“Hope is not a lottery ticket. It’s a battering ram.”
In this inspiring and deeply human episode of the Unbreakable Podcast, Kait Dinunzio sits down with global human rights and environmental activist Etelle Higonnet, founder of Coffee Watch ( www.coffeewatch.org ), a movement fighting to end deforestation, exploitation, and child labor in the global coffee industry.
Together, they dive into:
-How coffee became the world’s 6th biggest driver of deforestation, and how we can change that.
-The power of hope as action, and why it’s the only antidote to despair.
-How AI can help save our planet, and the dangers if we don’t use it wisely.
-The emotional resilience it takes to keep fighting for what’s right, even when you’re running on empty.
-And how you can become a sustainable coffee ninja, one ethical choice at a time.
This conversation is raw, unfiltered, and full of heart, reminding us that leadership, activism, and change all begin the same way: with love, hope, and action.
