HELLO!
I’m Alanna! A smoothie-loving, reishi coffee addicted, THC believing, vegan cooking, hairstylist from a little town in central MA, and the face, creator, and author behind The Vegan FEMPIRE. I live in a little bohemian hippie house overflowing with fifty-something house plants, my beautiful fiancé and our fur babies Ava and Leo. I’ve been a hair and makeup artist for 15 years and love spending my day creatively making people feel their best!
Veganism changed my life. The bright colors of whole plant-based food bring me more happiness than I ever knew possible. I have a blog post about my entire transition into veganism, and my personal experience, you can check that out HERE. I remember in my early newbie vegan days feeling so overwhelmed and unsure of how exactly to go about the transition. I remember the accounts I followed, the blogs I read, the people whose lives seemed to have that healthy GLOW. I wanted it, I envied it. They made it seem so easy. I was overweight, struggling with thyroid and hormone imbalance, and in desperate need of a change.
Change happened! It took time, patience, hard work, and determination. But once I went vegan – I didn’t go back. Here we are 8 years later and all the work has paid off, and I’ve made it my mission to help others who are vegan or plant based curious begin their journeys.
My hope number one goal is to pay it forward, make a difference in someone ELSE’s life, INSPIRE, be that support that I so badly needed on my own personal journey, especially in the beginning.
I hope you learn a thing or two, I hope you’ll find something yummy to eat here, and I hope you leave inspired!
Hang with me & change the world. Remember being vegan is a super power. I’m forever grateful to have you.
Love Always,
A
