How a Blog Turned Into a Cookbook (and Then Some!) with Vasudha Viswanath

What does it take to transform a personal health journey into a bestselling cookbook?

Here to walk us down that path is Vasudha Viswanath, cookbook author and founder of the community-centered initiative "We Ate Well." After a career on Wall Street and a life-changing Prediabetes diagnosis, Vasudha shifted gears dramatically. She embraced her roots in vegetarian cooking but with a fresh, low-carb twist that flew in the face of traditional plant-based diets heavy in processed options.

In this episode, we dive into her challenges and wins in creating her cookbook, "The Vegetarian Reset," navigating the world of publishing, and building a thriving community around healthy eating. From the deep dives into recipe development and personal trials to marketing strategies and career pivots, this episode is packed with insights and inspiration for anyone looking to turn their passion into a tangible product.
