Description
From a young age, I have always been in awe of the natural world, the fashion industry and what lies beyond the veil. It wasn’t until recently that I was able to put these elements into context and begin to understand how it is all interconnected. How what I felt in my childhood, this thread of connectedness and intrigue, was a call to something far greater than I could have imagined. The Sustainably LB Podcast brings all those elements together. And while this podcast focuses on the fashion industry, I often speak of sustainability as a whole. Together, we will unfuck this.

This episode of Sustainably LB is a solo episode. I haven’t done one of these in a while. But I believe this topic to be of utmost importance this holiday season. To be honest, this conversation is always important, and these tips extend to all aspects of shopping, not strictly during the crazed overconsumption narrative of the holiday shopping season. But, essentially, we will be talking about consuming less, shopping local and breaking the wheel of overconsumption. And in this little ...
For this episode of Sustainably LB, I got to hold space with Nicole Daberkow, Designer and Owner of Elsie’s Attic. After working in the creative design space for over a decade, Nicole decided that it was time to trust the universal nudges and shift her career to slow fashion and design. Her love of the sacred nature of sewing and creating unique pieces led her to create her own sustainable fashion brand built upon doing more with what we already have. I am so grateful that I got the chance ...
For this episode of Sustainably LB, I got to hold space with Tori Cates, Certified Reiki Master and Founder of Satori 23. If you’ve been a follower of the podcast from the beginning, you might remember Tori from our first interview about her sustainable, witchy fashion brand, Potion 23. Since that interview, Tori and I have formed a beautiful friendship and I have had the privilege to watch her practice of creating magic with her hands evolve from the intentionality and love worked into every...
For this episode of Sustainably LB, I got to hold space with Nadia Estefania, Traditional Healer and Founder of Nadia Estefania Ayahuasca Retreats in Ecuador. From her former life in tech and living the perceived dream in NYC, to leading soul-centered rituals and ceremonies in Ecuador, each step along her path has led her back to her truth and who she knew she was all along. I think many of us are just starting to realize that our soul has always been in the driver seat if we can just follow ...
For this episode of Sustainably LB, I got to share space with Joelle Tangen, Designer and Owner of La Jolie Joelle. After learning about the overwhelmingly unsustainable nature of the fashion industry in college, Joelle sought to pave her own way by focusing on sustainability and what that niche is for her. Her love of nature and creating has led her to curate her own fashion line, build upcycled art outside of the realm of clothing and had her creating sustainable drag for Pattie Gonia. ...
For this episode of Sustainably LB, I got to share space with Heather Snowden, Sustainable Fashion Journalist and Editor, Remake Ambassador and Brand Ambassador at Give Your Best UK. Her particular focus in the sustainability realm is human rights. After the first time I met Heather, I was enchanted by her knowledge and the way she spoke with such eloquence when discussing tough issues. To share this knowledge in a way that doesn’t come off as elitist is a gift! Because, so often, in the sust...

For this episode of Sustainably LB, I got to share space with Selina Sanders Slow Fashion Clothing Artist and Creator of her namesake brand, Selina Sanders. The entire time Selina was sharing her story and her experience in the fashion industry, I was spellbound. I mean, I was on the edge of my seat hanging on every word. And it isn’t because she shares things about the industry that I don’t know. But she shared her story in such a way that reminded me that you can always change the narrative...
For this episode of Sustainably LB, I got to share space with Jamie Smith Artist, Creator of El Crisol Art and Spanish Teacher.

We cover so much in this episode but we keep coming back to connection and curiosity and embracing the ride while trying to do the best with what we have. Because in tru...

Centered on the individual, Lana uses different modalities to explore the mind, body, soul connection that is left out of the narrative of mainstream medicine. Connecting her clients to vetted practitione...
This episode of Sustainably LB is a solo episode and a little review about the Brand Melville Documentary on HBO MAX titled Brandy Hellville and the Cult of Fast Fashion. Now, I have read some of the reviews online and, I believe, many of the negative ones completely miss the point. I also believe that people just like to complain into the echo chambers of the internet. So if you do want to watch this documentary, I would encourage you not to read any of those reviews and come to your own con...

For this episode of Sustainably LB, I got to hold space with Susan Marrufo, Founder of Samarasa Center Student, Retreat Facilitator, Yoga and Meditation Teacher. Now, if you listened to the podcast last week, you might remember that I broke my interview with Susan into two parts, this episode is that second part. While both episodes are lovely as stand alone pieces, the two episodes truly build on each other and the first episode is a nice foundation for this second episode. I view many of m...
For this episode of Sustainably LB, I got to hold space with Susan Marrufo, Founder of Samarasa Center Student, Retreat Facilitator, Yoga and Meditation Teacher. Now, it isn’t often that a guest and I will divide straight into the interview, but that is what happened with Susan and me. Our conversation was so organic that I didn’t want to stop the flow of it to welcome her to the podcast. It really almost felt so tho that welcome had woven itself into our conversation already as we had truly ...

Because in this installment we talk about being inspired by our pee...

Curiosity, adventure and the love of the stories history has to impart are traits that have been a part of Kelli for as long as she can remember. These entrenched qualities eventually lead her to curate her own vintage clothing collection, sharing it with the masses through the interwebs and in local pop-ups. While we discuss all the nuances that come with her cur...
As we continue to watch horrors in mass play out through tiny screens, I think that it is important to maintain these conversations in the sustainable fashion space because we are all interconnected. While it is becoming more and more apparent that we need to speak truth to power and stand up for those who are silenced, the fashion industry is a part of that conversation. We cannot let late stage capitalism and greed steal our joy and hope. For this episode of Sustainably LB, I got to share ...
