Healing Beyond the Plate with Pete Evans

In this powerful conversation, Sebastian Mierau reconnects with Pete Evans, chef-turned-wellness advocate, to trace his winding path from the kitchen to deeper explorations of health, identity, and purpose.

What emerges is not a rigid system, but an invitation: to live more attentively, courageously, and in alignment with one’s deeper nature.
