Cruelty-Free Cuckoo Clock, by Cherie Hans, MVLCE

posted November 14, 2023 My only brother, Gary, recently passed away. He was only 58. In my eulogy I mentioned our mom’s cuckoo clock. My brother was an audio engineer for radio broadcasting, and as a young boy he took clocks and radios apart to see how they worked. We used to sit and watch […]

The Power of Persistence, by Stanley Bronstein, CPA, JD, LLM, VLCE

posted November 7, 2023 Former president Calvin Coolidge said, “Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are […]

Transitioning to a Vegan Diet: Go “Cold Tofurkey” or Not? by Jessica Langenhan, MD, VLCE

posted October 31, 2023 There is often more than a single route to a destination. The coastal road may yield better views but be less time-efficient than the inland highway.

Farm Sanctuary Life, by Allison Hess, VLCE

posted October 10, 2023 Let me tell you about a friend of mine, Isaac. Charlotte the spider wrote many descriptors about Wilbur in the classic Charlotte’s Web.

Taking Personal Responsibility for Your Weight Loss Program, by Stanley Bronstein, CPA, JD, LLM, VLCE

posted September 26, 2023 Blame is irrelevant. Until we stop blaming others (and ourselves, for that matter) and start fixing our problems, we will never achieve our maximum potential and evolve.

posted September 12, 2023 As I walked through the farmers’ market, I could feel the anger well up inside me.
