You should not use this information to diagnose or treat any health issue without consulting your doctor. Always seek medical advice before making any lifestyle changes. For nearly 30 years, Colleen Patrick-Goudreau's compassionate living philosophy has been propelling plant-based eating into the mainstream and forever changing how we regard animals and treat the planet we live on. A recognized expert and thought leader on the culinary, social, ethical, and practical aspects of living compassionately, healthfully, and sustainably, she is an award-winning author of eight books — including the bestselling The Joy of Vegan Baking, The 30-Day Vegan Challenge, The Joyful Vegan, and her newest book, A Year of Compassion: 52 Weeks of Living Zero-Waste, Plant-Based, and Cruelty-Free. Colleen is also an acclaimed speaker, a regular contributor to National Public Radio, and the host of all-inclusive luxury sustainable, vegan, animal-friendly trips around the world. Host/Producer of Food for Thought Podcast (one of the longest running podcasts), Colleen also co-founded the political action committee East Bay Animal PAC to work with government officials on animal issues in the San Francisco Bay Area. She lives in Oakland, CA with her husband David and their adorable cat Michiko. She can be found at JoyfulVegan.com and on Substack at https://colleenpatrickgoudreau.substack.com. A few words from Colleen about compassion: In light of relentless natural disasters, escalating political violence, deepening divisions, personal challenges, and a fear that our future lies in the hands of those with opposing interests and values, many people are grappling with an overwhelming sense of despair, anxiety, and powerlessness. While I understand these reactions, I don't share them. Even in the face of such challenges, I still have hope. No, I'm not a mythical creature. No, I'm not delusional. Yes, I'm paying attention. I have hope because I dwell on what I can solve rather than on what I can't. I have hope because I don't do nothing just because I can't do everything. I have hope because there's a lot to be hopeful about. When I first became aware of the critical challenges endangering our planet, our health, and the animals we share it with, I immersed myself in every book, article, bit of content offering solutions to make a difference and alleviate suffering. I changed habits and adopted behaviors that had the most positive impact on animals, this planet, and my health. And I've devoted the last 30 years to helping others do the same, culminating in my newest book, A Year of Compassion: 52 Weeks of Living Zero-Waste, Plant-Based, and Cruelty-Free. Rooted in the ethic of compassion, my book's prevailing theme is a testament to the fact that we are all connected, that there is good in this world, and that progress is happening all around us—a message most people aren't hearing enough today.

That's why she's passionate about guiding other determined women who are tired of pain, inflammation, and constant fatigue to reclaim their health through holistic lifestyle modifications.
