How to Go Vegan & Keep Your Friends

Believe it or not, one of the biggest challenges for many people when they seek to veggify, is how to do so without rocking the boat socially. 

How to Go Vegan Socially – Based on Your Personality

Believe it or not, one of the biggest challenges for many people when they seek to veggify, is how to do so… without rocking the boat socially. 

What will Grandma say if I refuse her plum pudding? How will Johnny react if I suggest we skip the steakhouse and go get veggie udon?

It’s a whole psychological principle that I won’t go into here, but it turns out peer pressure slash “what other people” think dictates so much of our behavior. This can actually really thwart many people’s efforts to eat a more plant-based diet.

So what do we do?

The Importance of "Know Thy Self"

In order to decide on the best path for you, let’s take a look at your personality type!

As with so many things, how you go veggie is not a one-size-fits-all.

For instance, if you’re a people pleaser, your techniques for going vegan are certainly going to differ from someone über confident.

In today’s video I’m sharing all the different ways to navigate social situations when you’re seeking to veggify. (Fear not, shrinking violet – you, too, can go vegan.)

How to Go Vegan – Based on Your Personality

I would love to hear from you! What’s your personality type? If you’re already veggified, how did you navigate the sometimes tumultuous waters of “what other people think”?

Wishing you the sweetest holidays, friends.
