Episode 115: Ana + Matt & Redefining Success

“Think about what you want your life to look like. To me success is waking up in the morning without an alarm, enjoying my coffee and a book, doing my thing and making people happy.”On this week’s episode of the Eat Green Make Green Podcast, I chat with Ana Arlacón and Matt Davey. Ana and Matt are the duo behind the popular VedgeTalk Podcast, VedgeTalk Español Podcast, and vegan food and fitness channel VedgeLife. Both Matt and Ana have been on the show individually previously, Episode 18 and Episode 65. The last time I saw Matt and Ana in person was days before they left everything behind them and set out for a year of traveling in a van. We talk all about their van life travels, the best experiences they had while traveling in the van, their favorite places they visited, the best and worst places for plant-based food, some van life hacks, the different perspectives they gained from seeing middle America and other places, why they decided to settle in Portland, Oregon, how the pandemic has affected their work as gig workers and influencers, how they’re taking advantage of their extra time at home, and why success is all about how you define it.
