I am joined by my boyfriend Isaac to talk about our trip to Glacier National Park that we went on together in August 2025. A bit of a longer episode, but we also include some tips for going to & exploring the park. Listen for the hikes we did, our wildlife sightings, the people we met, and the lessons we learned!

In this episode, I discuss the impact of our shopping habits, the power we have as consumers, sustainability, and provide some questions for you to think about that encourage more mindful shopping. Conscious consumerism is good for your wallet and your planet!

Sorry if I got a little preachy in this one! This is a topic I am extremely passionate about, so this is probably not the last time you'll hear about it!
