    Pick Your Own - with Sonya of Adore Your Outdoors

    What struck ewe most from this episode - and why? This week our theme is 100% outdoors.  And if we'd been geographically closer we absolutely would have recorded it outdoors too! Our guest in this episode is Sonya Dibbin, who calls herself The Nature Lady on LinkedIn and Nature Nerd in other areas :-) Like Raising the Baa, Sonya is passionate about bringing people into nature, hence her beautifully named business Adore Your Outdoors. From an extensive career in IT, you will hear how and why Sonya developed into a trainer of forest bathing, ecoNIDRA (yoga fans will get this immediately), workplace resilience and wellbeing. With her growing tribe of certified forest bathing guides across the country, we are really excited to have Adore Your Outdoors as one of our Pick Your Own partners. ---------------------------------- Whilst hundreds of companies have brought their teams to a farm to herd sheep with us at Raising the Baa, we know that the field-based exercises are not for everyone. So we've raised our own 'baa' and created Pick Your Own. A bespoke collection of sustainable and meaningful activities to bring teams together in the countryside - just perfect for everyone's wellbeing.

    Pick Your Own - with Kavitha of Isifiso

    What struck ewe most from this episode - and why? "Sewing Bee for companies. I help your teams break out of their shell and form threads of connection through our sewing & mending workshops". Why re-word something that is already so baa-rilliantly and succinctly put in the LinkedIn headline of today's guest Kavitha Soundararajan? A corporate IT background might not be the most obvious pathway to her creative business but our conversation reveals exactly why Kavitha is in the right place, right now. And how a spot of mindful sewing could be just the tonic for teams, helping people to bond, really learn about each other in a non-confrontational way. All whilst doing something practical and sustainable.
