Heisman Trophy Winner and NBA star Charlie Ward opens up about his unexpected health scare—a mini-stroke in his late 40s—and how it led him to adopt a plant-based lifestyle. Despite a lifetime of elite athleticism, Charlie discovered that diet was the leading contributor to his health issues. Guided by a plant-based cardiologist and supported by his wife Tonja, Charlie transitioned to a plant-based diet and saw dramatic health improvements. He now champions healthy living, plant-based eating, and youth empowerment through coaching, public speaking, and the Charlie Ward Family Foundation. With wisdom, grounded in faith and experience, Charlie encourages setting personal boundaries, building supportive communities, and making proactive choices for lasting wellness. This fascinating interview was conducted by Michele Fasnacht of Plant The Change. To learn more, visit: https://thecharlieward.com/ and https://PlantTheChange.com
