Description
When I was first introduced to Dr. Alex Hershaft, I was immediately inspired by his tenacity and passion. Not only is he an animal rights pioneer and founder of Farm Animals Rights Movement (FARM), but he’s also a Holocaust survivor. In our conversation, he details his tumultuous journey from a Warsaw ghetto to eventually immigrating to the US alone at the age of 16. He shares how his early life has given him a unique perspective on freedom and autonomy, which has rippled into his work as an animal rights activist. We discuss the reality of factory farming, getting traction for a movement, and Alex’s refreshing attitude on overcoming adversity. IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: Choosing to be a survivor, not a victim Alex’s journey to becoming a vegetarian (and now vegan) The pivotal moment when Alex noticed parallels between the Holocaust and the abuse of farm animals How Alex and the team at FARM brought the concept of animal rights into the public consciousness The importance of living in integrity and alignment with your values, even if it goes against the status quo RESOURCES: Learn more from me and proven business experts by signing up for one of my many online courses.
