Let’s talk about resilience next – do you have a story you can share with us?
Certainly! There was a time in my vegan journey when I faced significant criticism and skepticism from friends and family. Many questioned my decision to adopt a vegan lifestyle, citing concerns about nutrition, taste, and convenience.
Despite this pushback, I remained steadfast in my commitment to veganism. I took the time to educate myself on plant-based nutrition, experimented with new recipes, and engaged in open and constructive conversations with those who doubted my choices.
Over time, my resilience paid off. By demonstrating the benefits of veganism through my own experiences—improved health, increased energy, and a deeper sense of alignment with my values—I was able to shift the perspectives of some skeptics. They began to see that veganism was not only viable but also rewarding.
This journey taught me the importance of staying true to my convictions, even in the face of adversity. It reinforced my belief in the power of education, patience, and leading by example. Ultimately, my resilience not only strengthened my commitment to veganism but also inspired positive change in the attitudes of those around me.

Learning and unlearning are both critical parts of growth – can you share a story of a time when you had to unlearn a lesson?
One significant lesson I had to unlearn was idea that perfection is the key to success in adopting a vegan lifestyle. When I first transitioned to veganism, I placed immense pressure on myself to follow a strict, flawless diet without any slip-ups.
This mindset made me overly critical of myself and led to feelings of guilt whenever I deviated from my plant-based path, even in minor ways. It created unnecessary stress and undermined the joy and freedom that should accompany a vegan lifestyle.
The turning point came when I realized that perfection is not a realistic or sustainable standard. I learned that occasional slip-ups or indulgences do not define my commitment to veganism. Instead, what matters most is my overall dedication to making compassionate choices for animals, the environment, and my health.
By letting go of the need for perfection, I embraced a more balanced and compassionate approach to vegan living. I allowed myself to enjoy the journey, celebrate progress over perfection, and be kind to myself when challenges arose. This shift in mindset not only reduced my stress levels but also deepened my connection to the values that inspired me to go vegan in the first place.
