Thank you for the invite to be part of this community. I look forward to learning together.

Hello, Vegan Squad Community! My name is Caitlin and I was vegetarian for 2 years and will hit my 7 year Vegan Anniversary 9/14 🎉 My special interests include, but aren’t limited to: animal and human rights, environmental justice, beaches, being a dog and plant Mom, Art (I like to paint and exhibited in Art Basel in 2017 & 18), hip hop, being a foodie, gym girlie, traveling ✈️, and all things NYC (it’s not a city, it’s a nationality 🗽😉). I also so happen to be a psychotherapist (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) with neurodivergence. In my private practice, I specialize in working with adults with ADHD (and co-occurring MH issues) and teaching them how to use mindfulness and plant-based nutrition to reduce their symptoms as well as improve their mood and functioning. Currently, I am licensed to provide psychotherapy for clients residing in NY and FL, and can provide non-clinical coaching in all 50 states. If you or anyone you know may be interested in services, please reach out to me directly and feel free to check out my website to learn more! https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists/caitlin-cherner-new-york-ny/958611 Looking forward to connecting and collaborating more with fellow vegans ☀️🌱💚

New to the community. As was stated in the intro video, the hardest part about being vegan is living in a non vegan world. So here I am. I’m 42 living in Arizona. I run ultra marathons, I lift heavy, I bake and cook all my own vegan food and have for a long time. I work as a nurse, both in the hospital and as a hospice nurse part time. I also volunteer at an animal sanctuary here in Arizona and I involve myself in as much community activism as I can, whether that be protests or feeding the homeless healthy vegan meals. I’ve lived all over the US and in several other countries. I was a nomad living out of my car for many years. I’m a minimalist and environmentalist. I’ll be running across Iceland in August. I’ve never been to Iceland, but it looks like it’s a lot more vegan friendly than I originally thought. If anyone has been to Iceland and knows of great places to eat or a sanctuary to check out I’d love to hear it.

Hello everyone! 👋 Thank you @John Thomas Vegan Squad Coach for the invitation a few months back; life got in the way, but I am glad to finally be here properly. A little about me: I am an author of several books, content creator, vegan abolitionist & activist. My belief is simple; it is not our place to use other animals. We should protect those weaker than us, not exploit them. I am also engaged to the most wonderful person, who shares the same abolitionist values; we actually met at a cube of truth. 😊 A bit more about me following the intro format: I am based in Novi Sad, Serbia. My current goals are stabilizing my health; I have Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, & building my vegan book authorship into a sustainable income. Support I would appreciate: any encouragement or feedback as I develop & share my work in that space.

Hello, y’all. I’m Tristan, (they/him), I live in the Florida Panhandle area, and have been here for a decade so far. I just turned 40 last month, I’ve been a vegan for about 5 years now, and xVx (vegan straight edge, aka radically sober vegan) for over 2 years. I’m a medically retired disabled combat veteran who focuses on antiwar activism and community mutual aid these days. After figuring out several health issues and imbalances in my body caused by my time in the US Army with my primary care provider and several specialists, I finally got to a point earlier this year where I was able to take control and get back into the gym. I’m stoked to be seeing big positive changes in my body, my physical health, my mental health and also hearing others around me notice the changes too. I am eager to continue this journey with a solid support structure, and I’m very happy to be invited to this community. I can’t wait to grow with y’all!
