It is an undeniable fact that although social media isn't all sunshine and roses, it does have some incredible perks- including being able to connect with so many amazing people from around the world! In this episode, I chatted (and laughed- a lot) with one of my Instagram pals, Heizal Nagginda. Heizal runs an organization called Climate Operation, whose aim is to educate youth about climate change and environmentalism, through visits to local schools and activities (like planting trees)! Long story short, Heizal is awesome.
To support Heizal and her work at Climate Operation, follow her on Instagram @climateoperation.

"What can I do, if I'm just one person?" is a question that many of us have probably pondered over, maybe even feeling a bit powerless in the face of the world's huge and daunting issues. In this episode, I discuss (more like rant into my microphone) about how fear has often been paralyzing and prevented us from taking action to help the Earth.

Well folks, it's been a while since I've posted an episode, but I'm realizing (just now, as I'm typing this) that this is my TENTH episode! Woohoo! As always, I hope you enjoy this conversation, and make sure to check out (and buy!) some of TERRA-TORY's products (seriously, they're the prettiest soaps I've ever owned). I hope this conversation and Kimberly's story inspire you to embark on your own creative endeavors and use the ups and downs in your life to guide you to whatever you were destined to create (for Kimberly, it was soap. For me, well.... I'm figuring that out).

If anyone else felt emotionally hungover from watching last night's Presidential (if you can even call it that) Debate, you're not alone. My friend Ayia and I sat down to talk about the utterly confusing catastrophe that was last night's debate and discuss some key moments that really stuck with us. Ah, but fear not! We also conversed about ways in which you can practice self-care while trying to emotionally navigate these stressful times. This episode is more of a (very) casual conversation rather than an interview, so it's a different style/format, but hopefully still equally as informative and entertaining nonetheless. Enjoy!
