Hi ATTAINABLE listeners! I'm excited to get this podcast going but before I do, I thought it would be beneficial to start at the beginning with a one-on-one episode explaining why ATTAINABLE is hosting a podcast in the first place, and why we are so excited about inspiring optimistic people to break bad habits. Right now, there's a lot of talk in the media and in politics about “climate change”. And a fast approaching (if not immediate) urgency to “ACT NOW”. But what is happening to Our Planet, really? And why should we care? In this podcast we'll learn why, together.

When it comes to the health of Our Planet, are you an optimist? Get inspired and learn how to be more sustainable in your daily life with The Attainable Podcast.
