Today, I am joined by Jodie Barchha Lang - better known as Green Vegan. Jodie is an animal advocate and vegan educator. She created the award-winning documentary short Petting Farm Truth and wrote Nero the Brave Little Bull, inspired by her real-life rescue of a petting-farm calf. She’s also the founder of Sanctuary Share Day, launched on July 5 last year to spotlight nonprofit animal sanctuaries worldwide.

** Host notes** In my intro for Jodie I mistakenly noted January 5, but as you can see above, Sanctuary Share Day is JULY 5th.

My guest, Anna Balser currently serves as the Programs Manager at Woodstock Farm Sanctuary in the Hudson Valley, NY. She holds an MS in Anthrozoology from Canisius College, where she primarily focused her studies on sanctuary regulation, public policy, and animal ethics. She loves helping people question their assumptions about veganism and think more deeply about their relationships with other species. In her free time, she enjoys experimental vegan baking (and eating), road trips, and puzzles.

Today’s episode speaks to the power of sanctuary, why it matters, how you can be part of it, and ultimately, how sanctuary doesn’t just change the lives of the residents but ours too.

Outside of work, karol is often reading about computer hacking and infosec, organizing and performing at events in his local arts scene, or walking with Raoul the rescue dog.
