Wait. Is Greenwashing a Form of Lovebombing? Plus, Reworking Ties & Tampons with Reverend Sophie

Meet Reverend Sophie. Aka Sophie Woods - co-director of Bleaq, mother to the tampon chaps, tie reworker, and self-proclaimed chazza shopper (what is a chazza??). Let’s hangout with this UK-based designer and talk about the value of shock value and the horrors of greenwashing. But… with a TNR! twist. We’re going to do a little dating. Isn’t greenwashing kind of like love bombing anyways? We’ll leave it to the Reverend to preach.
