It’s not every day that you encounter someone who has devoted virtually their entire life to veganism. Charlotte Cressey, founder of The Vegan Paradigm Shift, embodies this commitment. Charlotte’s journey began at an incredibly young age, sparked by a loving connection with her family dog, Whimsy. At just three years old, she had a moment of realization that the animals on her plate were no different than her beloved pets. This early awareness set her on a lifelong path to advocate for animals, nature, and compassionate living.
By age twelve, Charlotte fully identified as vegan, a commitment born not just from her innate empathy but also from a deep and early understanding of ethical principles. Her journey to veganism was gradual, shaped by intense personal experiences and a natural inclination to question societal norms. Through The Vegan Paradigm Shift, Charlotte seeks to guide others toward that same transformation, one rooted in love, empathy, and an unwavering commitment to kindness.
A Spiritual Connection to Veganism
Charlotte’s vegan journey intertwines deeply with her spiritual path. Raised with a natural curiosity about the world beyond the physical, she felt a unique connection to both the animal kingdom and the spirit realm. “Life is not just this physical, tangible world,” she explains, describing how this early spiritual sensitivity developed into a profound sense of responsibility for all living beings. The vegan lifestyle, for Charlotte, is not merely a dietary choice but a holistic way of life that aligns body, mind, and spirit with the values of non-violence and universal love.
Exploring Eco-Feminism: Reclaiming Compassion for All Beings
Central to Charlotte’s philosophy is eco-feminism—a framework that examines the interconnected exploitation of women, animals, and nature. She explains that in many cultures, women and animals are both marginalized and objectified, often viewed as resources to be used rather than beings to be respected. Eco-feminism sheds light on how the language we use and the cultural norms we follow perpetuate these beliefs, and it seeks to reframe these relationships through a lens of respect and cooperation. Charlotte believes that the domination of animals and the environment is inherently tied to societal gender biases, and by recognizing these patterns, we can foster a more compassionate world.

Research shows that a whole food, plant-based diet combined with regular strength training can drastically improve overall health, from reducing inflammation to enhancing muscle recovery and longevity. Karina Inkster, a vegan fitness expert, embodies these beliefs and benefits. In a recent interview on the Plant-Based Eating for Health podcast, hosted by Kathleen Gage, Karina shared her inspiring journey as a vegan of 21 years, offering insights on fitness, aging, and how to thrive on a plant-based diet.
Karina's Early Vegan Journey: From 16 to 21 Years StrongKarina’s commitment to veganism began at the age of 16, driven by her desire to take a stand against animal cruelty. Her journey started even earlier, at 11, when she went vegetarian. Despite the lack of today’s resources like YouTube or social media, she educated herself by spending hours in libraries, and over time, she realized the deep connections between meat, dairy, and eggs. This led to her full transition to veganism. "Once I connected the dots, I went vegan immediately," Karina explained.
Navigating Trolls and Negative Comments as a VeganWith the rise of social media, Karina has encountered trolls and negative comments about veganism. Instead of letting these interactions drag her down, she has turned them into opportunities for education. "I engage with trolls for my own amusement and to educate others who may be reading," Karina shared. She knows she’s unlikely to change the minds of those actively trolling, but her focus is on the potential impact her responses might have on silent observers.
Her advice for others? Manage your expectations. If engaging with trolls negatively impacts your mental health, avoid it altogether. Instead, like Karina, use these encounters as fuel for content, whether blog posts or educational social media responses.
Authoring Vegan Books: A Passion ProjectKarina is not only a fitness expert but also a prolific author with five books to her name. Her favorite book, The Vegan Athlete, is the updated edition of her debut, Vegan Vitality. While some of her books came to life through her publisher’s requests, The Vegan Athlete is a passion project, focusing on scientific research and practical tips for vegan athletes.
For aspiring authors who feel overwhelmed by the idea of writing a full book, Karina’s advice is simple: start small. "A lot of people get stuck thinking they have to write a whole book all at once. But if you break it down, write one page a day, or a couple of pages a week, you’ll get there."

The evidence supporting the power of plant-based diets to prevent and reverse chronic diseases like heart disease and type 2 diabetes continues to grow. On a recent episode of the Plant-Based Eating for Health podcast, host Kathleen Gage interviewed personal trainer and health coach Kate Galli, who shared her insights into how lifestyle changes, particularly a whole food, plant-based diet, can dramatically improve health outcomes.
The Gap in Nutrition Education for Health Care Professionals
Despite the significant role nutrition plays in managing and preventing chronic conditions, many health care professionals receive little to no formal training in this area. Both Galli and Gage touched on the concerning fact that doctors, nurses, and other health professionals are often left to seek nutrition information on their own, despite the overwhelming evidence that lifestyle choices can make a huge difference in health.
Galli noted that this trend is not just a problem in the United States but is also prevalent in Australia. She expressed her belief that more time should be allocated to teaching health care professionals about the impact of nutrition on chronic diseases. "If lifestyle factors can be 80 to 90% of what prevents and cures our biggest killers, then nutrition should be a priority in medical education," Galli emphasized.
Working with Families and Raising Vegan Children
Galli discussed the challenges families face when raising vegan children in a world where animal-based foods are often the norm. While she has worked primarily with adult clients, Galli shared her concern over the false narratives often given to children regarding where their food comes from.
She emphasized the importance of being truthful with children and supporting their natural compassion. For families considering raising vegan children, Galli recommends connecting with professionals who have successfully done so, as they can offer both guidance and credibility.
Onboarding New Clients: The Importance of Values and Goals
As a seasoned personal trainer, Galli detailed her approach to onboarding new clients, whether they are transitioning to plant-based eating or seeking to improve their overall health. During the initial consultation, Galli prioritizes understanding the client’s core values and emotional motivations behind their health goals.
"Knowing the 'why' is essential," Galli explained. This not only helps clients stay focused but also allows her to support them more effectively when they face challenges or experience a dip in motivation. Galli has found that clients who start with strong emotional connections to their goals are more likely to succeed in the long term.

An Astonishing Fact: Diabetes Can Be Reversed
Did you know that Type II diabetes, a condition often thought to require lifelong medication, can actually be reversed through a plant-based diet? This incredible insight, along with many others, was shared by Peggy Kraus, an expert in reversing diabetes and promoting plant-based nutrition, on the Plant Based Eating for Health podcast, hosted by Kathleen Gage.
In this episode, Peggy dives deep into the power of plant-based eating and how it can transform lives. With a background in exercise physiology and plant-based nutrition, Peggy's mission is to help individuals reclaim their health by making smarter food choices.
A Leader in Reversing DiabetesPeggy Kraus has spent over 15 years working with individuals diagnosed with Type II diabetes, helping them regain control over their health without the use of excessive medication. Peggy’s work with the Wellness Foundation, where she interacted with plant-based pioneers such as Dr. Joel Fuhrman and Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, solidified her passion for whole food, plant-based nutrition.
Her research and real-world experience have shown that people can successfully reverse Type II diabetes through dietary changes. Peggy firmly believes that Type II diabetes is not a lifelong sentence and that it’s possible to eliminate the need for medications through a shift to healthy, plant-based eating.
The Power of Plant-Based Eating for HealthDuring the podcast episode, Peggy shared her own journey into plant-based living, which began in 2005. At the time, there were very few resources available for those looking to transition away from animal products. Peggy's experience working alongside top medical professionals in the plant-based world helped her realize the profound impact of this lifestyle on chronic diseases like diabetes.
According to Peggy, one of the most important things people can do to improve their health is to reduce or eliminate the consumption of animal products and processed foods. In doing so, they can prevent, and in many cases, reverse chronic conditions such as Type II diabetes.
Why Type II Diabetes is ReversibleType II diabetes is often seen as a progressive, lifelong condition requiring medication to manage. However, Peggy explained on the podcast that Type II diabetes is actually a diet-driven disease. By cutting out high-fat, processed foods and embracing a whole food, plant-based diet, individuals can eliminate excess fat from their muscle tissue, which helps to restore insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels.
Peggy detailed how she has seen people reverse their diabetes in just a matter of weeks by making these changes. She emphasized that with the right guidance and dedication, anyone can significantly improve their health and even eliminate the need for diabetes medications.

In a world filled with various dietary choices, the decision to embrace a vegan lifestyle is often more than just a change in what's on your plate; it's a profound transformation that touches every aspect of your life. For Camilla Clare Brinkworth, this transformation has been nothing short of extraordinary.
Camilla's journey to veganism began with a deep sense of compassion for animals and a growing awareness of the environmental impact of our dietary choices. She realized that choosing to be vegan was not just about what she was eating; it was about adopting a holistic philosophy that aligned with her values of kindness, sustainability, and overall well-being.
Chronic pain was a constant companion in Camilla's life until she decided to make the switch to a whole food plant-based diet. Within weeks of going vegan, she experienced a remarkable reduction in her pain levels, particularly in her neck, where she had been suffering from arthritis. The pain that had once been a daily burden gradually disappeared, leaving her with a newfound sense of freedom and vitality.
But the benefits of veganism didn't stop there. Camilla's mood improved significantly as she continued to incorporate more plant-based foods into her diet. She transitioned from being an unhappy individual to waking up every day with gratitude and joy. Her baseline became one of positivity, and she couldn't be happier with the transformation.
Today, Camilla Brinkworth is not only an advocate for veganism but also a living testament to its transformative power. She embraces a lifestyle that prioritizes non-cruelty to animals, environmental sustainability, and individual health. Her journey showcases the incredible potential for change that lies within each of us.
Camilla is also passionate about raising awareness of sustainable alternatives to traditional dietary choices, such as aji flower oil, which she believes can revolutionize the way we approach health and nutrition.

In this episode of the Plant Based Eating for Health show, I have the distinct honor of talking with Dr. Eduardo Corassa, a dedicated health advocate and passionate proponent of veganism, raw foods, and holistic health. His personal journey, filled with transformation and growth, is a testament to the profound impact of dietary and lifestyle choices on overall wellbeing. Dr. Corassa's story begins during his teenage years. As a globally renowned Counterstrike player, his jet-setting lifestyle and unhealthy habits led to a significant decline in his health. Unimpressed by the conventional medical solutions offered, he sought alternatives, eventually discovering the transformative potential of veganism and raw food diets. Initially skeptical, Dr. Corassa found the switch to a raw food diet positively impacted his health almost instantly. He shares his experience with a medically supervised 24-day water fast, a pivotal moment that solidified his commitment to promoting the benefits of his newfound lifestyle. Over the past 16.5 years, Dr. Corassa has dedicated himself to a diet primarily composed of fruits and vegetables. http://www.VeganVisibility.com/120-eduardo-corassa

In this episode of the Plant-Based Eating for Health podcast, I have the distinct pleasure of talking with Jason Demchok, a chef and lifestyle medicine enthusiast who shares his personal journey towards a whole food plant-based diet.
Jason shared how meeting with Dr. Lou, an MD with expertise in environmental toxins and hormones, changed his life by recommending a plant-based diet. This conversation highlights the power of lifestyle medicine and the importance of making conscious food choices for our health.
In particular, the episode focuses on the benefits of fermenting vegetables for improved gut health and overall well-being.
Fermentation is an age-old process that has been used for over 8,000 years to preserve vegetables by selectively breeding probiotics that protect food from bad bacteria. Jason explains that fermenting creates a whole ecosystem of bacteria inside the food, which can lead to improved gut health, digestion, and nutrient absorption.
Fermenting is also an easy and fun process to learn, and Jason encourages listeners to try fermenting at home. He even offers a free lesson to anyone who contacts him after listening to the podcast.
Jason and I discuss the harmful effects of consuming animal products and processed foods, and the importance of incorporating a variety of colorful vegetables in one's diet.
We touch on the addictive nature of cheese, the harm caused by dairy farming, and the role of food manufacturers in creating products that are designed to be addictive. The conversation emphasizes the importance of the microbiome and how plant-based diets can heal the gut.
To start a basic plant-based diet, Jason recommends beginning with greens, organic beans, apples, and cucumbers. He also recommends using whole food dressings such as tahini and balsamic vinegar.
If you're interested in trying your hand at fermenting vegetables, Jason recommends using mason jars with fermentation tops, which are available on Amazon. He emphasizes the importance of cleanliness when fermenting and recommends using organic vegetables for the best results.
This episode of the Plant-Based Eating for Health podcast highlights the power of fermenting vegetables for improved gut health and overall well-being. By adopting a whole food plant-based diet and incorporating fermented vegetables into your meals, you can take control of your health and enjoy the benefits of a healthier gut. So why not give it a try?
