QUOTES
15:30 - Gabrielle: "It's an overall experience. I mean my mind is clearer. I love my life better. I mean, I found my husband. You know, like, I'm not saying going vegan will make you fall in love, but going vegan will remove an aspect of despair and sadness and cruelty from your life. Like you don't have to partake in death."
25:44 - Koya: "I love that you share the tough parts too because I think people see the highlight reel and they think oh I wish I could have that but they don't see the arguments, the frustration, the times when it's not cool that you have to get through in order to find your flow."
27:49 - Gabrielle: "The main key point to going vegan, staying vegan, number one, is as I said, seasoning. But the main thing is to keep it simple. Don't try to complicate it. Realistically work with what time you have. If you have 20 minutes a week to cook, you can still make it happen."
48:32 - Gabrielle: "The job is auditioning, all the time. You got to learn to love it. You got to learn to just be a hundred percent okay with being uncomfortably honest. And, if you can do that, practice breaking down to whatever your truth is."
50:34 - Gabrielle: "I want to just exist in my truth, and I have such faith that if I continue to share my truth and help other people share their truth, that I'll spread my truth to exactly the right amount of people that want and need to hear it."
57:33 - Gabrielle: "The only reason we exist is to go hard in our dreams. The only reason we exist is to bring a passion and possibilities to this world and to share it with others."
