My friend Ashley just posted an interview on The Unintentional Vegan that she did with me about the Vegan Testimonials Project on Ready for Plan B. You can check it out here! I’m so grateful to Ashley for helping with the project and to help spread the word!

Early in 2012 I started reaching out to vegan friends on twitter to ask them to share their testimonials. My hope was that by getting vegans to share their stories we could educate and inspire others and give people first hand accounts to replace perceptions or stereotypes. I’m incredibly grateful to those that have participated. Their stories speak for themselves! If you enjoy the series please let us know!
Ashley Flitter – The Unintentional Vegan
Becoming a vegan was never my intention. When I was in high school my mom was a vegetarian and for some reason I always associated vegetarianism with hippies and college kids, so I started calling my mom a ‘tree hugger’, as if this was the worst thing someone could be. Though at the time I certainly thought it was. Becoming a vegetarian, let alone a vegan, was just not in the cards for me. Or so I thought.
