    You see this is what I just love about our movement, our incredible Tribe…what you always say, Chef AJ…when life hands you lemons, you make lemonade. Mimi has macular degeneration and yet, out comes a magnifying glass and she is able to do what she loves, therefore fulfilling her soul, her artistic self…literally, she's an artist! I thoroughly enjoyed this entire week of fabulous, vegan OGs rocking out their unique approaches to living a wfpe lifestyle, yet sharing similar tips as well…exercise, they eat the food, they don't let age prevent them from doing what they love and need to do. I'm down with this approach to life. Find a Tribe, a support system instead of listening to nay sayers and those who wag a finger at us for daring to do anything because we are of a certain age…oh pooh on them. Thank you, Chef AJ, an OG who kicks the old adages to the curb like act your age! Ridiculous. Great interview, Chef AJ and Mimi Kirk! Thank you, both! I gotta lift weights now and loving it, at soon to be 65 years young.πŸ’•πŸ’žπŸ’ŸπŸ€œπŸ€›πŸ€πŸ‘πŸ™

    I have been feeding my dog homemade food for years! She has vegan a few times a week, but other days I give her raw or cooked grass fed organic locally raised or wild meat and lots of veggies and fruit. She will eat any vegetable I give her!

    Thank you so much Chef AJ for interviewing Mimi Kirk, such a great insightful lady.

    I used to follow her a lot back when I was eating all raw (I was also at one time afraid to eat cooked food).

    It's good to know she still eats a lot of raw food, and inspiring me to bring back more raw foods into my diet. πŸ™‚

    This was certainly one of the most inspiring and uplifting interviews I've yet to be privileged to view. Mimi Kirk is absolutely fabulous and I've been so positively influenced by her words of wisdom, her light that shines from within, and her outer radiance. I'm so grateful to both of you for being there! I've loved being a Vegan for many years, and yet now as I approach my 71st birthday, I keep getting told that if I don't incorporate animal products into my diet, surely my bones will become brittle and I'll suffer fractures. Would love any feedback on this subject! Sending out lots of love from my heart to yours. xoxo

    What a delightful classy woman Mimi is. She is the classic example of why a person should go whole food plant based. It's so hard to believe she is 84 years old. She is such a positive person and has the right mindset.
