In this week's special episode, Jennifer and I dive deep into our soon-to-be launched "Solutionary Vegan LEVEL-UP podcast." Here we explore the inspiring range of strategies used by animal protectors, environmental activists, and social justice warriors to LEVEL-UP the playing field for all Earth's inhabitants. ⁣⁣

To be truly solutionary, a solution must significantly and strategically address the underlying causes of the problem. It must do so without causing harm to people, animals, or the environment.

Solutionary vegans level up by:

↗️ questioning the "true price" of their actions by asking, "what are the impacts of my everyday choices on other humans, non-human animals, and the planet?" 

↗️ diving deep for accurate information (truth)

↗️ (inclusive) building coalitions by supporting and amplifying the many important, beautiful, diverse voices for change. 

↗️ Prioritizing high-impact strategies that revolutionize systems 

...so that we can effectively advocate for ALL beings. 

Listen, learn, and enjoy!

Here's an interesting trivia question... What did Albert Einstein, Lady Gaga, Leonardo DiVinci, and Frida Khalo have in common?  

They all benefited from a daily journaling practice. The truth is, Stephanie and I could fill this episode with a long list of recognizable people who have lived across centuries. These people have implemented journaling into their daily routines.

We often recommend this powerful tool to our clients. The scientific research to support journaling is extensive and compelling. It is a key strategy for personal development for a variety of reasons.  

However, we hear from our clients that journaling is intimidating to them. They don't know where to begin, and staring at a blank page is so uncomfortable. Occasionally, we find that clients have let their journaling habit become stale.   

In this special episode, Stephanie explores the art and science of journaling and shares tips and strategies to help you get started and keep on writing.

The Daily Dosing of Self-Coaching Segment begins at 13:55.

We haven't done a Q&A in a while, so we thought it would be fun to do one for you!

In this episode, Stephanie and I answered some of the great questions that have been coming in by email, on Instagram, and through the Facebook group. 

We covered everything from making affordable vegan meals/snacks, to top recommended documentaries for new vegans and vegan-curious, to an intriguing discussion about new vegan “meats” like Impossible Burger or Beyond Chicken at popular fast-food chains, and so much more!

Q&A begins at 17:54.

"Mom, it's just too big for one person. How can anyone make any changes that matter? Why try to persuade anyone to do anything when it just won't matter?"

-Eva, 11, after writing her essay on climate change

Stephanie couldn't have been prouder of her little girl when she said this! 

And you know what? Stephanie and I could relate. 

Having spoken with our clients and others in the vegan community, we have seen how heavy the world can be at times. 

But we also know that we are much more able to make a difference than we think we do. Small, consistent steps have a lasting impact, even if we don't realize it at the time. 

We often overlook our actions as not enough to make a difference. We often fall into a destructive pattern of all-or-nothing thinking that paralyzes us from further action by discounting our efforts. 

Does that sound familiar? 

In this special episode, Stephanie digs deep into why you should own your impact, as well as practical tips on how to do it.

Listen, take notes, and enjoy!

Time for your daily dosing of self-coaching!

Training on Anxiety begins at 13:05.

Anxiety has been a relatively constant destination for much of Stephanie's life.

That fact is that as uncomfortable as excessive worry is, there have been periods in her life when it was actually more comfortable to be in an anxiety loop than to be out of one.  

And if she were out of one, she would be worried about not being in one because that would somehow mean that she had missed something… She was late to the worry party… She was forgetting a key thing to worry about…She had missed the anxiety train.

Can you relate? Perhaps this shoe fits you, too…

 In this special episode, after an update on Ella's exploration of cold exposure and the vegan dating scene, you'll discover powerful strategies to help you engage with the root cause of anxiety. 

 You'll be surprised how easy and practical these strategies are to implement!

 Learn and Enjoy!

Let's talk about JOY! 

Following talk about my (Ella's) recent experience (intense!) surviving an ice bath, Stephanie dives into spectacular training on cultivating intentional joy...

We often look at ways to make our days happier by simply inverting what makes us unhappy. We spend time trying to minimize the impact of unhappiness.

Essentially, we ask ourselves, how can I prevent myself from becoming unhappy? That seems a little shortsighted when you consider how that negatively impacts us daily.  

Yes, we can build resilience and coping mechanisms to deal with that impact, but that's not quite the same as being intentional about cultivating moments of joy, is it?

In this episode of The Vegan Life Coach Podcast, Stephanie and I posed powerful prompt questions to inspire you to cultivate intentional moments of joy in your life.

Listen and enjoy!

I had FASCINATING conversations with the creators of The Minimalist Vegan and HeartFull Table Michael and Maša Ofei.

This is a perfect first episode for the New Year since many of us are thinking about decluttering and creating a fresh start for 2022. 

You may just get the inspiration you need to let go of some stuff... I sure was! I went through my closet and immediately collected a huge bag full of clothes to donate! Spring cleaning is coming early this year ;)
