Live Planted- Practical Vegan Living

You have heard a lot about changes coming around here, well hallelujah it's finally here! A lot has been happening behind the scenes and I wanted to bring you up to date because we're on this podcast journey together. As you can imagine a lot has evolved since the pod first started almost TWO years ago, yet the visual aspect of the show was still the same. I'll share all the behind the scenes of the new 'eyeball' logo, tell you all about the new merch, what charity goes with your merch purchases, and what to look forward to in the new year. Plus, I'm adding a new segment where I quickly answer some listener questions. This week, I'm starting with a hardball: Can your pets be vegan?

What I thought would be a regular Friday morning listening to a local speaker talk, turned out to be a 'life-affirming' event. So this week I'm sharing Cole Imperi with you in hopes that she leaves you feeling as inspired and charged as she left me that Friday morning. Cole, a thanatologist, talks us through listening to the ego vs your true self & why it's important. Plus, how to ACTUALLY live in the present with actionable tips that aren't 'far out' at all. If you leave this pod with anything, take Cole's life philosophy, "Do what you can with what you have", and apply it today.

Before the interview today I answer a question from one of you guys, 'how to get off of cheese'. I'll tell you why it probably hasn't worked when you tried to kick the dairy in the past and the trick to making it stick with zero cravings.

When it comes to switching from the standard American diet, it can be hard to imagine consuming whole plant foods ONLY. This week I brought in Ilene Godofsky Moreno of The Colorful Kitchen, who made that switch nearly 10 years ago. Ilene went from pop tart eating, hamburger helper making, to colorful whole foods plant eater. She shares how she solved her allergies through food and learned to balance this lifestyle in social situations. Plus, Ilene shares her surprising top 3 kitchen essentials, one of which I have many questions about.

What are the things I wish I knew before going vegan? Today on the pod I share the 8 things I wish I knew, from why your thinking on everything seems to change, to which restaurants always serve vegans. I talk about cheese cravings, vegan support systems, and more. If you're a new vegan hopefully you learn something new and if you're a seasoned vegan hopefully you find comfort in my words. As a bonus, vegan nachos are mentioned heavily in this episode- you're welcome!

Veganism is incredibly personal, everyone starts for different reasons and makes it work in ways that suit their particular lifestyle. So I'm sharing my vegan story, how I went from thinking 'I'm vegetarian, that is more than enough", to full-blown vegan advocate. Plus, I've got a confession for you that you probably didn't see coming, (it's ok because I didn't see it coming either), that I really wasn't sure if I wanted to share on the podcast. And, find out what my editing self had to break in to say that my recording self didn't even realize. GROWTH PEOPLE!

Many think that veganism is a passing fad, a diet with an expiration date. Untrue, says, Dr. Ian McDonald, veganism and vegetarianism have a long history, traced back until the fifteenth century. On today's episode, we're going to explore how the hunter gatherer's expressed remorse over eating animals, mock meats way before the current state of faux meats, Paris' role in laying the groundwork for the modern veg movement, and what the future holds.

Plus, in the first segment, I'll keep you updated on all things McDonald's vegan options. What are they offering? Do I support it? Do you agree with me? As always, let me know over on instagram if you agree.

In the vegan community there's a lot of questions and a LOT of infighting. What do these two have to do with each other? One explanation, Echo Chambers. We're constantly fed information online that matches our very specific beliefs, leading us to believe our beliefs are with the majority whether they are or not. When reality doesn't match our perceived majority beliefs we don't know what to do. Today I'm going to answer your questions on how to talk to others without getting upset, and what we need to remember when talking to people inside and outside the community.
