KISS OVERWHELM GOODBYE

SUSTAINABLE SELF RESPONSIBILITY

BEGINS HERE

The whole

‘Put your own oxygen mask on before assisting others’

line is used far too often but with good reason. It’s wise words! Here at Sustainability in Style we know that getting up each day and fighting the good fight for people and planet can be tough work. With the urgency of climate change, species extinction, and social inequality (just to name a few) it’s easy to dive into frontline battle to affect change. While you might make waves with your impressive dive and have some short-term wins. It’s likely that, in the longer term, this all-in approach will see you war weary and ineffective. Frankly stated, this approach is not in alignment with Sustainable Self as most people cannot sustain this level of input for the long haul. 

We’ve been on this Sustainably Stylish path for over a decade. During this time, we’ve had fabulous wins and crushing lows, and learnt a great deal about how to support Sustainable Self for the long haul.

These resources and techniques are here for those who are fighting the good fight in Sustainable Style. 

TOOLS YOU CAN USE

SUPPORT FOR SUSTAINABLE SELF

STRESS AND SUSTAINABLE SELF 

Many of the sustainability issues that we face today are the result of a lack of self-responsibility. Due to the urgency of many of our social, economic, and environmental crisis it can be tempting to try to tackle all of the world’s problems at once. If you choose to jump head first into all of it and share this journey with others (especially online) it is likely that you will be commended for your enthusiasm and for seeming indefatigability. But, unless you are superhuman, you will eventually burn out in your attempt to do all-the-sustainable-things all at the same time.
