The B Better Podcast

Do Good Jobs is about connecting great people, to do good. They connect passionate, talented people (aka do-gooders) with work vacancies that aim to create social and environmental change. Job listings are from not-for-profit, NGOs, charities and social enterprises in New Zealand which focus on good causes including international development, community jobs, "green" environmental jobs, conservation jobs and more.

Tim had a chat with Sarah from their team to help the unpack all things B Corp. You can check out the blog about that over here!

"My passion is to inspire sustainable change from the ground up."

The Whole Story was founded in 2020 by Becks Smith who saw an opportunity to address challenges she was facing personally and to inspire positive change in the agricultural sector.

Becks has been working in agriculture since 2009 as a rural mixed-practice Veterinarian and she now also farms a 700ha Sheep, Beef and Deer property with her husband & family.

With a life-long passion for sustainability, Becks established The Whole Story as a Social Enterprise using the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals as a framework for inspiring, facilitating and articulating conscious, holistic sustainability on farms.

She is one seriously awesome lady with a big vision on a big mission!

In July 2022 The Whole Story was proud to join the community of B Corporations™ globally. But our B Corp™ journey started well before that, in fact, the entire business was designed around the B Corp™ framework!

Check out our chat with Becks as we explore her journey to going B Corp and Beyond.

You can also get more content from Becks on her own Podcast "The Whole Story" over here.

This is a combo set of two conversations with Mark Longbottom from the Purposely Podcast.

In this episode, we explore: 

- ‘Business for good’ and the exciting and growing B Corp Movement

- My career and dissatisfaction with profit-only or at-all-costs paradigms.  

- We also go deep on the ideas of purpose and identity and even ask who is the real Tim Jones?

In this episode, I got talking to John Holt and Mitchell Winton-Smith on the TBC Podcast.

We get (very) philosophical about purpose. We also chat about the siloed nature of ESG, ambition's correlation with insecurity (and hedonism), John learns how many letters are in the alphabet, regulation's role in company constitutions, the problem with short tenures of executives, some cool stats for us, John and I get competitive with their anecdotes, Mitch struggles to keep up, and how to start the B Corp process.

Equal parts entertaining and insightful, this episode is a real ride. 

As John said, "Tim's an awesome human, and we'll certainly be referring back to this conversation—and his invaluable advice—as we continue on our entrepreneurial journey."

Jamie Cashmore from twiice is on a real mission to rid the world of the often non-compostable, compostable cups that are often touted as the best solution to single-use cups.

Handmade in New Zealand in small batches, the twiice edible cup is no-waste and no dishes. You won't find anything artificial in it either — we only use real ingredients, free from additives and preservatives, so it's not just edible — it's delicious!

In this chat we talk to Jamie about how he came up with the idea, the challenges of running a purpose-driven start-up with family members, how and why he chose to Certify as a B Corp and much more.
