When you think you’ve hit rock bottom, hand over to your creative brain to get you out of the mess. That’s what Celia Gaze did when she was under the threat of bankrupty. She came up with the idea to put one of her beloved llama’s in bow tie and post the image across social media. It went viral and her Well being Farm hasn’t looked back since.

If you’d like to know how she managed to dodge corporate burnout, then near-bankruptsy, to go on to create a fun, unique wedding and events venue that’s sustainable and puts wellbeing back into the heart of events then listen to this episode with Celia Gaze, Founder of The Wellbeing Farm.

It's one of the first B Corp Certified venues in the UK and one that is powered by a wind turbine, committed to its local community and a partner to a charity empowering women in Kenya.

She shows us how we can go from mid-life crisis, new parenthood, or corporate burnout to finding the essential thing that we want to spend our life doing, whether that’s for the benefit of ourselves and our loves ones, our local and global community, and for the planet itself.

This is what better business looks like and how responsibility for people and the planet starts at home.

“Why should we care about what goes on in our prisons?”

If you are interested in looking at humanity, resilience and the complexity of people, and the conditions, chaos, confusion, compassion & conflict in our prisons, listen to this episode with former Prison Officer Alex South. 

Alex worked  in some of the toughest men’s jails in the UK and is the Author of Behind These Doors, which opens up a place heavy with suffering, where you will find dangerous, vulnerable, and forgotten people, behind walls so high they are out of sight & out of mind. But at what cost?

Alex reveals a world behind bars that is in fact a reflection of the society we have created, and that if we want a better world, we need to find better ways to fix a failing justice system, and rehabilitate those who returning to our communities, so that we help the vulnerable and give more opportunity to those willing and able to make amends.

What’s the point of public art and why does it matter? 

If you’re interested in becoming more engaged and present with the world around you have a listen to this week’s guest Patricia Walsh, public art consultant, who explores the intersections of art and the natural and built environments and shows how it helps us press pause and get present with the power of art in our public places.

Patricia opens our eyes to how art in the public spaces and places around us can lift our everyday experience, help us to become more aware, appreciative and alive in the present moment, as well as engaging us in reflective thought, protest and participation with the issues that matter to us, to our communities, culture and the world we want to protect. 

We cover:

Community
Commissioning
Conflict
Controversy
Conservation
Climate Change
Coherence
Connection
Calm

Patricia shows us how public art can give us pause for thought, help us connect with our environment, and bring meaning to our lives.

How can we start to tread more lightly as responsible guardians of our planet, of our bodies, of our businesses? 

If you are interested in how a chocolate business began making chocolate that’s better for us and better for the planet, listen to this week’s guest Neena Vaswani, co-founder of Prodigy snacks – the B-corp chocolate company that is both climate & more gut friendly.

Prodigy makes chocolates which are a well loved part of our lives.  It's an impact driven chocolate brand that exists to help people make healthier food choices every day.   

Inspired by the classics, Neena and her husband Sameer (the Willy Wonka half of the duo) wanted to reinvent our favourite chocolate bars and biscuits, only better.  Better because they use 100%  natural, plant based ingredients, high quality single origin cacao and a uniquely low percentage of natural sugar.  They  are also the UK’s first plastic negative chocolate bar, carbon neutral and proud to be B Corp.  Every bar sold funds the clean-up of the equivalent of 10 ocean bound plastic wrappers.  

But it's all well and good be a consciously impactful chocolate brand, but it's still got to taste delicious. Find out more about Neena does this on her mission to taking on the big boys in confectionary.

Listen to this episode as Neena points the way to treading more lightly on this planet, with others and with ourselves, and for giving us classic-style chocolate treats that we can enjoy in good conscience.

You can find our more about Neena’s work on https://www.prodigysnacks.com/
