Part 1: Join Holly and Molly as they share their new vegan traditions and favourite supermarket launches for Christmas 2022. From making ‘turkey’ seitan to a vegan foie gras, there's no need to miss out on all those classic Christmas flavours. They discuss how a plant-based diet can save you loads of money this Christmas and where to shop to find some Christmas food bargains. 

And if you've been following the podcast for a while, you'll no doubt be wondering how Holly and Molly are getting on with their training for the London Landmarks Half Marathon next year. In today's episode, they debate joining the Vegan Runners and how to cope with shin splints.

Part 2: Best-selling author Ray Star was working in PR when she took part in Veganuary in 2018. Wanting to align her career with her new-found compassionate lifestyle, she took a leap of faith and started writing young adult fantasy fiction – with a vegan twist of course! Find out how veganism changed Ray's life in more ways than one, how she uses her writing as a form of activism and what her experience has been like with raising vegan kids.
