S2, E10: Community and Environmental Justice with Imani Maxberry
Description
My favorite start to any Take Nothing When I Die Episode is when I have been speaking to my guest for 30 minutes and we haven't even begun recording!
In today's episode, I spoke with Imani Maxberry (They/Them). Finding a love for the outdoors as a child, they are currently pursuing an M.S. in Urban Studies with a concentration in Urban Sustainability at Georgia State. They also hold a B.S. in Coastal Environmental Science from LSU, and have 4 years of experience working in a nationally-recognized biological analytical science laboratory under Dr. Victor H Rivera-Monroy. Since their return, Imani has implemented several environmental initiatives, community conversations and orchestrated multiple community service events, including community clean-ups and supply drives.
Join us as we speak about:
- Why their goal is to be a Noble Peace Prize Winner
- When Imani is having self doubts, what validates them
- What internal & external validations look and feel like
- How Imani attracted being an environmental scientist into their life
- The importance of work, life, play balance
- Why Imani refuses to give into the grind culture
- Imani authentically showing up as themselves
