Plant-Powered Performance for Purpose-Driven Leaders You could serve 10x more people if you had the stamina. You know it, your team knows it, and God knows it. Here's what nobody's saying out loud: You've built a high-level business running on fumes. You teach discipline to thousands but secretly can't control your own fork. You're crushing it on stage with a body that's quietly falling apart backstage, and the brain fog that cost you that deal last week? The exhaustion that made you cancel again? Every single "I don't feel good" day is someone who needed your breakthrough but didn't get it because your body tapped out early. Your body is the bottleneck to your calling, while you're watching your peers decline at your age. Some already dropped out, but you refuse to be next. Your parents got sick when they hit your years, but you’re determined that will NOT be your story. If you've thought, "I know how to scale, but my body won't fully back me up," you’re in the right place. Jarrod and Anita Roussel have spent nearly 5 decades in healthcare working with kingdom leaders like you who have big God-given vision while their bodies keep breaking down. Here's what they learned: You don't need another diet, because diets don’t provide sustainable results. What you need is your body to finally cooperate with all that God has called you to do. That's why they created the 5-Step Accelerator Blueprint rooted in Scripture and whole plant foods, but here's the part that matters most: It actually works for people who don't have time for 3 hour meal prep or eating food that steals their joy. It’s time to escape the miserable attempts at health that involve calorie counting, obsessing over points at business dinners, and pulling out your phone to calculate macros when you should be building relationships and closing deals. Welcome to the food that optimally fuels million-dollar decisions, meals you can make in hotels, energy that lasts through back-to-back stages, and a body that finally feels as strong as your calling. Here's what you'll get every episode: The energy to say YES to every God-given opportunity without wondering if you'll crash halfway through. Mental clarity for the decisions that actually move the needle. The stamina to show up strong when thousands are counting on you, no more barely “surviving” the day. We'll show you how to stop the inflammation that’s stealing your focus, reverse what you were told was "chronic," and know exactly what to eat without all the exhausting mental gymnastics that completely waste your brain power. You'll learn to make meals you love in minutes that actually taste incredible, get hours back for what grows your business, and watch your labs improve right alongside your income. This isn't just about looking better in photos or fitting some ideal image. This is a movement of Kingdom leaders and entrepreneurs, banning together proclaiming to our enemy, “You can NOT steal my health anymore!” This is about finishing what God started in us, serving others and expanding God’s Kingdom together, and being the grandparent who runs with our grandkids instead of watching from the sideline. Having the stamina to fulfill our ENTIRE calling, not just the parts you have energy for left over after dragging through another exhausting day. Your business has a ceiling right now, and your body set it. We're going to show you how to blow the roof off, breaking the generational health curse so your kids never have to fight this battle, and turn your body from the thing holding you back into the greatest business asset you have. If you're done leaving Kingdom impact on the table because you're too tired to pick it up, hit subscribe and press play. Fuel Your Body. Fulfill Your Calling. This is Power On Plants.

Jarrod had no idea this was coming.
I pulled him into a lightning round: 13 foods that are in our grocery cart on repeat, power fueling our bodies, and consistently costing us less than what we used to spend eating the old way.
Cruciferous vegetables that fight cancer. Beans that reverse other “chronic” disease. Berries that slow aging. The leafy greens that protects\ your heart. The list just keeps going!
Your healthcare provider runs the tests, orders the meds, and sends you home to "manage" your condition. Meanwhile, there's something backed by reliable research that could potentially reverse it. Something simple, and nobody told you. But WHY?
Not because it doesn't work. This has reversed cancers, MS, lupus, type 2 diabetes, autoimmune diseases, chronic headaches, stubborn weight, crushing fatigue, joint pain, ...
