I believe that enjoyment and responsibility go hand in hand. In my kitchen, this means enjoyment and variety without animal suffering; in my life, it means mindfulness towards myself and my environment; and in my work, it means doing what I love with heart and attitude.

We are responsible for ourselves, our fellow human beings, animals, and our planet. Every day, we make decisions: What should I buy? What should I put on my skin? Do I support systems that cause suffering, or do I consciously decide against them? 

My values are clear: humanity, honesty, respect, kindness, and empathy. I believe in the power of thoughts, because Thoughts influence emotions, emotions influence words, words lead to actions, and these become habits. Right?

This chapter began for me with my dog Bella. She opened my heart and sharpened my awareness. I began to take a keen interest in veganism, factory farming, the environment, nutrition, and sustainability.   

Ich möchte dich zum Nachdenken anregen, dich inspirieren. Denn Veränderung beginnt im kleinen, sie beginnt bei uns selbst, sie beginnt jetzt.
