Conscious Consumerism (and Fashion) is a great place to start when moving towards a better life, according to Elizabeth Joy. And I agree.

Listen to today’s show as we talk about Conscious consumerism, choosing Conscious, and why sustainability and ethical living matters in today (and tomorrow’s world). We even talk about conscious consumerism in the scope of the COVID-19 pandemic that is hitting the world right now.

We discuss:

• 
  
• Take time to learn about the issues while you stuck inside due to #coronavirus and #selfisolation.
  
• Start by consuming less  (maybe even take on a shopping ban) to help make quitting fast fashion easier.
  
• Take care of your clothes. They'll last longer than you'd think.
