The Power Of The 80/20 Rule With Peggy Brusseau

In this episode of The Plant Trainers Podcast, we talk with Peggy Brusseau all about the power of a plant-based family, the 80/20 rule, and how to NOT become a white bread and jam vegan. And if you stick to the end you will hear Peggy’s secret to making a great soup every single time. Peggy’s story of how she became plant-based/vegan is unique and one we have never heard before on The Plant Trainers Podcast.
