Dani Seatter talks going green: small changes can make a big difference!

Today’s guest is the lovely Dani Seatter, who I met whilst networking in the Cotswolds. Dani runs a sustainable lifestyle brand called Eco-able, and, at the time of recording, she’s also a published children’s author of two books. Both were sustainably printed and have a sustainable message. As well as an online shop, Dani also has a physical retail shop in Cirencester.After working as an early years professional for many years, Dani wanted her next career to be something that gave her purpose; something that would do some good in the world. After a conversation with her sister about Plastic Free July, and how difficult it was to find good products all in one place – that was her lightbulb moment.She talks about how many of us don’t always make the sustainable choices we should, because of the busy lives we lead and the pressures on our everyday lives. This is why she set up her business.Like me, Dani loves being involved in a community, and Cirencester, where she is based, is a community of independent shops and businesses where she is able to ask customers what they want, which helps her business to evolve. We also talk about all the other things she can get involved in within the community.Eco-able has applied for awards and found the process of applying very useful in terms of having to look closely at the business and recognise what you have done well. This year she has signed up as a judge for local awards.We discuss the media coverage that Eco-able has had and the variety of magazines and articles where the business has appeared.  And of course, we talked about sustainability and how businesses, and particularly small businesses can start to make changes in a manageable way.Dani finishes by telling me about the amazing plans she has for the next year or so.To contact Dani:Website: www.Eco-able.co.ukInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/eco_ableIf you would like to contact me, you can visit my www.Scottmedia.uk or join my free Facebook group here https://www.facebook.com/groups/prtribe
