EPISODE TEN: MELATI WIJSEN

"We need to lead by love, not by fear and worrying about what people think about us, but understanding that it's about the bigger picture.'"

Melati Wijsen is a world-renowned activist, environmentalist, and youth leader from Indonesia, who has gone against the current every day since she was 12 years old when she co-founded Bye Bye Plastic Bags.

Now at 19, she is a co-founder of three organizations: Bye Bye Plastic Bags, Mountains Mamas, and Youthtopia. 52 Hertz host Petrice Jones and Melati discuss youth empowerment, ways traditional education has failed students, and if she’s sacrificed a ‘normal’ childhood.
