The holidays can be a difficult time for many reasons. Being the only vegan in your circle can add to the stress and anxiety. We get it.

That’s why we decided to tackle this topic for our December show. Jeannie from @kpnwdb joined us and we discussed the different tips and tricks that we learned over the years. We could have talked for hours about this topic, but knowing that we needed to keep it brief, we mainly discussed eating meals with others during special occasions.

We recognize that many of things that we discussed are not a possibility for everyone and we are fortunate to have access to things that others may not.

If you are struggling this holiday season and need help with navigating in this non-vegan world, please reach out to us. We may not have the answers, but together we will help find resources that may help. ??

This first episode engages discussion among four women, long-time Coalition volunteers, working with people involved in the justice system.

They speak about lived experiences since one is recovering from incarceration, another works with disabilities and mental health as a family member and social worker. They bring the perspective of field experience advocating for change inside and around the law enforcement, 911, jail and court systems, and helping people recover after a justice system crisis completely upends the family health and economic situation. This episode asks, “What is Justice?”

Their collective knowledge illuminates varying perceptions of justice revealed by citizens experiencing a civic crisis incident. Often starting with an emergency 9-1-1 call for help, the trauma and shock escalates, becoming more complex engaging police officials and the social and civic entanglement of investigations, arrest, incarceration, court appearances, prison, probation and multifaceted justice system impacts.
