    Hello Sustainable Friends,

    🎧 Stress to Sustainability: Redefining Family Travels

    In this heart-centred episode, I’m joined by Debora Dielingen (Wanderlust Mama), a purpose-led traveller and visionary tour designer based in Amsterdam. Rooted in her Surinamese heritage and shaped by global experience, Debora is reimagining how families travel, shifting from stress to sustainability, and from sightseeing to soulful connection.

    We explore her journey from legal offices to curated family adventures, and the values that guide her mission: intention, empathy, and ease. Whether you're a parent, a fellow changemaker, or simply curious about mindful exploration, this conversation invites you to reframe travel as a gateway to memory-making, culture, and care.

    Please tune in and discover how simplicity, service, and storytelling can transform the way we move through the world 🌍

    Send us Fan Mail

    Hello Sustainable Friends,

    Welcome to my Podcast guest, Dorina Torje. She is from Romania, loves travelling and resides in Belgium. I found her real-life story inspiring. Amidst career shifts as an IT consultant, Dorina experienced the most dangerous stage of her 12-year struggle with insomnia. The sleeping pills she had relied on stopped working, even at triple the dose. Her body had reached its limit.

    Listen to how:

    1. She felt the universe had aligned to force her into a full reset.Β 

    2. She had to start from scratch, not just in her career, but in her life.Β 

    3. Became a junior IT team member again, relearning the fundamentals of AI.

    4. At the same time, being sent home by doctors with a simple but life-altering directive: take care of yourself, and relearn how to sleep.

    5. She took control of insomnia!

  • Ep. 40: Technology Ethics: How Can We Shape Artificial Intelligence?

    Send us Fan Mail

    Hello Sustainable Friends!

    Welcome to another episode of our Podcast titled, "Let's Act: Sustainably Developing Africa and Beyond."

    Our guest is Lisa Talia Moretti and our topic is, "Technology Ethics: How Can We Shape Artificial Intelligence?"

    Lisa Talia Moretti is a Digital Sociologist based in the UK. She holds an MSc in Digital Sociology with 17 years of experience working at the intersection of design research, social theory, and technology. Β 

    Lisa is the Chair of the AI Council at the British Interactive Media Association -BIMA and a Conversation Design Institute Foundation board member.

    Our conversation was informative and insightful from start to finish!

    Some key highlights from our discussion:

    • We must be problem-centric to find the right solutions for stakeholders and our data still needs to be protected
    • Consider if we have any problems at work that would benefit from AI tech
    • Minimize environmental impact globally as a lot of energy and fossil fuel is used to power data centresΒ 
    • The impact of technology shouldn't be detrimental to human life and nature
    • Humans still have a huge role to play as evidence indicates various AI tools can generate misinformation
    • There is a scale use of robotics in factories and warehouses to maximize efficiency, production, and economies of scale but fresh AI or knowledge-generating threats are evident in the creative industries
    • Job losses are evident in the creative spaces, especially for small 'gigs'
    • Lisa is originally from South Africa and finds to relax and immerse herself in creative writing, exercising, and much more. I also mentioned the places I have visited in SA - great memories for both of us!

    Enjoy!!!
