    Breaking Moulds and Braving The Dark - Michael Bones on The Long Road to Individual, Collective & Planetary Health

    Hello out there, this is the Finding Nature podcast and my name is Nathan Robertson-Ball. I started this show with the intent of creating the types of conversations that I knew I needed but also thought people that work in the broad tent of sustainability wanted to hear too - combining discussions on the issues and problems our civilisation and planet face with the optimism of what has and could be done but also getting into the mindsets and philosophies of the people who have been on the fro...

    New Ways of Deciding - Victoria Whitaker Knows That How We Choose Matters

    I’m very pleased to bringing you a chat with Victoria Whitaker. I was really excited to chat with Vic - she’s another of the originals of the Sydney and Australian sustainability crew like Lee Stewart and Nicolette Boele I’ve had the chance to chat with on this show. I did some work with Vic the best part of a decade ago when she was at The Ethics Centre, and it was immediately evident how thoughtful, well regarded and insightful she was. Vic has held a number of different roles in various or...

    Kaylene Langford Wants You To Start Now - The Power of Creation and Owning Your Freedom

    Today’s guest is someone I’ve wanted to bring on the show for a little while - Kaylene Langford. The reason why I wanted to have Kaylene on is because her job is all about helping people take their hare brained schemes or half concocted ideas and turn them into businesses. This matters to me - both because I’ve done it and experienced a remarkable transformation in how I understand and can exercise my agency in attempting to make a difference, but because I know just about everybody listening...
