The people behind the byline
VegOut is published by Brown Brothers Media. A Magazine Editor leads the editorial direction of each monthly issue. A roster of named writers contribute under their own bylines. Nine editorial columns publish coverage by the team across the three pillars. Every piece is reviewed before publication and corrected when wrong.
Editorial accountability
Magazine Editor
Chris Jeremia
Magazine Editor
Chris is the Editor of VegOut Magazine. She is a writer, yoga instructor, and former national triathlete whose work focuses on what it means to live consciously beyond the mat and the finish line. Her writing examines presence and connection — to nature, to others, and to self. Her first issue as Editor was the February 2026 edition, Longevity, Legacy & the Things That Last, opening with the Ise Jingu shrine in Japan and running through reporting on recycling, burnout, the wardrobe kept for a lifetime. She edits the magazine, oversees the column bylines that publish online, and works with the wider writer roster on commissioning.
Bylines
Writers
The writers below publish under their own names on VegOut. Each writes within and across the three pillars — Eat Better, Live Lighter, and Think Deeper.
Ainura Kalau
Writer
Ainura was born in Central Asia, spent over a decade in Malaysia, and studied at an Australian university before settling in São Paulo, where she now raises her family. Her life blends cultures and perspectives. She writes for VegOut on food, family, and the small daily choices that build a conscious life. Her recipes appear regularly in the magazine.
Cecilia Lim
Writer
Cecilia is in her early 50s and writing through the chapter of life that comes after a long corporate career. A mother of three grown sons, she covers food, family, and the conversations that get more honest with age. She believes the best stories, like the best meals, are meant to be shared.
Daniel Moran
Writer
Daniel writes about psychology, identity, and the patterns that shape how people move through middle adulthood — the specific honesties that arrive in your late thirties, the conversations with parents that become possible only at a certain age, the work of unlearning the version of yourself you performed in your twenties. He contributes to VegOut, Silicon Canals, and The Vessel.
Dania Aziz
Writer
Dania writes about living well without pretending to have it all together. From travel and mindset to the messy beauty of everyday life, her coverage looks for joy and depth in places people don't think to look. She writes across the Think Deeper and Live Lighter pillars.
Graeme Richards
Writer
Graeme is an Australian writer with a long-standing interest in food, sustainability, and how the two intersect. He grew up in a country shaped by drought, abundance, and the constant tension between agriculture and ecology. At VegOut he focuses on sustainable cuisine through an Australian lens — native ingredients, regenerative agriculture, the small choices that scale.
Jeanette Brown
Writer
Jeanette is a coach, writer, and course creator based in Australia. After a long career in education leadership, she now writes about reinvention — particularly the work of building a meaningful second half of life. Her writing blends neuroscience, mindfulness, and journal-based coaching. She writes primarily for the Think Deeper pillar.
Kiran Athar
Writer
Kiran is a freelance writer with a degree in multimedia journalism. Her work explores spirituality, psychology, and love. She writes for the Think Deeper pillar at VegOut, building bridges between people through the small conversations that change us.
Mal James
Writer
Mal is a writer and teacher with a passion for self-development, productivity, relationships, and business. An avid reader across genres, he brings a teacher's frame to writing that helps readers think through their own lives. He writes across the Think Deeper pillar.
Nato Lagidze
Writer
Nato is a writer and researcher with an academic background in psychology. Her coverage focuses on self-compassion, emotion regulation, and the emotional bonds between people and places. She writes for the Think Deeper pillar, with cross-coverage on culture and the social forces shaping how we live.
Roselle Umlas
Writer
Roselle is a former educator whose writing explores what makes people tick — how we think, how we connect, what brings us closer to others. Her work inspires reflection and the conversations that lead to more authentic relationships. She writes across Think Deeper and Live Lighter.
Rudá Iandê
Writer
Rudá Iandê is a Brazilian shaman and contemporary spiritual teacher. His work blends ancestral earth wisdom with modern psychological insight. He is co-creator of The Vessel, a platform for transformational learning. At VegOut, Rudá writes for the Think Deeper pillar on embodiment, intuition, and the inner life of conscious living.

Earlier contributing writers
Over 50 writers have contributed to VegOut since the publication's founding in 2016. Their work remains published under their bylines. Browse the full author archive at Meet the Team.
Editorial columns
Three editorial columns publish under each pillar, plus a catch-all editorial team byline. Each column is produced by VegOut's editorial team and reviewed under the Magazine Editor's direction. The column name, not an individual writer, is the byline because the column's perspective is the publication's perspective.
Eat Better pillar
Table Notes
Food culture and food essays — the space where what we eat gets thought through rather than just cooked.
The Plate Report
Food industry investigation — the prose-form companion to our YouTube food-systems video essays. Supply chains, marketing claims, and the players behind the food on our plates.
Kitchen Field
Practical recipes, technique, and seasonal cooking. The working-chef end of plant-based eating, tested in our kitchen.
Live Lighter pillar
The Lighter Print
Sustainability, climate, anti-consumption, the lighter-footprint side of conscious living.
Slow Closet
Fashion, textiles, and slow-fashion. The wardrobe choices that go with a lighter footprint.
Soft Itinerary
Travel and place. Lighter-footprint travel, the ecology of cities, the small frictions of moving through the world more carefully.
Think Deeper pillar
Inner Practice
Psychology of conscious living — how people change habits, why some don't, the emotional infrastructure of sustained choices.
Quiet Habits
Daily practice, behavior change, mornings, attention. The small habits that, kept up, become a life.
The Long View
Philosophy, ethics, future-of-living questions. What's worth rebuilding, what's worth keeping, what we owe each other and the world.
Cross-pillar
VegOut Editorial Team
News, magazine companion pieces, and cross-pillar features published collectively by the team.
Editorial process
Articles published under a named writer's byline indicate substantial individual authorship by that writer.
Articles published under a column byline (the nine columns above, or VegOut Editorial Team) are produced by VegOut's editorial team. The column name represents the publication's editorial perspective on its subject. Editorial responsibility for column work rests with VegOut.
Every piece — named-writer or column — is reviewed before publication. Sensitive topics including nutrition claims, food-industry investigation, and personal-experience essays receive an additional review. AI tools support drafting and research; they do not make editorial decisions. For full details, see our Editorial Policy.
