I was so afraid to start my vegan channel a few years ago.
Will anyone watch?
I don't know anything about filming and editing.
How can I do this? I hate being in front of the camera.
Im so glad I got over that and moved forward instead of letting fear of the unknown keep me from starting.
I want to share the YouTube love by posting some awesome YouTube peeps you should subscribe to for recipes and vegan info.
Naki Aya Natural Living - Naki has a holistic approach to vegan life. You can except vegan recipes, what we ate today videos, grocery hauls and videos about self-love and emotional health. She has a vegan starter guide available for purchase here. Check out one of her videos from her channel below.
It was a pleasure having Naki on my podcast earlier this year - Listen to that convo here
Colleen Patrick-Goudreau of Joyful Vegan shares recipes and strategies on how to stay vegan long-term on her channel. I truly appreciate her loving approach to veganism and it was a pleasure meeting her at my first DC Veg Fest I back in 2011.
Colleen is also known for her weekly podcast - check it out here and watch one of her videos below.

Edgy Veg - I enjoy Candice's channel because she's not afraid to show the other side of vegan life. What do I mean by that? She doesn't mind showing the comfort food, veganizing fast food dishes and cocktails. My kind-of girl! Check out one of her videos below

Sweet Potato Soul - Jenne offers healthy recipes and vlogs on how to stay consistent and all the amazing benefits of a vegan lifestyle. She's such a sweetheart and I can't wait to have her on my podcast to share her vegan journey in a few weeks. Check out one of her videos below

Fully Raw Kristina - I love how beautiful the recipes on Kristina's channel are! Even though I have no desire to become a raw vegan (AKA no cooked food), I can still appreciate how appealing and vibrant she makes the lifestyle look. Plus, I love raw vegan desserts and smoothies, so those videos are always fun to watch. I met Kristina in person and she's a real sweetheart. Check out one of her videos below
Vegan, What? On Stephanie's channel you can expect a lot of raw vegan recipes, vegan grocery hauls and videos showcasing some of her favorite vegan products. Check out one of her grocery haul videos below

Honorable Mention: My girl, Michelle from Vegan Cooking with Love! She doesn't make videos anymore but her catalog of recipes is everything.
I hope this is helpful!
