How can we learn to care about sustainable fashion in a cool and modern way? Do we have to let go of trends and style just because we happen to also care for our planet? Tune into this episode with model activist Renee Peters as we talk about just that and also how to love yourself in the life of an eco-warrior. Do sustainability and positive body image go together? Or do you have to actively practice both to seek that important balance of compassion and self-love?
Learn how Renee has struggled with society's image of a "sample size", and how that at the same time has helped her learn how to love and respect her own body. She shares with us her view on sustainable living, and how adopting such a life actually helped her find her identity and figure out who she truly wants to be.
