[Issue 061] Introducing the new ABL podcast

I am SO excited to finally share a project I've been working on: a podcast miniseries where I interview passionate people about the issues they care about and the actions they take to make this world a better place!
 

Each episode is 20-30 minutes long and perfect for your daily commute. You can find more info on each interview below.

A special shoutout goes to ABL patrons Camiel, Mekaelia, Farah, Emily and Angelica for being adventurous and testing out this idea with me. 🙏🏾 

I still have so much to learn here, so PLEASE let me know your thoughts and share any advice you have to offer.

So don't be shy, just hit reply!!

❤️
Nikita

...I crack myself up, if you can't tell! 😂
