While we like to think we’re the authority on all things discussed on the show, sometimes we need to bring in an expert. And that’s precisely what we did this week with Hannah Heacox, or as we like to refer to her, Sustainable Hannah. She joins us this week to chat about her sustainable lifestyle and to share some practical ways to tackle what can seem like a huge undertaking. Hannah has such an approachable attitude regarding an overwhelming topic and after listening to our conversation, you’re sure to have at least one practical takeaway to implement some sustainability in your life!

Here at The Kitschy Kountdown, we pride ourselves in our ability to discuss both the thoughtful and the trivial aspects of life. This week we’ve managed to do both in our newest “what’s in our bag” episode, because while asking your girlfriend what kind of mascara she’s using may seem trivial, we all know good lashes have the power to change the world. Tune in as we share not just the top 10, but the top 12 products in our makeup bags, because when we find products we love, we shout it from the rooftops. Or the through the microphone.

Millennials take a lot of heat. People blame us for all of life’s problems. Someone cut you off in traffic? It was probably a millennial texting and driving. You can’t find a job?

We’re not all bad and in this week’s episode, we’re taking a deep dive into the industries our generation is supposedly killing and putting it to the test in our own lives. Sure, maybe we’re putting Big Napkin out of business, but there are some other industries that needed to go and we’re giving them the push they need. Tune in to find out what they are!

Whether you’re in the thick of it right now or sense change on the horizon, we hope this episode leaves you feeling encouraged and empowered.
