If you've ever thought to yourself: "Man, I REALLY love hearing Emily talk, but her videos just aren't long enough!" Well, I have good news for you! I was interviewed by VeganLinked: https://youtu.be/OgAYxuzjpHI Hear me talk a ton, get a tour of my 🚌 bus home, and more!
This interview is from back in 2022, and I have to say, I'd answer some of the questions differently now than I did back then. (Don't worry...nothing like "oh actually, BIG NO to veganism" 🙃). I feel I'm in such a different place with my life, work, and advocacy. (Guess that's a good thing to always be growing?)
Hope you enjoy hearing me prattle on for so...very...long... And big thanks to Jeff from @VeganLinked for coming out to my rando corner of Iowa and putting this monster of a video together!

I've loved hearing from you in the comments of my new video https://youtu.be/YaOvqD5UgO8 "Why Vegans WON'T Tell You They're Vegan" I'm simultaneously glad AND sorry to hear it's resonated with so many of you. (BTW, if you want a real "shot of validation," don't miss the section at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YaOvq... 🙃 )

👋🏽 Hi again! I now have a "sneak peek" of my upcoming new video with and without background music. Please give it a watch and then vote on this poll: https://youtu.be/C2IJrAo9Jgg (note: there are a couple glitches where the animations cut out...ah well!)
MORE DETAILS: If you missed my first poll, I'm considering NOT using background music anymore because it can be distracting for some viewers, or even make it harder for them to follow along. At the same time, other viewers do seem to enjoy having the music, and I'll also use it strategically, silencing it when I have a stronger point. But, accessibility of info is always my top priority. SO...I've made the choices on this poll more nuanced. Feel free to also leave comments with additional feedback.

👋🏽 Hi! I'm hard at work on the next video and would LOVE YOUR INPUT on something I've been conflicted about for YEARS: should I continue using background music in my videos? MORE DETAILS & AN EXAMPLE: For some viewers, the music seems to help with staying engaged, and I also use it strategically at times, cutting it off when making a strong point. BUT I also worry it's distracting to some viewers to have music at all. What do you think? For an example, check out this point in my last video: https://youtu.be/ZPE5q92JuWc?si=Hd7iV... It starts with the music, then drops it out around 3:49 for a "strong point" before returning.

This is an excerpt from one of the 80+ studies I covered in my video "The Science of Why People Hate Vegans": https://youtu.be/ZPE5q92JuWc It can be hard for us vegans to handle receiving so much negativity for essentially trying to cause the least harm possible in this world. Understanding that the vast majority of this negativity is not personal, nor driven by conscious malice, can help us calm our own defenses and relate to non-vegans in a different way.
The study this excerpt is from focused on anti-vegan bias stemming from the defensive drive to preserve social values and traditions. Others I covered in my video and article "The Science of Why People Hate Vegans" focus on other drivers like cognitive dissonance (believing it's wrong to harm animals, yet also eating them), the preservation of one's moral sense of self (being a good person), the anticipation of being judged and looked down upon by vegans, and more.
Check out the full video to dive into the science of anti-vegan bias & gain a deeper understanding of the reactions that may seem so very confounding.

What do you think of this quote from my new video? ("The Science of Why People Hate Vegans" https://youtu.be/ZPE5q92JuWc) Other than the intro, it's the only time in the video that I fully break from relaying the findings of the studies and directly address a particular audience. (Click "Read More" for the full quote👇🏾)
The full quote (at this point in the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPE5q... ):
"Most people who eat meat and animal products don’t want to hurt animals and experience discomfort about this conflict. If that’s you, you’re not alone.
We’ve all been taught not to listen to our emotions toward the animals we eat. Feeling that conflict is not something to be criticized—it’s a sign of your humanity. It’s a sign of empathy and compassion struggling against behavior, conditioning, identity, and an understandable desire for belonging."
