18. Unwrapped - The balance between shopping ethically while staying on budget - a podcast by Tom Watson and Olivia Gee

Let’s face it, we all love a sneaky trip to the shops, but is it possible to indulge in a bit of retail therapy while staying ethical (and on budget)? That’s the question Liv and Tom are asking on today’s episode of The Finance Burrito.

As a part of our sustainability-themed season, Tom and Liv will discuss the damage intensive shopping and consumption is doing to our planet (it’s not good, ya’ll) and what it actually means to shop ethically in 2021. They’ll also share super easy tips on how you can take small steps toward shopping sustainably without blowing the budget.

And to really seal the sustainability deal, our hosts sit down with the founder of Zero Co, Mike Smith. Just in case you were wondering, Zero Co is a new online business with the goal of providing Aussies with a genuinely sustainable alternative in the cleaning and hygiene space.

They’ll chat about why Mike decided to start the company, how it works, and his future plans to achieve a 100% sustainable online shopping experience.
