This week, we invited on PBNM Board Member Karen Bender to discuss her experiences sharing her plant-based diet with her family. Karen's interest in nutrition, food, and health began early in her career as an early childhood educator/director and continued later as a speech-language pathologist for special needs children. Three years ago, she started attending Plant Based Nutrition Movement's (PBNM) monthly meetings. The information and support from those meetings were so motivating and valuable, and now she hopes to pass them on to others. Karen is currently one of the PBNM Cooking Coaches and has led some small cooking classes. She also completed the e-Cornell Plant-Based Nutrition Certificate to add additional educational components to future classes and presentations.
