How do you refer to the food you eat?  A Vegan Life Solution Episode This episode is brought to you by my book, Speak From Within. Review what's inside and purchase it at https://Izoldat.com/speak-book. In this episode, I explore the language we use toward other beings and ourselves and how it affects how we live and what we eat. We all grew up hearing slogans like, "where's the beef?" and "got milk?" But what do they really mean? What are they talking about? Beef refers to a dead cow. Milk, in the case of the commercials, refers to a cow's mammary secretions. I grew up hearing the slogans and words, and I used them too. That created a barrier between me and what I was eating and drinking. It's easier to think of beef as food than it is to think of dead cows as food. How we refer to what we put in and on our bodies matters. Our brains take the information in and either agree with it or turn away from it. The extra bit of distance between our brains and a dead cow or pig makes it a lot easier for many of us to keep eating dead animals. Idiomatic expressions also play a role here. I detail a few of the ones I've modified to make them cruelty-free. Think about, "There's more than one way to skin a cat." When you stop and analyze it, it's disgusting and horribly cruel. But what if you can come up with a different saying that means the same but isn't inherently cruel? I came up with, "There's more than one way to bake a cake," (or pie). What other sayings can we change to make them less violent and cruel? I detail a few in the episode. Feel free to adopt them and use them to your heart's content.

How Lonnie Norwood Uses Music to Teach Black History and Bring this Knowledge to Many Lonnie Norwood, Director of Africana Studies and Conductor of Englewood Neighborhood Choir and Lincoln Park/DePaul Neighborhood Choir. Profession: Music Educator.  Founded in 1956 and inspired by the burgeoning Civil Rights Movement, Uniting Voices Chicago (formerly Chicago Children’s Choir) is rooted in the belief that music is the most powerful vehicle for fostering mutual understanding and respect between young people of all races, ethnicities, socioeconomic backgrounds, religions, gender identities, and sexual orientations. For more than half a century, they have developed programs that embrace the racial and economic diversity of Chicago, making a high-caliber musical education available to any singer who wants it. Accessibility forms the foundation of their signature world-class instruction. Eighty percent of their youth live in low-to-moderate income households, and every year these 4,000+ students participate completely free of charge. Whether they’re just getting started or are already seasoned performers, youth from every corner of the city discover how to make their voices heard through these empowering programs.

This episode is all about relationships. How do we handle relationships between vegans and non-vegans? And how do navigate the cognitive dissonance between the two? I also explore entrepreneurship vs a maturing corporation when I talk about Miyoko Skinner's ousting as CEO of Miyoko's Kitchen, the company she founded. The Board of Directors voted unanimously to remove her as CEO? What are the ramifications to business owners and entrepreneurs if that happens? Last, I review Red Bamboo, the oldest all-vegan restaurant in New York City. I'd love to hear from you if you like this addition to the podcast. It will be up on Fridays as I deliberate on whether or not to combine both shows. Please let me know. Thanks! Connect with Izolda Book a Discovery Call Answering a Question?

A tough love episode on selling without feeling slimy. As I figure out my entrepreneurial path, I learn things and make marvelous mistakes. My latest lesson is about my new company, Creative Earthlings Media. I am helping authors and podcasters who want to write books and make podcasts to change the world.  It's a creation like a song or a painting, but I've found that it's much easier for me to talk about than my artistic creations. Why? Because I'm being of service to others' creations instead of exhibiting my own. And I've had to get over myself because if you're going to be a creator, you're going to have to talk about your creations. Unless you want to sit in your bedroom and create and never show your stuff to anyone, you'll have to talk about it. But how? How do you talk about it and dare I say promote or sell it without feeling slimy? In this episode, I discuss what I've figured out and put to good use to make sure that I talk about my creations with love and truth. And guess, what? I don't feel slimy at all!
