Ep. 78: Jane Esselstyn- The Birds, Bees, Twigs and Berries

Rip welcomes his sister, Jane Esselstyn, back to the PLANTSTRONG Podcast.

Many know Jane as a charismatic and energetic voice in the whole food, plant-based space, especially alongside her mother, Ann, in their fun YouTube Cooking Channel.

What you may not know is that she is also a registered nurse who uses her charisma and passion to teach Sex Education to middle schoolers! Jane is an advocate for helping both kids and adults to understand that part of being a healthy grown-up should include a healthy sex life.

It can be awkward to talk about these things and that’s why Jane really shines. She uses a healthy dose of empathy, compassion, and humor to talk about these subjects that both teens and adults are often too embarrassed to talk about.

Listener Note: We do use many of the clinical anatomical words because, as you’ll find out today, one of the components of a healthy sex life is communication. So, let’s start talking about it!

A plantstrong life has many benefits above AND below the belt - and a strong sex life should be one of them.
