About the Episode
Kyle and Sujane are co-founders of The Starfish, an organization which celebrates young environmental leaders by connecting them with a platform for storytelling and a community of change-makers. Our conversation flows around the importance of environmental stewardship for and by young people, and the value of head, heart and hands in that work.
