From Raw Vegan Fame To Eating Meat – A 22 Year Journey With Sergei Boutenko #24 We Are Already Free podcast

Finding it hard to be the most authentic version of yourself? Maybe family, friends, and everyone you love thinks you’re crazy to want to change? Are you interested in learning about the dangers of dogma, cults, and believing anything too strongly? Welcome, today’s episode is for you!

Sergei Boutenko has gone through a unique journey, from being a devoted and famous raw food vegan for more than half his life, to finally deciding to incorporate meat into his diet. In this episode, Sergei discusses that more than twenty two year journey and the reasons that led him to his current lifestyle. He also explains the benefits he has experienced from eating meat and how it has changed his life for the better.

Don't miss this exciting episode of the We Are Already Free podcast to hear Sergei's story and get inspired to change the things that are no longer serving you. As Sergei says later in this episode, “A brutal identity shift and receiving lots of hate is worth it because I'm here for the truth”

Some of the topics we cover are

Why green smoothies is still the best takeaway Sergei had from his raw vegan upbringing
How wild edibles helped Sergei to eat meat
The powerful lesson Sergei learned while living with David Wolfe
Why it’s so important that we choose challenges regularly
Near the end, the surprisingly simple thing Sergei recommends to live a good life
As always, there’s much more. We touch on names, which is a topic I want to dive much deeper into in a future episode.
