Enough Stuff: we don't need more stuff - we just need enough stuff, used well.
🎧 Sustainability and Cinema | Normalization Through Media | Enough Stuff
We watch movies and TV shows filled with explosions, demolished sets, and mountains of uneaten food (not to mention all the electronics). It looks like entertainment but underneath the spectacle is a hidden mountain of waste we rarely question.
This episode of Enough Stuff explores why we have become so numb to the garbage on our screens and what it says about our relationship with consumption, storytelling, and the planet.
As mentioned in the episode, I’ve started a sustainability themed book club, The Monthly Leaf and you can join it by hitting this link: https://bookclubs.com/the-monthly-leaf/join/ (https://bookclubs.com/the-monthly-leaf/join/)📖

In this episode of Enough Stuff, we’re talking about how to keep building a more sustainable life in a way that feels steady, realistic, and sustainable for you.

Inside this episode, we explore:
* Why you don’t need to care about every issue equally—and how to choose your lane
* Letting go of perfection and embracing progress
* How to avoid sustainability burnout and protect your energy
* Why leading by example can be more powerful than preaching
