THE PUREVANT LIVING PODCAST: THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW

New Podcast Series Intro: Person & Planet

Hello everyone, this is Stephanie Krubsack with Purevant Living. For the past two years I have been recording podcast episodes with amazing guests under the Women in Wellness and Things You Should Know Podcast series. This year I’ve decided to combine the two into one series called Person & Planet, also focusing on highlighting guests from around the world. Personal wellness and the health of our environment are intimately connected, so I wanted to create a series that combines awareness of these amazing initiatives, products, services, and businesses that benefit person and planet. Join me in spreading the word about “all things good” and stay tuned for the upcoming Person & Planet publication. Maybe you enjoy listening to podcasts such as this one, or prefer reading articles online, or reading directly from a magazine or book. I plan to cover these forms of media, to ensure that the greatest number of individuals can learn how to benefit their personal health and become more conscious about the world around them and ways to protect it. Thank you to past and present listeners and guests for your support, and feel free to contact me to share any initiatives that you think I should share on the podcast or publication at sk@purevantliving.com [sk@purvantliving.com].
