    Confessions of a Podfader

    I developed this weird cough and my throat was hurting if I talked for more than a couple of minutes. Couple that with a state of environmental depression and a feeling of not being able to make a difference - and podfading for over a year made sense. Now, more than ever, having the conversation about creating a more sustainable way of life, is important. Let me know if you want to be part of this conversation

    Buiding a Homestead with Aircrete

    Mike, a disabled Veteran, is building a Homestead in the South after losing his home due to his injuries. He used recycled building materials like pallets to build immediate shelters for his extended family. Eventually, he is planning on building weatherproof dome houses with Aircrete blocks. In this episode, Mike explains what Aircrete is, how it is made, and why he feels it is a superior building material.   He is in need of a tractor to work the 12 acres of land and to build the homes.

    Sustainable Fashion

    Garik is the founder of Eco-Stylist, a stylishly curated collection of eco-conscious menswear. 3 years ago he quit his corporate job to start chasing his fears, with his long-term dream of starting a social venture. Fear chasing lead him to the University of Iowa where he pursued an MBA and got the chance to push against many fears, including practicing public speaking, taking an acting class, and rock climbing. This May he completed the MBA, but instead of pursuing full-time work, he took the leap and led Eco-Stylist through the startup accelerator at the University of Iowa, and is now bootstrapping the company fulltime from Iowa City, IA. He helps men find clothes that look good and make a positive impact, while also sharing knowledge about sustainable buying habits, recycling your clothes, and much more.   Links to Garik's website and social media: Website: www.Eco-Stylist.com   Instagram: @yourecostylist     Links to projects he loves:   Brands: Adelante Shoe Company: https://adelanteshoes.com/ Apolis Global Citizen: https://www.apolisglobal.com/ Dick Moby: https://dick-moby.com/ No Nasties: https://www.nonasties.in/   Fashion Podcasts Wardrobe Crisis: https://www.clarepress.com/podcast Conscious Chatter: https://consciouschatter.com/   Research Resources: B Corp Directory: https://bcorporation.net/directory Fashion Revolution Transparency Index: https://www.fashionrevolution.org/about/transparency/   Movies: The True Cost: Documentary available on Netflix   Eco-Stylist Recycling Article: https://www.eco-stylist.com/how-to-make-a-positive-impact-recycling-your-old-clothes/    Find the Sustainable Living Podcast   We love your support!

    Teri Page on Homesteading with Children

    Teri is a long time homesteader and homesteading blogger known as Homestead-Honey. Here is the bio from her book that tells you more about her: "Teri Page is the blogger behind the popular homesteading website, Homestead-Honey.com. Her homesteading adventures have taken her from Oregon, where she planted her first vegetables and fell in love with a dirt-covered lifestyle, to Missouri, where her family built an off the grid homestead from scratch and lived in a 350 square-foot tiny house without running water, to Vermont, where she now lives with her husband and two children." Our conversation centered on her experiences that led her to become a leader in the Homesteading community and to writing this book.

He build his own tiny house on wheel in 2012, and has been passionately helping future tiny house dwellers on their journey ever since. Ethan's guide, Tiny House Decisions, has helped thousands of readers answer the big questions about tiny houses and plan each system in their future home. He's also the creator and host of Tiny House Lifestyle Podcast, a show that brings you conversations with tiny house luminaries, builders, and DIYers. Ethan and his wife Ann live in their tiny house part-time in Northern Vermont.    In our discussion we go over all the amazing aspects of Ethan's book, podcast and how he enjoys tiny house dwelling. We go over the important role research is in designing and planning your tiny house, which is why he wrote Tiny House Decisions. When he was looking for information during his build, he couldn't find much of anything, so his book was born. I am excited to say his new book on tiny house parking is coming out so definitely check his website for updates. Ethan has truly enjoyed living in a tiny house and thankful for the sustainability it offers, the financial freedom and community of people it brings. His words of wisdom is to surround yourself with those who have been on this journey to help you on your tiny house journey.            Tiny House Lifestyle Podcast: https://thetinyhouse.net/thlp   Tiny House Decisions: https://www.thetinyhouse.net/tiny-house-decisions/   facebook.com/buildingthetinyhouse   instagram.com/ethan.waldman   instagram.com/ethanwaldman
