My guest this week is Jen Gale. Jen Gale is an author, blogger, writer, podcaster, campaigner, community builder and speaker. Her book The Sustainable(ish) Living Guide covers everything you need to know to make small changes that make a big difference and her new book just released in March 2021 is The Sustainable(ish) Guide to Green Parenting which offers guilt-free eco ideas for raising your kids.

We talk about: - How parents can be more imperfectly sustainable - Micro-changes to feel empowered and in control - How to ditch the eco-guilt and overwhelm - Gentle steps and imperfect action - Finding what works for you and your family - We caused it we can fix it - Easy doable things that cause a big impact - We are more powerful than we think - Her journey of buying nothing new for a year (with 2 small kids) - Getting comfortable with our sacrifices As always, we continue the conversation over on Instagram, so come and join us there.
