Daniel Bovalino on Creating a Compassionate Cycling Culture Through Vegan Athletic Apparel
Summary: <br> <br> <br> <br> Today on the show we're excited to share a conversation with Daniel Bovalino, the founder and visionary behind <a style="color: #0000ff;" href="http://www.veganathleticapparel.com">Vegan Athletic Apparel</a>, a new company dedicated to creating the most sustainable, ethical, functional, and stylish cycling clothing. After hearing about this new company started in Australia, I knew it would soon be huge and profound in shifting the paradigm...perfect for Thought For Food. This was a really engaging talk that covered a lot of fascinating topics, including:<br> <br> * How Daniel got into cycling<br> * The story behind the creation of Vegan Athletic Apparel<br> * What it means to be an ethically-driven company and what the fashion industry looks like<br> * Daniel's foray into veganism and nutrition and how it has impacted him as an athlete<br> * His goal for changing the culture within cycling to become more compassionate and sustainable<br> <br> As a cyclist, I was really drawn to Dan's philosophy towards the sport and especially the clothing component. I look forward to riding with Dan and the Aussie vegan cycling crew one day! NOTE: This is not a paid endorsement for Vegan Athletic Apparel, nor are they a sponsor for the show. I just really really believe in this company and what they are trying to achieve.<br> <br> Hope you enjoy this episode, and go eat some plants!<br> <br> -Jackson and Aaron<br> <br> <br> <br> Do you get enough protein?
