A podcast for people who give a sh*t about the planet. Making personal changes to help the climate crisis can sometimes be overwhelming. It's hard to know what shifts to make that will actually make a meaningful impact! In less than 15 minutes, I do my best to take out the guess work and offer convenient solutions, all in a light, non-judgy way.
