Liz is an amazing home cook that shares fun plant-based recipes on the internet with just shy of 200k followers on Instagram. Liz also has a market stall called Mylk and Bun in Sydney. Liz and I had a very open conversation about the challenges of veganism. We also spoke about the struggles of being a vegan content creator in Australia, feeling undervalued (and underpaid) and ethically auditing brands to work with. You can find Liz at https://itslizmiu.com, on Instagram, TikTok or Youtube.

Between studying law and global studies, working as a legal assistant and having a thriving vegan foodie page on Instagram, Sienna Watson squeezed us in to chat about running for local council at the age of 19. We chat about working with the Animal Justice Party, and starting conversations about politics while living in conservative areas of Melbourne. I learned so much from this conversation about how the AJP works, the ins and outs of running for council and why it’s important for young women to be in positions of power. You can connect with Sienna on her foodie Instagram page - @passtheparsleyy.

It has been a crazzzzzyyyy week on Instagram for me! After spending 2 years growing my account to 8k followers, in one week through a viral video I grew to nearly 30k followers. I still can't believe it and am decoding the exact formula to replicate this viral video. Keep your eyes peeled for my course on video content which will be launching in the next few weeks 👀

If you're curious about dipping your toe into activism,  this is a must listen!

I chat to WA based activists, Melanie Fay and MJ Kim about their experience protesting for animal rights last year by walking through Perth CBD in lingerie. The demonstration was a follow-up to the Melbourne based lingerie protest featuring model Stefania Ferrario and activist Tash Peterson. Both Mel and MJ are new to activism and openly share their experiences.

Although this interview recording only features Mel and MJ, I should let you know there was actually another guest on this episode, Liv Richardson, but unfortunately her audio file was lost 😭 a BIG thank you to Liv for her time working on both the protest and on this interview.
