Summary: Rip Esselstyn is a former professional triathlete and firefighter who now works for Whole Foods Market through his company Engine 2. Rip is an amazing advocate for healthy eating, and Engine 2 is a great resource for anyone wanting to transition to a plant-based diet or simply include more unrefined plant foods in their diet. With his team, Rip hosts multiple retreats and events throughout the year where people can go to learn about the basics of how and why to eat what he calls a plant-STRONG diet. He’s also the creator of the Engine 2 food product line sold at whole foods, and is the author of three books - the third of which just came out in December 2016, and has had amazing success so far. If you aren't already part of the Engine 2 Seven Day Rescue Facebook Group, go change that now. It's an upbeat group of thousands of people eating this way, learning together, and cheering one another on. Rip was the first person to give me chance to bring my voice into this movement, and I will forever be grateful to him for that. We shared a great conversation, and I am so happy to be able to share it with all of you.
