We're both fascinated by this notion of regeneration; yes, of soils and Nature, but in our case, most particularly the regeneration of the human spirit. We have committed to exploring the topic in a series of short (around 10 min) podcasts.
This is our first episode and we look forward to diving deeper into this exploration with you. If you have comments or questions, do post them and we'll aim to explore as many as we can in future episodes.

Gretha Oost is inspiring. An inventor, an entrepreneur, a community member and a true believer that together, we can make the world a better place. Gretha has built a beautiful initiative called "1million mini missions" to help people to come together to do what they each can do. All on their own, these mini missions are beautiful, but together, they represent a catalyst to inspire social change from the ground up, by focusing on what's possible, that which binds us together, not what divides us. https://www.1mmm.org/

In this episode, I discuss the process of bringing change in some of the world's largest industries, and within the hearts of the people involved.
I share something of my career and experience finding a path to change, and my understanding of what it means to change. Change happens deep within the human heart, not in the mind. Logical arguments and criticism often have little impact on industry leaders, but impactful change often came from being guided to approach things with their heart and their values.
