032: Colleen Patrick-Goudreau: Compassionate Living on the Road and at Home
Description
In 1985, only 200 mountain gorillas were left in the wild. Today their numbers are growing thanks to conservation and ecotourism. In this episode, Cheryl welcomes Colleen Patrick-Goudreau, author and founder of Joyful Vegan Trips, to discuss how we can live more compassionately every day.
Colleen shares why labeling food as vegan can sometimes turn people away and how focusing on flavors and ingredients makes plant-based meals inviting to all. She explains how Joyful Vegan Trips creates authentic, satisfying travel experiences with plant-based meals that celebrate local culture.
The conversation also covers the importance of supporting real sanctuaries that put animals first, from elephant refuges in France to gorilla conservation treks in Rwanda. Colleen introduces her latest book, A Year of Compassion, which provides weekly actions to help people live with kindness and purpose.
This episode is about practical, inspiring ways to bring compassion into daily life, whether at home, in restaurants, or while traveling.
