rhian-hy

Vegan YouTuber:
Rhian HY

Rhian HY is a vegan YouTuber who knows how to keep it real with her followers. She was raised vegetarian but later became vegan, and on her channel, she is open and honest with her followers that while she is vegan, she isn’t militant and does make mistakes - just like everyone else. 


“And while ideally the world would not be set up the way that it is with regards to, you know, cruelty basically to animals, I do think there are times where you can only do so much, especially when it comes to being pretty ill and need to take medication” Rhian said in her YouTube video titled, It’s me. The bad vegan


Her vegan Instagram feed alone will inspire you to get a tattoo or two (or ten), and she is filled with recommendations on all things beauty, including her favorite makeup brushes, eyeliner tutorials, and so much more. Be sure to check Rhian out!

quietcoolkid

Vegan Hairstylist:
Amanda aka QCKND

Who is QCKND (and how the heck do you say her name)? Amanda, aka QCKND, is the host of “Tattoo Talk Tuesday” and a popular YouTuber. Her name QCKND stands for Quiet Cool Kid No Doubt, and she started to gain a small following at the age of 14 with her blog posts before taking to YouTube. This hairdresser is covered in tattoos, which she of course talks about in her weekly YouTube episodes.

sorsha morava

Vegan YouTuber: 
Sorsha Morava

Sorsha is a vegan YouTuber who hasn’t used a single animal product in over eight years! Her videos are certainly comical, and she also takes time to make recommendations for anyone who is thinking about going vegan but isn’t sure where to start. For example, she recommends Angela Roi for cruelty-free handbags, zinc to support your immune system, free books about health and veganism, vegan transition tips, and so much more.

rachel ama

Vegan Blogger & Author:
Rachel Ama

Rachel Ama is a London-based vegan blogger and cookbook author who not only kills it in the kitchen but also slays in the gym. That’s right - in addition to being a vegan author, this badass lady also finds the time for fitness - including Muay Thai, a Thai form of boxing that utilizes your fists, elbows, knees, feet, and other body parts as weapons. In addition to her vegan Instagram account, be sure to check out her cookbook: “Rachel Ama's Vegan Eats: Tasty plant-based recipes for every day.”


Ama’s vegan Instagram has almost 110,000 followers. She shines inside and out, and we’re drooling over every single dish she posts.

genesis butler

Vegan Activist:
Genesis Butler

The next inspiring plant-based gal on our list is Genesis Butler. This 12 year old (yes, you read that right - 12) vegan activist is making a huge statement amongst the plant-based community and beyond, regardless of her age. In her first TEDx Talk (and hopefully not her last), Butler focuses on and highlights the direct correlation between meat consumption and the environment and how ultimately cutting back on animal products will help aid the damage done to the planet. She gracefully lays out some pretty scary figures, but in a charming and digestible way. 


In addition to being one of the YOUNGEST people EVER to give a TEDx Talk (she did this when she was only 10 years old), she also had the courage to encourage the Pope to give up animal products for Lent and has even started a non-profit - Genesis for Animals, which financially aids those who devote their lives to rescuing animals. She has also received numerous awards, including:

  • Vegan Kid of the Year award from Vegans Are Cool
  • PETA’s Kid of the Year Award

Legend! Be sure to check out her entire TedX Talk

nisha voraLawyer Turned Vegan:
Nisha Vora

Plant-based food ain’t boring, and Nisha Vora, a vegan Instagramer, YouTuber, and blogger has come to prove this time and time again. She wasn’t always a vegan advocate, however. Let’s back it up a bit!


Vora is a woman of all trades. She was an attorney before discovering her love for food, and now resides in Brooklyn, New York where she shares all of her delicious recipes with vegan-food loving followers - like us! Her journey began when she decided to backpack and travel for six months. As traveling tends to do, she discovered the importance of living a life “with adventure, laughter, and authenticity.” 


She soon stopped practicing law when she became vegan and focused her energy into opening Hungryroot, a food startup where she directs and manages the mouth-watering photographs - she even has some handy guides to food photography on her blog, if you’re so inclined - Rainbow Plant Life

Vora has been featured on a number of publications, including:

  • Veg News Magazine
  • Well+Good,
  • Buzzfeed
  • Canva

Check out her vegan Instagram (which has over 387k freakin’ followers) for more plant-based recipe ideas.

haile thomasPlant-Based Author & Vegan CEO:
Haile Thomas

Haile Thomas proves to all entrepreneurs that wisdom doesn’t necessarily come with age. This 18-year-old is the youngest person in the U.S. to become a Certified Integrative Health Coach. In addition, she also wrote the popular book “Living Lively,” a plant-based cookbook featuring a plethora of delicious dishes including:

  • Straight Fire Mac N’ Cheese
  • Korean Jackfruit Sloppy Jill

For those of you with a sweet tooth, her cookbook also features healthy desserts, like Thomas’s Strawberry Tahini Coconut Cookies! All of her recipes are egg, dairy, and gluten free, and her book also features recipes from other bomb women coming up with some pretty delish concoctions, including Maya Penn and Luisa Gaffga. 

Her wellness journey began when her father developed Type 2 diabetes when she was only eight, and she has continued to inspire everyone with her conscious living, healthy, and wellness messages.

As if she couldn’t inspire us more, Thomas is also the founder and CEO of The Happy Org (Healthy Active Positive Purposeful Youth), a non-profit that strives to make affordable and eventually free plant-based nutrition and culinary education in at-risk communities. She started the organization when she was 12, and since then, she’s been featured in a number of publications, including:

  • CNN
  • Teen Vogue
  • Experience Life Magazine
  • NowThis
  • MTV
  • BuzzFeed

Instagram users have obviously taken notice of Haile, as her vegan Instagram has almost 60,000 followers!
