Herbie of the Week: Suzanna (From Bodybuilder to Plant-Based Tennis Champ!) Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category: Herbies

Meet our Herbie of the Week: Suzanna!

A couple months ago I received an email from Suzanna about how she went from a meat-eating Ms. Natural Olympia bodybuilder to a plant-based tennis playing champion and educator.

As soon as I read that, I just had to ask her to be part of the Herbie of the Week series!

I'll let Suzanna take it away...

I am a former Ms. Natural Olympia drug-free bodybuilding champion. Bodybuilders believe in eating a lot …

A Vegan Taste of Nice, France & Monaco (South of France) Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category: Travel

As you may have heard, I'm in France this summer.

We flew to Nice after a quick excursion in Boston and brief layover in Montreal.

Another (Brief) Vegan Taste of Boston Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category: Travel

Last week we left for our summer abroad... stopping in one of our all-time favorite cities, Boston, along the way (Fun fact: Scott and I lived in Boston for about four years when I attended law school).

Boston is a beautiful city with a spirit and pride I can't quite describe. The people and culture are distinctively different, but in a way that's refreshing and honest.
