In this episode, Bard MBA student Seamus Heady interviews Kristy Drutman, founder of Brown Girl Green and Green Jobs Board, about using creative storytelling to make climate work feel human, joyful, and actionable. Kristy explains why leaning into joy and community helps sustain activism and prevent burnout, and how creators are becoming trusted intermediaries between insular institutions and wider audiences. She makes the case for bridging digital organizing with in-person "third spaces," from climate drag shows to her Green Jobs Pavilion Summit, and encourages aspiring storytellers to stay persistent and treat their work as a growing portfolio rather than chasing virality.
