April describes herself as a mother, partner, engineer, and advocate for sustainability.

However, it drives her professional work aspiring for sustainable power generation and is reflected in her home and lifestyle.

What do we mean by Sustainable?

We mean maintaining a healthy balance. We want to consider the environment, our impacts as humans on the planet, our consumer behaviors, our relationships with family, friends, nature, and biodiversity, and our personal well-being. We also look to the stability of society as a whole, particularly the role of everyday Australians in maintaining balance and working towards achieving the energy transition and NetZero by 2050.

Many eco, green, clean, zero waste, plastic free, carbon neutral, net-zero claims and sites are dedicated to their own brand of ‘friendly’ lifestyle. Here, we look to showcase different aspects of each, but overall, we aim to show that achieving balance and purposefully living a sustainable life requires more than one approach. We are guided by our core values of Family, Empowerment, Environment, and Discovery with Jewell Purpose’s vision for us to all have a sustainable future.


Purposefully Live a Sustainable Life!
