REPLAY: This episode is from the vault and premiered on November 23, 2022.

Sabs Katz, a dynamic creator and co-founder of Intersectional Environmentalists, joins us for a conversation that sheds light on the entwined paths of identity, activism, and environmentalism. Sabs courageously shares their experiences confronting anti-Semitism while navigating the world of social justice and environmental advocacy through a Jewish and vegan lens. We explore the vital role of setting boundaries with media and the importance of acknowledging diverse perspectives to create a more inclusive movement that tackles pressing social issues like the water crisis in Flint, Michigan.

Our discussion takes an intriguing turn as Sabs reveals how adopting a vegan and zero-waste Lifestyle transformed their approach to sustainability. Initially skeptical of aligning with advertising, they discovered its potential to deliver powerful sustainability messages. Together, we examine the dual nature of social media in activism, recognizing its power to amplify voices and create inclusive spaces for change. We touch on eco-Anxiety and the hurdles posed by systemic barriers, yet find hope in effective communication and acknowledging solutions that inspire climate action.

We celebrate the mission of Intersectional Environmentalists, where Sabs and their co-founders aim to blend social justice with environmentalism through community engagement and digital initiatives like Earth Sessions. Sabs shares personal stories of sustainable fashion, finding inspiration in vintage Family pieces, and the broader implications of mindful shopping. Through these narratives, we embrace the power of creative wardrobe choices and the joy they bring, highlighting how these acts resonate deeply in the quest for a sustainable future.

As I stumbled through the perils of answering the ultimate question, "what do you want to do with your life?" I knew somehow my answer would incorporate helping others. This translated into paths that, when I tuned into the universe, I realized were very connected. (Funny how that always happens!)

People are complicated, messy, and layered with identities. So is this space. I am a meditation enthusiast that sits in quietness every morning and a lover of blasting 90's hip-hop at full volume. I'm a gym rat and a yoga instructor. I am both learner and a teacher. We are all many things. Together we can make them all work.

I love to share all the things I'm learning along the way. Learning how to be your most fabulous self but being honest about how damn hard and messy it can be along the way lets you speak your truth. It allows you to best use your voice for the causes that matter to you. Let's get healthy and change the world together!
