By BeVeganism | February 16, 2024

I magine a world where veganism is not only about what you have on your plate but about living a life, enjoying pop culture, and eating mouth watering food!

Angela Yvonne, the founder of Vegan Pop Eats, wants you to experience that. She began her journey to not eating animals 7.5 years ago. Professionally, Angela is an excellent journalist, a social media expert, and a big fan of pop culture.

She started Vegan Pop Eats to change the perception of Vegan through Conversations, Cuisine and Conscious Living because It's a scoop on the Greenside, and you can have a great life without harming yourself, the planet or animals.

So, if you're curious about veganism and want to see how it can be fun and delicious, join Angela on her exciting adventure! She'll show you that living a good life and eating fantastic food can go hand in hand, even without meat or dairy.

Can you share what inspired your vegan journey and how it shaped your view on veganism and conscious living?

I started my journey because my mother got breast cancer, and I knew it had to be in the food. So, I started eliminating food groups till I was animal-free.

How did the idea of Vegan Pop Eats come about, and why use conversations, cuisine, and conscious living to change perceptions about veganism?

I am a journalist, and when I first moved to NY, I was looking to find opportunities to be on air and talk about Pop Culture and Lifestyle. While I was a TV host on The Lspot lifestyle show, we were able to write and produce our segment, and I was getting into the vegan space. There was and is no one talking about our lifestyle in a fun way. Conversations, Cuisine and Conscious Living are things we do daily in our lives, and it is easier for people to understand when you are transitioning to the greenside.

Your blend of a holistic lifestyle and pop culture in Vegan Pop Eats is unique. How do you merge these elements, and what impact do you aim to have on your audience?

I'm slowly growing my community because of how I deliver and how dope it is on the greenside. I am changing the way they see living animal-free. Veganism has had a bad reputation for separating people through race and wealth, so I am showing that I'm thriving and it's excellent living without harming anyone.

What's been the highlight of having conversations with influential figures on your lifestyle show, showcasing life without meat?

All of the conversations have been highlighted because it is the piece of my vision of becoming mainstream on significant platforms and showing veganism is more than just food

What are the biggest misconceptions about veganism, and how do you challenge these notions?

It is expensive. So I created a series called I Can Feed You Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner for 20 Dollars with two ebooks for transitioning and recipes.

Could you share a memorable experience from your media features or panel discussions that significantly impacted your mission?

It’s hard to chose, I will say that being seen by my peers definitely inspires me to keep going, even on the crazy days,lol

As a lifestyle journalist and content creator, how do you engage and inspire your audience toward a conscious vegan lifestyle effectively?

Through Content and having conversations with them, Like Coach Prime says, I ain’t hard to find, lol

It’s all I ever wanted is to be impactful and to be an asset to my community.
