A Kynd Life with Meg Watkins

Meg Watkins has lived in Geelong and the Surf Coast her entire life. Meg has a hospitality background, deep passion for travel and enjoys yoga, surfing and cooking. 

Meg wanted to go vegetarian as a child when she learnt that food contained animals, however her parents wouldn't allow her at such a young age. Meg managed to convince her parents to go vegetarian at age 14. In 2018, Meg went to see the screening of Dominion and has been vegan ever since. 

Meg explored the world in her late teens and early 20s, going on a solo trip after high school which became a journey of self discovery.  Meg became addicted to travel until COVID hit last year, which curbed her travel plans, so she decided to take on "van life". 

Meg recognised her passion for animal protection and rescue and incorporates it into all aspects of her life.  Meg was a Sanctuary Manager during her time at Pete's Mission in north Thailand, as well as a volunteer for her local wildlife rescue shelter. Meg is extremely active in Animal Justice Party, taking on several roles in her regional group as well as in State committees. 

In this episode, Meg shares her passion for a minimalist and eco friendly lifestyle and her motivation for nominating as a Candidate in the upcoming Federal Election.
