Ep 209: Janet Verney - Getting to the Root Cause of a Debilitating Mystery Illness

Ep 209: Janet Verney - Getting to the Root Cause of a Debilitating Mystery Illness

Rip welcomes author and health coach, Janet Verney, to the PLANTSTRONG Podcast.

For 40 years, Janet suffered from an undiagnosed illness that affected her lungs and gut, leading to years of medical treatments, antibiotics, and even a cumbersome breathing machine.

In 2013, she started focusing on optimizing her health through lifestyle changes and a whole foods, plant-based diet and it was only then that her real healing began. As she says in the episode, she now has control over her illness. It no longer controls her. Today, she is affectionately referred to as the "plant-based princess of positivity" by friends and clients.

As a coach, she helps others "unearth" their dis-ease to get to the root cause of their issues. How?

* She helps you "weed" out the excuses and roadblocks

* She teaches you to "nourish" your body with nutrition, self-care, and doing the things you love

* If you weed and nourish, you will "bloom" into the person you were always meant to be

Her books Roots2Wellness and her new cookbook Health'd Up are available at https://janetverney.com/
