We celebrated #halloween a day early @wsl, and I opted to dress as one of my heroes, @gretathunberg. I challenged the @wslpure team (which is to say @jtsuhar), to do so, too, and he nailed it! The timing was perfect, as we also had our monthly all-staff meeting today, and I used my opportunity to speak to our team to talk about the CA wildfires, their connection to climate change, ocean warming, climate grief, courage (thanks Dr. Kate Marvel), and striking for the climate this FRI for Greta’s visit to LA. Thanks @ohitskim for braiding my hair (ok, wig). Thanks @jtsuhar for making great signs and for playing along. Thanks @annelisemcb for not freaking out when seeing my cleanly shaven face for only the 2nd time in our entire relationship.

It’s the little things. That can change someone’s trajectory and can stick with them forever. A high five, a pair of goggles, a lesson plan, a push into a wave, encouragement... all the little things add up, especially in the little fishing village of Lobitos, Peru. It’s been 3 years since we volunteered with @waves4dev so I shared some of the moments that stick with me today. Link in my bio if anyone cares to read :)
