Whistler Virtual Vegan Fest June 20th

June 17, 2020 By julia

First off, I hope you are all doing well amidst the firey world we’re all living in at this moment.

I have taken some time to step back from content creation (thank you to those who reached out), and continue to try my best to educate myself more on everything that is Black Lives Matter. With that, moving forward I will now be more proactive in featuring and lifting up the Black Voices in the vegan community. There are many!

That’s what the last blog post is all about.
15 Inspiring Black Vegans You Need to Follow

PLUS, places to donate and Black-Owned businesses to support.

Sending out love and compassion to all of you!

🥾 The Itinerary So Far Day 1: St Ives → Zennor (8. 🥾 The Itinerary So Far
Day 1: St Ives → Zennor (8.8 miles) 
Day 2: Zennor → Pendeen (7.5 miles) 
Day 3: Pendeen → Sennen Cove (9.5 miles)

Part 1 (first 3 days) of our St. Ives to Penzance hike with amazing ladies! 
Vegan food, history, wild ponies & amazing views with Mama Steph 
🇬🇧 What a trip with the amazing Emma and her travel co: @veganadventureholidays!

If you’re lucky enough to have your parents on this Earth right now, book the trip. Do it. ❤️
Emma’s Vegan Adventure Holidays run all around the world, with hiking trips across Guatemala, Mexico, Colombia, Costa Rica and here in Cornwall.

Emma’s knowledge, vibe and passion for the outdoors and vegan food sets the tone beautifully. The trail convos are endlessly awesome. You can truly shut your brain off when it comes to where your next meal is coming from, and all the food did not disappoint! So much yumminess.

Also - a moment of appreciation for our local guide @exploreincornwall Steve. He knew every stone, flower, animal and piece of history there is to know. 
Some Steve highlights for you:

🌿 Years of work with the National Trust and mental health walks for firefighters, so much so that King Charles requested to sit with him over tea for an hour
🐦 Helped protect the eggs of the Chough (a nearly extinct Cornish bird) from people stealing them to sell, and the Choughs went from just a few pairs to about 50 pairs today
🌉 Built a few of the bridges along the path himself
What a guy.

I love pumping up other vegan businesses, especially when it’s something like this. 
It was so fun to experience, and so special to do with someone you love!

Enjoy the journey and the people along for the ride! 
Vegan mama and daughter stamp of approval 😍

PS: Loved our hiking buddies, Karen, a vegan vet! And Denise. Follow her here 🐾 @dowstefarmrescue
She’s rescued not 1, not 2, but 21 DOGS! What an angel.

Nervous system reset for you during the scroll. 
 
If you’re thinking of getting a dog… @whistlerwag @petfinder @saintsrescue @newhoperescue @cerritos_beach_dogs all always have incredible dogs waiting for you.
🙌🥰

Couldn’t imagine not finding Zak from @bcspca 8 years ago, & Tez from @cortez_rescue 2 years ago. 

Theyre so different in the best & weirdest, most awesome ways. 

Thriving on our fave local dog food delivered to the door: @virchewdogs

(ps: If you have a dog with itchy skin: this is your answer!! 
It was for Zak, and we tried everything else)

Have you adopted a pup? What’s your rescue story??

Women inspiring women ~ through the mag, collective events, and a podcast (coming soon). 

When brilliant women gather, something magic happens. 

Connections form. 
Ideas bloom. 
Support feels endless, and anything feels possible. 

The ground bridging the gap between you, and through your limiting beliefs, feels more solid beneath you.

I hope my article brings some lightness and fun into your life… Along with some new perspectives and kitchen hacks to make your life easier:) 

PS: 
Like I say in the magazine, I am working on something for you.

The EAT PLANTS & DANCE COLLECTIVE 

A membership that will be the home to my flagship course called the #LightenUpMethod ✨

A 4 week reset where you will learn the foundations of shuffle, dancing, and easy ways to replace processed foods and animal foods, with whole plant foods rich in all of the nutrients you could possibly need. 

Plants to reduce inflammation & chronic disease.
Dance for lymphatic drainage and pure joy.

What a combo.

Comment or message the words ‘LIGHTEN UP’ and I’ll send you a 1 minute survey to help me help you reduce the puff and lighten up 🥰
