Lady Amelia Windsor

I listen to audiobooks: the last one was Vivienne Westwood's biography. She's the most amazing woman. The way she's used her platform in fashion to be an activist and promote causes like global warming, climate change, and inequality in the world... It gives high fashion, what seems like it can be 'for a certain group,' a way to help real causes.

I'm a very slow reader - I read maybe three or four books a year - so I listen to podcasts and the occasional audiobook, and I watch TED talks.
