Episode 5 features Vanessa Sturman, Co-Founder and Co-Director of The Vegan Larder.

On this episode we heard that sometimes the path we set out on changes, and that’s ok. Vanessa has been balancing a career in change management with running a startup, which is no easy feat.

Often, as entrepreneurs, we can get lost in our businesses or be so set on achieving what we set out to do, we can lose sight of opportunities. Or you can burn yourself out trying to be ‘successful’.

Vanessa and her business partner started an incredible physical product business but through that process realized there was an opportunity to pivot to a model that brought them happiness and made more impact.

We talked about how organization, boundaries, and communication are crucial to your well-being. How affirmations can help you survive cold showers (which caused me to cry from laughter at how wonderful this habit of Vanessa’s is).

If you’re wondering about what it’s like running a business and a career, curious about plant-based food or cold showers, tips and advice on organization and communication, or want to feel empowered to get involved in changing racist behaviors and thoughts, give this one a listen.
