Secondhand Sunday
Is that Christmas in the air, or is it capitalism? There’s no doubt about it: overconsumption degrades the planet. Enter Secondhand Sunday, a new-ish shopping holiday that’s nestled between Black Friday and Cyber Monday. It’s dedicated to all-things thrifted and redirects shoppers away from mass consumption and toward pre-loved items instead.
On today’s show Poshmark‘s Kelly Mason inspires us to think differently about shopping during the holidays.

Hi,
I love your podcast and am excited to hear the Secondhand Sunday episode as I love shopping in charity shops and online for preloved items. However – the link to the episode doesn’t seem to be there so I can’t listen to it! Don’t know why.
Hi Kate,
My apologies, I forgot to add the podcast player to the page! (Thanks for alerting me!) It’s all set now; alternatively, you should be able to access the episode via your favorite podcast player (Spotify, Apple Podcasts, etc). If you’re still having trouble please reach out and I’ll try to help.
Fondly,
Stephanie
