Flip Whole Home Batteries with Rachel Marcus Ep 214

Rachel Marcus reached out to me on Linkedin with something I wasn't aware existed - except for solar panels. Rachel is the Head of Platform Operations for Flip Energy - they manufacture low cost, whole home batteries and create the technology to operate it as well. I only knew about batteries to capture excess solar power, but anyone can use these! Flip is not new, but they are working on building up a client base, starting in Maine. These batteries are a cleaner, more affordable altern...

The Future of Sustainability is in Good Hands with Hannah Foster Ep 213

Hannah Foster is my cousin's daughter (my 2nd cousin?), and I happened to see a post on Instagram where she was an intern this summer, and I felt first, SO proud, and also like we could all learn something from this. I haven't seen Hannah or my cousin in a few years, since before she graduated high school, so I missed what she was focusing on - and totally missed what an avid learner she has become, and also that she was doing an internship! It was so fun catching up with her, and hearing abo...

Self Work for World Work with Laura Hartley - Replay

I'm re-posting this episode with Laura because I need to hear it - I hope it touches you, too. She inspired me so much, and made me feel like progress is still possible. This conversation with Laura Hartley was like medicine for my soul - I hope this helps you to feel seen, too, because it was a message that I didn't expect or know that I needed to hear! I told Laura that I've felt a call to be more involved in what's happening in the world, but I lack the confidence to stand up when the time...

Alchemy RV Renovations with Tessa Terry - Replay

Tessa Terry is another guest that I've been obsessed with following - when I was moving, I almost considered buying her parents' house in SC so we could have tea together in the mornings, but I wouldn't be able to keep my job, so.... But if you watch her Instagram reels, you will see why I'm just in awe of what she does. The fact that she keeps outdated RVs and trailers from being junked is heroic in my eyes! The way she makes an RV look luxurious and spacious is pure magic. I talked to Tessa...

Feeding People with Amy Dolan - Replay

I'm taking a week-ish away from podcasting, but wanted to share an episode or 2 that I love. One of my fave experiences was "meeting" Amy Dolan. We talked back in 2024, and her message has cemented a lot of my thoughts about feeding people as truth, and also the way she walks in the world is just so inspiring to me. I love that we are still connected, and that, even though her podcast is on hold, she still holds the grace and love she shares here. I used this from Amy Dolan's website: "...
