Successful Meal Systems with Sophia DeSantis

In this episode of The Plant Trainers Podcast, we talk with Sophia DeSantis all about successful meal systems and how simple this lifestyle can really be. Plant-based food does not have to be difficult, but without experience or a meal system in place, it can sure feel difficult. We talk all about how to navigate meal time with children, picky eaters, or family members with food preferences as well as a system called component cooking. You will love the meal ideas you get in this episode.

Sophia DeSantis is a health coach, meal systems expert and plant-based recipe creator who focuses on helping people feel empowered instead of overwhelmed when it comes to overall health and wellness. Small habits can lead to big changes. Being a teacher for 14 years, and getting her master’s degree in education, helped her understand that each person is unique in how they learn, and there is no one size fits all approach. She is now “retired” from teaching and runs a business full time while navigating life with 3 young boys.
