Are you an effective vegan communicator?
Transitioning into a plant-based lifestyle is one of the most empowering personal transformations one can experience. Unsurprisingly then, it sparks a light in those who reap the benefits to advocate and communicate the far-reaching pros. Vegans are, after all, the engine of the movement. Unfortunately, communicating the message of veganism can be extremely challenging. Let's be honest, education about having healthy relationships and communicating effectively is an issue most of the population faces; however, when an ideological difference is palpable, the issue becomes far more complicated. Food is evidently an extremely personal topic, right up there with religion and politics. As advocates for the movement, we find ourselves spending a tremendous amount of time and energy navigating our way through complicated relationships and responding to non-vegan excuses. The inability to communicate effectively can cause us to feel drained, frustrated and even misanthropic.
