Erica joins this week’s podcast, and we discuss conscious consumerism and the trifecta of value it can add to your life: it’s good for the world, makes you feel food, and can save you money. We define conscious consumerism and talk through some actionable tips for how to incorporate more of it into your life. We discuss how it can improve the control and agency over your life, which can feel good in a world of more and more things we can’t control. We also share how to educate and influence kids and other friends and family in your life.
