Jasmine Duke is a powerhouse content creator, wellness educator, and founder of Diary of a Mad Black Vegan—a digital platform turned movement that blends plant-based living, unapologetic storytelling, and women’s wellness into one bold lifestyle.
Born to a Guyanese father and an African-American mother, Jasmine is the living, breathing fusion of Caribbean flavor and Black Southern soul. A DMV native (Prince George’s County stand up) now based in Philly, she brings ancestral spice, hometown realness, and so much flavor to everything she creates.
What started as a personal journey to reclaim and elevate her lifestyle through veganism has grown into a vibrant community where food meets healing, culture meets coochie care, and Black women are centered at every turn. Jasmine’s work sits at the intersection of flavor and freedom, using food as a gateway to liberation, empowerment, and deep self-care.
Her recipe creations, viral wellness content, and signature ebooks like The Plant Coochie Chronicles have reached thousands of women seeking holistic ways to reconnect with their bodies through the power of plants. From cycle syncing with herbs and juicing for vaginal health, to redefining what a vegan baddie looks like—Jasmine is reimagining wellness for this generation and beyond.
But she doesn’t stop there. Through her bold lifestyle brand Mood Junky, Jasmine celebrates women with statement pieces that speak volumes. And whether she’s sharing wellness gems, travel diaries, or the real behind-the-scenes of being a content creator—she takes her audience on the full rollercoaster ride of millennial womanhood, always keeping it raw, funny, and full of heart.
She’s collaborated with major brands, been featured in top media outlets like Ebony, Sony, VegNews, and The Philadelphia Inquirer, and continues to lead conversations around reproductive health, ancestral healing, and plant-based joy—with a sprinkle of humor, a little old-school R&B, and a whole lot of love.
