Our recent conversation with Fat and the Moon founder and creatrix Rachel Budde is inspired by a recent Fat and the Moon newsletter, discussing wellness cultures' relationship to the on-going polycrises. When do companies stand up and share their values, and when does their silence become deafening? Rachel discusses the importance of finding inspiration outside of mainstream culture, finding inspiration in the margins, and what it means to run a conscious wellness business in late stage capitalism.
