Books by Colleen Patrick-Goudreau
The foundation of my work and life is compassion, and I have spent the last 30 years providing resources to make it easy, accessible, and joyful to live in a way that reflects our values of compassion and wellness. I’m the very proud author of eight books, the most recent of which is A Year of Compassion: 52 Weeks of Living Zero-Waste, Plant-Based, and Cruelty-Free, which empowers and inspires readers with 52 impactful, effective actions to create the compassionate world we all imagine for humankind, animalkind, and the ecosystems we all depend on.
