The Sustainable Shift Podcast

In today's episode on The Sustainable Shift Podcast, I share very openly and honestly my experience of running my very first virtual retreat.  One of my BIGGEST takeaways is if you want to make that impact do that thing that absolutely scares the bejesus out of you.  Because this is the sweet spot where you are growing - growing as a business owner and growing as a human.

 

IN TODAY’S EPISODE I TAKE YOU BEHIND THE SCENE OF RUNNING OUR FIRST VIRTUAL RETREAT  

I share the mindset shifts that happened for me during the retreat 

What it was like to run virtual events - highs and lows 

Why grounding yourself after a win in your business is important 

What I would do differently next time 

My lessons and learnings so you can take them into your business

Ever think that one person can’t make a difference? Well, I hate to say it but you are wrong. It only takes the power of one changemaker with the force of nature to see something wrong and make changes - globally!

 

My guest on The Sustainable Shift Podcast is Sheila Morovati who has founded not one but 2 highly successful Non-Profits Habits of Waste and Crayon Collection. 

 

Habits of Waste focuses on finding solutions to shift habitual behaviors that contribute to pollution and waste. HoW is most known for the #CutOutCutlery campaign, which convinced UberEats, Postmates, Grubhub, and most recently Veggie Grill to globally change the default setting in their applications so that no one receives plastic cutlery unless requested – which is now going into legislation! DoorDash and Chipotle are the next targets.

 

Once Sheila realized that she could shift mindsets with minimal societal efforts, she started to think bigger. The latest campaign #8Meals is a newly launched app that challenges individuals to decrease their animal protein intake by 40% by swapping out 8 meals a weekfor plant-based foods.

This small commitment could lead to lifelong habits, eliminating waste from farming + improving our health. I mean, did you see Seaspiracy on Netflix?! 

 

 

IN TODAY’S EPISODE WE CHAT ABOUT 

Why Sheila focuses on finding a solution to shift habits of waste among mass society 

How she managed to single-handedly spearhead the ban of plastic straws and cutlery in the city of Malibu 

Why she stuck to her mission and went straight to the big corporations 

Why swapping 8 meals to plant-based can literally change the world 

 

If you want to be inspired and see how you don’t need to be a BIG corporation to make a difference, you need to get this podcast in your ears.  This episode is not to be missed!

Is recycling an outdated solution? Some might say it is, this is where the Circular Economy steps in.  What we need is to go beyond recycling and build the framework for a truly circular economy, and we need businesses of all sizes and shapes to step up and take this challenge head-on.

 

Where did it all go wrong? 

In 1684 Thomas Savery invented the steam engine and it changed everything. This invention kick-started the industrial revolution, which transformed our ability to make things. Raw materials and energy were seemingly infinite, and labor was readily available. For the first time in history, goods were mass-produced.

The linear economy has to change, we must disrupt the system. We must transform all the elements of the take-make-waste system: how we manage resources, how we make and use products, and what we do with the materials afterward. The longer materials and resources are in use, the more value is extracted from them. Extending the life of products and materials prevents the over-generation of waste and recovers the full value of products.  

By changing our supply chains, our communities, and the environment, can be on the right path to a healthier, more sustainable economic recovery. Only then can we create a thriving economy that can benefit everyone within the limits of our planet.

Our Guest today on the Podcast is Connor Hill.  Connor is the founder of Connor Hill Co. | Circular Solutions, a consultancy helping brands build industry-leading circular strategies.   

In partnership with enterprise, Connor Hill Co. creates new, consumer-focused circular products and services, and inspires change. Connor’s mission is to create a generation of circular changemakers and ensure that all waste is reborn. 

 

Prior to founding the business, Connor spent more than 10 years leading sustainability and circular economy programs in-house at Adidas, John Lewis, and Marks & Spencer. His pioneering projects include FUTURECRAFT.LOOP, the world’s first fully circular trainer, and John Lewis BuyBack inspiring 20,000 customers to help combat clothing waste.

 

IN TODAY’S EPISODE WE CHAT ABOUT 

Connor's journey inspiring changemakers and brands to make the impact they were born to make!

How as a service based business you can give back in a way that is more impactful than just the ‘usual’ donations

His goal is to ensure all waste is reborn - including a personal recent story about a vacuum cleaner which I’m sure we can all relate to

If you want to dive deeply into understanding Circular Economy and how it needs to play a part in your business, you need to get this podcast in your ears.  This episode is not to be missed!

Imagine if there was a system that explains how you were built, and how to best respond to the world? Well there is, and it’s called Human Design 

 

In short, a former advertising executive and magazine publisher had an eight-day visitation in the ’80s with a “Voice,” who dictated a mechanical system that’s literally a four-hundred-page textbook for how we all work, as defined by our time and place of birth. While it sounds nuts, when you actually generate your chart, you may be surprised by how much it sounds like you. 

 

Human Design is a user manual for your soul - who you came here to be, how you best exchange energy with the world around you, how you're here to impact and influence, and what innate gifts you have to bring those to fruition.

 

In this workshop, we will explore the five energy types and how you can uncover how to best use your energetic strategy to run your business and ultimately jump into the slipstream of your magnificence - rather than swim upstream in someone else's

 

Kirsten Morrison is an Empowerment Coach guiding women to break up with their inherited self and claim their authentic, inherent self. She is the host of the Expressed Podcast an NLP Practitioner, Breathwork facilitator and alchemizes it all through the lens of Human Design. 

 

It’s her mission to support women to remember their magnificence. 

 

She stands for radical self-belief, self-trust, authenticity, and amplifying your gifts to create the impact your soul came here to create. 

 

By using the incredible foundation of human design, she supports you to do it the way that is energetically aligned for YOUR unique blueprint and no one else’s. Because your way is the only way - you ARE the exception to the rule, because you’re exceptional. 

 

 

IN TODAY’S EPISODE WE CHAT ABOUT 

What exactly Human Design and how it’s a user manual for you soul

How it plays a HUGE part of business and why you need to be using your energetic strategy to run your business 

How to jump into the slipstream of your magnificence - rather than swim up stream in someone elses

If you want to dive deeply into Human Design, and how it plays a huge part if your business, you need to get this podcast in your ears.  This episode is not to be missed!

You’ve probably most likely heard some buzz on the street about the new Social Media Platform called Clubhouse. So what exactly is Clubhouse?

[Season 2] Episode 41- 6 Ecopreneurs Changing the World this Earth Day 

 

Each year a billion people across the world celebrate Earth Day but what does Earth Day mean to you? Have you ever just stopped and really thought about it?

 

Earth Day is a day for us all to remember the environment in our busy lives, a day that reminds us to continue to do the little things that help our planet and different ways we can protect it.

 

But where did it all begin?

Earth Day was established and first celebrated in the United States in 1970 following an oil spill in Santa Barbara, California. A staggering 20 million people held rallies across the US after the catastrophic event. Today, it is widely credited as being one of the sparks of the modern environmental movement because it led to the creation of the environment Protection agency.

What I love about Earth Day is that everyone can participate, we can collectively gather and move together toward rethinking what life and our business could and should look like.

 

Earth Day is a time to come together  to join hands in festivals, environment cleanups, tree planting, recycling programs, and community activities 

 

But Earth Day is so much more than an event or a day on the calendar.  It marks our commitment to protecting our environment for generations to come.

 

So I ask you again, what does Earth Day mean to you? How are you going to celebrate it?

If you want to dive deeply into understanding Earth Day and hear from 6 Ecopreneurs who are using their business as a force for good, you need to get this podcast in your ears.  This episode is not to be missed!

I’m so excited to share the latest podcast episode where I interview an amazing fellow Eco-warrior Andrea Fox.

 

Andrea Fox is a broadcaster, presenter and voiceover artist based in the UK. With her background in audio, and her growing eco anxiety she decided to set up the Age of Plastic Podcast as a way to help herself and others like her to learn about what we can do to help stop climate change. Having lived on the coast of Brighton for years and enjoyed swimming in the sea, she had noticed the effects of plastic on the beach. 

 

Fast forward to living in London and the throw away culture made her uneasy. Using the gateway topic of single-use plastic, and her own experience as a secret hippy with single-use guilt, the Age of Plastic Podcast looks at climate issues and sustainable practices as well options instead of single-use plastic, and interviews guests on topics from climate justice to ethical haircuts, with eco-life hacks every episode.  

 

IN TODAY’S EPISODE WE CHAT ABOUT 

What led her down the path of Podcasting not just one Podcast, but two! 

 

What inspired Andrea to create a podcast that focused on some really big, ethical issues such as climate change and battling single use plastic

 

Her Top Tips with our listeners if they are thinking about starting their own Podcast

 

Where she sees her Podcast going in the future?

 

Andreas most inspiring change maker on her Podcast and why?

A 2 Day Virtual Event for Ecopreneurs who are ready to make a bigger impact on our planet #ecopreneurs4earthday

Have I ever told you about how I finally worked out what the magic was to have a successful and sustainable business? Once I realised it, I knew that I had spent my first 2 years in my old ecommerce business doing it all wrong! 

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

It was doing the Mindset work - this was the number #1 thing that I needed to work on if I really wanted to stand out online.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Once I understood this insight it quite literally changed the way that I do business and cemented in how I run my business today.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

​​Which is why when we run Virtual Retreats and we work with women just like you, we know you don't just need a few marketing strategies that 'promise' you to make sales. The thing you need most to feel comfortable standing out online, is the Mindset work.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Because truthfully, Mindset work can sometimes be a little scary. Growth IS scary!  Quite often we say we want to grow, and yet our actions tell us a whole different story.  Usually this is the result of a subconscious belief that is holding us back.⠀⠀⠀

Our Podcast Guest today the Podcast specialises in working with women and their mindset  (and is also a speaker at Ecopreneurs for Earth Virtual Retreat) is the beautiful Christine Corcoran.

She is a Master NLP & Mbit Coach, host of Love What you Do Collective monthly events and the Next Level Life Podcast and helps her clients on a soul level to overcome any limiting beliefs, self sabotage or energetic energy that is holding them back.⠀⠀⠀⠀

Can you save the world one straw at a time? Just in the US alone they use 182,5 BILLION straws a year, which if you do the maths you’ll arrive at about 73,000 metrics tons of plastic straws a year.  Crazy facts, hey!

 

Well in this episode, we explore why it’s important  to pull up our socks, just because you can’t see the problem necessarily at your doorstep, doesn’t mean straws aren’t a problem! And leading the crusade against single use plastic is Emma Rose Cohen.

 

My guest is Emma, is  the CEO and founder of Final, creators of FinalStraw—the world’s first reusable, collapsible straw that raised nearly $2 million on Kickstarter. Since 2018, Emma has grown Final from a one product company to a company with an entire line of convenient, sustainable alternatives. In 2020, Final launched BiggieStraw, FinalSpork, and FinalFork.

 

IN TODAY’S EPISODE WE CHAT ABOUT 

 

How with dedication anyone can run a successful Kickstarter campaign  

What it’s like to do not 1 but 2 TedX talks on a global platform 

Which charities and causes are held close to her heart 

Why recycling is the not solution 

ABOUT FINAL.CO

Final is a brand whose mission is to reduce the need for single-use plastics and empower you to change your buying habits by creating reusable Foreverables™. They are such a unique gift + cool gadget for those on-the-go!
