In this episode, we speak with the incredible Dr. Julie Pullen about the importance of building community around climate solutions. Dr. Julie Pullen is a climate scientist using advanced computing technology and open-source software to quantify climate risk in the financial sector and beyond. With a background in earth system prediction and complex systems, Dr Julie brings a unique perspective as an oceanographer and former engineering professor, holding leadership roles in academia, non-profit, government, private sector, and scientific societies. Her work catalyzes sustainable investing in climate solutions and women-led ventures, and our conversation with Julie is nothing short of empowering.


In this episode:

  • The importance of slowing down
  • Embracing observation + learning to support a fair climate transition
  • What will happen to stranded assets as we make necessary changes towards a climate positive future?
  • Things we can do to mitigate climate change today
  • What part does money play in climate action?
  • Re-envisioning greener cities
  • The power of imagination

We also talk about her work with Women Power Our Planet, an organization she co-founded that channels the financial power of women as an impactful climate solution. You’ll hear Dr. Julie talk about three things we can do to mitigate climate change today, as well as her praise for the book All We Can Save by Dr. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson and Dr. Katharine K. Wilkinson. We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did. We know you, too, will feel optimistic and empowered!

When did we start having such a strained relationship with stuff? And can you actually have stuff without breaking the planet? That is exactly what we'll get into in this episode with circular economy entrepreneur and author Sandra Goldmark.


Thing's we'll ponder together:

  • When and why did we lose touch with the value of things?
  • How can we care for things and fix them when they're broken?
  • How should we think about stuff to make sure they only fill a functional, balanced, and nurturing part of our lives?
  • What is circular economy and how can we achieve it?

We'll also start the episode with what I call "Maddie Chats" where Madeleine is coming back to the show to give you quick "need-to-know" about microplastics, a teaser of an upcoming episode when we'll dive a lot deeper into that world...


About Sandra:

Sandra is a circular economy entrepreneur and author whose work focuses on solutions to overconsumption and climate change. In her recent book Fixation: How to Have Stuff Without Breaking the Planet, she takes readers on a quest to radically reimagine what a healthy relationship with our stuff might look like.

Did you know that we have merely 60 years left of growable soil? That is if we continue doing farming the way we do today, with destructive practices like tilling, mono-cropping, and fertilizer use. The good thing is that soil has an incredible ability to regenerate itself and that it's hungry for carbon. And if it's something we have way too much of in our atmosphere today, it's just that. So by changing our agricultural practices and build for healthy soils, we can create a machine that will not only grow more nutrient dense foods, but also help sequester all the CO2 currently stored in our air.


In other words - no only do we have the ability to save the soil, but if we do, the soil might very well save us.


This is live Q&A with Rob Herring, the director of the incredible film The Need To Grow. If you haven't seen the film already I highly recommend you watch it - head over to www.theneedtogrow.com and start getting excited about soil!

“A lot of times I can see clearly what the potential of this person is. I can see what their life path is. I can even see the steps of how they can meet this potential. But a lot of people are die-hard fixed to their current identity and they may not know why. Most people don’t know how much they’re holding themselves back.”

Today's chat with intuitive coach Megan Markey is about finding your purpose and a life where you get to thrive, and about listening to your voices inside and learning how to turn your dreams into action. This episode is 100% about how to empower yourself and make reality of your own dream journey, but at the same time, it’s also 100% about changing the world. I have said this before and I cannot say it enough, so I’ll say it again - your activism fuels off your own spiritual, mental, and physical well-being! In other words - heal yourself to help heal the world.

This first one will be for FREE so make sure you don't miss out. In the class, you’ll get all the tools for creating a mindful, empowered, and balanced life as an activist.
