Jane (https://twitter.com/JVM) is a TV broadcaster, author, journalist & now CEO of the animal rights non-profit Jane Unchained (https://janeunchained.com/). She has written four books, two of which were NY Times bestsellers.

In these Sentientist Conversations we talk about the two most important questions: “what’s real?” & “what matters?” Sentientism is "evidence, reason & compassion for all sentient beings." The video of our conversation is here on the Sentientism YouTube.

We discuss:

- Jane's career in media & journalism & now running a non-profit

- Countdown to Year Zero & making the world vegan by 2026

- Near death experiences

- Growing up in "showbiz" New York with Puerto Rican/Irish parents

- Jane's mother gave up meat early

- Thinking the family was vegetarian but eating pescetarian

- Going to different churches as an adventure, but when things got serious, going back to Catholicism

- Dabbling rather than strong religiosity

- "Let your conscience be your guide"

- We all know what's wrong and right. The role of guilt, shame & remorse

- Recovering from alcoholism. 26 years sober!

- Praying every morning "Turn it over - seek guidance". Making the bed every day

- "We don't need to have a definition of a higher power - it's just not me"

- Ego & self-centredness is the source of so many wrongs

- Societal forces claiming that "some suffering doesn't count" are behind most evils. Human & animal

- ...And much more. Full show notes at Sentientism.info
