The founder of the plant-based burger chain jokes that she’s “like a serial pregnant lady,” noting that she’s quite used to being pregnant as she’s had her babies back-to-back over the past three years.
“I’m more used to being pregnant than not pregnant,” she says with a laugh, though she shares that this is her “hardest” pregnancy to date.
“Nobody knew that I was pregnant until I announced it, and I wasn’t really showing in my dress,” she explains. “The gasp of air that people took when I said that I was pregnant — I don’t think anybody expected that. I wanted it to be a moment where everybody found out.”
“He was excited,” says Cole. “He was like, ‘What in the world?’ He’s over the moon.”

“I talk about failure, what failure looks like and what people perceive failure to be, and how sometimes failure is the best thing that could have happened to you because it gives you a different outlook on life and how to navigate life,” she explains.
“I know that lives are going to change with this book,” she adds. “And I’m excited about that.”
