Ep 18: What Makes A Successful Advocacy Community With Katie Boue

We sometimes do not realize how much pressure can come from society and social media. When we take a step back from social media and the societal eye and you ask, what are you really passionate about? what do you really have longevity in working towards? You can learn so much and invest more deeply.

Sometimes, we just need to think clearly and give ourselves permission to start small and do the good things that we love for the environment. We don’t need to keep questioning ourselves just because of what others dictate, but we need to work together to make an impact.

In this episode, Katie Boue shares her journey and realizations as she went through transformations in her work. She also shares a few things about her upcoming book.

Listen up and learn more.
