    Creating the conditions for well-being in climate work with Jeanette Bronée

    SUMMARY
    Jeanette Bronée is a Carbon Almanac Network member and helped facilitate partnerships. In this episode, she offers insight into team building and how to create the conditions that sustain corporate teams in their climate work. Community-based organizations can also apply Jeanette's principles.
    Jeanette Bronée is a global keynote and two-time TEDx Speaker, culture strategist, and author of The Self-Care Mindset.
    Jeanette is rethinking self-care in the workplace as the foundation for peak performance, engagement, and a culture where people belong and work better together.
    As an internationally recognized self-care mindset expert, she has spoken at the United Nations, given keynotes across the US, and spoken to audiences on five continents. She shares the tools to reclaim agency and cultivate the human connection that helps us communicate and collaborate with curiosity and care to navigate challenges, innovate, and grow stronger together in our constantly changing reality. 
    She gives us the C.A.R.E.-driven framework so we can change our relationship with self-care at work in order to be busy and healthy at the same time, cultivating a culture where people create impact and sustainable success together. Her clients include IBM, BlackRock, Lockheed Martin, Kaiser Permanente, Genentech, Microsoft, Facebook, ebay, Siemens, and more. 
    Her new book, "The Self-Care Mindset, Rethinking How We Change and Grow, Harness Well-Being and Reclaim Work-Life Quality," is a book of tools to harness our human advantage to grow through adversity.

    Sustainability in Dentistry with Dr. Rob Slater

    Sustainability in Dentistry with Dr. Rob Slater

    SUMMARY
    Today we're trying a new format for this podcast.
    When The Carbon Connection launched one year ago, the objective was to highlight climate conversations happening around the world. The plan was to collaborate with hosts and producers of other podcasts and highlight their conversations with guests. Click on the link in the show notes to see the conversations we've been able to share, thanks to the independent podcasters and teams with which we've had the opportunity to collaborate.
    Moving forward, we will continue to highlight climate conversations. This time we're sitting down with partners of The Carbon Almanac Network.
    In the podcast's new format, we'll speak with partners to learn more about their community engagement efforts, what has worked for them, what hasn't, and what they've learned.
    We begin this new journey by speaking with Dr. Rob Slater, founder of One Devonshire Place, a specialty orthodontics practice in England.
    Rob is also a podcast producer and contributor to The Carbon Almanac Podcast Network.
    In today's episode, Rob and I discuss sustainability in dentistry. We discuss how Rob started his practice and what he has learned about making his practice more sustainable. Rob shares his successes and challenges and offers insight into how patients can enter conversations about sustainability with their family dentist.
