Making Veganism Accessible: Insights from Marla Rose
In this episode of Plant-Based Curious, I had the pleasure of speaking with Marla Rose, the founder of VeganStreet.com. Marla has been a vegan for over 30 years and is an expert on making veganism more accessible.
During our conversation, we talk about the basics of becoming vegan, including the cost and accessibility of plant-based food, as well as the importance of self-compassion and courage during the transition. Marla also shares valuable resources for those interested in making the switch to a vegan lifestyle, including her site veganstreet.com, which features a free Guide for New Vegans. We also discuss the challenges of dealing with unsupportive friends and family members, and Marla offered helpful advice on how to handle these situations with grace and self-assurance. We had a great conversation filled with valuable insights and resources for anyone interested in exploring veganism.
