In this episode Dessie welcomes Janice Sommer - a model, podcast host, sustainability activist and sustainable business growth strategist. She is half German, half Singaporean, and has a MA in International Relations and Economics from the University of St Andrews. After a few years of corporate finance life, she completely switched careers to start working creatively as a model, podcaster and in the field of social entrepreneurship. She is passionate about finding smart solutions to help make the world of fashion more sustainable. In order to explore these topics, she founded and is the host of the podcast and blog "In Conscious Conversation" (https://www.inconsciousconversation.com/), which features interviews with the founders of sustainable fashion brands that are transparent across their entire supply chain, and make a real social impact. She is also part of Model Mafia (https://www.instagram.com/modelactivist/), an organization that fights for a fairer, safer, and more inclusive fashion industry. Janice is particularly excited about community-led entrepreneurship and innovation, and enabling sustainability-focused entrepreneurs and founders to learn from each other and tell their stories. They talk about career switches, what is it to be a model activist, and how to take better everyday fashion choices.
