Paige Wolf, Green PR Powerhouse #ThisWeekI

PR agents often promote their client’s causes, but Paige Wolf also makes a point to promote sustainability just as much as her clients.

I met Paige years ago, on an all-lady green panel and have followed her projects ever since. She’s enthusiastic, compassionate and an all-star Crossfit mom of two.

Let’s get to know Paige a little better:

Occupation: Publicist, Author, Blogger, Trying to help people live a little greener without losing their minds…
Fav part about Philly? It feels so small and managable – especially when you can walk and bike almost everywhere you want to go.
One thing you think everyone else should try: Join a CSA (community shared agriculture). It will force you to try new and healthy things and learn to be a better cook. And if you don’t feel like you will make the best use of everything, find a friend or neighbor to split your share!

Paige Wolf’s #ThisWeekI deeds:

  • Took my four-year-old out on what we call a “Mitzvah Walk” where we do good deeds. This week we picked up and threw away loads of cigarette butts (ew!)
  • Reported graffiti via the Philly311 App which is easy and works surprisingly well to get things done!
  • Convinced at least three people to switch to natural beauty products, including natural deodorants that work!

Now it’s time to get inspired and do well. Readers, tell us: What have you done this week? What are your goals? Join the convo in the comments below and on Twitter with #ThisWeekI.
