The Power of Sprouts: Doug Evans’ Path to Health & Vitality

In this week’s episode of the Radiant Living Podcast, we’re sitting down with Doug Evans, a health advocate, entrepreneur, and true pioneer in wellness. Doug co-founded Organic Avenue, NYC’s original juice bar chain, and authored the national bestseller The Sprout Book. His journey from living in the desert, fueled solely by homegrown sprouts, to becoming a leading advocate for their nutritional power is nothing short of inspiring.

Doug shares his personal story and how his sprouting journey began, shedding light on the incredible benefits of sprouts and why they deserve a place in our diets. From fitness tips (he did 100,000 push-ups in a year!) to his resilience through entrepreneurial challenges with Juicero, Doug offers invaluable insights into living a vibrant, health-conscious life—one that’s rooted in balance, self-awareness, and happiness.

• Doug’s remarkable fitness at 58 and how sprouts contribute to his vitality and overall sense of well-being.
• His experience with Juicero, how failure shaped his growth, and the mindset shifts that help him live a happy and fulfilling life.
• Practical advice for integrating sprouts into your daily life—even if you’re just starting out—and how this simple change can make a big impact on your overall happiness.
• How sprouting can be an affordable, simple, and sustainable way to improve health, especially during times of rising inflation, and why nourishing your body with natural foods leads to greater emotional and mental wellness.

Doug also shares his philosophy on living a joyful life, stressing the importance of resilience, purpose, and connection with nature in cultivating true happiness. If you’re looking for ways to boost your health and live more joyfully, this episode is packed with wisdom.
