10/11/20 • 32 min

Live Wide Awake - Sustainability & Conscious Leadership

Why are the glaciers considered the third poles? Why are they so important to our planet’s ecosystem? We designed the problem of climate change, can we design ourselves out of it? Or are we next on the extinction list?

Big questions that we are deep diving into today with Craig Leeson, director and producer of the award-winning documentary A Plastic Ocean, which woke the world to just how far plastic has infiltrated into our lives. And soon to be released documentary The Last Glaciers

In this podcast episode, Craig Leeson sheds light our plastic oceans, code-red wake-up calls, stories of working with Sir David Attenborough, and more.

It’s time to live wide awake.

Live Wide Awake Sneak Peak

Hey, its Steph L Dickson and welcome to the live wide awake podcast. For a large portion of my life, I felt like I was walking around half asleep. Following the status quo, chasing what I thought was my dream career. Until I had an awakening and realised that I was living my life on autopilot and wasn’t seeing what was right in front of me. Since then I have been on a deep, twisted, insightful, and sometimes painful journey of self-and life discovery to raise my consciousness and live awake.

This podcast is part of that journey, but now I get to do it with you. We will be talking about climate change and consciousness, sustainability and spirituality - with some of the more intriguing and remarkable minds that I have the pleasure of crossing paths with. Its time to escape up from the matrix, and live wide awake.

2. Daniel Flynn: on eradicating poverty, why purpose is the fuel & Thankyou

We live in a world of two extremes - extreme poverty on one end, and extreme overconsumption on the other. Imagine if business could truly eradicate some of the world’s most pressing issues... Imagine if we could balance the scales - could we save humanity and the planet in the process?

Big questions that we are deep diving into today with Daniel Flynn, co-founder of Thankyou - who produced personal care products for the sole purpose of funding life-changing projects. And who just launched a global campaign asking Unilever and Procter and Gamble if they want to join for the ride.

In this podcast episode, Daniel Flynn shares the secret weapon that keeps Thankyou thriving after 12 years, why purpose is the fuel, going deep on the soft stuff so you can handle the hard stuff, the antidote to uncertainty and so much more.

It’s time to live wide awake.
