Environmentalist Heather White on eco-anxiety & the connection between protecting our planet & self-care. We have a planet to save & it’s going to take all of us.
These environmental times are “code red” for humanity. But the more we learn about the crisis, the easier it is to become paralyzed or experience eco-anxiety. Environmentalist Heather White shares her optimism about the future and her upcoming book One Green Thing, which includes an enneagram for discovering your unique sustainability superpower.
