A Gift for the Last Full Moon of the Year ✨ Your "Miraculous Self' Initiation awaits!

This week brings us the last full moon of the year. 🌕

It’s a great time to give yourself a special gift: more of yourself.

To help with that, I recorded a new energy healing for you, the “Miraculous Self” initiation. Find the free, guided process here:

More and more, I’m learning to be myself.

Removing external conditioning.

Other people’s energy.

Mass consciousness.

And finding my authentic self underneath it all.

How to Liberate Yourself from the "Black Friday" Spell of Mass Consciousness Black Friday and the holiday shopping season are great opportunities to release scarcity thinking.

Black Friday is a spell of mass consciousness.

Mass consciousness gets created if many people think similar thoughts and feel similar emotions repeatedly, over a length of time.

It’s okay to not feel grateful this week. Someone I care about died recently, and I'm sad about all the turkeys that are getting killed for Thanksgiving dinner.

I don’t feel particularly grateful, and that’s okay. Forced gratitude is worse than no gratitude.

Positive Vegan News & 2 Vegan-Friendly Community Events This Month Politics, marketing, and growth for good!

My latest Friendly Vegan post is out:

If you are feeling overwhelmed, focus on these 3 things Overwhelm creates a negative feedback loop, but you can break out of it!

I just published my latest post about productivity, and the negative feedback loop between overwhelm and procrastination:

Positive news for lab animals in the US! This month, we got closer to a world without animal testing. 😍

I just published my latest article. In it, I dive into the recent FDA announcement regarding animal testing, and what's going on with the reports that EPA wants to eliminate mammalian animal testing by 2035.

Your Soulful Productivity Starter Kit 🏁 Traditional productivity has hurt your soul. Soulful productivity can help heal it.

Took me over half a year to complete this but I finally got my Soulful Productivity Starter Kit out! 🎉

How to be (somewhat) productive in the middle of a dumpster fire "My story of 2025 is MY story, and I refuse to make it about the people creating this mess. They don’t deserve that power over my life."

My new article "How to be (somewhat) productive in the middle of a dumpster fire" is, surprisingly, about how to be (somewhat) productive in the midst of the current situation.

Marine Lercier, founder of ICARE, is turning 34 tomorrow. And she's celebrating in the best possible way: by giving back to the animals!

If you donate by midnight tomorrow (your time!), she will match your donation (up to $1700).

Cartoon showing a person announcing they are going to McDonald's, out for a cigarette, and going to get drunk, with the other person just responding "OK." Person then announces: "I'm going vegan", while the other person responds: "Yeah but what about protein and calcium and I heard about this vegan couple who had a baby that died so basically if you go vegan you kill babies."

This thankfully hasn't been my experience, but maybe some of you can relate:

Oh, this is wild: AI facial recognition of squirrels!

Oh, I didn't know that about Jamie Raskin, thanks for sharing!

Sen. Cory Booker on how he pulled off his marathon speech: Fasting, Hokas, and a record to break Booker, who is vegan, had his first food in more than a day when he got back to the office: some pineapple and watermelon, according to staff.

Me too! Booker mentioned that he fasted for 3 days and (even more hardcore!) avoided water for 24 hours prior to this event.

He apparently got very dehydrated, to the point of having leg cramps: www.inquirer.com/politics/cor...

Interesting discussion in the comment section!

Sure thing! :)

Love this quote by Kyle Cease:

“You’re not in competition with anyone—you’re in collaboration with everything.”

I've hidden the comment.

Vegan beats US senate record (+ more positive vegan/animal advocacy news) Ranting against injustices while being physically uncomfortable is literally a vegan superpower!

Cory Booker's speech was super-impressive!

And, I'm not surprised that he happens to be vegan.

Ranting about injustices while being physically uncomfortable is literally a vegan superpower.

Cory Booker took that superpower to the next level. And the level after that.

Less thinking, more doing My 24-hour trip to Las Vegas & the joy of doing what you could never do before.

"I'm an animal lover" what people think I mean: dog, cat, mouse, parrot what I really mean: pig, dog, cow, cat, chicken, mouse, fish parrot

Pretty much.

"Be wine, my friend" Don’t get one-upped by a squeezed-out grape!

It makes me really sad when people think the best days are behind them.

What if our best days are in front of us? What if life could continue to get better and better?

Many wines get better with age… don’t get one-upped by a squeezed-out grape!

Yeah, mine is "I care about other people, animals, and the planet" and that makes people even madder.
