Holly Roberts is a retired Obstetrician-Gynecologist, as well as a lover of knowledge, with a PhD in Eastern Religion & Philosophy. She has been a compassionate vegetarian my entire adult life, since age 13. Although she is well-informed about the numerous health benefits of being vegetarian, her personal calling to live as one has nothing to do with health. Holly simply could not live inflicting harm and death upon any innocent beings.

Blast from the past! ~ Kids are the future of veganism — and pretty much everything else. We talk about their wellbeing fairly often on the show, including this back-to-school episode in 2017 which we devoted to vegan ballet shoes and a cool parenting site.
