In this episode of Clean Plates I sit down with my good friend Samuel Farley. Sam is a real estate agent as well as one of the most balanced and disciplined humans I know.
We delve into the interplay between food, health, and spiritual growth.
We highlight how that eating is an act of energy exchange and explore the spiritual aspects of food, such as faith and intentionality.
Key topics include water quality, mindful consumption, and the power of consumer choice (“voting with your dollar”). We both advocate for balance and self-discipline, emphasizing fasting, moderation, and the alignment of mind, body, and soul.
The conversation also encourages growing your own food and staying open to diverse perspectives as part of a holistic approach to personal and collective well-being.
