Today we are speaking to Soulgood founder Cynthia Nevels –a woman who has turned grief into stepping stones in a pursuit to heal herself and others. It all began over a decade ago, when she witnessed the amazing power of plant-based food in her own health journey. By embracing a new way of eating, she was able to manage Graves’ disease symptoms and give up prescription medication. Now she’s reaping even more benefits as she transitions to a vegan lifestyle.
