I'm proud of her too. I can relate. As a single Mom of 7, I've been through a lot and barely survived. I'm now in my 70s. My kids are ok, but I neglected myself. God sent me here... her story gives me hope. Forget the pity party and get on with it! Blessings!
Rich: "Walk me through a day in the life of like food, fitness, being a chef" Babbling Babette, proceeds to evade the question about what she eats. Why do you suppose that is?
@@citizenjournalist2533 actually says that she makes her own hamburgers on this show, She also says her mother left her with different people bc she was to prideful to take food stamps, Well when she was 5 years old in 1957 there were NO food stamps programs, All the things she states she went through as a child she still finds it in her to say, she is happy to not have to have dealt with racism. That blew my mind that she said it was a great thing she was only molested and cruelty treated by her own people. People she knew and trusted There was NO welfare when she was 5 She is blaming the system for her mothers choices This woman was amazing alright , she was just an attention seeker Or flat out liar
Babette wore the perfect colour - she is a ray of sunshine 🌞 We need more people to take note, step up and speak out with love, for love. I totally agree that Government should step aside and let us feed ourselves with the best possible foods. There’s so much vacant land available that could be used to feed people who don’t have access to fresh fruit and veg. 💛
But the government is allowing these companies to put these chemicals in our foods. Which cause cancer- which sends us constantly to the doctors- doctors prescribes medication- we go to pharmacy to get medications that Dr. prescribed. Government- food industry-healthcare industry-pharmaceutical industry- viscous cycle- everyone making money off of the people for the lack of knowledge- we have a sick care model in the U. S.- this is why they are opposed universal healthcare- because the above industries will not make the money. I healthcare should be focused on healthcare prevention.
This Woman has personified my life. Sounds exactly like me. 20 careers. Not jobs. Careers. I'm 40. Feeling lost and broken. And praying for direction. ❤️ Taking notes 🎉
Absolutely love Babette! Her energy, positivity, love, forgiveness strength and radiance…just so inspiring. I’m 51 and I want to be like her when I grow up! 😉❤
I’m 67 and I want to have the love, compassion and energy that radiates like her spirit does. She’s amazing and perhaps one day we can meet and have a girl talk.
My 75 year old mom and I met Chef Babette last Saturday at Black Veg Fest. Chef B brought my mom up to the stage to do push-ups with her & my mom has been so incredibly encouraged since then. Chef B is simply an all-around amazing human being.
@@debbiehowell9867 Absolutely, you're right, it sure was a great event. Glad you enjoyed it & I hope to see you at this years BlackVegFest on Saturday 8/17/24. Peace & blessings to you 🙂🙂🙂
March Day #1 My starting weight is 424LBS. Today I ate (2) small meal. First meal I had (1) Roasted Chicken thigh with some Broccoli & Potato salad. Second meal I had a tuna fish sandwich with lettuce & tomato. I did 20 minutes of walking excercise today. I did 10 minutes of meditation in the morning and I think I did about 1 mile today. So my points today was 6
What I love about you Rich (and your wife), is both of your seekers’ nature. You are curious, open, knowledgeable and you do something that many interviewers aren’t able to: LISTEN, with attention and respect. Rich: There’s certain reverence that you naturally bring forth, which makes your guests feel honoured. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to meet Babette! What a fantastic inspiration. Love her💕🙏💕Haydee Windey
One of my most favorite interviews to date! What a fascinating woman!! Strong and resilient ...I could listen to her all day...she makes me feel like I could conquer all that comes my way...❤️❤️❤️❤️
I am also a Seventh-Day Adventist and I am NOT mean! Your story is explosive and inspiring! May the Lord continue to enlarge your territory for His glory!
I’m SDA and I’m so sorry that happened to her. I’m glad she overcame all that negativity. She is such an inspiration. I’m 55 and I’m wanting to make changes to my diet and lifestyle. This is amazing.
I hope all the dads are listening you need to protect your children there’s predators out there even in your family. This is also why us men need to step up and be the leader protector provider God made us to be to our women are left exposed. I really hope the men who saw this will step up and teach it train it and pay it forward to our young upcoming men.
i really appreciate you saying this. cant thank my dad enough for always being around and standing like a solid shied for us and for providing for the whole family while my mum spend time nurturing us. we need more men like you teaching young men what being a real man looks like.
I woke up at 2:19 this morning and found this video. Praise the Lord for Chef Babette. This is so inspirational for me. I started my plant based journey once again at the beginning of this month. I am so inspired. Rich, this is absolutely so powerful!!! I am so inspired. I can't believe I'm still awake watching this, but I can't stop. This interview is about more than food. Mind blowing!!!
Love her!!!! What a lady. I interview people to write their resumes. One of my clients was a product manager years ago for big pharmaceutical - a cholesterol drug. His comments talking about the role was they had so much money to promote it, because it was such a huge seller (Australia). This is where the problem lies, healthy people don't make anyone money. Illness is profitable.
What a beautiful ray of sunshine. I've had a similar life experience. I just recently divorced divorced my 2nd abusive husband. I decided to forgive and not be angry now learning to love myself. No more blaming my mom for leaving me to care for my siblings while she was heroin addicted. Running the streets and leaving us to be babysat by a child molester. I decided to let it go unpacking it and allowing me to forgive myself. I hope 🙏🏾 to blossom into a beautiful woman as Babette
We need more leaders with Chef Babette’s vivaciousness, physical strength and insights in the Plant Based movement . This was a great podcast to watch ~the Yellow fabric, the skin, the teeth, the gorgeous smile WOW ! wake up and be inspired to move and eat plants!!! She embodies an ethos of authentic Love for all life that is glowing and radiant . She honors her journey, holds no shame or negativity. So many gems of authentic wisdom ~ each moment a choice. Thanks for bringing Chef Babette forward on her unstoppable journey. Thank you both for all your doing to improve the wellbeing of People and Planet.
What a force of nature Chef Babette is!! I'm on my second listen and it's sure to not be my last. Thank you so much for this conversation, Rich - it's amazing.
I have watched her before but, have never heard the story. You are an amazing human. I have such a hard time with my choices in my past. So much shame. Nothing close to your experiences. So glad that I heard this. Puts it all into perspective for me. This is such a huge help for me.❤
This amazing interview stopped me in my tracks. I left noodles on the floor. My two-year-old and two dogs running around. But so worth it. What a phenomenal woman of strength. And the honor and respect you've given her I'm impressed. You took your time. She deserves to tell her story from the beginning.
Wow!! I am now enamoured with Chef Babbette. I cannot explain what I am feeling now that I have heard this interview, but it is definitely transformative. Such an amazing woman.
just listening to the start of her story about abuse. I am so proud of her for sharing, becuase it is very common occurrence. My heart goes out to so many men and women who have been abused as children and have not been able to talk about it. you are in my prayers.
Horrible situations make people stronger; the hardest part is to try to change the script. However, it is doable with determination and courage. Her story is so inspiring.
Unfortunately not everyone can or will change the script. So much unhappiness, illness, death, suicide. Chef Babette managed to make it through but consider what we can do to change the odds.
Firstly, I just like ALL OF YOU are absolutely mesmerized by her incredible beauty but especially her eyes,, as I watch I am always watching for a close up of her incredible eyes,, they are RADIANT! Her eyes tell a story of absolute peace within her being. Her life was tough to say the least but the Babette we're seeing today doesn't tell a story of tragedy,, only a life of HOPE and TRIUMPH. She is incredible.
This is an amazing conversation. So touching and real. I'm 33 with a host of issues and I am trying to heal myself through food starting now so I can be healthier as I age. This conversation is golden.
As a holistic nutritionist I'll say first kick out all the chemicals and eat whole foods. Once you have done that see where ur at. If u ever want help or advice lmk. Free :) ur too young 2b unwell.
I was 14 minutes into the video and thought this is one of the best videos I've seen because of the education and truthfulness Chef Babette gave in this video. Thank you Rich for this one. ❤ I am grateful for your channel.
Thank you Rich and Chef Babette. I have started on what you both have done and it's amazing, I'm 50yrs old but feel so much younger and healthier. My relationships are improving too it's very real progress I've only started recently (5 weeks) My healing process was able to progress from trauma and psychosis and anxiety is remarkable. I also do daily cold shower's and get into the sea water fortnitely. I've never seen a 72yr old person looking so vibrant and young, congratulations you inspire me and so do you Rich. Love this interview it's so real and True. 🙏🏆❤️💯
I love Chef Babette so much I was so excited for this episode! What a role model! Thanks Rich for having her on and thanks Babette for taking the time to do the show! Such love, inspiration, and great vibes 💗💗💗
Chef Babette's beauty and strength is off the charts. She inspires me to rise above my pain and live life to the fullest. Thank-you for sharing your story, Babette. 💖💖💖
Thank you both for doing this podcast. I always wanted to hear more about what Chef Babbette had to say about animal rights, food, physical fitness, health and just life ! This was a very inspiring conversation !
What a beautiful woman both inside and out ,, Chef Babette is after inspiring me to change at 49 .. with everything she's been through and come out the other side with amazing positivity it's a story everyone needs to hear ,I wish her nothing only love ❤
"I'm not into hurting." "Sentient beings that want to live who have every right to enjoy their experience." "You are an expression of the greatness that created all of this. Be the best expression you can possibly be." 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
What an awesome lady,inspiration for all of us ,I’m 75 years old went throe stroke ,thinking this is end for me but you gave me hope Thank you so much!!!❤️
❤thank you so much for sharing your story Babette. So so much similar to what I experienced through childhood and adulthood. Suffered a lifelong with an anxiety disorder because of this. On a healing journey now by becoming a vegan and asking God into my life. Everything changed since then. Thanks again Babette and Rich. 😃
Happy you chose to get this story Rich. This is one of the positive and encouraging stories to come out of our community. There are others that don’t get seen/heard, but there are good people out there who have triumphed over unspeakable circumstances. Keep up the good work 🙏🏾
Chef Babette is such a beautiful light! Thanks for sharing your journey. I’m 8 years in on my vegan journey and at 41 I feel that this is just the beginning. This interview inspired me to keep thriving. Much Love 🌱💚
Her energy is so vibrant and refreshing!! This is what a raw life journey looks like. She seem so free and in alignment. Not afraid or ashamed to share her life experiences that has aided & shaped her into who she needed to be. I am 28 years young and I’m now embarking on this journey. I love the yellow 🌞🌼💛
Blessings to you my sister. I can and have identified with all that you’ve shared. I’m 65 and lost 37 years of life. I wish I could just hug you for your strength, positive energy and determination. I too have learned to take responsibility, forgive myself as well as others. After being blessed to change my direction, being a singer most of my life at 63, I became a songwriter and was given 3 singles thus far. I’ve gained the strength to remove myself from all the negative energy in my life. I’m a work in progress, trusting and believing, it does get better. Please continue the journey while sharing what clearly you have been chosen to do (unafraid and strong). I too have been given a journey with sharing all my positive energies and love that I continuously possess without my permission while learning to love myself even more. Thank you so much for your impact.
Woke up at 4am today and this popped up!! Very inspiring 👏🏾. Everyone has a story to tell. I needed to hear this. The Universe surely has a way of making things happen. Just started my healing journey and this is very encouraging. Never give up on yourself.
Honestly...was going to skip this one because I am inundated this week with good listens. SOOOO glad I didn't! Thanks for sharing Chef Babette's INCREDIBLE story and INFECTIOUS energy with us Rich!!!
I'm a recovering addict. I haven't used meth in a a few years. Never going back. Just finally got my own apartment at age 49. I'm not just staying alive anymore. I'm living. I love the people on here. I love Rich Roll. Been binging ALL the episodes these past couple of weekends.
Absolutely beautiful. Five years ago I couldn’t get out of my house plans have changed my life and saved it. Your story is amazing. I live in the chemical waste land. I have a 12 acre organic farm that is surrounded by chemical farming. I watch the cattle trucks every day go down the highway a mile from my farm. Toxic corn, wheat feedlots dairies all surrounding me. Being a farm kid, it was quite a transition as 3 countries told me the same thing. All my neighbors were poisoning me and the world. Every year I plant seeds and do my best to help them grow. And every year it’s a gamble if it will be drifted with toxic chemicals and I have to destroy it all. This is the reality of organic farming. We are running out of water, but China and Canada are building a 2 mile long feedlot. China already owns a co-op that the corn will come from to feed the cattle. So your tax money that pays the farmers to grow the GMO corn is going to China owned companies in the US. Since I speak organic farming on my channel I get chemical and GMO seed commercials While I’m watching this video. We must continue to share the truth about quality food. I do not have a fancy UA-cam channel just the truth about food and what you’re bringing home to your children. now UA-cam put ads on my videos, even though I do not want them. The truth about food should be free not sold. Go grow something worth eating because you’re worth it :-)
Absolutely LOVED this episode!!! thank you so much for bringing this amazing woman into our sphere. She is my role model. People keep telling me, at some point, we just get old and we just need help. I keep pushing back, and love to see her DOING it!!! :)
I started watching the most recent Babette episode in summer 2024, and I became curious to watch the first episode she came on. She is so colorful and wise, thank you for bringing her on, Rich Roll Team! I can't say enough it's a blessing to have the realness of people who are living their "golden years" in such an awe-inspiring way. I can't wait to finish this episode. Teaching me something new, giving me new insight and a re-affirmation & commitment to better health, outlook, and self-care / self-love. Chef Babette breaks through human barriers at a vivacious 72! Great content and story! Wow!
“For my brothers and sisters on the planet, try embracing love starting with yourself💗. And don’t worry about anything other than the fact you are an expression of the greatness that created all of this. Be the best expression you can possibly be.” -Chef Babette
Hello Beautiful Queen, I saw you on The Tamron Hall Show and immediately thought of the beautiful women in my family! You have an energy that is unbreakable, and I am so thankful and appreciative that I came across you and your presence via tv. God bless you❤👏🏾 I would also like to thank you Rich Roll for your homework abilities before having guests on. 🙏🏾 😀 You are "The Man". 😊
I have been in a funk for a while, feeling sorry for myself, complaining about this and that and I'm not usually like this. I have been the one that people come to for uplifting, positive words etc. I literally had tears listening to the beginning of Chef Babette experiences. This video made realize that I have no reason to feel sorry for myself and to be honest, this is a journey that we have ups and downs but we have the power to decide what will accept, achieve, do good, move foward and not stay in the past and most importantly " stay present" and be love. Thank you for this video. Peace and love to all.
My husband & I have transitioned to a whole food plant based low salt/sugar/oil way of eating. At 71 so many of our friends are suffering from the results of a lifetime of our country's Standard American Diet. We are healthy, active and without any chronic illnesses. We met friends at Chef Babette's restaurant "Stuff I Eat" in Inglewood just the other day. As we were trying to explain to our friends how we are getting enough protein, Chef Babette came to our table and sat down for a visit. When you look at her and she tells you she takes no prescription medications....well, nothing we could say was going to be more convincing about eating a healthy vegan diet. Chef Babette is a walking billboard for healthy eating and regular exercise. We all loved her food and loved her visiting with us at her restaurant.❤
Wow!!!!! What an inspiring story!! Confirmation that WE ALL HAVE A STORY. You can never judge or envy because you don’t know what people going/gone through! Thank you so much miss Babette for sharing yours! ❤
What an incredible talk. I am so grateful that this gold came across my path. I resonated with all of this and it was so inspirational. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Chef Babette is a force of nature, seen her in person is incredible, you can't help starring at her beauty and her energy really radiates! One of the most inspiring human beings of our times!
What an inspiration! Such a a lot of trauma in Babette’s early life. It’s wonderful to see her looking so happy and healthy and facing life head on with love and positive actions. Since I’ve been vegan I’ve been really disappointed in being charged extra for plant milk. I live in Sydney but I heard there’s a cafe in Melbourne that charges a “cruelty tax” for any orders requesting cow’s milk! Turning the tables. There should be more like that. Nanette, if you read this, you look fantastic! Thanks for the great video/podcast.
I believe this is the icon my mom was telling me about. Her journey IS very inspiring!🥰 She had to start all over from the bottom when she lost everything. Her story tells me that one's resilience matters no matter our circumstances. Yes. She is rich now, but was she ALWAYS rich and wealthy? Those are the stories leaders, visionaries and entrepreneurs need to hear. Don't look at where people are now alone. Go back to the beginning. Tell the entire story of one's journey to prosperity and success.👍🏾💯
Chef Babette, you are SOOOO beautiful, a beautiful soul with a stunning face, and with such purpose in this world. Firstly, your skin looks 10 times better than those in their 30s or 20s, and thus interview really made me so emotional I had tears. Thank you for bringing this message to the world. ❤ You are a blessing to this world.
What an amazing woman! I'm so proud of her overcoming the obstacles in her life. I can't believe that she's 72! She looks 40 and her skin is radiant. You go, Chef Babette!
What a blessing to hear dear Chef Babette’s story. My respect level for her just went over the top. What an amazing woman! Her smile is contagious. She is truly more than an overcomer....
“I smoked so much cornbread”and I don’t even weigh myself I just just make sure I keep that space between my thighs”…classic quotes! Love you Mrs Babette!❤
You know I dislike the noise that UA-cam, and podcasts, create when promoting the guests they have. It seems like clickbait. But this episode was generous, and incredibly needed. Thank you.
This beautiful woman who I never heard of but when she shared touched me sooooo much for I have my own past I want to run from but she made me realize it’s never too late for change & embracing the past & growing into a better person with my truth now today……..🙏🏼 bless her ❤
I'm proud of her too. I can relate. As a single Mom of 7, I've been through a lot and barely survived. I'm now in my 70s. My kids are ok, but I neglected myself. God sent me here... her story gives me hope. Forget the pity party and get on with it! Blessings!
Very inspirational this is a real survival jornal Thank you.
Yes very inspiring…this is everything put together/health eating/ exercise/ positivity/ working at 70 …❤❤❤❤
Awwwe , you be positive....do what you love! Set some goals and go for it! Be blessed...#strongmomma #blessings2you 🥰
P
You are such a breath of fresh air and god sent. I love your story!
She just radiates LOVE what a beautiful being. We need more Babettes in this world.
Thank you so much!
My reminder to keep going! She is truly beautiful 😍😍😍
Hell yeah!
👍
Why would you tell a white man your history? You look stupid..
Chef Babette is such an inspiration, stylish, graceful, compassionate and driven, what an icon.
She is amazing,hope to see you all on Vegan Cornhub!
Rich: "Walk me through a day in the life of like food, fitness, being a chef"

There was NO welfare when she was 5
She is blaming the system for her mothers choices

*"she was just an attention seeker Or flat out liar"*
Methinks both, just like the "Keto Queen", Maria Emmerich.

Better start now
You CAN be !

You can do it!

LOVE HER. If you’re near LA get yourself over to Stuff I Eat in Inglewood - the food is great and she deserves ALL the support ❤️
I mean if Babette isn't the epitome of why we should be vegan Idk what is. Incredible.

This is one of the realest, transparent and transformational interview I have ever seen and I’m thankful for it
No ?but *
Ditto❤❤❤
Yes she's beautiful, strong willed and so inspirational ...💕🙏🏽
I cannot believe she is 72 years old. Truly amazinand inspirational.
One of my most favorite interviews to date! What a fascinating woman!! Strong and resilient ...I could listen to her all day...she makes me feel like I could conquer all that comes my way...❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yes in deed she's more powerful and impactful than she realizes 💕💕
I’m a Seventh-Day Adventist…..and I am SO SORRY for what happened to you as a child! ((((💔)))
And can I just say, you inspire me!!
I’m a Seventh Day Adventist too. I feel bad that she encountered an SDA like that.
Thank you for sharing your story, I want you to you to know you are an amazing human being inside and out, I can tell you have inspired me
I am also a Seventh-Day Adventist and I am NOT mean! Your story is explosive and inspiring! May the Lord continue to enlarge your territory for His glory!
I know I am SDA too and I was shocked too a SDA could be so cruel.
I’m SDA and I’m so sorry that happened to her. I’m glad she overcame all that negativity. She is such an inspiration. I’m 55 and I’m wanting to make changes to my diet and lifestyle. This is amazing.
I hope all the dads are listening you need to protect your children there’s predators out there even in your family. This is also why us men need to step up and be the leader protector provider God made us to be to our women are left exposed. I really hope the men who saw this will step up and teach it train it and pay it forward to our young upcoming men.
Thank you this is it
I guess a lot of fathers are the predators for many girls
You’ve said it for everyone. I pray that men receive a revelation from God of how vital fatherhood is.
i really appreciate you saying this. cant thank my dad enough for always being around and standing like a solid shied for us and for providing for the whole family while my mum spend time nurturing us. we need more men like you teaching young men what being a real man looks like.

Thanks. Inspirational.
I woke up at 3:15 and this was in my cue 😁💕
She literally glows 🌞 what a beautiful human and interview
Love her!!!! What a lady. I interview people to write their resumes. One of my clients was a product manager years ago for big pharmaceutical - a cholesterol drug. His comments talking about the role was they had so much money to promote it, because it was such a huge seller (Australia). This is where the problem lies, healthy people don't make anyone money.

SMH. Life upside down.
Cause its too many people and animals on the world.
Hi- Do you still offer resume writing services via interviews?
The world is full of amazing people and Rich seems to find them. I am so grateful for these podcasts.
What a beautiful ray of sunshine. I've had a similar life experience. I just recently divorced divorced my
2nd abusive husband. I decided to forgive and not be angry now learning to love myself. No more blaming my mom for leaving me to care for my siblings while she was heroin addicted. Running the streets and leaving us to be babysat by a child molester. I decided to let it go unpacking it and allowing me to forgive myself. I hope 🙏🏾 to blossom into a beautiful woman as Babette
Your already a beautiful woman. Girl Power!
I’m glad you’re able to move forward and realize your mom did the best she could at the time. Forgive her and yourself. Heal and move forward.
❤❤❤❤🙏🏽

I would love to read a book about her life story, fitness & food journey, what she eats daily...She is amazing!
Thank you for bringing Babette on your podcast. She gave me hope at 56.
Same at 49! I’m motivated to make a significant change today and be as healthy and vibrant as her at 72!
She worked on getting her power back one thought at the time one decision at the time one action at the time.❤
This amazing interview stopped me in my tracks. I left noodles on the floor. My two-year-old and two dogs running around. But so worth it. What a phenomenal woman of strength. And the honor and respect you've given her I'm impressed. You took your time. She deserves to tell her story from the beginning.
Wow!! I am now enamoured with Chef Babbette. I cannot explain what I am feeling now that I have heard this interview, but it is definitely transformative. Such an amazing woman.
This women is amazing! More people should be like her❤
I absolutely love Babette Davis. Her dessert cookbook is fabulous. She is fabulous! Absolutely love her!
What a beautiful woman - inside and out! When I first saw her here for the first time I truly thought she was maybe in her 40s! Stunning!
just listening to the start of her story about abuse. I am so proud of her for sharing, becuase it is very common occurrence. My heart goes out to so many men and women who have been abused as children and have not been able to talk about it. you are in my prayers.
Horrible situations make people stronger; the hardest part is to try to change the script. However, it is doable with determination and courage. Her story is so inspiring.
Unfortunately not everyone can or will change the script. So much unhappiness, illness, death, suicide. Chef Babette managed to make it through but consider what we can do to change the odds.
I stand up to applaud for her courage,resilience, and contagious motivation to move forward!
So do I.
Firstly, I just like ALL OF YOU are absolutely mesmerized by her incredible beauty but especially her eyes,, as I watch I am always watching for a close up of her incredible eyes,, they are RADIANT! Her eyes tell a story of absolute peace within her being. Her life was tough to say the least but the Babette we're seeing today doesn't tell a story of tragedy,, only a life of HOPE and TRIUMPH. She is incredible.
This is an amazing conversation. So touching and real. I'm 33 with a host of issues and I am trying to heal myself through food starting now so I can be healthier as I age. This conversation is golden.
Good luck Anna,
I’m with you.🎉
As a holistic nutritionist I'll say first kick out all the chemicals and eat whole foods. Once you have done that see where ur at. If u ever want help or advice lmk. Free :) ur too young 2b unwell.
I was 14 minutes into the video and thought this is one of the best videos I've seen because of the education and truthfulness Chef Babette gave in this video. Thank you Rich for this one. ❤ I am grateful for your channel.
I love this woman .God bless her.
Thank you Rich and Chef Babette. I have started on what you both have done and it's amazing, I'm 50yrs old but feel so much younger and healthier. My relationships are improving too it's very real progress I've only started recently (5 weeks) My healing process was able to progress from trauma and psychosis and anxiety is remarkable. I also do daily cold shower's and get into the sea water fortnitely. I've never seen a 72yr old person looking so vibrant and young, congratulations you inspire me and so do you Rich. Love this interview it's so real and True. 🙏🏆❤️💯
I love this beautiful mango colour! It suits her so well!
Incredible guest. Gorgeous, resilient, smart, compassionate, and funny. One day I’ll make it to her restaurant.
I like the word you used 'resilient'.
Can't seem to wipe the broad smile off my face watching this! (Not that I'd want to!) Such beautiful messages throughout!!!
I love Chef Babette so much I was so excited for this episode! What a role model! Thanks Rich for having her on and thanks Babette for taking the time to do the show! Such love, inspiration, and great vibes 💗💗💗

What an awesome lady,inspiration for all of us ,I’m 75 years old went throe stroke ,thinking this is end for me but you gave me hope Thank you so much!!!❤️
❤thank you so much for sharing your story Babette. So so much similar to what I experienced through childhood and adulthood. Suffered a lifelong with an anxiety disorder because of this. On a healing journey now by becoming a vegan and asking God into my life. Everything changed since then. Thanks again Babette and Rich. 😃
This lady speaks the truth of spiritual reality. ♥
Wow! She is Spectacular and Stunning! Thank you!😀🌺
Happy you chose to get this story Rich. This is one of the positive and encouraging stories to come out of our community. There are others that don’t get seen/heard, but there are good people out there who have triumphed over unspeakable circumstances. Keep up the good work 🙏🏾
Chef Babette is such a beautiful light! Thanks for sharing your journey. I’m 8 years in on my vegan journey and at 41 I feel that this is just the beginning. This interview inspired me to keep thriving. Much Love 🌱💚
I love listening to the stories of older women. The wisdom is priceless
This woman is beautiful and incredibly inspirational. Thank you Rich for having her on your show!
It is so powerful to be in the presence of such authenticity
Her energy is so vibrant and refreshing!! This is what a raw life journey looks like. She seem so free and in alignment. Not afraid or ashamed to share her life experiences that has aided & shaped her into who she needed to be. I am 28 years young and I’m now embarking on this journey. I love the yellow 🌞🌼💛
I mean,Rich you and your podcast are like a spring of freshness-Truly a different energy-positivity-tranquility in a way of delivery..thank you
Blessings to you my sister.
I can and have identified with all that you’ve shared. I’m 65 and lost 37 years of life. I wish I could just hug you for your strength, positive energy and determination. I too have learned to take responsibility, forgive myself as well as others. After being blessed to change my direction, being a singer most of my life at 63, I became a songwriter and was given 3 singles thus far. I’ve gained the strength to remove myself from all the negative energy in my life. I’m a work in progress, trusting and believing, it does get better.
Please continue the journey while sharing what clearly you have been chosen to do (unafraid and strong). I too have been given a journey with sharing all my positive energies and love that I continuously possess without my permission while learning to love myself even more.
Thank you so much
for your impact.
Woke up at 4am today and this popped up!!
Very inspiring 👏🏾. Everyone has a story to tell. I needed to hear this. The Universe surely has a way of making things happen. Just started my healing journey and this is very encouraging. Never give up on yourself.
What an inspirational woman!!! She literally sparkles!
VERY POWERFUL EPISODE!!! So much in one hour and 43 minutes. This woman is everything to me. Love you Chef Babette 💗💗💗💗💗
Honestly...was going to skip this one because I am inundated this week with good listens. SOOOO glad I didn't! Thanks for sharing Chef Babette's INCREDIBLE story and INFECTIOUS energy with us Rich!!!
I'm a recovering addict. I haven't used meth in a a few years. Never going back. Just finally got my own apartment at age 49. I'm not just staying alive anymore. I'm living. I love the people on here. I love Rich Roll. Been binging ALL the episodes these past couple of weekends.
Absolutely beautiful. Five years ago I couldn’t get out of my house plans have changed my life and saved it. Your story is amazing. I live in the chemical waste land. I have a 12 acre organic farm that is surrounded by chemical farming. I watch the cattle trucks every day go down the highway a mile from my farm. Toxic corn, wheat feedlots dairies all surrounding me. Being a farm kid, it was quite a transition as 3 countries told me the same thing. All my neighbors were poisoning me and the world. Every year I plant seeds and do my best to help them grow. And every year it’s a gamble if it will be drifted with toxic chemicals and I have to destroy it all. This is the reality of organic farming. We are running out of water, but China and Canada are building a 2 mile long feedlot. China already owns a co-op that the corn will come from to feed the cattle. So your tax money that pays the farmers to grow the GMO corn is going to China owned companies in the US. Since I speak organic farming on my channel I get chemical and GMO seed commercials While I’m watching this video. We must continue to share the truth about quality food. I do not have a fancy UA-cam channel just the truth about food and what you’re bringing home to your children. now UA-cam put ads on my videos, even though I do not want them. The truth about food should be free not sold. Go grow something worth eating because you’re worth it :-)
Absolutely LOVED this episode!!! thank you so much for bringing this amazing woman into our sphere. She is my role model. People keep telling me, at some point, we just get old and we just need help. I keep pushing back, and love to see her DOING it!!! :)
I'm over 60 and I want to be as healthy and as young looking as she is when I grow up.
I w want to transition too but I'm in Jamaica it's a little difficult I leave it in the hands of jesus he knows everything God bless you
I started watching the most recent Babette episode in summer 2024, and I became curious to watch the first episode she came on. She is so colorful and wise, thank you for bringing her on, Rich Roll Team! I can't say enough it's a blessing to have the realness of people who are living their "golden years" in such an awe-inspiring way. I can't wait to finish this episode. Teaching me something new, giving me new insight and a re-affirmation & commitment to better health, outlook, and self-care / self-love. Chef Babette breaks through human barriers at a vivacious 72! Great content and story! Wow!
“For my brothers and sisters on the planet, try embracing love starting with yourself💗. And don’t worry about anything other than the fact you are an expression of the greatness that created all of this. Be the best expression you can possibly be.” -Chef Babette
Hello Beautiful Queen, I saw you on The Tamron Hall Show and immediately thought of the beautiful women in my family! You have an energy that is unbreakable, and I am so thankful and appreciative that I came across you and your presence via tv. God bless you❤👏🏾 I would also like to thank you Rich Roll for your homework abilities before having guests on. 🙏🏾 😀 You are "The Man". 😊
I have been in a funk for a while, feeling sorry for myself, complaining about this and that and I'm not usually like this. I have been the one that people come to for uplifting, positive words etc. I literally had tears listening to the beginning of Chef Babette experiences. This video made realize that I have no reason to feel sorry for myself and to be honest, this is a journey that we have ups and downs but we have the power to decide what will accept, achieve, do good, move foward and not stay in the past and most importantly " stay present" and be love. Thank you for this video. Peace and love to all.
I been down too
Be the best expression you can possibly be.......love that!!
23 minutes in: Rich, with age that will change. She has age on her side. We mellow, relax, and get more present the older we get.
She is a Beautiful sister for sure. You just take life as it comes. And God brought you through. ❤
Im in tears listening to her. What an amazing woman. Thank you Chef Babette!
My husband & I have transitioned to a whole food plant based low salt/sugar/oil way of eating. At 71 so many of our friends are suffering from the results of a lifetime of our country's Standard American Diet. We are healthy, active and without any chronic illnesses. We met friends at Chef Babette's restaurant "Stuff I Eat" in Inglewood just the other day. As we were trying to explain to our friends how we are getting enough protein, Chef Babette came to our table and sat down for a visit. When you look at her and she tells you she takes no prescription medications....well, nothing we could say was going to be more convincing about eating a healthy vegan diet. Chef Babette is a walking billboard for healthy eating and regular exercise. We all loved her food and loved her visiting with us at her restaurant.❤
Wow!!!!! What an inspiring story!! Confirmation that WE ALL HAVE A STORY. You can never judge or envy because you don’t know what people going/gone through!
Thank you so much miss Babette for sharing yours! ❤
I always loved Babette,
she is authentic, 🌹🥰❤️
Continue to love & Soar🙏🏼☮️💕
What an incredible talk. I am so grateful that this gold came across my path. I resonated with all of this and it was so inspirational. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Chef Babette is a force of nature, seen her in person is incredible, you can't help starring at her beauty and her energy really radiates! One of the most inspiring human beings of our times!
What an inspiration! Such a a lot of trauma in Babette’s early life. It’s wonderful to see her looking so happy and healthy and facing life head on with love and positive actions.
Since I’ve been vegan I’ve been really disappointed in being charged extra for plant milk. I live in Sydney but I heard there’s a cafe in Melbourne that charges a “cruelty tax” for any orders requesting cow’s milk! Turning the tables. There should be more like that.
Nanette, if you read this, you look fantastic!
Thanks for the great video/podcast.
Liked 'cruelty tax'
A "cruelty tax"?! Heck yes, what a great idea!
I believe this is the icon my mom was telling me about. Her journey IS very inspiring!🥰 She had to start all over from the bottom when she lost everything. Her story tells me that one's resilience matters no matter our circumstances. Yes. She is rich now, but was she ALWAYS rich and wealthy? Those are the stories leaders, visionaries and entrepreneurs need to hear. Don't look at where people are now alone. Go back to the beginning. Tell the entire story of one's journey to prosperity and success.👍🏾💯
What a beautiful person inside and out! Thank you for this conversation ❤️. Well done!
I love her! ❤ I wanna be like her when I grow up. So inspirational!
32 minutes in and it's already life changing. What a woman. I love everything about this conversation so far ❤
Chef Babette, you are SOOOO beautiful, a beautiful soul with a stunning face, and with such purpose in this world. Firstly, your skin looks 10 times better than those in their 30s or 20s, and thus interview really made me so emotional I had tears. Thank you for bringing this message to the world. ❤ You are a blessing to this world.
What an amazing woman! I'm so proud of her overcoming the obstacles in her life. I can't believe that she's 72! She looks 40 and her skin is radiant. You go, Chef Babette!
Jesus. I had no idea this was her story. Wow. Look at what God has done in her life ❤️🙏🏾
What a blessing to hear dear Chef Babette’s story. My respect level for her just went over the top. What an amazing woman!
Her smile is contagious. She is truly more than an overcomer....
Rich, thank you! Another amazing, inspiring human being who knows their purpose. No excuses!! She's a powerful force!
Thank you for your inspiration, I’m going to slowly start eating vegan. I want to get healthy. Chef Babette you are beautiful.
“I smoked so much cornbread”and I don’t even weigh myself I just just make sure I keep that space between my thighs”…classic quotes! Love you Mrs Babette!❤
You know I dislike the noise that UA-cam, and podcasts, create when promoting the guests they have. It seems like clickbait. But this episode was generous, and incredibly needed. Thank you.
This beautiful woman who I never heard of but when she shared touched me sooooo much for I have my own past I want to run from but she made me realize it’s never too late for change & embracing the past & growing into a better person with my truth now today……..🙏🏼 bless her ❤
She’s gorgeous! What an inspiration!
