In January 2024, I had the pleasure of attending Woodstock Fruit Festival in Homestead, Florida. This was the first time I traveled to this festival which previously had been held yearly in upstate New York since 2011, and is the largest raw vegan event in the world.
What does that mean and what is a fruit festival / raw vegan event?...

Karen was no longer able to host live classes for students and couldn't offer her in-person coaching appointments. Instead of panicking, Karen quickly started exploring ways she could continue to share her passion for teaching the vegan and raw lifestyle. By leveraging her newsletter and social media platforms in a whole new way, Karen was able to bring in more new students and clients for online classes and sessions than ever before. In this episode, Karen shares how she did it. From creating interesting content and leveraging various tools for communication to restructuring her offers to appeal to new students and clients with varied interests, Karen shows us what a truly successful pivot can look like. Karen Ranzi, M.A. is an Award-Winning Author, Vegan Health Coach, Autism Expert, Internationally Acclaimed Speaker, Director of the Vegan Coach Certification Course, Raw Food Health Retreat Leader of retreats in Costa Rica and the Women's Health Retreat, and Speech/Language/Feeding Therapist.

Michael Arnstein has been a competitive runner from a young age and has always experimented with changing his diet to see if it would improve his performance and help him to lose weight.He became a vegan because of ethical reasons and later decided to try the high fat raw approach. After finding many downsides to that way of eating he gave up on a raw vegan diet until coming across the 80/10/10 Diet, a book that his wife encouraged him to read.He gave the diet a try and fell in love with the simplicity of a fruit and vegetable diet. His running performance improved immediately and he went on to run the 5th fastest time for an American at the New York Marathon (2:28.12, 30th Overall, 5th American, 2nd in age group 30-34, New PR 5:39 per mile average).He went on to compete and win many ultramarathon races, inspired by the invincible feeling the lifestyle gave him.Looking to share the lifestyle with others, he put together the Woodstock Fruit festival and brought together many of the leading influencers and experts in the fruitarian movement for the first time.

Today on the podcast I am very pleased to host ultra-running legend Michael Arnstein, aka “The Fruitarian”. Why the nickname? because this guy is killing it on foot at distances from 26.2 all the way to 100 miles and beyond, powered almost entirely by raw fruit.How is that even possible? I thought I was extreme. Tune in and find out.Beyond his amazing accomplishments on foot, Michael was also on site at the Bostin marathon finish line. His first-hand account of this unspeakable horror is reason enough to give the show a listen during this melancholy and difficult time.One more self-serving rant: the paperback version of Finding Ultra* is coming out on May 21. Sure, that's still a bit off in the distance, but it's already up on Amazon. Pre-order now by clicking HERE* and get it before it hits bookstores!Thanks for listening!SHOW NOTESMichael was far too humble to promote himself on the show, so I'm doing it for him. For more info on how he gets it done, visit his website (below). Also, he is the founder and host of the annual Woodstock Fruit Festival, being held this year on August 18-15 in Woodstock, NY.
