Cuppa Depresso: Recent Episodes
Soulbrew Collective
Conversations surrounding mental wellness and personal development. What better way to learn from others and alleviate mental health stigma than chatting over coffee?
Different groups of people each month, different conversation each week.
This week, we have the co-founder of Washi (@was.hi_sg), Brandon Bright (@hellobrandonbright) with us on Cuppa Depresso. We find out more about how and why Washi follows the path of being sustainable as well as Brandon's personal journey in living sustainably.
Shoutout to @gamechangersmovie, @thecaptureapp and @scoopwholefoods_sg for providing information and services that aid others in making lifestyle changes to help change the impact we are having on the environment!
This week, Wynn Gray (@wynngray) shares with us her experiences with thrifting and tips on how to customize and be creative with our outfits.
As much as being sustainable is important, being creative about it might help persuade others to step up and buy pre-loved clothing instead of new ones from fast fashion stores.
