My guests today are Dr. Durka and Suthan Naganayagam. They created Niki's Natural Wipes after experiencing diaper rashes and irritations with their first son, Niki. With backgrounds in healthcare science and technology, they spent many long nights researching organic substances that might be able to moisturize, soothe, and prevent bacterial infections from effecting their son. After months of testing, they stumbled on a unique combination of organic ingredients that when applied to baby wipes led to Niki never experiencing another diaper rash.
Niki's was created out of the desperation of two parents, wanting to alleviate the pain that their newborn infant was suffering from with a natural solution. Niki's Natural Wipes are the world's only natural baby wipes infused with organic coconut oil and menuca honey essence. The first of their kind baby wipes, which have earned one of the highest certifications from the environmental working group are now available for the first time in the U.S. Though created to help parents battling endless skin irritation. Niki's Natural Wipes are also an imperative solution for anyone committed to eliminating toxins from babies' lives. Today, we talk about how Niki's began their sustainability practices and the ingredients to look out for in traditional baby products.

She became fascinated by chronobiology and by extension it's practical applications to restore a state of homeostasis, not only to her sleep, but also to her life as a whole. Knowing the difference between a life with sleep and without, Mollie's now dedicated her life to sharing the forgotten skill set of sleep. Today, we talk about what good sleep is, how to get better sleep, what your circadian rhythm is and more.

My guest today is Ivan Inspires. He was born and raised in the Bronx as one of four children who were exposed to harsh living conditions and subjected to a poor quality of life. Now, as the father of five, Ivan understands the true value of a dollar and the power of financial abundance in one's life. Ivan has dedicated his life to sharing what he's learned over the years in his pursuit of wealth. His latest project is the development of a children's wealth building program. Ivan believes that financial literacy should be fun for the entire family. So he created an exclusive board game and unique micro lessons to change the way children are taught financial literacy at home. So today we're talking about money mindset when, and how to start teaching children about money, and some tools to help children retain and understand the money lessons taught to them.

The last time I did a life update was November 2019, after I wrapped up my summer event tour in California, spent a month in France, returned to South Dakota, opened my store, and expanded my manufacturing business. It’s now 12 months later and oh boy, what a year it’s been!

Today's episode is a repost of an Instagram live I did it just a couple of days ago with my dear friend Jamie Nicolini, owner of the sustainable supply company, The Collective in Des Moines, Iowa. Jamie and I met in April, 2019 when I spoke about reducing your environmental impact at the Des Moines Vegan Fest, which she helped organize. Then the day after the vegan fest, she took me out to breakfast to pick my brain and we ended up sitting there for like eight or nine hours talking about opening a zero waste store, our struggles with alcohol, our journey to veganism and so much more and we've been friends ever since. Then last summer she opened her own brick and mortar store in Des Moines and of course she stocks my Bestowed Essentials products there. We both get so many questions about what it's like running a zero waste business and how we got started. So that's why we did this Instagram live, which I'm crossposting to my Hippie Haven Podcasts so that it can reach more of you.

Our guest today is Michelle Dickinson, a passionate mental health advocate, a Ted speaker and published author of a memoir entitled Breaking Into My Life. After years of playing the role of child care giver, Michelle embarked on her own healing journey of self discovery. Her memoir offers a rare glimpse into a young girl's experience living with and loving her bipolar mother. Michelle then spent years working to eradicate the mental health stigma within her own workplace at a fortune 500 company by elevating compassion, causing more open conversations and leading real change in how mental illness is understood in the corporate setting. She also knows firsthand what it feels like to struggle with a mental illness after experiencing her own depression due to challenging life events of her own. As a past volunteer with court appointed special advocates, the Make a Wish Foundation and serving as big sister with the Big Brothers, Big Sisters organization, elevating the wellbeing of our youth matters to her. Michelle's volunteer work led her to create her own children's program called Perfect Just The Way You Are. This program was designed to help youth better understand how to nourish the body and the mind and has reached over 2000 children and their families in New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania in the last five years. The program recently evolved into a school-wide and student led mental health wellness fair. Michelle's intentions are to touch as many children's lives as possible with this program so that children proactively develop a healthy relationship to brain health. In today's episode, we're talking about how to reduce the stigma around mental health, how to create more compassion in today's society, how to improve the collective mindset around mental health in your workplace, the economic benefits of investing in mental health resources, and Michelle's advice to those affected by mental illness.

Today I'm chatting with Naomi Grevemberg. Like me, she's low waste and lives in a van, but the similarities pretty much end there. She's been doing van life for twice as long as I have in a van that's older than I am, and definitely way older than my own van. She travels with her husband while I travel solo. They like rural camping. Well, I prefer to stay in urban areas, etc. So as we're swapping stories and tips from our lives on the road, you get to learn all about van life from two very different perspectives today.

Today's guest is Sharon Carne, creator of Sound Wellness, a holistic modality that uses techniques based on sound and music to bring your body, mind, emotions, and spirit back into harmony to reduce stress, allow natural healing and prevent illness. In 2020 the World Health Organization estimates that 75% of deaths around the world will be due to chronic illnesses and stress is a major factor in chronic illnesses. In fact, the World Health Organization declared stress to be the health epidemic of the 21st century as eco anxiety or anxiety around the existing climate crisis and future survival of the human race. As that grows, I want to talk more about ways that we can all reduce a little stress in our day to day lives. So Sharon is here to share her tips related to sound healing based on a program that she originally developed for the integrated health institute at the Mount Royal University in Canada and his since presented to the Canadian Mental Health Commission, the Alberta Health region conference on chronic disease management, the Manitoba Health region, and the national health work and wellness conference in Quebec plus many others.

Today's guest is Richard Arterbury, the executive director of Ocean Blue Project, a nonprofit organization based in my home state of Oregon. Their mission is to protect and conserve the ocean and its associated waterways through hands on volunteer efforts to clean beaches and rivers, enhance wildlife habitats, and reduce pollution and through service learning projects to provide education and increase awareness of the critical importance of clean waterways. Today we'll be discussing how he started his nonprofit organization, what he's learned along the way and how you can organize a trash cleanup in your community.

Today, we are chatting with Dr. Samuel Milham, a specialist in occupational epidemiology who's known as the scientist who first alerted the world to the frightening potential link between occupational exposure to electromagnetic fields and human disease. Born in 1932, Dr. Milam is a graduate of union college and Albany Medical College. He became a senior resident and epidemiology at the New York State Department of Health in 1961 and then was a development consultant for that department. His experience includes associate professor, department of Pediatrics, Albany Medical College, associate professor, University of Hawaii, school of Public Health and medical school section head epidemiology section, Washington State Department of Health, chronic disease, epidemiologist, Washington State Department of Health, and more. He has received many awards, including the Robert Carl Strom Foundation Humanitarian Award in 1990 and has written dozens of peer reviewed articles on various medical issues. His mortality rate studies led to the writing of his book, Dirty Electricity, to alert people to the possibility of a looming epidemic of mortality due to high frequency radiation and what steps to take to reduce our exposure to dirty electricity. Now, this is a controversial topic with limited research behind it. There are many people who do believe that electromagnetic fields are negatively affecting our bodies, and that there needs to be more research done into the longterm consequences on humans, animals, and the environment. And there are many others who think that the existing research proves that there's no adverse health risks from electromagnetic fields. My goal is to always introduce topics to you and then encourage you to do your own research and to, at the end of the day, do what's best for you, your family, and the planet as best you can.

Today, we are chatting with Corinne Hellyer, a resident of Surfside Beach, South Carolina, where she and other fellow citizens were successful in getting their city council to ban plastic bags. She is sharing how they made that happen, what hurdles they had to overcome, and how you can do the same in your town.

Hey, it's Callee, and you're listening to a special episode of the Hippie Haven Podcast. If you haven't already, be sure to hit that subscribe button so that you automatically get each new episode right when it comes out.
While it's important that we always continue to strive for substantial change in the world around us, constant research, lifestyle changes, and/or activism can be overwhelming and exhausting, so I wanted to do another edition of good news in the sustainability field to remind us all of the progress that's already been made.
IN VEGAN NEWS:
Del Taco will be releasing vegan tacos made with Beyond Meat on April 25th at all 580 US locations. Taco Bell now has a dedicated vegetarian menu, with many options that can be veganized, including the Crunchwrap Supreme. Subway just released a vegan sub at participating UK locations. Burger King is testing vegan whoopers at 59 locations in and around St Louis Missouri in the US.
Following Canada's recently updated dietary recommendations, the French government just changed theirs as well, telling French citizens that they should eat less meat, sugar + salt, and more fruits, veggies, whole grains + nuts.
Virgin Atlantic Airlines is removing beef + palm oil from their in-flight menus.
A new study shows that almost half of coffee drinkers in the UK ask for vegan milk when ordering coffee at a cafe. This is on par with reports that about half of Americans now regularly purchase non-dairy milk at grocery stores. In fact, experts predict that the dairy industry could completely disappear in the next 10 years. They've already lost over $1 billion dollars in revenue last year compared to the year prior, whereas the vegan milk market is booming, with sales excepted to exceed $34 billion by 2024.
IN ANIMAL WELFARE NEWS:
Madrid, Spain just banned wild animal circuses, citing that the needs of animals cannot be met in a circus environment where they are confined in cages for long periods of time. Madrid is the 64th municipality in Spain to ban wild animal circuses, and Spain is one of 26 countries around the world that have enacted this type of ban.
Sharks near the Great Barrier Reef in Australia can no longer be shot dead. Shark attacks are incredibly rare, but when they did occur, authorities would try to kill any sharks seen in the area, though this inhumane practice was not found to actually reduce the likelihood of a shark attack.
Following public outcry, the US department of agriculture has announced that it will stop testing on kittens. For 37 years, they'd secretly been feeding 2 month old kittens raw meat infected with toxoplasma parasites to study foodborne illnesses. The infected kittens were studied for 2-3 weeks, then unnecessarily killed, even though this illness is easily curable and the kittens could have, and should have instead been put up for adoption. Over 3,000 baby kittens were subject to these taxpayer-dollar-funded horrors, but luckily it's finally come to an end, and the USDA will be releasing it's last 14 kittens to be adopted by USDA employees.
Germany's last fur farm just closed down, following a national ban in 2017, thanks to heavy campaigning by PETA.
The state of New York is considering a bill to ban pet stores from selling dogs bred at a puppy mill. All pet shops would be required to obtain their animals from rescue shelters or humane societies only. If you live in New York, please call your local state rep and encourage them to support this legislation!
The California Horse Racing Board banned the use of riding crops so that horse jockeys can no longer whip their horses during a race. This comes after 22 horses have died in the last 5 months at the Santa Anita horse race track alone, though it's not clear how many of those deaths were directly related to whipping.
There's currently a bill in the Canadian Parliament that would fine any new park or aquarium in Canada up to $200,000 for holding captive any dolphins, whales or porpoises.unfortunately This would not affect the two existing Canadian aquariums that have about 61 orcas, dolphins + whales held captive .
IN PLASTIC POLLUTION NEWS:
After a massive number of customer complaints, Trader Joes announced that they'll be eliminating over a million pounds of plastic from their stores, in part by no longer offering single use plastic bags at checkout, switching to biodegradable produce bags, replacing styrofoam produce packaging with bio-based compostable trays, and selling more loose produce overall.
UK-based supermarket chain Tesco is now testing sales of more plastic-free produce, though they're not making it permanent until they know how it impacts their food waste numbers. By 2025, Tesco plans to cut packaging weight in half, made all of its packaging entirely recyclable, and ensure the paper it uses is 100 percent sustainable.
New York is now the second state in the US, after California, to ban retail stores from offering single-use plastic bags at checkout. Plastic bags that are still allowed include restaurant takeout bags, deli or meat counter bags, newspaper bags, dry cleaning bags, and bulk trash bags purchased by customers. Counties in New York have the option to charge a five cent fee per paper bag as well, to encourage consumers to opt for reusable bags instead. Hawaii also basically has a similar ban in place, as every county in Hawaii has banned plastic bags, but it hasn't been made official at the state level yet. The state of Oregon is currently considering a plastic bag ban themselves.
San Francisco, California has become the first city in the nation to ban the sale of plastic water bottles that weigh less than 21 ounces. A waiver is allowed only if there isn't an adequate refillable water source nearby. San Fran has already banned plastic bags + styrofoam containers in their mission to go zero waste and eliminate all new trash from landfills.
And speaking of trash, there's a European company called Sedna that's taking fishing nets out of the ocean and turning them into carpets! Fishing nets make up almost half of the plastic pollution in the oceans, so while companies that are using recycled water bottles are great, it's even better in my opinion to see a company trying to tackle this much larger issue.
Finally, Chicago, the Windy City, has pledged to run the city on 100% renewable energy, such as wind, by 2040.

Hey, it's Callee, just checking in to let you know that there's no Hippie Haven Podcast episode this week, because thanks to all your support + votes, my zero waste store Bestowed Essentials, made it to the top 100 finalists of the 2019 Fedex Small Business grant, so we had to quickly put together a video for the next round of judging, and that, plus getting my new full-time employee Chesca all settled in here at the shop and ready to take over production + shipping of our online orders for me, I've had my hands full lately and decided to skip an episode for this week, but I will be back next week on our regular schedule with April Dickinson, you might know her on Instagram as @zerowastedork, and she'll be sharing her expertise as a former legislative assistant on how to effectively communicate with lawmakers + how to enact policy change at your local level. This is a topic I've gotten a lot of requests for, so I'm reallyyyyy excited to finally be diving deep into this subject because, as we all know, individual action is important, but it's not the end-all-be-all, and it takes action from corporations + governments to bring about substantial change, but we're not going to see action unless we demand it. This is just one of many episodes I'll be doing this year on community activism, as well as of course, still talking about individual lifestyle changes, because "zero waste" is about so much more than just making little to no trash. Thank you so much, as always, for all of your support, not just with this podcast, but with my business + my other projects, I love connecting with you on Instagram, if you're not already following me, I'm @ahippieinavan, and feel free to suggest other topics and/or guests that you'd like to hear on the podcast! Remember, that together, we will make a difference to save the planet.

Today's guest is Robin LaCross, a holistic health practitioner who specializes in women’s reproductive health. She has been teaching natural birth control methods for over 25 years, and she is passionate about making sure every young woman grows up knowing and understanding her body. Robin is on a mission to reduce unintended pregnancies and the spread of STDs in the world by changing the way mothers talk to their children about puberty + sex. Today, Callee + Robin are talking about natural birth control, as a way for you to take control of your own reproductive health, to save money, and to make less waste. Whether you already have kids, don't ever want to have kids, or are currently trying to have kids, there's something for everyone in this episode, men included. And if you, like Callee + Robin, have known since a young age that being a mother isn't part of your life plan, definitely stay tuned near the end of this episode where they talk about tubal ligation, how difficult it is to find a doctor who respects your decision, and what they've both done to prevent unintended pregnancy.

Today we are chatting with Lindsey McCoy, co-founder and CEO of Plaine Products. She holds a master’s degree in nonprofit management and spent the last 10 years working on environmental education in the Bahamas where single-use plastic is common. She and her sister co-founded a company, Plaine Products, that offers shampoo, conditioner and body wash and lotion in aluminum bottles that can be returned, refilled and reused. We discuss how they started a refill-by-mail company, how it works, what business struggles and hardships they faced, and more.

Hey, it's Callee, and you're listening to the Hippie Haven Podcast! Every wednesday, I interview experts + everyday people on how they live an ethical + eco-friendly lifestyle, and how you can too. Previously, we've covered topics like how to go zero waste, environmental activism, vegan parenting, preventing food waste, secondhand shopping, urban beekeeping, starting an eco business, and so much more. My goal is to inspire you to take action, both in your day-to-day routine, and on a larger scale of combined advocacy because I believe that together, we can make a difference in saving the planet.

Today's episode is all about composting with worms, featuring Anna de la Vega, a composting expert who founded The Urban Worm, and provides vermicompost workshops + consulting to individuals, businesses + schools in the UK. You can follow her on Instagram @wormologist, or visit her website at www.theurbanworm.co.uk. Shownotes for this episode, including a full transcript, are available at www.ahippieinavan.com/026.
This episode is sponsored by Uncle Jim's Worm Farm, the #1 supplier of composting worms + supplies in the US. I've got a compost bin in my shop that's thriving with worm from Uncle Jim's, and I'll be ordering from them again in a few months when I start a second worm bin in my campervan once I'm back on the road. Uncle Jim's ships worms to the continental United States, plus Alaska, Puerto Rico + the Virgin Islands year-round, with guaranteed live delivery. To order worms or other compost supplies, visit ahippieinavan.com/worms, and as always, thank you so much for supporting our podcast partners!
If you're not quite ready for a full-blown compost pile or bin at home, but you definitely don't want your food scraps stuck in a landfill, creating toxic methane gas, then I've got a couple tips for you too! First, check out the ShareWaste app. It shows you neighbors with a compost pile and/or chickens who are happy to accept your foods scraps, or if you have chickens or a compost pile yourself, you can sign up to accept your neighbors food scraps. It's still a growing app, so if there's no one nearby you yet, then tip #2 is to google compost + your city name to see if you have a local pickup service, or if there's a dropoff near you - they're often at farms, food coops, community gardens, or even your municipal garbage facility. You can also call your garbage company and see if they offer food waste bins to pickup on the curb when they collect your trash. Some garbage companies will allow food waste in your yard waste bin, others will not, so be sure to verify what's available, and of course verify that they're actually turning your food and or yard waste into compost!
I want to give a quick shout-out to several small compost companies that I personally follow on Instagram, this is not sponsored at all, I just love the work they're doing. There's CompostNow in parts of Georgia + the Carolinas, Scraps Mile High in Denver, Colorado, The Compost Crew in DC + Baltimore, and Compost Cab, also in DC.
If you are interested in starting your own vermicompost, make sure you check out our sponsor, Uncle Jim's Worm Farm. This small company in Pennsylvania has been getting their hands dirty with vermicompost for over forty years, and today they're the #1 supplier of composting worms + composting supplies in the US. Of course, I'd never recommend a company that I don't personally love, and I can tell you that my vermicompost bin is thriving with the worms I got from Uncle Jim's.They ship to the lower 48 states, plus Alaska, Puerto Rico + the Virgin Islands, and they guarantee live delivery year round. You can order worms for your new vermicompost bin by visiting www.ahippieinavan.com/worms

Hey, it's Callee, and you're listening to a special episode of the Hippie Haven Podcast! If this is your first time listening, I release a new regular episode every Wednesday, where I interview sustainability leaders + experts on how we can live our best ethical + eco-friendly life.
If you want to learn more about zero waste basics, I recommend listening to episode 16 with Polly Barks of Green Indy Blog, where she shares her 12 steps to a waste free life in 12 months, and episode 21 with Alyssa of the Live Planted Podcast about secondhand shopping. We've also covered numerous other topics, like starting an eco business, urban beekeeping, composting, vegan parenting + more, so definitely check out those old episodes too if you haven't already!
For today's bonus episode, I've got 13 crowdfunding campaigns from different countries that are ending soon and could really benefit from your support, whether it's financial if you have a few dollars or more to spare, or sharing them on your social networks to help boost their visibility. While there might not be an eco business or charity crowdfunding near you yet, I recommend picking the closest one to you, or to a friend or family member of yours.
The links to each crowdfunding campaign will be in the shownotes for this episode, so you can just open up your podcast app where you're listening to this right now and click on the one that interests you for more info.
First, there's Scoop Marketplace in Seattle, Washington of the United States. They're almost halfway to their goal of $10,000 by Feb 28th to open a new zero waste grocery store. Their website is https://www.scoopmarketplace.com/

You might have seen me talking about ecobricks on my Instagram a few weeks ago, if you don't know what they are, it's when you completely stuff a hard plastic bottle with soft plastic film + wrappers to create what's essentially a brick made entirely of plastic. These have become popular building materials in parts of Africa + Asia, where there's often an abundance of discarded plastic, without proper recycling facilities. Ecobricks are catching on in the UK, but are hardly known of here in the States. I will be doing an episode all about ecobricks in a few months, so stay tuned for that! Now, Upcycle Santa Fe, in New Mexico, USA, is raising money to complete testing of open-source building materials made from post-consumer plastic waste, aka ecobricks. This testing is composed of two parts: 1) researching and documenting the exact R-values (insulation ratings) of Ecobricks, and 2) the rate and speed at which these materials will burn in a structural fire (flame-spread). The tests will be carried out by Intertek in Pennsylvania, providing the groundwork for meeting building codes in NM and eventually elsewhere, and will ultimately allow Upcycle Santa Fe to build the first full-scale, legally-compliant plastic insulated structures in the United States. They've already had a study completed by the Los Alamos National Laboratory, which documented that plastic waste used as insulation material does not have any significant off-gassing of chemicals in comparison with modern insulation available in stores. Upcycle Santa Fe still needs over $4,000 to get this ecobrick testing done, and you can learn more at https://upcyclesantafe.org/

Refill Revolution is already pretty well-known in the zero waste community, it's a female-owned refill store in Denver, Colorado, and they're looking to raise $50,000 in the next 26 days to expand their product line into unpackaged groceries. Their website is https://www.therefillrevolution.com/
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/help-refill-revolution-expand-into-bulk-food#/
The Pantry Concept will be the first zero waste grocery store in Kansas City, and they need $35,000 in the next 56 days to open. I don't see a website for them yet, but you can find them on Facebook as The Pantry Concept.
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/zero-waste-bulk-store#/
In Portland, Oregon, the non-profit CityWildPDX is seeking $30,000 to purchase + renovate an old Airstream camper using recycled + eco-friendly materials into a mobile classroom to bring environmental education opportunities to Portland area kids and families. They're only a third of the way to their goal that expires on Feb 28th. Their website is http://www.citywildpdx.org/
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/902844472/wild-bus-kids-environmental-education-classroom-on?ref=discovery&term=wild%20bus
In the state of Georgia, there's a non-profit called Gangstas to Growers, which is an agriculture business training program that offers paid internships to formerly incarcerated Black youth on the West Side of Atlanta. They need about $3,000 more dollars to reach their goal of $15k to support their program, to secure a van for transportation, fees for educators and class materials, zero-waste kits and trainee uniforms.

Kathy, owner of Naked Pantry, the first zero waste refill shop in New Milton, England, received a lot of feedback from her customers about wanting to drink plant-based milks, but they all come in TetraPaks, which their local town doesn't recycle. Kathy just needs a little over 200 more pounds by February 26th to purchase machines to make nut milk alternatives in-store so that her customers can fill up their own containers and avoid landfill waste.

This last crowdfunding campaign I found is written in German, and unfortunately the four years of German classes I took way back in high school are no longer fresh in my brain, but from what I could translate, and with a little help from Google, there's a couple in Marburg, Germany looking to open the area's first unpackaged store in the spring of this year. They need about 27,000 more euros, so if you know German and want to support their campaign, the link will be in the shownotes.

We are back today with returning podcast guest Sabrina Katz, @sustainablesabs on Instagram, and marketing director for The Wally Shop, the first zero waste grocery delivery company, launching now in select NYC zip codes. This episode is slightly different and more laid back than the rest because it was recorded for the IG live I did with Sabrina last week, in case this interview sounds familiar to you already. We talk about how to handle negative comments from family and friends and common zero waste misconceptions throughout the episode.

Now, I've been wanting to start doing special bonus episodes as well, a bit shorter + more personal than our usual Wednesday interviews, and also unedited, so please forgive me if I mess up here or there. Some big stuff happened in the sustainability field this week that seemed like a great topic to cover in my first bonus episode!
Since you're listening to my podcast, I assume you're into the zero waste movement, which means you've very likely heard the recent news about the launch of Loop. Loop is a program with the mission of eliminating the idea of waste by creating returnable, refillable packaging for common consumer items, like Coca-Cola soda, Pampers diapers, Axe Deodorant, Haagen Daaz ice cream, and dozens of other popular products.
But if you've heard about Loop, you've probably also heard people talking about if it's really as good as it's being made out to be. My friends Polly of Green Indy Blog and April aka Zero Waste Dork just did an IG live today where they discussed how they felt about it, and I wanted to share my own thoughts here as well.

Dianna Cohen is an artist and the co-founder + CEO of the Plastic Pollution Coalition, a group that raises awareness of ocean waste and addresses the pervasive problem of plastic pollution.

I actually have an interview series on my blog called How To Start A Zero Waste Store, which as it sounds, is interviews I've done with zero waste store owners around the globe, so if the idea of opening your own zero waste shop, or any type of eco-friendly business, is something you've been dreaming about, take this as your sign that you should definitely go for it, listen to the rest of this episode, check out that interview series on my blog ahippieinavan.com, and together let's make 2019 the year of zero waste businesses!

Happy Holidays, and a merry day after christmas if you just celebrated that. This week's episode is a little different, a little more laid-back due to the festivities. You might have already heard it, if you saw the IG live I did a couple weeks back on my account @ahippieinavan with Sabrina Katz of @sustainablesabs, but if not, we chat all about zero waste, veganism, minimalism, including common zero waste misconceptions, tips on going vegan, using a safety razor, her favorite books, new years resolutions, and we answer a few questions from the live viewers as well. To give her a proper introduction, Sabrina Katz is a texas girl now living in Brooklyn new york, working as the communication and marketing director for the wally shop, the first zero waste grocery delivery company, launching now in select NYC zip codes. Because we were recording on both our computers for the podcast audio, and on our cell phones for the IG live, there are a few places where there's a slight echo, and also I accidentally muted my side of the recording for the very first two questions I asked, so here's Sabs with how she got started in both zero waste and veganism, as well as how she ended up in New York.

We are back today with Polly Barks of Green Indy Blog. Polly was actually the very first person I interviewed for the podcast, back in July, though it ended up being the second interview published. In that episode, we talked all about how to advocate for zero waste, including online, in your local community, what to do if your friends + family totally aren’t interested, and more, so if you haven’t listened to that one already, be sure to add it to your play list! Polly has living zero waste since 2015, and has been teaching it as her full-time job for about a year now. She is about to launch a new online course called the Essential Zero Waste Blueprint starting January 1st, 2019, covering how to go zero waste in 12 different areas of your life over a twelve month timespan, no matter how or where you live. She’s here today to share more info on that course, including her 12 starter tips for a waste-free life.

Katie is a meditation and manifestation coach originally from Austin, Texas, but she now splits her time between Costa Rica and Truckee, California.

Callee chats with Kathryn Kellog, the popular blogger behind GoingZeroWaste.com. Kathryn is a professional actor turned eco-activist. After a breast cancer scare led her to cutting plastic out of her life, she discovered the zero waste movement, and started her blog in 2015 about her journey to fit all of her trash in a 16 oz mason jar. She quickly became one of the most well-known names in the zero waste community, and has been featured on CNN, The Guardian, MSNBC + National Geographic, just to name a few. She now spends most of her time educating the public on the dangers of trash, plastic pollution, and food waste with small, actionable tips we can all implement to make the world a little greener. Her new book, 101 Ways To Go Zero Waste, will be released in April 2019 and is available for preorder now.
