Episode Details

Join me for an important conversation with Laura Thompson and Sarah Sheridan from Clothing the Gaps about their "Not a Date to Celebrate" campaign. This episode explores how small businesses can create meaningful social change, the power of authentic advocacy, and practical ways you can get involved - whether you're in Australia or listening internationally.

This conversation covers the history behind why January 26th is problematic, how Clothing the Gaps successfully campaigned to "Free the Flag," and their current petition that's gained over 73,000 signatures. You'll learn about building effective campaigns, using your business platform for good, and why this 87-year-old conversation is more relevant than ever.
