About
Remember life before cell phones? When people put glass bottles outside their doors to be RE filled for milk or whatever? When if something broke ya freaking fixed it? Like, with a metal wrench. ME NEITHER! BUT I want to go back! Whose comin' with me man?
This podcast is about my journey to taking things back to simpler times in sustainable ways. Less stuff, less waste, more fun. We don't have to buy everything and anything on trend. We don't have to eat chemicals. We don't have to wear things only once to be cool.
I'm just a girl trying to live simply, and "act simple"
Simply,
B.
