My guest is Kiki Nelson, but you may know her best as @PlantifulKiki. Her book, Plantifully Lean is turning heads, but what turned my attention to Kiki was her transparent health and weight loss journey.
As a young adult, Kiki struggled with her weight and suffered all of the ill consequences as a result - high blood pressure, pre-diabetes, hormonal imbalances, lack of energy - and none of this was optimal for a young Mom of two active children.
Two things really moved the needle for Kiki - and they are the cornerstone of the work she does today. She found simple whole food, plant-based nutrition and she did (and still does) a lot of work around self-compassion, forgiveness, and self-love.
The results? In a little over a year, she lost 70 pounds and reversed those lifestyle diseases.
Today, you can find her on her social media channels dishing up plenty of recipes and inspiration, and you can find her book Plantifully Lean on bookshelves now.

KIki is one of the GOATS online next to High Carb Hannah, Broccoli Mum, and Chelsea Mae. The best ladies ever
Kiki is so inspiring, not in a loud brashy way but in her own lower key way. Love her! Watch all her videos ❤
Great talk this morning! I’ve been following Kiki for 3 years. She has helped me with my 50 lbs weight loss journey. Thank you Kiki!!💕
Wow! Congratulations! What worked for you?
I loved Kiki before this interview, but even more now!!! She's so real and inspiring!! Even for this 60+ woman...❤❤❤❤
Not sure if you're talking about her age she's actually 40 :)
@chriseraphim I was talking about me lol 😆
@lindalatham412 ohh fair enough I see!
Ya know what I love about KiKi? She's real. No fake stuff. When she films a video she films it all. Spills, the dog, the kids, her mistakes, etc...everything! I love that. The reason she is so popular is because she is so real. I always wait for her videos of the Homestead. She is just a Rock Star in my book.
Thank you for having Plantiful Kiki on your podcast. A lot of us are grateful to have Kiki here in Colorado.
I am a beginner VEGAN and KiKi has inspired me to continue my journey , her book is amazing I have tried the dressings love them .
Thanks so much for featuring Kiki! She is the real deal and such an inspiration! I love her philosophy and approach to plant based living, she is a beautiful soul for sure!
I’ve been following Kiki for years. Love her and and all her recipes. Highly recommend the book.
2 of my favorite influencers together! What a great way to wake up, listen to this and start my day with a smile! Thank you from Englewood, Colorado.
I agree, watched while eating bkfst from Englewood also. Love Colorado!
Kiki seems more relaxed here. Normally she is a bit shy on podcasts. She was happy and personable like on her channel here. That says a lot about the host.
Kiki is real and humble and obviously grateful to be able share her journey to the power of WFPB way of eating.
I’m buying her book. I hope she has some Mexican influenced WFPB recipes. If not then the next book!
I think maybe another reason she’s more content is every day she gets to Forest Bath in her mountain home. Keep up the great work Kiki.
Thanks Rip for inviting Kiki and the great questions and highlighting some of her recipes.
*bathe (verb form of bath, which is a noun)
Bananas are a delightful addition to sweet potatoes! Add a little hummus (yes hummus on bananas!) and balsamic glaze to it with some greens - perfection!
That sounds delicious 😋
How wonderful to hear Kiki on your program Rip. Kiki is a food and lifestyle inspiration and she's constantly working on problems which are ongoing too. She really is an inspiration with a wonderful family.
Great interview! Been following Kiki since the beginning. Lost 55 lbs and reversed multiple health issues. Her ranch dressing is amazing. She’s so real and love her recipes.
Don’t give away all her recipes!!! Lets buy her book, even the digital version.
One of the best interviews, ever! I have her book, 1st edition & seriously, if you haven’t tried HER cheese sauce, get makin’ it!! And, I substitute Hemp Hearts for cashews & it’s still amazing!
I'm absolutely a savoury person too. Your Mum's savoury steel cut oats was a game changer for me! It's my favourite breakfast and how I get my greens in the morning. It's delicious!
Kiki’s blender waffles are my favorite way to eat oatmeal!
Kiki is awesome! I love her cheese sauce and her being so real with our struggles. Love Rip and his whole family! Both of you are so blessed and thank you for blessing us!
Loved this great interview! I have Kiki’s book and it was fun going through some of the recipes ‘together’ with you. I was so impressed reseed when she said she photographed all the food. What a gift you have Kiki! I found the cookbook in Walmart, I was so surprised!! Two of my favorite and inspiring people…Rip and Kiki!! ❤❤
Big fan of Kiki!!!! Love her! 💕
I love Plantiful Kiki!!! Down to earth,beautiful,inspiring!! Thanks!!
Enjoyed this interview..That's why I like Kiki,she keeps it easy and simple👍😍
Love how comfortable Kiki has gotten on interviews!!!
An excellent presentation, Rip! I have loved KiKi for years and this was a real treat. ❤
That Thai coconut curry in the book is bomb! We love it!
I love Kiki! She is so inspiring. Thanks for this great interview.
One of many wonderful things about Kiki's book:
There are no portion sizes
Eat as much as you want, anytime you want!
LOVE you kiki!
Please meet Mollie Katzan quick!
You are made for each other!
I love Kiki. Her meals are & look amazing. If one really wants to loose weight with WFPB & the starch, that is amazing. I love rice & other starches she prepares. She makes these meals delicious. I love her ranch, low fat is super great. I cannot wait to try the cheese sauce. Grest work Kiki.Blessings.
Kiki’s the best! Following her for years! ❤😊
After the interview I ordered the book. Thank you! What a fun guest she was!
Kiki is the best. Love to see her channel grow 💜
Love Kiki and her inspirational videos . I have both her 2 books and absolutely love her recipes and cheese sauce is my favorite!!
Finally! it's great to see Kiki on some of these more 'commercial' plant based podcasts. She's a 'savory' person as am I... and she keeps it simple and real. Well done Rip.
Thank you Rip and Kiki. Amazing interview! 🙏🏽❤️
Great video. Enjoyed her story & her recipes. 😊 ❤
Enjoyed this conversation! Love Kiki!!
Kiki does it from her soul......Rip you are the best interviewer!
Beautiful interview with two beautiful people. So very inspiring! These are two of my heroes in the Plant Strong movement ❤
I made your ranch this morning! Haha! I love it and make it often. Lovely to see you get the recognition for your hard work. You are so inspiring.
Love Kiki SO MUCH ! Rip your the best ,have all your books And your Mom and sister’s new book and watch them All the Time ! I make Savory Oats from your Mom ALL the time ! I also eat Rip’s Big Bowl if t
I’m not eating oats !Thank You for a great podcast 👏👍😍
Wow!! Kiki is so creative with her delicious simple recipes, I have to get her book, thank you Rip for flipping through some of them-gives us a great idea of these yummy dishes.
Kudos to your photography Kiki and to your book!
Rip I loooove your mom’s savory steel cut oats with shitakis , it’s my go to most mornings now 😋😋😋
Rip - Kiki puts the Hungarian Mushroom soup over potatoes and the texture issue goes away! I had the same issue and this is now one of my favorite recipes and I make it almost every week!
Love Kiki and her cookbook! So many wonderful recipes!
I love that her recipes are simple & it’s amazing that she did the photos herself, they look very professional!
Am ao happy to see Kiki’s success. I remember laughing and relating hard when she made potato chips in the microwave and didn’t care about bits of stuck kitchen role:)
I'm a mountains person. I have friends who MUST have the ocean, but not me. I lived in Los Angeles for over 2 decades, and rarely went to the beach. "The mountains are calling...and I must go..." It's real. I don't live in magical Taos, NM but Grandma Taos Mountain CALLS people to her. She's a living being, and famous Taos lover, Dennis Hopper, talked about it.
I started dieting at age 11...and definitely didn't need to. I get that. Eating more veggies is definitely a game changer.
I'm THIN and vegan and struggling to keep my darn blood sugar down. It was 173 this a.m. after a no fat but high carbs and protein (pea protein) breakfast. :-(
Love, love, love!!❤
Kiki is great. Love love her channel and her recipes.
Love ❤Kiki! She has helped me to want to eat plant 🌱 based!
How very touching and inspiring to hear Kiki tell about how she changed her inner view of herself to a positive one.
I’ve been watching Kiki on RUclips for two years now! Love her and all her recipes, she a beautiful soul! ❤
This was the best interview!! Kudos to you both!
Kiki you're amazing and inspirational, I watch you on RUclips. Thank you, thank you for what you do . ❤
So nice to see Kiki on your show! She's been such an inspiration for me since 2020!
Kiki is one of my favorites. We are a lot alike and I can relate to her. Her recipes are delicious and easy to make.
I found Kiki on RUclips 4 months after she started her channel. She has something about her, she's so likeable. There isn't a recipe of hers that I have tried that I didn't like. I have tried a few black bean brownies over the years but only Kiki's taste good.😂
If one doesn't like the texture of fresh mushrooms, then try dried rehydrated mushrooms.
I have her cookbook.. She's the real deal..Congratulations kiki..❤😊
Great interview!!! Kiki is a great person to learn how to eat mplant based. Thank you for having her on your show!!
I have been following Kiki since she started on RUclips. She was one of the first people I found that was straightforward, made it sound easy. And her recipes were so much more doable than a lot of the recipes that you see when you're beginning a plant-based diet. I was so relieved to find her after 2 years of being plant-based, but feeling like all the recipes were overwhelming. Thank you Kiki for being brave enough to share your journey!
Just love Kiki and her channel. Thanks for having her. Enjoyed this chat so much.
This is awesome, two great people I've learned so much from, I have followed you both for years!!! Thank you!
Wonderful interview! I have tried many of Kiki's recipes in the past and they all are great! Looking forward to using her book!
Kiki has helped me so much to lose 25 lbs and keep it off. Self love is key:)
Kiki is amazing! Love love love her book!!
I love this interview. Can’t wait to try some of the recipes!❤🌱
I appreciate and admire Kiki so much. She is one of my very favorite plant based mentors and role models. A beautiful human inside and out ♥
LOVE KIKI SO MUCH 💚
Love watching Kiki’s channel-a bread podcast Rip!
I love juicing organic green vegetables on an empty stomach first thing in the morning. Straight celery juice is best for me, but my favorite juice(in the juicer,not the blender) cucumber🥒romaine 🥬,cilantro,red bell pepper🌶️lemon 🍋🌽and a pinch of cayenne.😋
Great interview Rip!❤
LOVE her channel and her new cookbook!
She is so amazing.
Rip. You and Kiki both are so down to earth and honest. I love when you guys mention things you don’t like (because some of those I don’t like either). I don’t want to be a clone of every plant based person. There is a lot of room to add ingredients that suit you to make it fit your tastes. You both also have very simple recipes that anybody can do. Thanks to you both for sharing your wisdom and experience!
Loved this !!
Love my Scanpans!!!!
Love her recipes!!
Inspiring interview. I pre-ordered her book and couldn't wait until it was finally release to receive it.
Great talk, thank you both ❤
This is such a great interview…..thanks Rip for bringing on Kiki!
Love Kiki and Rip.
Awesome! ❤
great book your amazing.
Love Kiki. I follow her. ❤
riced califlower and shredded zuchinni in oatmeal is delicious! :)
Way to go Kiki!!
Thanks
I have both of her books
Good stuff.
I picked up my book at Walmart.
White rice, white flour products make mucus & give me sinus infections, along with plant milks!😢
In the carbohydrate list Kiki didn't mention any fruit. I wonder why that is?
Don't hate on white rice Rip!
Your first name is Rest In Peace
Who can eat a whole pound of nuts, or avacado?
Not me, just a half avocado or handful of nuts puts weight on me!
It's not about that. It's just showing how calorie dense it is. A pound of non starchy vegetables is only about 100 calories. Vs a pound of oil at 4,000. 1 tablespoon of oil is 120 calories. So you can have a nice salad for just a couple hundred calories but put a little oil on it and you just doubled or even tripled the calories of the meal. There's a lecture by a guy named Jeff Novick about calorie density. He explains it really well. Kiki actually mentioned in it this interview
@@mattzilla331exactly!
@@mattzilla331 Yes. I know. Still. Who can eat that much high fat food?
@Laura Stephenson the point is a little bit of high fat food is a lot of calories. While a lot of a low calorie food is still only a little calories. Don't get hung up on the unit of measurement being a pound. They are not saying eat a pound of this or a pound of that. It's just to compare the calorie density of foods.
Hi from Croatia to Kiki and Rip 👋! Following you both on Instagram and love your work...
