Why Most Vegans Are Ex-Vegans

Colleen Patrick-Goudreau

Colleen Patrick-Goudreau’s compassionate living philosophy is propelling plant-based eating into the mainstream and forever changing how we regard animals. A recognized expert and thought leader on the culinary, social, ethical, and practical aspects of living compassionately and healthfully, her newest book, The Joyful Vegan: How to Stay Vegan in a World That Wants You to Keep Eating Meat, Dairy, and Eggs, comes out in November 2019.

In this engaging talk, Colleen Patrick-Goudreau (aka The Joyful Vegan) will explore the social, emotional, and cultural challenges people face staying vegan (or becoming vegan in the first place) and offer solutions and strategies to stay the course.

Booking signing to follow, as well as a reception featuring vegan desserts from the locally owned restaurant 24 Carrots.
