About the episode
This week we get to share in the laughs with Di and Nicola as they catch up on Nicola’s latest European adventure and Di’s spring skiing trip to Thredbo - from jet skiing and super yachts to grounding and icy dips in the river, it’s always fun to hear what they’ve been up to. After that, Di and Nicola chat with the passionate and inspiring Mandy Spooner about simple changes you can make to contribute to an eco-friendly planet. Mandy is known as the Eco Warrior, who loves educating and helping others with ways they can reduce the amount of toxins and plastic in their lives. She shares so many practical tips in this episode, that are all really doable, so we can’t wait for you to listen in. In this chat, we hear how Mandy got started on this journey after reading an article in 2017 about how takeaway coffee cups aren't recyclable. Mandy couldn’t believe what she was reading and went down the rabbit hole of finding out everything you need to know about single use plastic and researching different alternatives and ways that we can all live a more eco-friendly existence. Since that day, more than 5 years ago, she hasn’t looked back and thankfully, she’s now educating so many others about this important issue. Far from being doom and gloom, Mandy shares about the great companies and initiatives that are out there and the progress that we’re making in recycling and sustainability. She’s confident that if we all take small steps and inspire those around us, we can really achieve great things together. We’re so grateful that Mandy flew down from the Sunshine Coast to be with us in our Sydney studio and we hope you feel as motivated as we did after speaking to her.
