudo science and outright quackery online it’s hard to understand the true WHY and HOW. I’m Chelsea Cullen and I’ve lost 18kg (nearly 40 pounds) as a vegan ONCE I understood the science of weight loss, which has nothing to do with counting calories or celery juice by the way.I’m here to simplify the TRUTH about fat burning, what foods to eat for the most effective weight loss, the mindset tools to get you to your goal, and how to make it stick FOR LIFE.

Ever found yourself in weight loss discussions, surrounded by differing opinions, personal insecurities, and well-intentioned advice? It's a common challenge when aiming for your weight loss goals. But remember, you're not alone!
Join me for a live discussion with our Lean with Plants members, where we'll explore strategies for navigating these tough conversations with spouses, family, friends, and others. This journey can often lead us to feeling misunderstood or out of place, but it's vital to stay true to our aspirations and values, regardless of external validation.
Maintaining body autonomy and embracing our uniqueness, even in the face of obstacles or misunderstandings, is crucial for success. I hope this episode provides valuable insights into effective communication and self-assertion on your weight loss journey.
Always remember, your journey is yours alone, and authenticity is key to success.
