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 and life has a funny way of bringing you right where you need to be. Even if you seemingly lose your way.

I am so honored that I got the chance to sit with Selina and talk about the ins and outs of the industry we hold dear and what really matters in this life.

I hope that you enjoy this episode as much as I enjoyed our conversation.

Show Notes:

• Change doesn't happen overnight
• Disputing the idea of what fashion and dressing is about
• A clear(er) picture of the result of our choices
• Being an artist, in any capacity, is about sharing your art
• Determining your own measurement of success

For this episode of Sustainably LB, I got to share space with Jamie Smith Artist, Creator of El Crisol Art and Spanish Teacher. Her inspiration for starting El Crisol came from her experience with injury and looking for the beauty in the unloved and overlooked moments in between what most consider the ideal aspects of life. 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 truth everything is connected and inspiration is everywhere. I hope you enjoy my interview with Jamie as much as I enjoyed our conversation.

Show Notes:

• Using art to capture emotions through memories
• Necessity breeds creativity
• Traveling through art
• The emotional effect of both clothing and art
• Unconsciously using clothing to speak to those that are looking for you

For this episode of Sustainably LB, I got to hold space with Lana Rose, Founder of Conscious Concierge. From being a former TV and Ad Executive stepped in hustle culture, to leading a heart-centered practice and way of life, each step along her path has led her to create Conscious Concierge. 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 practitioners in environments they can trust.

As I’ve said before, everything is connected and that couldn't be more true than with our body, mind and soul. I think many of us are just starting to realize that we are a soul in a body and that our mind is a precious tool if we can learn to control it. I hope you enjoy my interview with Lana as much as I enjoyed our conversation.

Show Notes:

• Treating the root cause(s), not the symptom(s)
• Strengthening our own voice and then listening to it
• Having the right tools for the moment and situation
• It isn’t profitable for us to be well
• Don’t quiet the messengers
