Today we interview Vegan Squad Coach Alexis Nee on her journey from a miserable corporate finance career and abusive relationship to veganism, coaching, and brand strategy. Alexis shares severe health issues she improved within months of going vegan, and describes a pivotal moment after her dog Baby’s cancer diagnosis leading her from pescatarian to fully vegan, 10 years ago. She explains how personal branding and social media are a powerful form of vegan activism when rooted in authenticity, values, and self-love rather than trends or vanity metrics. Alexis discusses common mindset blocks (imposter syndrome, fear of judgment, perfectionism) and coaches Alex live using “why” questions. And bonus, we announce which previous Podcast Guest Alexis is working with to grow her mission-driven platform and help save more animals!

On today's episode, Alex is joined by Vegan Squad Coach Alexis Nee to interview John about his vegan journey, bodybuilding career, and experience with activism. John shares his early experiences with fishing and hunting, becoming vegetarian at 10 after realizing that meat requires killing animals, and going vegan at 13 after reading a PETA magazine about dairy and egg industry exploitation. He describes feeling isolated and bullied, hiding his beliefs, and later finding community through social media. John shares how bodybuilding began at 15, his experience competing at 21, later hiring coaches, and learning accountability, nutrition, and mindset. He argues for the importance of having a vegan coach and demonstrates how real clients are able to get real plant based results. The episode emphasizes becoming a vocal activist and how you can do more for animals through sharing content and wearing vegan apparel.

Today we are joined by the amazing Nemanja Golubovic (aka @KaleMyName”)! We discuss activist burnout, living in a vegan bubble, and why diverse approaches - from lively vegan restaurants restaurants to confrontational street action - are ALL needed. Nemanja describes going vegetarian then vegan after learning it wasn’t necessary to eat animals, despite growing up in meat-heavy Montenegro with little exposure to vegetarianism. He shares how opening his vegan restaurant became his form of activism, serving many pre-vegans daily, and details his unexpected rise as a content creator through authenticity, reels, and celebrity shoutouts. Nemanja explains that people with many objections may be future vegans, emphasizes using precise language about animal exploitation, and advises activists to educate others about what they wish they’d known, and to align their advocacy with both animal and human rights.
