Making this decision doesn't happen in a vacuum. It may impact various parts of your life, especially if you live with others. Of course, each person needs to make their own decision. Keeping in mind this topic can become sensitive.

 

Also, when you learn more, it’s easy to become passionate about helping others be healthier, the animals, and the environment. A best practice may be to listen carefully and stay open. Gauge how much the

other person is able to hear, and what’s driving their interest.

 

In addition, you may want to connect with others in your community. People with similar interests may gather on Facebook, Meet-up, or a local group. Many of the larger cities also have VegFest, which are usually

an annual event with speakers, vegan food samplings, vendors, etc.
