Jane Elizabeth (vegan) believes that aligning actions with beliefs profoundly impacts spiritual well-being. “We’re taught sometimes, based on what our parents did or our grandparents, that we have to continue things the same way, or we’re dishonoring them, we’re dishonoring their memory or our culture, whatever it might be. And what I like to say is, our parents, grandparents and their grandparents did the best they could with the information and resources they had. So, now that we have more information and more resources, it’s our responsibility to make decisions based on what we have available now. I feel like, doubling down on encouragement, and support, and offering resources is the best way to really promote change in the world.”Jane’s pragmatic approach celebrates small steps towards veganism. By finding common ground and fostering conversations, she emphasizes collective effort over perfection, inspiring significant change when many do their best. Everyone’s contributions matter in creating a compassionate world. “If you’re somebody who wants to go vegan and you want to make those positive changes, I would say choose one thing first. Like substitute your dairy milk for a non-dairy alternative. I think that’s a great way to start.” “So, volunteering is a great way to give back. So, doing something active, something creative, and something to give back [to your community], I think that really helps to live in the present moment and just to enjoy life.” “My exercise, I run a minimum of about seven miles (11.3 kilometers) a day and do strength training a few times a week. And then of course, I do online school with my daughter, so she is able to do all of her learning essentials. We go out on field trips, we go to different animal sanctuaries and places too, to explore space and science and other things as well. So, it’s a very full life and very fulfilling life. I enjoy it.”
