Some conversations bring out a fire you didn’t even know you had. That’s exactly what happened when I spoke with Johan Jensen, host of the Spiritual Emergency Podcast.
Johan encouraged me to dive deep into topics I often hesitate to touch on, yet are deeply relevant to regenerative career transitions.
In today’s episode, I’m sharing a powerful extract from our conversation—the one that, in my own words, “lights an angry fire in me.” Johan and I tackled two big topics I’ve had an evolving relationship with: corporate sustainability and climate tech. As someone who spent over a decade devoted to climate tech, I’m now looking at the field through a new lens—one that reveals its limitations in driving systemic change and true transformation.
I want to share this with you because I see so many people, with the best intentions, entering the sustainability space only to be swallowed by the corporate machine. I’ve lived the experience of believing in a sector’s power to create change, only to see it held back by a lack of systemic and intersectional awareness.
In this episode, we’ll explore why sustainability without system change is simply a sticking plaster and why, if you’re moving into this space, it’s crucial to have your eyes wide open. My hope is that you focus your efforts on creating meaningful change that truly makes an impact.
Tune in to learn:Why sustainability without systems change is just a sticking plaster
How my experience in climate tech has shaped my view on real transformation
Key questions to ensure your work in sustainability aligns with what truly matters

What do you do when work feels unfulfilling, meaningful creative projects are calling you, but you still have to pay the mortgage? How do you nurture the seed of an idea and test whether it can grow into a viable regenerative business concept?
This was the Sticking Point I explored with Harrie, in person, by a stream in my local woodland. Harrie came to me at a turning point, with a contract coming to an end and a series of great-on-paper jobs leaving her unfulfilled. She was yearning for more human interaction, greater immersion in nature, and a connection to her love of local projects—specifically sustainable land-workers. What Harrie lacked was the confidence and clarity to take those first steps.
Together, we worked through these uncertainties, helping Harrie gain the clarity and confidence she needed to take her first steps.
In our coaching conversation, we explore:
Removing financial pressure from the early stages of a creative, regenerative project.
Breaking down an ambitious project into manageable steps that bring you joy.
The importance of believing in your idea and reminding yourself of the difference you want to make in the world.
This episode is for you if you’re ready to reconnect with your creativity, pursue those “impossible” ideas, and build the foundations for a regenerative business.
Come and sit by the stream with us, listen to the flowing water, and immerse yourself in the woodland and this inspirational conversation.

In this episode, I address a common fear that holds many professionals back from pursuing regenerative careers: the belief that they lack the right qualifications. Drawing from my personal journey transitioning from acting to leading a climate tech startup, I challenge the notion of being "unqualified" and emphasize the unique value each person brings to regenerative work.
I offer three actionable steps to help you connect your skills and experience to regenerative opportunities:
1. Identify Your Core Strengths
Strip away corporate jargon and list your skills in simple, child-friendly terms. This exercise reveals the essence of your abilities, making them more transferable to new roles.
2. Craft Your Authentic Career Narrative
Embrace your current career stage, including any pauses or transitions. I explain why these periods of stillness are essential for growth and how they align with nature's rhythms.
3. Take Small, Consistent Steps
Rather than fixating on a distant career goal, focus on daily, manageable actions that move you in the right direction. I share a client's story to illustrate how even tiny steps can overcome significant obstacles.
Throughout the episode, I emphasize that regenerative work spans far beyond a handful of specialized roles. It requires a diverse range of skills and experiences to reshape our economies and societies.
For those ready to dive deeper, I invite you to email your completed "homework" to [email protected] with the subject line "Homework" for personalized feedback.

In this intimate episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes on my two-year journey from climate tech entrepreneur to regenerative career mentor. It's a story of trust, curiosity, and embracing the unknown – essential elements for anyone considering a similar transition.
I share my personal struggles with letting go of the corporate mindset and allowing myself to explore unconventional paths. From forest bathing to "coaching in the wild," each seemingly frivolous experience played a crucial role in shaping my current work.
Redefining Purpose
I challenge the common narrative around finding your purpose, offering a fresh perspective that aligns with regenerative principles. Instead of viewing purpose as a destination, I invite you to see it as:
A feeling of connection
Alignment with your values
A garden to be cultivated
Lessons from the Journey
My story illustrates four key takeaways for those embarking on their own regenerative career transition:
1. Create Space - Learn why giving yourself time (and often, financial breathing room) is crucial for authentic exploration.
2. Embrace Play - Discover the power of childlike curiosity and how it can lead to unexpected breakthroughs.
3. Trust Your Curiosity - I explain why following seemingly random interests might be the key to unlocking your path.
4. Mind Your Thoughts - Understand how to navigate the internal voices of doubt and societal expectations.
This episode offers a raw, honest look at the messy, non-linear process of aligning your career with regenerative principles. If you're feeling lost or questioning your next steps, my story might just give you the permission and inspiration you need to keep exploring.

Immerse yourself in the second part of my conversation with Ryan James as we explore the profound shifts required for truly regenerative work.
Today, we delve into the interconnectedness of all things and challenge the compartmentalised thinking that often keeps us stuck in unsustainable patterns.
Ryan invites us to:
Reconsider our relationship with common terms like "regenerative" and "circular economy"
Embrace the discomfort of change as we align our work (and lifestyles) with planetary needs
Reconnect with the elements that sustain us, starting with a powerful daily practice
We discuss the importance of "re-association" – remembering our connection to the earth and all its systems. This process involves:
1. Examining our surroundings
2. Embracing grief as a catalyst
3. Shifting our perspective on success
For those feeling the call to more purposeful work, this episode offers an Earth-rooted perspective on what that journey might entail. It's not just about finding a new job – it's about fundamentally reshaping our relationship with the world around us.

I'm joined by spiritual guide Ryan James to discuss redefining success and purpose through a regenerative lens. We explore the profound importance of who we are and where we are as a foundation for meaningful career change.
Building on indigenous wisdom, Ryan invites us to:
Reassociate with the land beneath our feet and its history
Recognise Earth as a living, evolving being rather than a resource
Shift our perspective on purpose and success
We discuss how the journey to a regenerative worklife begins internally, contrary to the action-oriented mindset many of us default to. Ryan explains:
The interconnectedness of our internal and external worlds
How Earth's evolution influences our own consciousness
The true meaning of "crisis" and "emergency" as opportunities for growth
This episode invites you to reconsider your definition of success and explore what it truly means to live a purpose-driven, regenerative life.

In this episode, I explore what defines a truly regenerative career and offer guidance for those who are navigating a sustainable job search while trying to avoid corporate greenwash.
I share insights on how corporations often co-opt progressive language for their own benefit and explain why terms like "sustainable," "green," and "impact" may not always align with truly regenerative practices.
This episode invites you to:
• Challenge your existing paradigms about work and impact
• Consider the broader ecosystem affected by your career choices
• Develop a more nuanced understanding of regeneration in practiceI'll share 4 essential definitions that will help you to identify truly regenerative opportunities and avoid the pitfalls of corporate greenwashing in your pursuit of purposeful, planet-supporting work.
The path to a regenerative career isn't always linear or straightforward. Embrace the complexity, sit with difficult questions, and trust in your ability to contribute to positive change.
The definitions in this episode were inspired by the work of Kasper Benjamin Reimer Bjørkskov, you can follow him on LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kasper-benjamin-reimer-bj%C3%B8rkskov-660a4899/
