Podcast appearances and mentions of heather mcdougall

In our final episode of the "Doctors Gone Rogue" series, we're paying tribute to a true legend in the field of holistic medicine. Today, we honor the remarkable legacy of Dr. John McDougall, who passed away last month. I'm also excited to feature the incredible work of Dr. Joel Kahn, known as "America's Healthy Heart Doc." Both are plant-based doctors who believe in food as medicine. First up, let's talk about Dr. Joel Kahn. Dr. Kahn transitioned from traditional cardiology to holistic practices after experiencing the profound benefits of a plant-based vegan diet himself. Believing in the power of nutrition for heart health, he now focuses on non-traditional diagnostic tools and prevention tactics. This interview feels more like a night at the Laugh Factory than a conversation with a cardiologist! Dr. Kahn's blend of facts and humor had us in stitches as we covered topics like nutrition, longevity, sex, stress, and “how not to die!” Next, we turn our attention to the beloved Dr. John McDougall. A physician and nutrition expert, Dr. McDougall dedicated his life to teaching the power of a whole-food, starch-based diet in preventing and reversing chronic diseases. His journey began after a massive stroke at age 18, which led him to embrace holistic, plant-based nutrition as a path to true healing. Dr. McDougall's legacy is monumental. He founded the renowned McDougall Program, authored best-selling books, and passionately advocated for dietary therapy as a cornerstone of health. His impact on the medical community and the lives of countless patients is immeasurable. On June 25th, Dr. McDougall's daughter, Heather McDougall, announced his passing. Dr. McDougall leaves behind quite the legacy, and we re-play this interview to honor that legacy today. So, let's dive into this special episode, the final episode of the "Doctors Gone Rogue" series, honoring the legacies of Dr. Joel Kahn and Dr. John McDougall. These two plant-based doctors are living proof of the healing power of nutrition. They have bucked the traditional route of medicine and truly embody the notion that food heals.

ABOUT HEATHER: Heather McDougall is the co-founder of Bogobrush, along with her brother John McDougall, which they recently exited earlier this year. Both are children of a dentist who pursued careers in other fields but they have come full circle and returned to the toothbrush. More importantly, they are using this single, everyday, taken-for-granted item and using it as a means for social change. More than just another toothbrush company, Heather has some very inspiring ideas about the ways in which the toothbrush can affect our environment and under-served communities, as well as communities in other impoverished areas outside of our borders, in a positive way. The Bogobrush is a great example of how the items we choose in our lives could carry a value that goes way past a monetary number. She's an honors law school grad, a yoga teacher, and a social entrepreneur - bogobrush and a think tank with her brother. She's worked on venture finance and non-profit lobbying, and she loves singing, dancing, art, and the great outdoors.

On this episode of PlastChicks – The Voices of Resin - Lynzie Nebel and Mercedes Landazuri host Heather McDougall, Visionary Entrepreneur and Educator for Planet Allies and CEO of Bogobrush. They discuss eco-empowerment, global sustainability, climate anxiety and dealing with the hype and fear around plastics to shift to things that are working.

Matt sits down with Bogobrush co-founder Heather McDougall. Bogobrush makes eco-friendly toothbrushes designed to help cut down on everyday single-use plastic consumption. Heather had a pretty interesting layup to starting Bogobrush which is technically a family business, with her brother, John, being a co-founder. Heather and her brother wanted to position Bogobrush as a company that can directly do some good in fighting single-use plastics but, they also wanted to work in a philanthropic side as well, something Heather is particularly well versed in.  In this episode, we chat about the logistics of making a product that you pretty much always need to keep up with hygiene (at least we hope) and a lot of the innovations the McDougalls made to make their products as eco-friendly as possible. We also got a chance to talk about burnout and mental health, keeping healthy relationships, and what that means in regards to building and running a business.

In this episode, Bailey chats with CEO of Bogo Brush and sustainability keynote speaker, Heather Mcdougall. They talk about what a efficient sustainable society could look like, the truth and value behind plastic, the privilege behind the Zero Waste Movement and how to stay sustainable during this holiday season. This is not just another episode about recycling as they go deep on topics that can be overwhelming to talk about while giving listeners real life examples on how to be more sustainable while also taking care of mental health.

It’s the first returning guest to the Podcast, its Sommelier Heather McDougall from sipstoronto.com. Heather’s outlines a thoughtful/passionate approach to how restaurants can improve the lives of all those who work in the service industry. This is a really smart episode. 

Heather is a vibrant and curious gal who is determined to help the world be a brighter place. She's an honors law school grad, a yoga teacher, and a social entrepreneur - bogobrush and a think tank with her brother. She's worked on venture finance and non-profit lobbying, and she loves singing, dancing, art, and the great outdoors. Heather and her brother grew up in a small town in North Dakota. With a dad as a dentist, John's path to design school, and heather's to law, were far from the family business. During school, however, they decided to use their talents to create products with environmental and social value, and as fate would have it, they couldn't resist starting with a toothbrush. BOGOBRUSH believes the world deserves a toothbrush worth caring about. They believe that starts with knowing where it came from, and how it was made. They believe it grows from an attention to aesthetics that will make you smile, and deepens with the beauty of giving back to someone in need. They believe that what is good for the planet, is good for us. They believe in the little toothbrush that could. Behind each Bogobrush is a group of determined, caring, visionary, and fun loving people who bring it to life. From factory machinists and material scientists, to product photographers and dental hygienists, they are an eclectic group on a mission to do something that matters.

In a special episode of After Class, Kacee Must interviews friend, inventor, entrepreneur, and documentary filmmaker Heather McDougall about all things sustainability. Heather is the CEO and co-founder of Bogobrush, a biodegradable and recyclable toothbrush! She sits down to chat about how brushing your teeth can be a moment of inspiration, her 8 limb approach to sustainability, and more! Listen to the end for a beautiful surprise!

Is caring for the earth a part of your self-care practice? Did you know it could be? Earth advocacy isn’t just using sustainable products and protesting to save the trees. It’s also a daily practice of tuning into your connection with the planet and honoring that connection from moment to moment. In celebration of Earth Day, and to help us understand this daily practice concept, this week’s conversation is with social entrepreneur, performer, yoga teacher, public speaker, and activist Heather McDougall. Heather is the co-founder and CEO of Bogobrush, which makes eco-friendly toothbrushes, and she works with people all over the world to support and create sustainable communities. Take a listen as we chat about: - what sustainability is - how to ease eco-anxiety - how your thoughts impact the planet - how to create a sustainable lifestyle, not just consume more sustainable products - how to remove anxiety and judgment around environmental decisions - traveling with purpose - and more!

Once upon a time in America, the opera, like most things, wasn’t for everyone. But in the 21st century, some new shows are pushing the form forward to resonate more widely and deeply. Can opera rise out of its origins and touch communities of color with complex histories and relationships to those not of color? Host Paige Hernandez and contributor Tazewell Thompson tell their stories of encountering opera for the first time and their reflections on being recent first-time librettists.

They engage creatives from across the opera community and draw from their own experiences as artists of color in a conversation steeped in creativity, humanity, honesty. Let’s raise our voices and break some glass.
