Empowered by Plants VIP Small Group Coaching

Hi, I'm Ali Essig... 

Certified Plant-Based Nutritionist who helps women and moms lose weight, improve their gut health, and overcome emotional issues and food addictions through positive psychology and a plant-based diet. 

....and I do this this because I know what it is like to go through a health trauma that could have been prevented. 

On October 1, 2019 I found myself racing into the ER to see my husband slumped over in a wheelchair looking like he had just aged 50 years.

He was suffering from a stroke. 

After days in the hospital and multiple tests, they found no clear explanation. No hole in his heart, no heart arrhythmia, no genetic history. The only direction we were given was a piece of paper that said he needed to follow a heart-healthy diet by avoiding trans fat, saturated fat, cholesterol, and by eating more fiber and avoiding alcohol. 

I dived deep into the research and found that the best diet to prevent the kind of stroke my husband had is a plant-based diet. But it’s also the best diet to avoid most of the top 15 causes of death in America. It sparked an intense passion to share this news with the world. Because while I thought I didn’t have time to eat healthy with six little ones underfoot, if you don’t make time now, your body will make time for you in the future in the form of disease, sickness, or tragedy.

As a result of switching to a plant-based diet...

...my husband's important health numbers have significantly improved. His cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood pressure have all gone down. And he has lost over 20 pounds and has kept it off for years without exercise or calorie restriction.

While I’m thrilled with what we’ve managed to accomplish, I’ll admit that changing my family's eating patterns was a real struggle at first.

In the beginning, I didn’t know what I was doing and I didn’t have anybody I could ask.

Each time I went to make a quick lunch or dinner, I had to completely change my patterns. I used to use cheese and meat in many of our favorite dishes, and it was a struggle finding yummy recipes without animal products.

Yet even after all that research, I still made a lot of expensive mistakes along the way … costing me lots of time and money on programs, classes, books, and recipes, while causing me plenty of frustration when no one in my household wanted to eat it.

The good news is that I learned from those mistakes so you don't have to...

...and after continually getting asked by my friends to help them, I decided to become certified and make a business helping people lose weight by eating more plants. 

But the more and more I worked with women, the more i began to realize that our emotional connection to food plays a larger role than any knowledge about the benefits of eating more plants. 

I would work with clients who had more knowledge than me, but just couldn't change. 

They couldn't lose the weight. 

They romanticized their treats. 

They ate in secret. 

They would convince themselves they could moderate... but then eat the whole bag and feel so sick.

After helping hundreds of women I saw common patterns. Deeper emotional issues. Deeper addictions. And in order to actually find success, these issues need to be addressed. 

Let’s review just some of what you’ll learn in the Empowered by Plants Program:

But don’t just take my word for it.

So, I know I’ve covered a lot here today...  

Let me just quickly sum up what you’re going to get with the Empowered by Plants Program.

Learn the absolute best way of easing into eating more plants, how to feed your family and make sure they are getting the nutrition they need, how to improve athletic performance, lose weight on a plant-based diet, and how to improve your gut health.

If you've ever wondered what you can do right now to avoid heart disease, cancer, diabetes, or Alzheimer's disease, this program is for you. With my step-by-step guide, I teach you the why and the how so you can increase your lifespan and add up to 13 healthy years to your life.

Taking nutrition courses is easy, but putting them into practice is the challenge. That is why you want this program. We work on the most important things that are keeping you stuck. The thoughts in your head, your emotions, and your food addictions. 

We hold your hand every step of the way. And we don't just focus on what you eat, we look at the whole picture. We look at other holistic approaches to health like emotional eating, food addictions, sleep, exercise, and stress management. And we teach you about living in abundance and eating with mindfulness.

You will also learn the power that politics play in your eating choices and how these simple changes can make a dramatic, positive impact on the environment.

But let me tell you why this course is an even better value…

In the PlantWhys Empowered by Plants Program, I show you how to prevent life-altering health events, by the way, that would cost you far more than the price of this program. 

In the PlantWhys Empowered by Plants Program, I show you how to shop for plant-based foods so that you will actually save money each week on groceries.  

Over time, the program pays for itself through the money you will save on your medical costs and weekly grocery bills.
