The problem is we produce so much to feed animals that eventually end up on some people's plates. So if we just cut out the unfortunate animal middlemen, more people would have food to eat.Consciousness happens when you start understanding that your choices affect more than you.ANIMALS ARE ALL SENTIENT BEINGS. Just because people have always eaten animals doesn't make it right.Let's rebel against big business and governments that are telling us to do things that keep us in the machine of feeling bad and needing meds.All of life is learning and it's best learned when in nature, outside, and off screens.We're meant to be in community... even extroverts.Don't be afraid to get in the kitchen. Anything can be made from scratch.Sarah's favorite foods include tofu, fresh produce for juicing, and dark chocolate, like THIS ONE.**The information provided on this podcast does not, and is not intended to constitute legal or medical advice; all information, content, and material on this site are for generalinformational purposes only.
