78: 2021 Update: I launched a new business! + My journey back to social justice work

Medium Well

Well hi! It’s been a while. Today I am sharing about my journey towards determining that I was out of alignment with my deep values and passion in social justice work, and my journey back, including launching a new business! If you’ve been listening to this podcast for a bit, you know I started it to figure out what I wanted to do after closing my ethical fashion business, and I am so excited to share my new business, one that feels so right for my interest, passions, and the community I seek to build and be a part of. Listen in for the journey and the details! PS— This episode is being posted about 6 weeks after it was recorded, so the events I mentioned already past. Apologies! Lots of great offerings coming up.

In this episode, I discuss:

• How I realized that I was not in alignment with my true roots in social justice work

• Why I am finding wellness more and more problematic these days as it’s lacking a “so what”

• My journey over the past year to find my way back to the work I truly want to pursue in the world

• Working with a new coach and what that process was like

• What my new business is— IMBY! A virtual community center for people who give a shit about co-creating a more just and equitable future.
