    In this episode of the Vegan Visibility Podcast, Dr. Lisa Kemmerer, an animal activist, philosopher, and author, engages in a thought-provoking conversation about her book "Amore and Vegan Ethics." As a retired philosophy professor, Lisa shares insights into her acronym "AMORE," which encapsulates the core moral reasons for adopting a plant-based lifestyle. She starts with "A" for animal suffering, delving into the ethical considerations surrounding the treatment of animals in various industries, with a focus on dairy farming. Moving on to "M" for medical, Lisa explores the health benefits of a plant-based diet, emphasizing its positive impact on preventing diseases like cancer and heart-related issues.

    09/11/2023 Duração: 35min

    In the picturesque town of Whistler, British Columbia, a heartwarming tale of community, passion, and resilience unfolds. Meet Natasha and Ed Tatton, the dynamic duo behind Ed's BReD, a thriving vegan/plant-based bakery that has captured the hearts and taste buds of locals and visitors alike. Their story is one of humble beginnings, the power of community, and the spirit of innovation.   It all began with a simple gesture of kindness. Natasha, a yoga enthusiast, started gifting loaves of sourdough bread to Tina, the owner of a local yoga studio, in exchange for yoga classes.   Word of mouth quickly spread, and soon, the demand for their delectable sourdough bread soared. Fueled by the support of their tight-knit community, Natasha and Ed decided to turn their passion into a business.   In March 2019, BReD officially opened its doors, marking the beginning of a journey filled with challenges and triumphs.   Little did they know, their resolve would be tested by an unexpected turn of events - the COVID-19 pande

  • 265: The Power of Humane Education: Zoe Weil's Journey to a Better World

    12/09/2023 Duração: 31min

    In this episode of the Vegan Visibility Podcast, I am talking with Zoe Weil, co-founder and president of the Institute for Humane Education (IHE).  In this enlightening conversation, we delve deep into the transformative power of humane education and solutionary thinking.   One central theme we explored was the incredible evolution of humane education since the late '80s. Zoe's journey began with a simple summer job teaching middle school students about animal issues, which turned out to be a pivotal moment in her life. It was during this experience that she witnessed the profound impact of education on young minds.   One standout student, in particular, learned about the harsh realities of animal testing and, driven by sheer determination, handwrote leaflets to raise awareness. Instead of distributing them to classmates, he took them to the streets of Philadelphia, becoming an overnight activist. This moment marked the beginning of Zoe's realization of the profound capacity of education to inspire action and

  • 264: Bhu Foods: Nurturing Spirituality and Veganism in Business

    07/08/2023 Duração: 39min

    Laura Katleman, Founder of Bhur Foods, shares her journey from being a vegetarian for many years to becoming a vegan. She describes how her eating habits evolved over time, starting from giving up beef, then chicken, seafood, and finally all animal products.   The Catalyst for Going Vegan   Laura’s transition to veganism wasn't a conscious decision but rather an evolution. As she became more health-conscious and her health practitioners advised her against consuming dairy, eggs, and other animal products, she naturally phased them out of her diet.   Embracing the Vegan Identity   Laura doesn’t strongly identify with the “vegan” label. She believes that being vegan works well for her body and her spiritual practice, making her feel lighter and more at ease, but avoids labels. For her, veganism is more of a personal journey than an identity she loudly proclaims.   Filling the Gap with Vegan Sweets   Laura noticed a lack of healthy vegan sweets in the market, which inspired her to start her comp

At the time, she was unaware of the harsh realities of factory farming and the conditions in which animals were kept. However, as she began to learn more about the suffering endured by animals, particularly egg-laying hens, she felt a growing discomfort with her own participation in these industries. Recognizing the misalignment between her actions and her values, Chrissy made the pivotal decision to become vegan

  • 261: Reinventing Farms the Regenerative Plant-Based Way with Omaid Hiwaizi

    03/05/2023 Duração: 32min

    On this episode of the Vegan Visibility show, we had the pleasure of hosting Omaid Hiwaizi, a veteran in technology marketing and an ethical vegan for almost three decades. Omaid is the founder of ReFarm Fund, a novel project aimed at promoting sustainable farming practices that align environmental impact with farmers' profitability.  Throughout the show, Omaid shared his journey of blending his passion for veganism with his expertise in technology and fintech. He discussed his concern about the challenges faced by small-scale farmers, the rise of industrial factory farming, and the significant environmental footprint of animal farming.  Omaid commissioned a study which demonstrated that a transition from animal and intensive farming to rotation-based arable farming and tree planting could result in a higher return on capital, even with potentially lower output, due to decreased input costs. Inspired by these findings, Omaid and his team are developing a loan product to support farmers in making this tr

    23/02/2023 Duração: 34min

    One moment in time can change everything. For Sabrina Fair Andronica, the moment happened when she was deciding what to order for lunch at a local restaurant. As she looked at the menu, she saw a vegetarian sandwich among all the chicken, beef and pork choices. “Why would I choose meat when I claim to love animals so much,” crossed her mind.  It was in that moment in 2004 she realized that her actions and words needed to align fully. During our conversation, we talk about her choice to identify as vegan, her love of animals, how she came to do her animal activism by writing children’s book, and her blue nose pit, who teaches her every day, what’s on the outside is often a mask of something very different. Sabrina is an activist at heart and loves sharing her passion through her children’s books. Her books include… Adventures At Rainbow Bridge is a beautifully illustrated book about   the importance of accepting ourselves and accepting each other. Labrador Retriever with the Block Head is a

  • 254: The Vegan Stay, A Haven for Animals and the People who Love Them with Faik Bouhrik

    17/01/2023 Duração: 35min

    Imagine being able to combine the passion of animal safety with your passion of travel. Until now, it was almost unheard of. Leading the way, Faik Bouhrik combined his love of business, animals, sanctuaries and travel together to create The Vegan Stay. At a time when veganism is becoming more than a mindset and a lifestyle and one of the fastest growing sectors of the economy, large corporations that have profited from the suffering of animals by treating them as mere commodities are primed to take full advantage of this new trend. During Faik’s time volunteering at Animal Sanctuaries in America, he was able to learn about the work these organizations do and the unique challenges the people behind them face, day in and day out. Animal Sanctuaries,  he realized, play a crucial role not only in rescuing animals in need from horrific exploitation but also in educating the general public about the need to see the animals for the sentient beings they truly are. During this episode, Faik Bouhrik and Kathleen Gage,

  • 253: Globally Acclaimed Vegan Author, M.C. Ronen, Writes First of Its Kind Thriller Trilogy

    09/01/2023 Duração: 34min

    Author M. C. Ronen (Maya Cohen-Ronen) is a New Zealand based vegan, feminist, and animal rights activist. She wrote The Liberation Trilogy out of disappointment at being unable to find mainstream books that avoid banal mentions of animal cruelty acts and/or everyday speciesism. Her deliberate intention was to create an exciting, fast-paced, page-turning fiction series that has a clear ethical undertone and message with a potential appeal to a wide range of readers.    M.C. Ronen has always been a book junkie. She loves fast-paced, suspenseful thrillers, full of plot-twists and cliff-hangers that made her heart race is her preference.  Upon going vegan she discovered to her surprise and dismay that she could no longer enjoy books as she did before.  Suddenly she could no longer find any reading material – at least, not anything that was 'safe'.  Now, every book she picked up, whether recommended to her by a friend, promoted on mainstream media, a best seller, or randomly picked up in the bookstore – every book

    13/11/2022 Duração: 16min

    Many people erroneously believe that 50% of businesses fail within the first year. Yet, this is not necessarily true. Data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) indicates that approximately 20% of new businesses fail during the first two years of being open, 45% during the first five years, and 65% during the first 10 years. Only 25% of new businesses make it to 15 years or more. Many people believe it has to do with the economy, not enough money to market, not knowing what to do or the market being too saturated. The fact is, one of the main reasons for business failure is failure to master the sales conversation. In this episode of the Vegan Visibility show, we talk with mindset, sales coach, Trevor Banerjee. Trevor specializes in working with entrepreneurs on the limiting believes they have around sales.
