Today I had the honor and joy of talking with The Joyful Vegan Colleen Patrick-Goudreau. Colleen is a "recognized expert and thought leader on the culinary, social, ethical, and practical aspects of living compassionately and healthfully, Colleen Patrick-Goudreau is a speaker, cultural commentator, podcaster, and award-winning author of seven books" plus much more. Colleen is as much of an inspiration as she is a joy to be around. Join us today for a tantalizing conversation with the "Food for Thought" podcast host herself, Colleen! Plus, listen to see how you can enter to win a copy of her book.
Colleen’s latest book The Joyful Vegan is an extremely well-written book with not only advice on how to stay vegan, but advice on how to be a good person with integrity to yourself, defining your core values, learning how to communicate, learning how to stick with your goals and much more. This book goes beyond its title with Colleen taking you for a delightful journey for your mind, heart and soul. Colleen is intelligent, heartfelt, kind, compassionate – she’s defined her why and it shines through the work she does. I loved reading about her life experiences that were sprinkled in and finding moments of similarity. I really think this book is great not just for vegans – and not just for staying vegan- but also as a little guide for life. I highly recommend it. I loved the whole book. Colleen offers sound advice and ability to correlate and synthesize data is a real treat for the reader.
