Jen is an “ordinary, knackered mum of two” whose life changed when she dragged and cajoled the family into a year buying nothing new. That year changed not only what she buys, but also how she sees her place in the world. Jen recognised the power that we all have as individuals to make a difference to the things we care about, simply through getting informed about the impact of our daily choices, and figuring out easy swaps and changes.

She is the author of The Sustainable(ish) Living Guide and The Sustainable(ish) Guide to Green Parenting, a qualified coach and Carbon Literacy Trainer and the host of the Sustainable(ish) podcast.
