EP 09: Fighting human trafficking and becoming a more mindful consumer with Melanie Conover

Welcome to this episode of the Women Changing The World podcast. In this episode, I interview Melanie Conover, who, in addition to her day job as a clinical social worker and director of people and culture at Sanctuary Night, is also a mindful consumer coach and a Remake Our World ambassador. Melanie empowers people to make more conscious decisions with their purchases and become advocates for better supply chain working conditions.

We talk about:

💛 Getting started in social work and what a career helping others looks like

💛 What human trafficking and modern-day slavery are and where they happen

💛 Global supply chains and why they matter

💛 What everyday consumers can do to create change

💛 How to take care of yourself so that you can serve other people
