Jackie Rodriguez - Communications strategist for sustainale brands. @jacquitabanana on instagram

Eduardo chats with Jackie Rodriguez who is a communications strategist for sustainable brands. In keeping with the theme of last weeks episode, they discuss the voice we have as consumers and the power we have with our purchases. Corporate America can continue to produce products that are low in quality and bad for the environment but it is our choice whether we purchase them. This is a great episode about being intentional with your purchases and how liberating that can be.  Apologies for the not so great audio on this episode. We do have a remote podcast with all guests being interviewed remotely. We had a small software issue on this episode that wont happen again. Thanks for the continued support!
