In this New Year’s episode, Nicole sits down with Stephanie and Tiffany, two of the founders of Revolution Philadelphia, for a heartfelt and inspiring conversation about grassroots activism. They share how they got started, the campaigns they’ve taken on, and why community and friendship are so important in the fight for animals. This episode is a reminder that anyone can get involved — and that real change starts with people who care.
Tiffany Stair has been a lifelong animal lover and nurse for over 20 years. She went vegan in 2017 after seeing a series of clips from the documentary Earthlings and never looked back. “I basically went vegan overnight.” Soon after going vegan, Tiffany started to see a lot of activism content on social media and quickly became engaged with the local community, getting a crash course on animal rights activism. With the lack of a grassroots animal rights movement in Philadelphia, Revolution Philadelphia was born in 2020. The group proudly obtained its 501(c)(3) in 2023. Since then, RP has taken on multiple local campaigns and are working toward making a lasting difference for animals.
Stephanie Curson has spent the past 23 years teaching elementary school, where she loves weaving compassion for animals into her lessons whenever she can. A vegan for nearly a decade and an animal rights advocate for more than 15 years, she’s passionate about making the world kinder for all beings. She is proud to be a part of Revolution Philadelphia and loves working on campaigns with the other strong, like minded, and inspiring women. For the last three years, Stephanie has organized Phoenixville VegFest and is excited to keep growing and expanding the event. A lifelong animal lover, she feels a deep responsibility to speak up for animals and push back against the cruelty they face worldwide. Since going vegan, she’s also become a full-on foodie—and she’ll happily point you to all the best vegan spots around.
