So articulate and inspiring!! Great interview!!
Thank you so much for the kind compliments 🎉❤🥰
Listening to this felt like coming home. I grew up near a Vipassna centre, i saw many a person float out of there but never felt like i could cope with silence for that long. Now i know i can, i kinda feel like there is too much to do in real life to justify a pause like that. It feels a little selfish. This lady is awesome and her goal of inspiration has well been achieved. Fantastic interview, smoking is a topic not covered nearly enough. Its embarrassing and distasteful enough for us to hide it. Finger made me laugh, great job, i loved her take. 💚🥑💖
Love this girl,powerfull talk!
Thank you so much! Super kind of you to say 💗✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼

Rice is Nice! Wonderful Grain and Protein that has been successfully consumed for thousands of years.
I agree!! I wish I would have believed that and understand from the beginning. It think the one thing myself and other vegans feel is “I wish I went vegan sooner” the moment you discover all the atrocities and realize you don’t need to be a part of it and can still be healthy 🎉❤
Drive anywhere in America and all you see is Walmart, McD's, Burger Kings, Waffle Houses, and Pizza shops everywhere. Extremely difficult to find healthy foods while traveling stateside!
I travel all over the country and I agree it can be challenging at times but it's getting easier and easier and I absolutely don't have any problem finding healthy food and it's easy enough to plan ahead also. There's also plenty of grocery stores everywhere that have fresh produce. A lot of these chains that you're talking about have beans and greens, etc and ways you can concoct your own meals. Even McDonald's has an oatmeal that's pretty decent in a pinch he just told them to hold the cream. Taco Bell's easy to veganize. I can veganize things in every city, typically there's always an Asian or Ethiopian or Mexican place that has plenty of vegan options also.
Another great interview!
Thank you appreciate that! This interview wasn’t even planned! I met Jeff at AVA in Washington and we were talking at our table eating breakfast and someone didn’t show up for the interview he was supposed to have! So I lucked out and he asked me if I wanted to take over! It was impulsive but turned out great. Jeff is amazing and made me feel really comfortable 💗🔥🙌🏼✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼⭐️
Great video!!!
Jeff is da bomb 💣

You are one of my best friends broski!!! Miss ya ❤

I interviewed here last year, looking forward to releasing that!
I love Dr Goldner!! She is great and also helps humans get rid of their autoimmune conditions and much more 🎉❤
💯
Lawd she's going a genius dating hack to guarantee changing a man into what you want him to be 🌞 👍🏼 She could get more activists on board with that at the forefront😂
Haha I’m telling you it works!!! I think being really clear on what we want is key and then figuring out how to communicate those needs. I dare you to try! Be clear in the profile and always start with how they feel about being vegan! 🌱 😉
If they are not open, you Outreach them, if they are open, you might consider dating them and help them ✊🏼
3:43 Un-analyzed-linguistic-habit. Not bashing her, just providing a term by which to describe that behavior. Too often I say things without really knowing why I'm saying it. Almost as if the _sound_ that I am making is the communication itself.
I like the term and I don't think anyone would think you were bashing her when you're just describing the behavior because this is a behavior everyone does, especially as children regurgitating what their parents are saying. It's interesting when the polarized flip side overanalyzes linguistics to the point of driving oneself mad lol
Sweet thanks for reaching us something ✊🏼🙌🏼💗
I wonder what year she was born …
I was born in 1987 and am an AQUARIUS tehe 🤭
ITS NOT FOOD (ITS GARBAGE OR JUNK OR DRUGS OR POISON CHOOSE YOUR OWN WORDS)
DONT CALL IT FOOD,,, selfmanipulation
> DONT CALL IT FOOD
So-called food. Or use single-quotes: 'food'.
Which part? You mean animals? I agree ☝️ ❤
You are right it’s certainly not called food when it’s poison I agree
I recently turned to meat after more than a decade of vegtarian at the start and vegan towards the end. Sadly, there seems to be something in plants that causes me problems. I had spent the past 2 years doing various experiments with vegetables, grains and fruit, but the problems would not go away. I then started experimenting with eggs and that helped somewhat. That caused me to try and drop most of the vegetables, fruit and grains and that seemed to help a bit more. I then eliminated anything other than animal products, and most of my problems have disappeared in the past 6 months. It seems that not everyone can successfully following the same path, at least I currenrly seem not to tolerate plants. Sadly, I've lost friends because of this, but at least I have recovered my health.
Best of luck to everyone :)
First of all vegetarian has nothing to do with veganism. And it doesn't sound like you tried a vegan diet and vegan isn't even a diet it's a philosophy and if you're absolutely vegan which you clearly weren't then you would find a way you would reach out to a lifestyle medicine practitioner to resolve whatever issues you think you were having that we're related to your diet. And it's important to know that clearly you didn't know what you were doing because you've never done it before and you still probably don't know what you're doing because even those who've been doing it for many many many many decades are still learning even lifelong vegans still learn how to take things to the next level. But clearly you did not go into this trying to be a vegan you went into this trying to do a diet. Starting off as a vegetarian is less likely anything to do with ethics and really nothing to do with health because it's not even a very healthy diet generally speaking. So your inability to succeed at this and what you're saying is consistent with what others have said that have claimed to have "tried". There's also many other variables like time of day of eating and of course what you're eating, sleep, not doing drugs, social support, xcetera. Various experiments you say, people aren't good at experimenting on herself typically. That's why it's probably better if you're having problems to consult with someone like I dietitian or nutritionist for a whole food plant-based doctor, ideally whoever you consult with practice is lifestyle medicine.
It's unfortunate when people misinterpret their body only to do something that's going to make it worse. Drug addicts do this all the time. And of course food addicts do too.
@@VeganLinked I stated that before turning to animal products, I was vegan. Perhaps you are saying that I did not do it with the right attitude, which is possible, but then we are getting into cult/religion territory. I was pretty convinced at that point that veganism was the most healthy way to go, yet my health kept getting worse. That was a period of approximately 6 months and my healt was at it's worst at the end of that period. I've never done any drugs other than alcohol (drank somewhar heavily around 25 years ago but have not consumed a lot of alcohol in the past 20 years and have totally abstained for the past 4-5 years), tobacco for 3 years (quit 20 years ago), and coffee (quit that about 6 months before giving up on veganism). I have never been overweight and never had problems with kicking habits if I wanted or saw a reason to do so. I am not bashing veganism, I am simply saying that it seems like the one thing you are promoting may not work for everyone. The same would likely be true with many different lifestyles.
@@cbdpI would love to know more details of you care to expand! I have a hard time believing that eliminating all plant products and switching back to animals is what helped you. There would have been key nutrients missing from your vegan diet. Were you focused on wholefoods or junk food? Did you cook yourself or eat out? There are so many factors we can look at before assuming the lack of animal protein is what you were missing. As Jeff mentioned, did you seek out any professional help?
@@VeganBOSSLabrosse Thank you for asking, but I tried everything the local healthcare system offers and got nothing at all out of it. Perhaps it was because they had their mind on the pandemic, perhaps because all the tests they did showed nothing out of the ordinary and I looked healthy compared to many. It is very unlikely that it was due to missing nutrients which could have been gotten from plants, as eating different plants and grains did nothing of significance to improve my health. I experimented a lot with supplements too, none of which did anything noticably positive, but gave overly high readings for certain markers on the tests, so I was told to stop taking those.
At this point, after having regained my health by moving into consuming animal products only, I won't see any of the healthcare people again, for as long as my health stays this good. I will simply carry on doing what works, for as long as it works. I intend to keep trying to reintroduce vegetables at some point, but will not stick to them if my health deteriorates again.
I refuse to make myself unable to fuction/work or kill myself for the sake of an ideology. It would have been nice if it had worked and I wish it had, but it did not so I won't try it again any time soon.
We are not all born vegan unless breast milk comes from a plant.
breast milk is vegan, obviously. Veganism is about not exploiting animals. A mother feeding her child from her breast obviously isn't a problem with veganism. Please stop wasting time, life is too short to play stupid
If you drink your own mothers milk, you are still vegan! Like come’on! We are all born vegan because no baby would chase after an animal to chew into them.
Drinking our own mothers milk … how does that make us non-vegan?
@@VeganBOSSLabrosse Is your mother a plant or an animal?
@@VeganLinked How in the world is breast milk vegan? Not exploiting animals is a fine cause, but it is not the healthiest choice.
Started the carnivore diet a week ago exact, and this pops up hahahaha
What is funny about starting a death based fad diet exclusively on body parts, organs and secretions when it is completely unnecessary?
The Universe is clearly speaking to you. Stop clogging your arteries and messaging your body up. Heal yourself with plants 🌱
Babies want milk. Real milk direct from the tap. Vegan is great, Carnivore is great. To each their own. Everyone should be required to be a soldier 💪
No. It's not "to each their own" when victims are involved. Did you even listen to this? Carnivore sucks so bad for the trillions of animals bred into existence for the single purpose of suffering in captivity until they are mercilessly killed. I hope you will become aware of the abuse of animals, it breaks my heart.
> Everyone should be required to be a soldier
Are you talking about 'conscription'? Murray Rothbard described that as ~"enslaving people into armed battalions".
@@KerriEverlasting yayayayaya. First stop the killing of humans, then we can worry about animals. Oh, but wait, you can't because your not a soldier. Priorities on this planet: air quality, water quality, human life,....then all the little details. The super rich will not allow you to stop war with only words. It will take an even bigger war. Focus. Prioritize.
Vegan is great which means carnivore is not great because vegan is an option and the only non-violent one. Carnivore is the violent option so there's nothing great about that unless you're a zoosadist
What kind of "Dr" are you to say such rudimentary benighted gibberish?
Mmmmm, beef good...!
Only if you're stupid
If I wasn't already a vegan, I would go vegan right now
Awww thanks!!! I hope it inspires others to do the same ✊🏼🙌🏼🙏🏼🌱🔥
Humanity is in darkness still that's why they eat other sentient beings
We must be the light and lead by example ✨⭐️💫
Love these interviews with inspiring women sharing their stories! Thanks Jeff!
Thank you for listening 🎉❤✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼
😂wow so right, before you go vegan nobody cares what you eat, so true
Nobody cares what I eat even after being vegan. Lol
exactly. it's like everyone expects you to eat like them
It’s the weirdest thing… you could be feeding your kid McDonald everyday and no one will say anything…. You start feeding them healthy and green and all of a sudden people are concerned… it’s so twisted
Imagine having the concentrate on breathing because you realize you have sleep apnea which has been killing you slowly for 10 years! Where sleeping becomes impossible until a machine arrives. I've been vegan for 12 years and have been diagnosed with sleep apnea twice. Once before I went vegan and another 2 days again. I lost everything years ago including a sleep machine I couldn't afford. I lost weight and thought the sleep Apnea was gone too, but it was hidden. I feel betrayed, I thought for a moment Veganism could have hurt me. What brought this to the surface was extremely high blood pressure and a ministroke. Iftbrought me to medical system for relief, but now it makes perfect sense. I don't need proteinand limit carbs as my doctor ordered. I need Air, I need 17,000 good breathes during the night. I don't need pills which I knew was wrong, but perhaps help keep me stay alive until I figured it out. I am 60 years old and since learning. I resisted to listen to this video, but since I watched it Michelle is amazing! Thank you for the interview!
hello Me. So many things she said is true
That’s really sweet of you to say! Thank you 🙏🏼
I hope you can breath better now?
@@IamMichelleLabrosse11 chip shortages are making wait. I have to hang in their until a sleep apnea machine if available.
It depends upon what your own body attacks, when I was in a wheelchair and could barely sign my paychecks as my hands could hardly move, I had no problem getting off of meat. There is no meal more delicious to me than the ability to use my hands and to walk.
Some people do not think this far and have their heart attack and keep eating to their own demise. My brother-in-law did this. But others do wake up, my husband saw I regained my functions and did not think it was enough for him to try, then he got diagnosed with Prostate Cancer, already Stage 4, surgery was the only option to beat the cancer. After the surgery and he got home, I told him you are going now to eat vegetarian as it is the best way to get well and stay well and to help your immune system to fight off any cancer cells the doctor could not stop going into the blood stream. He agreed. He was totally surprised how delicious the food was. He regrets not going vegan with me.
Thanks so much for sharing! Great job taking control of your health and being persistent with your husband!
Congratulations on being able to suck yourself out of the matrix!! Can I ask you what happened and why you were in a wheelchair? As I mentioned, we are a product of our environment so often times, the people who don't question it were never thought to in the first place. One of the things that most vegans I know always say is " I wish I had gone vegan sooner" - including me
So glad I found this channel
Thanks ❤️
If you're having a bad day... here you go... 52:52
Haha 😂 thanks for sharing that moment xox
Hahaha this made me laugh so much! Totally forgot about that 😅
33:00 HEY Marshall Rosenberg's stuff! That guy was legit. He's dead now. I don't recall hearing him say he was influenced by general-semantics, but I heard him say something that was straight out of Science and Sanity, so either he was familiar with it first-hand, or had interactions with someone who did, or maybe he was just a g.d genius.
Marshall Rosenberg is awesome and I learned so much from him. I love his TH-cam videos on the Giraffe and the Jackal
Factz
Equanimous! Thank you, I had forgotten about that word❤
Right?! It’s such a powerful word when you start applying the principles ❤😊
She's inspiring me to be better with my diet and to quit coffee ☕️
Yaaasssss!!!! Improving our diet is always a win and there is big debate with coffee but anything that keeps you addicted and wanting it everyday is probably not beneficial for you (especially as a stimulant when we already live in a hyper stimulating world!)
@VeganBOSSLabrosse thank you so much for responding! Do you drink coffee? I'm not sure if I should stop hehe
@@mareezy moderation... However, the Chinese have been drinking tea for thousands of years. They also walk after eating unlike the western world
I am vegan too. I do have Fibromyaglia but after i became a vegan ot got so much better. I am martail artists and teacher and mine was the same, physical and mind wise i was doing pretty good but diet and stress. Food is medicine, herbs and seeds really can heal our conditions. Back then we did not have tilhis much diseases. Great intervew.
That’s amazing! Fibromyalgia is also an autoimmune disease that is fairly comparable to MS! I am super proud of you for making it happen for yourself and looking at the path less walked 🎉❤✊🏼✊🏼⭐️
I feel that going vegan is a huge part of it but if we don’t address ALL lifestyle factors - it will be harder to find balance
Thank you. I am so proud of you as well. Sometimes leaders like you or I, we went thru by our experiences and we woke up by pay attention around us, not just go with flow or following everything. Eyes opening oh ok moments def let us grow. I love what you do and keep doing it. Our world and people will be more happy and healthy and animals wont suffer by our houman egos!!
indeed there is a lot more to help than just being vegan. I've been spending a lot of time contemplating all of the other variables in regard to health like in lifestyle medicine the six pillars of Lifestyle medicine and how quintessentially it all points back to love ❤️ thanks so much for responding these comments you're amazing!
For Fibromyalgia, check out two books by Anthony William: Medical Medium and Cleanse to Heal. I’ve been on a whole food plant based diet since 2012 but didn’t heal my gut issues until I read those two books. With MS and Fibromyalgia, the culprit is viral loads and their neurotoxins. Going vegan you remove most of their food sources but there are also heavy metals that need to be removed as well before you can truly heal.
So beautiful ❤
Thank you! Which part did you like best or maybe even learned from? ❤
Old soul.
This woman is 100% inspirational. She is so super! Duper fantabulous! Thank you for the interview!
Thank you so much for saying that!!!! What inspired you the most? 🙃😇💗
@@VeganBOSSLabrosseWhat inspired me the most is your constant need to help others starting with the animals. I really appreciate your response. It's awesome that you know three languages... You managed to rise above from multiple obstacles, MS. and Your hometown. Thank you for what you do!
14:00 Enjoyed that 4th wall break via the laughter.
Awww thank you!! Laughter is medicine 😅😂🥰😆
I really enjoyed listening to this. The only part I don't agree with is the fact she refuses to eat with anyone that is not vegan. It's better to lead by example and let people ask you about it. I can't imagine cutting my friends or family out like that. There is always something on the menu that can be found to eat or eat before you go and just have a salad.
vegans don't eat people though
lol
@@VeganLinked edited 😃
@@MrDONTEATUS :)
Just to paint perspective, the Liberation Pledge served me for many years. Now on the other hand, I spend much more time integrating myself with non vegans but not around food. My people overall do not have any problem eating vegan with me and I wouldn’t want to surround myself with anyone who can’t at least accommodate one meal to be cruelty free for themselves!
1995- a very long long time ago... hahaha.
This vid is from 2022, why are we only seeing it now 😅mmmmmhmm
because I am only one person and I can only do so much
Hehe ok 😅 that makes sense 😜
I have over 70 if I had to guess that I haven't released yet that I've already shot half of which are edited but I still need to packaged for publishing and the rest I still need to edit and I am about to go to another conference (National Health Association Conference 75th anniversary) and be derailed from the labor of editing and rendering and publishing only to acquire more interviews I will need to prepare to shoot, archive, edit, render, publish. Then I have one more event, Mr America, before I slow down. And when I have everything edited I'll consider releasing more than one a week. Right now I'm trying to limit the long term and lifelong vegan interviews and release more of the newer to veganism people. So, like at this upcoming event, if I shoot 25 interviews I'll try to release most of the e.g. shorter term vegans first. That's just a simplistic overview of some of the things I have to do and think about...
@VeganLinked wow. A looooooooot of work. You need some volunteers to help out! 😊
Jeff is really good with his edits! We had a much longer interview. I can just imagine how much time it takes for each video he produces!! ❤
I don't think we're born vegan. We're born lacto. Then we transition.
We are absolutely born vegan. The philosophy of veganism is to not exploit animals and a mother breastfeeding her child is not exploitation it benefits both mutually. There is no animal exploitation in this mother child relationship because the child is obviously a direct extension of the mother. And if the mother is vegan she is extending and nurturing this philosophy in the rearing of the child. Children have a predisposition to not want to harm animals when they do not they tend towards violence and zoosadism, psycho sociopathic behaviors
What is your understanding of veganism? 🙃⭐️
