Vedge Your Best, Vegan Ideas for Everyone At Any Age

248: Defying Gravity - The Invisible Forces Shaping Your Vegan Practice


Listen Later

What if the biggest thing holding you back… isn’t resistance or lack of willpower, but gravity?


In this episode, Michele returns from adventures in Granada, Seville, Paris, Strasbourg, and Dublin with fresh eyes on the habits, routines, and unconscious choices that shape our lives. From mealtimes and walking paths to how we relate to food, family, and culture—there’s an invisible architecture guiding your day-to-day life.

“We shape our buildings; thereafter, they shape us.” - Winston Churchill

Our choices—especially the repeated ones—build a kind of gravitational pull that either keeps us grounded… or keeps us stuck.

Whether you’re looking to start, re-start, or re-energize your plant-based practice, this episode is your invitation to notice what’s shaping you—and how to gently, intentionally shift your orbit.
What You'll Learn:

  • Why your life may be “pulling” you away from the change you want

  • How both choices and non-choices carry weight

  • What habits and cultural norms you’ve inherited—and how to evaluate them with love

  • One powerful journal exercise to start changing your gravity today

Journal Prompts from This Episode:

  1. What choices have I made in the last 10 years that shaped who I am today?

  2. What decisions am I not making that are still pulling me away from the future I want?

  3. What choices did I inherit from family, friends, or culture that I absolutely love?

  4. Which inherited choices might be keeping me a little stuck?

  5. What is one small, intentional, plant-based choice I can make today to shift my orbit?


If you’ve been feeling pulled off-course, this episode will help you recognize your own inner gravity—and start defying it, one intentional decision at a time.
