ENTREPRENEUR, SPEAKER, INVESTOR AND FOUNDER OF THE UK'S LARGEST PLANT-BASED RESTAURANT WITH LOUI BLAKE

What's the best way to jump-start your day?


Get a cold bath or a cold shower first thing in the morning when you don't want to. If you can overcome that, you can overcome anything else that pops up in the day.


What got you into Veganism? How was that journey?


It was a health decision. I had chronic fatigue and burnout. Then one day, I couldn't get out of bed. At that time, I was researching diet to feel better, and I connected with its ethics in a way that I'd never really thought about before.


Going into vegan life, What were some of the challenges you faced in your old life?


The thing that I've gone back and forward over the years has been fashion—buying leather, not purchasing leather. Last year, I was like, I can't buy leather anymore. I was disconnected from the impact it had, and I've now made that connection as well when I've done the research and I looked into it.


Did going through a traumatic experience early on shift your perspective?


In hindsight. Yes. I remember I was 16. One of my friends got killed in an altercation. There were a lot of questions, and for me, it gave me a sense of mortality. Like, wow. It can be over like that. It was a traumatic experience, but it taught me a lot about mortality if I look at it now. It probably caused me to be more proactive in the things that I wanted to do.
