One Planet Parent is written by Toria Sheard, a frugal, minimalist, vegan, world traveller and life-learner who thrives on deconstructing norms and tearing up the rule book of conventional living. She is on a journey to learn more about how we can enjoy our best life, but one that cares for and respects the planet and all the creatures that call it home. Toria is a writer and journalist currently living in Sheffield, England, with her partner, Tom, and their nine year old son.
