"1 in 3 people that you serve a cow’s milk to you’re making sick. And you’re up-charging for something that’s not going to make them sick."
Today we are chatting to Dotsie Bausch. An exceptional athlete and plant based advocate. She took home a medal in the 2012 London Olympic Games and won eight US national championships, two Pan American gold medals and has a world record. She starred in the hugely popular documentary The Game Changers and Personal Gold. In 2018 Dotsie launched her non-profit Switch4Good in early 2018 with a television commercial featuring six Olympians from four different countries and proves that cow’s milk is not part of a high-performance diet. As you can imagine there's a lot to talk about. We’ll be talking a fair bit about Switch4Goods recent campaign targeting Starbucks, the life of an Olympian and the realities, how fitness and health evolves for individuals and a bit of politics and legislation
