The 12 most mind-bending, life-altering, eye-opening, podcasts I’ve listened to, Plus a recipe for Blue Majik & Blueberry Smoothie
After 57 years on this planet, I thought I knew a thing or two, but my mind has expanded so much from listening to these pods. I love Albert Einstein’s famous quote “The more I learn, the more I realize how much I don't know.”
I've fallen down the rabbit hole of these fascinating and informative conversations by experts in the fields of health, business, psychology, and nutrition. I find the podcast medium to be a very accessible way to consume information while power walking, doing errands, riding the subway or cleaning the kitchen.
The stories are full of inspiration, transformation and liberation. My picks are in no particular order. Four of them are from the same podcast host, because well, they’re just that good. I hope you take the time to listen and enjoy, as much as I have. I truly believe that important conversations like these make the world a better place.
We don’t know what we don’t know.

I promise you'll love this quick and delicious smoothie bowl, especially if the taste of bitter greens is not your thing. This blue-ness is rich, sweet and satisfying.
BLUE MAJIK & BLUEBERRY SMOOTHIE
Blue is a hard food color to find when eating the rainbow. The blue color itself is the most nutritious part of the food. The phytonutrients which naturally occur in blue food, called anthocyanin, catechin, quercetin, and kaempferol, are powerful antioxidants for our bodies. This blue smoothie is just so pretty -- and tastes so damn good.
