I turned vegan because I finally watched a documentary called “Cowspiracy”. I had avoided this documentary and all the rest, because I was afraid of the truth. I pledge to be vegan as well as raise my two children vegan proudly, and I wish that soon the rest of my family will too.

I was at my friend’s house and we were working on a campaign for Prop2 to help egg laying hens used in factory farms. I said, “I love animals so much.”
My friend Judy Landey exclaimed,”If you love animals so much, then why do you eat them.” That was the wake up call I needed to stop consuming dead flesh. I’m thankful my eyes & heart were opened that night. We are all pre-vegan in our hearts.

My super cool older cousin came home from college and dared me not to eat any meat on Thanksgiving day of 1996. I was 9, I took the dare! That night she showed me a VHS tape that she had brought back from college - it was being passed around amongst her friends. It was similar to footage from Earthlings. I never ate another animal again! I didn't learn about the rest until 19 years later, and I continue to learn more every single day. We went vegan in 2015. My son did it the same day, despite me trying to convince him to wait and let me try it first. I'm so thankful he had more sense than me at 5 years old! Now he goes by VeganEvan and speak all over the country! We do activism everywhere we go 🙂

My Vegan Story :
I've always had an interest in living in a healthier, more natural way since I can remember. I ended up getting a job at one of the two Health Food Stores we had in town where the owners and employees were vegetarian. I quickly wanted to join ranks. The more I thought about it the more I felt it was something I needed to pursue. Not for health necessarily, but for the animals. I started off by making my husband and I the same food but would replace the portion of meat for me with some alternative without him realizing it. I was so afraid he would be against it enough to stop me from doing it at all. He never did stop me, but he never did join me either. This was when I was in my late 30's. When I was 40 in 1998, I ended up working for the other Health Food Store we had in town. One of the employees and I became close friends and after sharing some of the things I knew was happening to the animals, she became vegetarian, also. I'm not sure how many years later she started losing her hair to the point of having some bald spots and ended up finding out her iron levels were extremely low. She was pushed by her doctor to eat meat to remedy it. This kind of pushed me into doing that as well. So, for a span of about a year, we both ate a small amount of meat. Neither one of us felt good about it and didn't want to continue. My friend got her iron levels back up, but never really believed her low levels were caused by being vegetarian after researching everything she could about it. We went back to being vegetarian but were actually vegan 95% of the time so we decided to jump in all the way on January 1st, 2013. My friend, her husband and I have been vegan ever since. And my friend has never had any more issues with her iron levels being low.

My Vegan Story :
My initial interest in becoming meat free was to actually see if I could go vegetarian and nowhere near the vegan lifestyle. However my son was a vegetarian from before birth as he would not allow me to eat or even smell meat without serious consequences. I mastered making him meat free dishes and still was okay with testing the vegetarian lifestyle, as long as I got to keep my artery clogging cheese coma going on, I was willing.
Then comes soon to be husband and his doctor actually informs him that he needs to clean up his eating act and drop as much of the bad eating as possible. Pretty much all meat and increase greens intake by tenfold. I leaped onto the chance to show my support and decided then and there we would test out becoming vegans. We had to quickly get a firm foundation in the fact that we would commit to this fully and not give ourselves a deadline. So we slowly but surely act down our "bad" pantry that had just been stocked up on junk snacks and high sugar juices and a deep freezer full of meats to portion out for later use. Luckily the fridge ran on empty and on my next grocery trip I spent close to 3 hours perusing every isle as I bought only vegan items. Being still new I bought only items that plainly stated vegan on them. Now I know to read the entire box and even if they don't state vegan, that could very well still be!

We have been transitioning vegans for 2 1/2 months as we whittled away our old supplies in pantry stock up. We converted to full vegan Jan 1st 2021. It was amazing how quickly our bodies were okay with no meat or dairy substance. Now we feel it if we chance a meal and get non vegan food.
So far the journey seems well worth it and has opened up our eyes to being able to create all our old favorite dishes but modified! This is a change we are very happy to see and plan to stay the course going forward!!!

Let’s turn your vegan website into a success story! As veganbusinesstrainer, I help vegan coaches, entrepreneurs and businesses launch professional websites that attract more customers – with you, in 1 day.

As a digital nomad and fitness enthusiast, I get to know vegan coaches, entrepreneurs and businesses in all parts of the world - and they want to motivate our fellow humans to lead a vegan, fulfilling and healthy life and they consider their own business. But most of them don't even start - out of perfectionism and fear of failure - or have websites where their customers don't buy their offers. When my contacts started earning more money with my tips, I knew: If my contacts work with my tips and start a successful vegan business, I can motivate other people to do the same!

I would like to pass on my experience as an online solo entrepreneur and help vegan coaches and vegan entrepreneurs to start their own business with confidence. With my experience and my implementation mindset, I am convinced that you can build a successful business and support other people in a vegan, fulfilling and healthy life.

My Vegan Story :
I have always been a dedicated carnivore. I gained a lot of weight and attained 400 lbs, with an insulin pump, a1c of 12.4, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, restricted breathing due to the weight, couldn't move without effort and pain, couldn't walk more than 25 ft or stand for more than 2 min. So I had gastric bypass. I lost 160 lbs in one year because I couldn't hold any food down at all. It's been 3 yrs and I still can't hold down meat or drink cows milk without getting sick. I've come to realize that I can't depend on my old diet to live. I had lost a total of 200 lbs then I gained 50 back due to extreme sweet cravings. I started looking into alternative ways of eating while still getting my protein and meeting more of my nutrient needs. I was leaning towards Mediterranean, pescatarian, flexitarian but I started to look deeper and found youtube videos by Dr. Furhman, Dr. Colin Campbell, Forks over Knives, The Game Changers, etc and my thinking changed. I couldn't stand to hear the pigs screaming in pain or the thought of the emotional devastation of the separation of cows and their calves, the pain that chickens now live through because of overcrowding and hormones that make them grow too much and too fast. I found out I can get my protein from other sources without putting an animal in pain to do it. I am still on the journey and working on my diet with the goal of being fully vegan. I'm not eating meat at all, but I am still eating cheese and cooking with milk or cream when needed. I know there are alternatives to that and am researching product by product. I'm trying not to depend on processed vegan foods but concentrating on whole foods.

I ate the standard American diet my whole life, I have been having surgeries since the age of 8 and I now know it was all from eating animal products. At the age of 41 I found out that I had colon cancer and had surgery to remove the tumors. I had a chemo port placed and before I started with the therapy I watched "what the Health" and immediately I went on a whole food plant based diet. I am almost 45 now and I feel better than I did in my 20s. I am now fascinated with the human system and learn as much as I can everyday and started working at a gym and am able to help others learn about the detrimental effects of the standard American diet and the benefits of a vegan diet by listening to my story

I was taken to a hatchery at 9 and saw all the chicks being gassed and suffocated. I went vegetarian in 1980 but didn’t put the full story of animal suffering together until around 1985. I was at a vegan picnic when I said "I don’t eat animals" but I was drinking milk in my English tea and someone said “You don’t kill animals to eat you just abuse and exploit them”. As soon as I was alone in my car driving away from the event my conscience knew and wouldn’t allow me to continue to financially support egregious cruelty I had not “ seen “ until his comment. He became my best friend really and we are still friends to this day and fellow activists 38 years later.

I grew up on a small farm in the midwest, we had cows, pigs, sheep, chickens, lots of cats, and a dog. I knew all about the process of raising animals that eventually were loaded up on a truck and...we know the rest.
I was the county fair queen and champion beef showman, but on the flip side, I remember the sadness I felt when that champion steer was loaded onto a truck.
In my college years, I announced I was a vegetarian to my family, that didn't go over well. It was like I had just denounced our way of life. However, my father - a hard working fit man who never drank alcohol or smoked, died of a massive heart attack at the age of 51. He looked so healthy, but we ate meat, eggs, and dairy at nearly every meal. Fast foward five decades and I watch The Game Changers. My next meal was vegan and I never looked back. I know most people can't change that quickly, but I did. I've witnessed several family members and loved ones struggle with heart bypass operations, the fear, the pain. I want to spare others (and yes, myself).

I loved that lamb. It's not been a year since they killed that lamb. I was angry and sad, I didn't want to eat meat anymore. When I grew up and found out that I had been wrong all my life and that vegan was the best thing you could do in my life, I decided to become vegan.

Being a Vegetarian all my life, I never felt the need of eating meet or eggs but loved dairy and dairy products more than any of the plant based food. In mid 2014, while living in Seattle, I came across some talk on Internet which talked about impact of Dairy on health, environmental and the cruelty involved. It didn't believe it and started researching further, over the period of next few weeks, I found overwhelming evidence of each of these aspects and it all started to make sense. Then over the next few months I started weaning off after like 38 years of my life. It was rather a long and lonely journey in a not so conducive envirnment. By the end of the year I was 90% off it. The next 10% took considerable amount of time. In Aug 2016 I visited the only Vegan Groery Store of Seattle, to volunteer and that day onwards I can say I was offcially a Vegan. Over the last 3.5 years I have come to realization that Vegan junk food can also be as unhealth as animal products. So, I mostly try to follow a Whole Food Plant Based diet. Some day, I hope to develop as strong a repulsion for oil, refined sugar and refined grains as I have for dairy today.

My Vegan Story :
Tenho 33 anos, nasci no Brasil e quando não estava muito satisfeita no meu curso universitário no Brasil, decidi visitar o Canadá - isso foi há 13 anos e desde então me tornei cidadã canadense.


Minha jornada veg começou aos 13 anos, quando li num zine, num show alternativo de punk rock, que mais de 90% das florestas são desmatadas por causa da “agricultura animal”.

Meses depois (1999), deixei de comer animais, também inspirada por uma nova amiga vegetariana na escola.



15 anos mais tarde, comecei a procurar grupos online de pessoas veg. Num evento, contando como eu era ovolacto pra uma moça, ela me perguntou “por que não é vegan?” - Eu não tive resposta e naquele momento já soube que queria ser vegana. Pesquisei, mudei hábitos alimentares e outros, assisti documentários e eventualmente vi um post no Instagram sobre uma vigília, evento da organização The Save Movement pelos direitos dos animais.
A partir daí, fui me envolvendo mais e mais no ativismo, até após 1 ano resolver sair do meu trabalho corporativo de 9 anos, me desfazer do meu apartamento e carro e viajar pra deixar de participar daquela rotina sistêmica e passar mais tempo com a família e vivendo a vida.
Minhas participação e organização de eventos ativistas enquanto fazia o mochilão não foram despercebidas. Falar português e espanhol também foram fatores pra uma das organizações que mais admiro me convidar pra turnês pela América Latina pra abrir mais grupos, atender VegFests e organizar vigílias, oferecer palestras e expandir o movimento pelos direitos dos animais nos países de língua portuguesa e inglesa.


Desde então, viajei por 20 cidades de 12 países exclusivamente pelo projeto #SaveLatino, abrindo novos grupos e não só organizando vigílias e palestras, mas também participando e (co)organizando eventos de conscientização, reuniões, Cubos da Verdade (Anonymous for the Voiceless), interrupções (DxE Direct Action Everywhere), resgates, investigações em matadouros, fazendas e feiras onde animais são usados e mortos.
Fora as ações de rua e o ativismo diretamente relacionado à causa animal, também participo ou apoio e tenho interesse em movimentos em prol do meio-ambiente, da população indígena, de imigrantes, moradores de rua, LGBTQ, saúde física e mental, e outros que lutam por um mundo mais justo e compassivo.

Mais recentemente, tenho aberto as portas da minha casa pelo AirBnB, onde posso conhecer e compartilhar experiências e informações com pessoas do mundo todo sem sair de casa. Também tenho pesquisado sobre o desperdício de alimentos fazendo o Dumpster Diving, onde temos a oportunidade de oferecer alternativas àqueles que não têm dinheiro pra se alimentar.

Went vegan in the summer of 2018. "What the health" documentary was the final push for me. Once I saw that my diet was not hurting just myself ( that, I could live with) , but poorly kept and inhumanely slaughtered animals ( I had told myself before I saw contrary evidence that there was no way the authorities would allow inhumane conditions), and also the planet....everything just clicked into place and made perfect sense to me. All in one instant. It was instantaneous. I became vegan overnight. Rid myself of rheumatoid arthritis symptoms along the way too.

My Vegan Story :
🌱 Former Vegf**ktarian between 2012-2020, I realized how hypocritical I was: wearing other individuals' skins, furs & skins, and consuming their secretions & periods while claiming to be ethical by abstaining from eating their dead bodies. 🤦‍♀️

My Vegan Story :
My candles made me vegan!

I started my candle business a few years ago after becoming frustrated that I couldn't find eco-friendly, pure and non-toxic candles on the market for use in my Complementary Therapy business. I then decided to make my own. I wanted them as close to nature as possible without harming anything deliberately in the process. It then got me thinking...I loved the finished product so much and was so proud that they were vegan (I was a vegetarian at the time) that if I was promoting them as vegan, surely I should be too!

My Vegan Story :
I was pescaterian for a year, at 57 years old, decided to go vegan a year into it. As much as I liked the taste of meat, I never wanted anyone to die for me. So, I said, no more. Better late than never! Now I am WFPB certified. A volunteer with a local vegan/animal rights group. I protest, do investigations and anything else I can to to promote animal welfare and compassion.

My Vegan Story :
I went vegetarian for the first time when I was 16 when I found out about the suffering. I spent the next 15 years bouncing back and forth struggling to comprehend the reality of animal agriculture and reconcile that with the decent people I knew in the world I thought I lived in… Finally on 2005 all of the information I’ve been reading for 15 years clicked, after watching a particularly devastating undercover video of a Chinese for farm. Part of my inability to stay vegetarian or vegan in the past had something to do with not feeling well, so when I went vegan and 2005 I decided to learn about nutrition and try to be as healthy as possible. I’d now say I’m vegan for the animals, the environment, and health. No the truth is, it’s my love of animals more than anything that got me to go vegan and will keep me VEGAN forever no matter what. I run a small animal rights group in Mobile, Alabama, as well as a micro sanctuary for chickens rescued from animal agriculture. I also at any given time share my home/life with around 12 to 15 rescue cats and three rescue dogs. And I’m about to release a short documentary on the importance of including non-human animals in our circle of compassion.

My Vegan Story :
Hi, I went vegan because I watched What The Health. This changed me. I began to watch more and more on the China Study. I’m hooked. I also looked at what happens to the animals on the front end of the food process. This really did it for me. Plus the stories were proof on how fast and healthy one can be going vegan.
