In this episode, we hear from a cloth diaper consultant in Germany who discusses the benefits of cloth diapering and the role of consultants in supporting parents through the process. She shares insights on the importance of ongoing education and networking among consultants, as well as the value of sharing knowledge and resources rather than hoarding them. This episode sheds light on the growing cloth diapering movement in Europe and highlights the need for more awareness and accessibility of sustainable parenting practices worldwide.

Theresa, the co-founder of Lunapaca shares her story of innovation within the cloth diapering industry. This is a fantastic conversation challenging many of the things we tell ourselves in pursuit of a simple solution to diapers that uses less plastic, less washing, and less of everything.
