Episode 6 - The Pivot I Was Most Afraid to Share

My Vegan Pivot: How Going Plant-Based Changed My Life Beyond Food (Awareness, Alignment & Intentionality)   Garland Fuller shares a personal pivot she initially hesitated to discuss: becoming vegan in 2019, prompted in part by a wider conversation sparked by Billie Eilish's statement about eating meat and loving animals. She emphasizes she's not telling anyone what to eat, but explains how researching food systems and watching documentaries expanded her awareness of animal welfare, environmental impact, and health, making it impossible to "unsee" what she learned. Garland traces earlier influences—from learning about rainforest destruction tied to cattle farming to reading John Robbins' Food Revolution—and describes key shifts since going vegan: deeper empathy and values-aligned choices, a new relationship with food through gardening, seasons, and herbalism, and broader intentionality in what she consumes (media, relationships, energy), which has reshaped how she moves through the world.    00:00 The Pivot I Was Most Afraid to Share 00:04 Introduction 01:33 The Billie Eilish Spark 03:06 Why I Almost Didn't Share This 04:39 The Origin Story 08:59 Shift 1: Awareness 12:09 Shift 2: Relationship to Food 15:30 Shift 3: Consciousness 19:29 The Bigger Picture   These conversations are here to help you reflect, reconnect with yourself, and move forward with more clarity, courage, and alignment.   ✨ Book a confidential conversation/coaching call: https://tinyurl.com/3vy9vbs5 💌 Subscribe to the newsletter for reflections, resources, and future series: https://tinyurl.com/5yvxmdmz 🔔 Subscribe to the channel and share with someone who may need this too.
