    I loved having this challenge on my mind when I was out and about this weekend!! I really helped me think about my choices... I made more drinks at home vs. getting them out and was really conscious about saying "no thank you" for straws. I did a lot of walking (okay it doesn't hurt that I have adopted a new dog)! I've put a time limit app on my instagram and that has been working amazingly for me! YAY!

      It's so great to hear about your awesome experience! I have a puppy and he makes me active outside as well! I didn't know that IG and time limits are connected thats pretty neat. Saying no to straws is a habit I had to develop, now if only I can get into the habit of bringing my own reusable straw! Thank you for sharing Natalia!

    Really excited for this! I love to live as eco friendly as possible, but I feel like the pandemic has brought down my commitment a bit (less reusable cups brought to the coffee shops, more takeout than dine-in. etc) so I'm generating way more waste than I had been previously which I'm not happy about. I love having group accountability towards change and I love that this challenge also brings in aspects of simplifying life as well. Let's have fun & transform together!
