Evolving Ethical Living: My Journey of Becoming Un-Vegan
Join us in this thought-provoking podcast episode as we delve into our personal journey of "becoming un-vegan." We share our 8-year pilgrimage of empathy and self-sacrifice for the greater good, exploring the evolution of our relationship with veganism and animal rights.
Through candid reflections, we discuss the challenges of feeling responsible for the pain in the world and the never-ending pursuit of ethical living, drawing parallels to religious sanctification and the intensity of outrage culture. The episode explores how we navigated the balance between consciousness and intentionality in supporting ethical and sustainable practices.
With a focus on avoiding conventional factory farming practices and seeking out quality animal welfare practices, we share our commitment to supporting local, small-scale farmers prioritizing sustainable farming methods. Organic, grass-fed, free-range, and pasture-raised choices are essential, along with certifications like the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) label for seafood, indicating sustainable fishing practices.
You will gain insights into our mindful approach to consumption, our efforts to avoid non-intentional animal products, and our conscious efforts to conserve water, use energy wisely, and shop second-hand. And truly, how we still am in process of figuring out what works best for us.
Tune in to discover the heartfelt journey of self-discovery and continuous evolution towards ethical living, where the earth has always been a priority, and animals play an integral role in this conscious approach to life.
