One of the main reasons why kids decide they don’t want to be vegan anymore is because they see themselves as different to their peers, and don’t feel like they fit in and that they're missing out.
And one of the places they notice this most is at school. Obviously the easiest way around this would be to make sure your kids’ friends are all vegan, but unfortunately that’s not possible for most of us right now. So it’s really important that we make sure that even though our kids are eating different food to their friends, they still feel like they fit in, and they’re not the odd one out. On today's episode, I'm talking about my top 5 tips on how to make sure your vegan kids fit in at school.

In today's episode, I answer the biggest question of all - Is a Vegan Diet Actually Healthy for Kids?
In addition to this main question, I also talk about some of the myths we're often faced with as vegan parents - you can't get enough protein from a vegan diet, you need red meat for iron, and you can only get calcium from dairy.

How many times have you signed up a vegan meal plan, and felt like a failure because you just can't make them work? 

You sign up for a 7 Day Vegan Meal Plan, and last about 2 days, before resorting to take away and letting all that healthy food go bad in your fridge. 

Well, let me start by saying, it's not you, it's them. The reason why those vegan meal plans didn't work for you is because they weren't written for you and your family. 

Well in today's podcast, I'm here to talk to you about why this is totally normal, expected and NOT YOUR FAULT. Yep, it's them, not you. 

I'm also giving you 3 things to look out for when you're looking at a vegan meal plan, or building your own, so that you can make sure that it actually works. 

These 3 tips will give you a vegan family meal plan that actually saves you time on cooking, saves you money, and has your family eating the healthy foods they need to. 

If you're looking for a family friendly fully customisable set of meal plans, you can get a free 7 day sample of my Vegan Family Meal Plans here.

In my first ever podcast episode, I talk about how dropping the perfectionism around our vegan diets actually makes us (and our kids!) healthier eaters in the long run. 

Where Does the Perfectionism Belief Come From?

There is a strong underlying belief in the vegan world that we have to eat perfectly to be healthy. This comes from 2 areas. 

Firstly, the Meat and Dairy Industry works incredibly hard to spread the belief that we can't get the nutrients we need without meat and dairy. 

And then many of the Vegan Diet Influencers (including doctors and dietitians) post recipes and food pics with meals brimming with legumes, veggies and wholegrains, making us feel that the only way to be healthy on a vegan diet is to eat those foods. 

But I'm here to tell you, there is another way.
In fact, if you work on making small tweaks over time, you'll end up eating healthier overall than if you try to eat "perfectly" from the start. 

In this episode, I teach you 3 small changes you can make to your family's diet right now, that will make your food healthier.
