GOING VEGAN? STAYING VEGAN, WITH KECIA DOOLITTLE, WED. JULY 17 AT 6 PM

On Weds July 17 at 6 pm, Kecia Doolittle will talk about vegan *staying power.* Not just vegan strong, but strong for the duration. Here is what she says:

““Going vegan” is an important step for many of us in our journeys to become effective forces for compassion in the world, as well as a powerful experience that comes from integrating our day-to-day experience with our values. To answer questions about how we can successfully stop eating animals, or thrive while maintaining that commitment long-term, we must understand the interconnected relationships we have with that word, with the animal rights movement, with the world at large, and with ourselves.”

Kecia will share proven techniques. For example, how to apply mindfulness to vegan staying power. “Setting an intention of what we want to accomplish, identifying our self-defeating behaviors, recognizing the pain caused when we resist engaging in those old behaviors, and practicing being non-judgmentally aware of those sensations and then releasing them so we can move forward in our lives.”

And much, much more.

A former New Sector Alliance Fellow in Nonprofit Leadership, Kecia is an animal rights activist, speaker, and consultant. She most recently served as Campaign Director for a multi-state pilot project of In Defense of Animals that explored innovative strategies to support New and transitioning vegans.

She is not afraid to challenge the status quo at the highest levels of government. Recently, Kecia confronted Senator Elizabeth Warren at a campaign event in Iowa.
