In this episode of Global Goodness, we dive into the empowering world of Old Ladies Against Underwater Garbage.
These women may be retired, but they’re far from done. Trading rocking chairs for snorkelling gear, they’re taking a bold stand for pond health in Cape Cod, USA —and challenging outdated ideas about age, activism, and what women are "supposed" to do. I had the honour of interviewing Allison Leschen and Trish Cory from the Old Ladies Against Underwater Garbage, OLAUG, and I'm excited to share with you their pearls of wisdom.
You’ll learn:
How they’re tackling underwater pollution one pond at a time
Why aging can be a superpower—and how they’re redefining what it means to grow older with purpose
How feminist values of equality, visibility, and defiance help drive their mission
Why their story is about more than just cleaning up garbage—it’s about reclaiming voice, value, and agency at any age
Tune in for a wave of wisdom, grit, and global goodness you won’t want to miss.
