#130 - Isabelle Boemeke: Becoming A Nuclear Energy Influencer, Mastering TikTok, & Thinking Like A Scientist
In this episode of Auxoro, Zach travels with Isabelle Boemeke between two worlds she has managed to meld with an unusual mix of creativity, hard work, and optimism: The fashion industry and the world of nuclear energy. She has leveraged her success as a model to educate tens of thousands of followers about the challenge of climate change through her digital platforms. Cultivating a unique “character,” Isabelle has separated the facts from the fiction around nuclear energy with carefully vetted, thoughtful video content. Most impressive, she has managed to engage stakeholders in the renewable energy sector as well as in the nuclear energy industry, people who fear the power of fusion and those who believe it’s the only way to meet the demands of a developing world that hungers for electricity. Enjoy a conversation that will take you from the small Brazilian village in which Isabelle grew up to musings on atheism to transgenerational misconceptions regarding nuclear energy, radiation, and finding an environmental strategy that will improve the quality of life for citizens around the world.
