Allie: Glad to be with you, Spiffy! ETTA stands for Earthlings Taking to Action. We are significantly reducing the carbon impact and waste of the fashion industry through AI and omni-reality technologies. Did you know that 10% of carbon emissions come from the fashion industry?
Luciana: Glad to be with you, Spiffy! For starters, I realized that the Brazilian legislative branch operates far below its potential and systematically fails to address the needs of the population. Brazil has a 40% rate of political renewal in every election. However, simply changing elected officials is not enough to make politics work. In the last term, politicians scored—on a scale from zero to ten—an average of 2.8 in productivity. We believe that the key to unlock the potential of the legislative branch is by helping political cabinets deliver. To do that, we pull three leverages of systemic change: (i) diversify the talent of political staff, (ii) build capacity among current political advisors, (iii) promote accountability.

And so PepTalkHer and its app were born!
