Customer Reviews
Veganism, business, and beyond
I very much enjoy this podcast. Even if business and veganism aren’t your things, I think there is still appeal in hearing really passionate problem solvers talk about how they want to make the world a better place. Listening to this podcast renews my optimism and inspiration hearing about the approaches new businesses are taking to solving issues our world faces. This show also does a great job featuring women and minority led companies from all over the world.
Really enjoy
I’ve been listening to this podcast and enjoying it. It’s very helpful to learn about what startups are doing in the vegan space to save animals and build a better food system.
