At Plant Trainers we’re serious about helping you “improve your quality of life through plant-based nutrition and fitness”. We know that feeling.

Helping families who are overwhelmed with illness, mental health or behavior disorders embrace a more “planti-ful” diet. Do you know your family needs to make a change so they don’t end up overweight, sick or on medications? Do you know a plant-based lifestyle could change your children’s conditions, help them succeed more academically or socially at school or keep them from being in pain from medical conditions? Are you so scared of having to raise your family alone due to unhealthy foods and lifestyle choices you or your partner are making? We were there years ago, Shoshana was pregnant with their second child. Our eldest had severe eczema and behavioral difficulties. Adam had a tumor and was told that the chances of him dying before the age of 40 were quite high. The answers were to medicate our son, surgically remove Adam’s tumor (and kidney) and cross our fingers that no one got sicker. This was not acceptable for us, and it should not be acceptable to you. Our research and studies have given us the tools to not just survive, but thrive. The power of proper nutrition and healthy lifestyle choices has cleared our son’s eczema and behavioral issues, shrunken Adam’s tumor and has us thriving so many years later. Not only that, this gift has given us the responsibility to help so many other people, like you, on their journey to health. Helping families who are overwhelmed with illness, mental health or behavior disorders embrace a more “planti-ful” diet and other healthy lifestyle skills in order to have a more peaceful, worry free healthy family life is our priority. If you’re looking to properly nourish your body and/or get your children eating healthy foods and develop healthy habits, then we are your simplest way to achieving those goals. When you choose to work with us you will not only feel confident and accountable in your healthy future, but you will have access to all our knowledge and experiences that we have encountered along the way.

For the past few years, I’ve chosen ONE WORD to guide how I live, work, and show up.

One year it was Positivity — a reminder that perspective matters, especially when things feel heavy.

Last year it was Ease — learning to soften, to stop forcing, to let life meet me halfway.
For 2026, my word is CHI.💫✨

Because everything is energy.
Our thoughts.
Our bodies.
Our emotions.
The way we give.
The way we rest.
The way we receive.

When energy is flowing, positivity feels natural — not forced.
Ease becomes possible — not earned.
Calm replaces urgency.

Time for myself becomes fuel, not guilt.

Giving to others comes from overflow, not depletion.

CHI is life force.

It’s the reminder that when we nourish ourselves at the most fundamental level, everything else works better — relationships, health, clarity, creativity, resilience.

This year isn’t about doing more.
It’s about protecting, restoring, and honouring energy — so I can show up fully for myself and for others. And more will hapoem as a result.

Here’s to a year of alignment, vitality, and flow.

💫✨CHI ✨💫

Let me know your word!

I’m starting to think about my one word for 2026 and I’d love your inspiration.

My word for 2025 was ease — I even had a bracelet made to remind me. There were definitely moments this year where I found myself not living in the spirit of ease… but honestly, I don’t know how I would have navigated some of those curveballs without it. Focusing on that word grounded me. It reminded me that even when life tests you, choosing to approach things with ease can make everything feel just a little lighter.

I’m absolutely going to continue practising ease in 2026… but I’m also looking for some fresh inspiration.

So before I start meditating on it, plant your seeds:
✨ What one word do you think should guide me next year?
✨ And do you have any great tips for choosing your own word?

Share this post with someone who loves choosing a word—or maybe needs to choose one for 2026. 💙

✨ “If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always got.”
– Henry Ford

When it comes to your health, your happiness, and even your sense of purpose, this couldn’t be more true.

If you’ve been doing the same things and not getting the results you want—maybe it’s time to shift. When you try something new, doors open:

🌱 You may finally discover the health you’ve been chasing.
🤝 You may finally find a community of supportive people who lift you up.
🔥 You may even stumble upon a passion that not only changes your own perspective but also inspires you to be a force for good in this world.

It all starts with being willing to take a different step than the one you’ve always taken.

☕ Not everyone should drink coffee… but let’s be real—most people just want to know if it’s good for them and are looking for a reason to keep it in their diet.

Here are 6 need-to-know facts about coffee (organic or not):

1️⃣ Antioxidants & Longevity – Coffee’s main antioxidant, chlorogenic acid, helps enhance autophagy (cell cleanup), which may explain why coffee drinkers often live longer. 🧫

2️⃣ Roast Matters– Dark roasts (even Starbucks) can wipe out up to 90% of chlorogenic acid losing most of the health benefits. Choose light-to-medium roasts preserve the most. 😮

3️⃣ Milk Choice – Soy milk = fine ✅. Dairy milk or cream = cuts chlorogenic acid absorption by about 40% ❌.

4️⃣ Brew Method – Brewed coffee (longer water contact) holds more antioxidants than espresso. Hot or cold brew? No real difference. 💧

5️⃣ Cholesterol Impact – Paper-filtered coffee keeps out compounds (cafestol & kahweol) that raise cholesterol. French press, Turkish, or boiled coffee? Not so kind to your numbers. Instant coffee is safe here too. 🩸

6️⃣ Capsule Coffee– Most pods do have paper filters (so no cholesterol spike), but the hot plastic adds small amounts of estrogenic chemicals. Still, levels are within safety limits. 🫛

✨ Bottom line: If you want the healthiest coffee, go for a medium roast, brewed through a paper filter, with non-dairy milk (if you like it creamy).

How do you like your coffee?

4 years later.
Both of us with so much growth.
Doing the best we can.
Enjoying life.
But the lessons I’ve learned in the last 4 years seems to outweigh the 42 before that.
Now I’m not afraid of ageing - I’m afraid of not being myself.

What lessons have you learned.
(That IG won’t b@nn)

Mini Putt Life Lessons ⛳️👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

Just went mini putting with the fam and somehow ended up with a few golden life and biz lessons. Because apparently, wisdom hides in windmills and bumpy green carpets…

🏌️‍♀️ Keep it simple.
Every time I tried to get fancy… yeah, it did not work out. The basic, boring shots were the ones that actually got the ball in the hole. A little creativity? Yes. Reinventing the wheel? No thanks.

💙 Try again (and again).
The second or third try was always better. So if it doesn’t click right away—whether it’s a putt or a pitch—don’t freak out. You’re just warming up.

💙 Slow and steady wins... the putter?
Spoiler: I did not get a hole-in-one. But small, steady taps got me way closer than wild swings. (Applies to business. Applies to mini golf. Applies to folding laundry, tbh.)

📸 Bonus tip: take off your f***y pack before photos.
You’re welcome for that one. 😂

So yeah, mini putt: 10/10 would recommend for fun and unexpected life coaching.

**Granola: Healthy or Sugar Bomb?**

Store-bought granola might seem like a healthy choice, but many brands sneak in tons of sugar, syrups, and oils. The good news? Making your own is super easy! Mix oats, nuts, and seeds, bake with a touch of maple syrup, and add dried or fresh fruit for a burst of colour and natural sweetness. Your morning bowl just got a whole lot better!

I’ve been thinking a lot of the time we spent caring for animals at the animal sanctuary.

The kids learned a lot about leadership and caring for others.

We learned a lot about animals l, their needs and their personalities!

I was even able to use my healing skills with the animals the same way we do humans. After all- we are all animals!

If there is one thing that I have learned in this life is that helping others brings so many good fortunes.

And part of being able to help others is helping and taking care of yourself.

I would love to hear from you? Are you in the season of taking care of yourself, or taking care of others? I would love to have a 15 minute conversation with you went to one to hear more about it.

Type “ME” in the comments or in the DM‘s to book a one on one with Shoshana.

We love exploring and discovering plant-based options! 🌱✨
If you have teenagers, it’s a great opportunity to get them involved in the planning process. Have them research restaurants they want to try—they’ll be more likely to explore new flavours and textures and might even surprise you!
And of course, the conversations you’ll have will be memorable and strengthen your family bond. ❤️
