Positive Beginnings

Ok, so I am so pumped about starting a career that revolves around Veganism. I have so many ideas and of course, I want to strive to always express my views on animal welfare in the most positive light! You can't change a world of hate with more hate right?? So first thing I want to do is start putting original quotes on my photography and selling them as canvas art, window/wall decals, posters, etc.

With the money that I make from those, I would like to start setting up events where I (or we, if I have any volunteers?) show people not only the cruelty that is involved in animal agriculture, but also the health problems caused by eating animal protein. Afterwards, I'd like to have a small class on how to begin life as a Vegan. I'll first give a very detailed definition of what exactly is a Vegan and what products we omit from our lives; it's not just food, guys! It's also about entertainment, clothing, beauty products and household cleaning supplies! Then I will give out a few simple recipes to start with - by the way, I am working on a recipe book! Two different ones actually! One for the health centered Vegan and one for the Vegan that is doing it more for animals and still wants to eat ooey gooey, crunchy, sweet, sinfully delicious junk food! There's a stereotype that all Vegans are healthy and fit and while it's not true, it IS true that most Vegan junk food is still healthier than their animal products based counterparts! It'd be ideal to have some snacks and smoothies to share with everyone as well.

Lastly, I'd like to ask everyone, what IS stopping you from going Vegan? In today's day and age, it is easier than ever to be Vegan! There are better substitutes, lots of Vegan (or Vegan friendly) restaurants, a plethora of support groups on Facebook, millions of easy recipes (Pinterest) and thousands of studies showing that animal products are rapidly shortening our lifespan with disease and even aging our skin. So whether you're just to busy to learn about it or intimidated by trying something new, send me e-mail, tell me your struggles and I would love to help you through your Vegan journey <3

Peace, Love and Life
