A word from the Founder
I am beyong excited to release the first look book for The Honest Whisper. Not only is it an opportunity to showcase some vegan activist fashion, but also milestones for the honest whisper. I am so thankful for such a talented and inspiring community in Toronto, Ontario which has supported all of these accomplishments. I hope you enjoy this book and how much it means to me to have this to share with you.

I see great value in using our skill sets to help others. My production company focuses on creating content that applies pressure for legislative change in the favour of animals, humans and the environment.
The Honest Whisper speaks volumes. It’s always a pleasure to work with and support Laura to help vitalize empathy in those who wear her brand and also those so lucky to read the messages.

"I am vegan for the animals, that’s what propelled me on this journey. Once I saw what was happening in industrialized farming, I could not participate knowingly and willingly in the pain of another being. It’s not that I didn’t like the taste of meat, it’s the quality of life of another being means more to me than a meal or a fashion trend or the latest cosmetic. The cherry on top is that I have never felt better in my life." -Rachael Ancheril Rachael Ancheril photographed wearing a yellow corduroy up-cycled jacket from the honset whisper etsy shop.
