My name is Erica Miller, and I have been vegan since October 2019. I grew up in Indiana, and after multiple moves around the country (and even to Australia), my husband and I are currently living in the Kansas City area. We love traveling all over the world and going on new adventures. Our “baby” is a 4 year old sweet but sassy French Bulldog named Ellie.
I graduated from Purdue University (Boiler up!) with my bachelors degree in nursing. I worked as a Registered Nurse for over 10 years, and my latest passion is advocating for the benefits of a plant-based diet.
As a nurse, I could probably count on one hand the number of patients I took care of (in their home and in hospital settings) that were living a healthy life before they came into my care. Nurses spend a ton of time educating our patients and teaching them nutritious ways of eating and healthy lifestyle changes. Never once did I educate them on the benefits of a plant based diet. Until now.
My only regret is not transitioning to a plant based diet sooner.
Why I started this blog
I believe that everyone deserves to know the benefits of eating a plant-based diet. And there are a TON of them! Not only are there a lot of health benefits, but there are ethical and environmental benefits as well. I strive for sustainability and protecting our planet (including all humans and animals). I truly believe that eating a vegan diet, or as close to a vegan diet as you can, is optimal for our overall health, wellbeing, and longevity. And I’ll be here with you every step of the way. 🌱
Whether you have been vegan for years, are just starting a plant-based diet, want to cut back on meat consumption, desire to learn more about incorporating healthier foods into your diet, or even if you are skeptical of the plant-based diet movement, this is the place for you. 😊
Please be sure and read the medical disclaimer, terms and conditions, and comment policy. I look forward to this journey together. ❤️
