This episode features a prime example of the power of relationship-building and community-building in the world of ocean advocacy. Jenna and her guest, Casey Darling Kniffin, originally crossed paths during one of Healthy Ocean Coalition(HOC)'s Healthy Ocean Advocacy Academies. Following the Academy, Casey became an active and valued member of the HOC community, stepped into an ocean advocacy leadership role as Florida Oceanographic Society's Advocacy Coordinator, and now, as announced on the show, Conservation Policy Director for Florida Wildlife Federation. Casey is a driven changemaker whose leadership is very much needed in the conservation space. She's a true partner and visionary in this work, and Jenna is honored to call her a friend - and feature her story on this month's episode.
