Summary

In honor of Mother's Day weekend, we're thrilled to feature everyone’s favorite PLANTSTRONG Woman Warrior - Ann Crile Esselstyn.

In late Spring, Rip and Ann did a Facebook live where she took questions from the audience and that's what we share today.

They run the gamut of subjects today including:

  • The foods and ingredients that are exciting her most these days

  • Her current favorite meals

  • Advice for those at the beginning of their plantstrong journey

  • How to navigate unsupportive loved ones

  • Exercise and how she's building a 40-day habit with her Peloton bike

  • How she gets her leafy greens

  • Her go-to quick and easy salad dressing

  • And... her favorite thing about being 87 years young!

As always, Ann holds nothing back and we wouldn’t want her any other way!
