Respectfully, if you feel this way, maybe this line of work isn’t for you.

Ask for better pay, better benefits, and more opportunities to grow and make a difference. Don’t ask to work less than the people you represent.

I love a clean closet. The problem: the terrible environmental impact of throwing away clothes. Today's pod guest is Kristy Caylor - a badass innovator from fashion who is building a company to take on consumer fashion waste: @trashie_io.

When dad retired, I posted the things he taught me. That was before I had the podcast. I decided to bring back Coach (aka Mike Gaughan) for a special Father's Day episode. This was an incredibly special episode to make, and I hope that everyone loves "meeting" my dad!

As someone who has spent the my career - nearly 25 years - in / around media and digital media, it is easy to overlook the fact that digital has a big ol’ carbon footprint. Yes - 7.2 million tons of CO2 a year to be exact. In this week’s podcast, I explore this unique topic with Anne Coghlan, co-founder and COO of @Scope3data.

Anne and her team are on a mission to decarbonize digital media. In this episode, you’ll learn:

- The hidden physical forms of digital infrastructure and their environmental impact;
- The staggering carbon footprint of digital ad placements, and the low hanging fruit we can get by cleaning up “climate risk inventory”, which (spoiler alert) is low quality traffic we shouldn’t be buying anyway; and,
- Scope3's mission and innovative approaches to creating a sustainable future for digital media and advertising.

IMHO, this is required listening for anyone in digital. Tune in to learn how we can transform online advertising for a more sustainable future. Find the link below!

If you already live a comfortable life, then choosing to make more money but live a worse daily life is a bad trade.

And yet, we talk ourselves into it all the time. We take promotions that pay more, but swallow our free time. We already have a successful business, but we break ourselves trying to make it even more successful.

Too much focus on wealth, not enough focus on lifestyle.

Today's pod is cool, and not just colloquially -- but literally HVACs and refrigeration. The story of how it came to be is fascinating; the story of where it is going is critical to a sustainable future. Listen to my conversation with Manik Suri of @GlacierGrid, and hear how these sectors are ripe for disruption, innovation, profit growth and climate impact!

@Codie_Sanchez Truth. But @Codie_Sanchez this is a little disingenuous. According to the @APA, this is college students in general, not limited to Ivy League or Harvard. VERY MUCH worth addressing. But using just 1 school isn’t fair.
