E037: From Chubby Kid to Vegan Model - Self-Empowerment, Food & Compassionate Living

Jun 21, 2018
01:10:32

In today’s episode with vegan model and social influencer Brad we talk a lot about (plant-based) foods, of course, but even more so about the impact food has on us and Planet Earth. Brad shares his story about growing up an unhealthy, lost, and chubby kid and how he one day decided to take matters in his own hands and start loosing weight. The reason? Simple, he wanted to attract that pretty girl in school! But the path it lead him down had a much greater impact on his life than he first might have thought.


What we’ll cover today is the importance of self-empowerment and of choosing a lifestyle that will make you both feel and look good. We talk about how what might seem like vain reasons at first, will actually catalyze you into a new version of yourself - a self-loving, self-empowered and humble you, who will one day be the one who helps and empowers others. Brad also gives his best advice on how to take on something as scary as going plant-based, and how it’s all about a marathon and not a sprint.


Brad is a former chubby and timid kid turned fit international male model represented throughout the US. His relationship with food has greatly impacted his life from a young age and in 2017, Brad decided to start weaning himself off meat as a way to find inner peace with the world around him. Today, Brad is purely plant based and shares his story and expertise to inspire others to obtain a physically, mentally, and spiritually healthier life.
