Nafsika Antypas

Nafsika Antypas is the Host and creator of the world's first vegan lifestyle series on mainstream television (A&E Network), Plant-Based By Nafsika, that focuses on a plant-based diet and vegan living. In 2016, she created the show that aired on A&E to 70 million households across America, to change the world through food. This has not only sparked the interest of viewers around the globe but has 'planted seeds' helping veganism become more mainstream, a goal Nafsika conveys in her motto, If You Plant It, It Will Grow. Nafsika has appeared on numerous television and radio shows across the globe, and has contributed her writing as well as been interviewed by online publications such as PETA, VegNews, EmpowHER, Insider, Health Digest and more. Due to Nafsika's deep desire to help make the world a more compassionate place, she founded a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization called, People Against Violence in 2014, which offers victims of violence phone counseling and other services. She also designed the uAlert Personal Safety App that same year, serving as an emergency response system to victims of violence. In 2015, Nafsika founded an organization called, The Struggling Vegan, helping people transition to a plant-based lifestyle while strengthening the vegan community. It provides the 'veg curious' with recipes, tips and news surrounding vegan living. In 2017, Nafsika became a certified Health & Lifestyle Coach, helping people make the 'Plant-Based Switch' to a healthier, more compassionate lifestyle. Because, as Nafsika attests, 'You can't be a compassionate person if you're not living a compassionate lifestyle.' Nafsika is most excited about having recently launched her own line of vegan cheeses in the Fall of 2018 under her brand, Nafsika's Garden.
