Welcome to a new series on the Consciously Clueless podcast called My Vegan Story. If you’ve listened to the podcast, you’ll know anyone who becomes vegan has a unique path to getting there. There’s usually something that pushes someone over the edge and solidifies their vegan status. This series is dedicated to highlighting all those unique paths.

Some make the switch overnight and some take years to find their way there. Some stumble their way to vegan through personal nutrition needs, others have a profound experience with animals. Either way, by sharing these stories I hope you’ll feel inspired, understood, and find some new resources to further your own vegan journey.

Do you want to share your story of how you became vegan? Send me a voice memo with your three-five minute story to [email protected].

In this episode, we hear from Amy Barankovich and how she went vegan. Thanks to  Amy for inspiring us with her story!
