Starting out as a terrestrial ecologist and environmental educator, Jessie Panazzolo is a proud carer of people who care for Mother Earth. In 2019, she founded the global community, Lonely Conservationists, a pioneering platform that provides resources, advocacy, and a voice to budding and burnt-out environmentalists. Advocating for the need to provide care to members of an often forgotten care-based industry, Jessie's websites, books, podcasts, and workshops are used to help budding and burnt-out conservationists around the world.
