It's fashion month! And in this episode, we explore how fashion goes beyond clothing, serving as a powerful tool for self-expression, shaping culture, and fostering empowerment.
From personal style reflecting identity to the cultural impact of iconic trends, we dive into fashion's influence on relationships, social interactions, and confidence. We also take a look at the future of fashion, including how sustainability and technology are redefining the industry.

Have you ever watched "Carol and the End of the World" on Netflix?
It's a weird and compelling show that subtly illustrates the dichotomy between pursuing ambition and appreciating the mundane aspects of daily life. Albeit, set in an apocolypse. However, this show has inspired our conversation today on how to balance ambition and mundanity in life.

Quote of the day: “There isn’t a single person out there who doesn’t have it. The hunger to do more, be more, live more. We all have it!” - Carol and The End of The World

Is this the key to fulfilment?

Ever thought, "I only buy fast fashion because it's cheap" or "I just can't afford sustainable brands"?

Fashion is everything—our style, comfort, and expression of self. But our planet is the ground we stand on, the air we breathe, and the home we live in. The fashion industry and climate change are two major topics that have been in focus for some time, but how do they impact each other? And how can our fashion choices help heal the planet? We explore these questions and more with Chemitei Janet, slow fashion educator and content creator.

Quote of the day: “We all wear clothes, so we have to give a hoot about our clothing choices and what that means to us and our planet.” - Chemitei Janet

Sustainable Brands/Companies Chemitei Suggests:

• Rummage Studio: upcycling brand using secondhand clothes from the market.
• Africa Collect Textiles: upcycling and recycling company, uses clothes collected from households.
• Lilabare: natural dying, upcycling, use rain-fed cotton for their fabrics.
• Ramissa Beauty From Waste: upcycling home decor brand, uses second-hand textiles for all their products.

In this episode of Notes and Quotes, we explore the complexities of fitting into racial and cultural expectations. Naomi shares their experience of being labeled an "oreo"—black on the outside, white on the inside—while growing up in Barbados.

Quote of the day: "We put stereotypes on ourselves. Everybody does that. But I think it's just a little harder for black kids to just be who they are." - Donald Glover/Childish Gambino

This episode highlights how internalized labels create feelings of inadequacy, the diversity within the black community and the importance of embracing your authentic self.
