Vegan for Good: Shifting Perspectives, Saving Lives

In this episode, Elena May Gruneberg joins me to talk about her decision to live a vegan lifestyle. During college, we spent a semester in Italy sharing many meat-based meals, so this was a raw and honest conversation about what made her decide she will never eat a meat product or byproduct again. Elena shares some great insight on the challenges of making the choice, while simultaneously destigmatizing the way many people view veganism. Elena's approach is one rooted in the desire to educate, eat clean, and save the lives of animals - without shaming the people who don't follow the same path. We discuss: - Why Elena and her husband, Matt, committed to living vegan - How plant-based diets improve overall health - Common misconceptions about being vegan - How the planet benefits from more people following plant-based diets - Resources for anyone looking to learn more about the vegan lifestyle + plant-based diets This episode's WhoTheF*ck For A Cause supports Farm Sanctuary If you have the means, please visit whothefck.com/donate and give what you can to support healthy living conditions for farm animals.
