This episode was difficult to record and scary to release, but it’s a truth that Rachel wanted to share. She is no longer vegan.  Rachel shares the full story, from going vegan for the first time, to how her needs changed throughout different life transitions, and what finally made her reconsider the views that were so ingrained in her psyche. She discusses what this means for her health and wellbeing, as well as the mixed emotions she feels about sharing this news with the world. Ultimately, we never know what is right for another human being. We can only hope to live in a way that is sustainable to the earth - and to ourselves. It is both brave and difficult to open ourselves up to backlash. With that, we ask that you listen with kindness. Emotional reactions are okay, but please keep them to yourself.
