In this episode, Michelle Alleyne sits down with Kate Williams for a grounded, eye-opening conversation about what real sustainability looks like when businesses choose to lead with intention. Together, they trace the origins and evolution of 1% For The Planet and unpack how a simple commitment to giving back has grown into a global model for collective responsibility.

Michelle and Kate dig into the brands that are doing it right, the ones proving that ethics and aesthetics don’t have to compete. They talk candidly about the practical steps small and midsize businesses can take right now, the power of community in driving environmental change, and why hope is not naïve but necessary.

This is an invitation to rethink how we shop, how we create, and how we show up for the planet every day. By the end, listeners will feel not just informed, but mobilized, ready to support the businesses building a healthier future and inspired to take meaningful action in their own lives.
