Dive into the fascinating world of storytelling with Dr Simon Raybould, as he unravels the power behind the stories we tell. Simon challenges the traditional approach of parroted tales and introduces a more forensic use of stories to inspire true change. From prioritising factual storytelling over fictional narratives to emphasising truth and rigour in your information consumption, Simon's insights will reshape how you perceive stories, transforming them into powerful tools for real change. If you want to make a difference, embrace storytelling with substance. KEY TAKEAWAY ‘If it inspires you at all, that inspiration lasts no more than a few minutes biochemically and a few hours psychologically and maybe at best, a few days behaviourally.'   BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS* Factfulness by Hans Rosling, Ola Rosling, Anna Rosling Rönnlund - https://amzn.eu/d/0uADPtO StoryMaking by Dr Simon Raybould - https://amzn.eu/d/1i7yrJK   ABOUT SIMON Simon Raybould began his career as a university researcher, with his PhD focusing on environmental factors that may contribute to childhood leukaemia. His work was primarily rooted in complex statistical analysis rather than medicine and he and his colleagues made significant progress in understanding how to prevent the disease. He went on to spend over 24 years as a professional researcher in academia. Beyond research, Simon has worked as an actor, lighting designer and even a fire-eater. His diverse experiences led to a keen interest in communication particularly in conveying complex research findings to politicians and policymakers in a clear, accessible and unambiguous manner, often in high-pressure situations. This meticulous attention to precision and clarity now underpins his work as a trainer, speaker and author, ensuring that his insights are both rigorous and easily understood.

Chapter 1 What's FactfulnessFactfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World – and Why Things Are Better Than You Think is a book written by Swedish statistician Hans Rosling, along with his son Ola Rosling and daughter-in-law Anna Rosling Rönnlund. The book explores common misconceptions people have about the world and provides a fact-based perspective on various global issues. It seeks to challenge pessimistic views and highlight positive progress by presenting reliable data and statistics. Factfulness offers readers a more accurate and realistic understanding of the world we live in.Chapter 2 Why is Factfulness Worth ReadFactfulness by Hans Rosling is worth reading because it offers a refreshing perspective on the state of the world and helps readers develop a more accurate understanding of global trends and challenges. Here are some key reasons why the book is worth reading:1. Data-driven insights: Rosling, a renowned statistician and public health expert, presents an abundance of data and evidence to debunk common misconceptions surrounding global issues. He uses clear and accessible graphs, charts, and visual aids to convey complex information effectively.2. Challenging biases: The book prompts readers to question their preconceived notions and biases about the world. Rosling argues that many people have a pessimistic view of global progress, often due to outdated information or media coverage that focuses on negative events. Factfulness challenges these biases and highlights the significant improvements happening globally.3. Optimistic outlook: Rosling emphasizes the progress humanity has made across various sectors, such as health, education, and living standards, and provides a more optimistic outlook on the future. This perspective can help counterbalance the prevailing negativity and doom-and-gloom narratives that often dominate public discourse.4. Understanding complexity: Rosling encourages readers to think critically and consider the complexity of global issues. He explains the importance of avoiding generalizations, recognizing the diversity within countries, and understanding that progress is not linear. This nuanced approach helps readers develop a more accurate understanding of the world's complexities.5. Practical advice: The book provides practical advice on how to evaluate information, validate sources, and navigate the deluge of data and news in the modern world. Rosling's toolkit for critical thinking equips readers with skills to become more factful, helping them make better-informed decisions and participate more effectively in public debates.Overall, Factfulness is worth reading because it challenges misconceptions, offers data-driven insights, promotes critical thinking, and presents a more optimistic and nuanced view of the world. It is a valuable resource for anyone seeking a more accurate understanding of global trends and a useful guide for navigating the flood of information in the digital age.Chapter 3 Factfulness SummaryFactfulness by Hans Rosling is a book that presents a new and refreshing perspective on global development and challenges commonly held beliefs about the state of the world. Rosling, a renowned Swedish statistician and public health expert, aims to dispel misconceptions and highlight the progress and possibilities that exist in today's world.The book begins by examining the pervasive negativity bias that is present in our society, which leads us to believe that things are worse than they actually are. Rosling reveals that people tend to hold outdated and exaggerated ideas about global issues such as poverty, population growth, and education. He argues that these misconceptions hinder our ability to accurately assess the world...

BIO: Guillermo Cornejo is the CEO of Riders Share, the Airbnb of motorcycles he started while attending grad school at UCLA.STORY: Guillermo had an insurance company handling claims for his customers. When he realized the insurance company had a 50% profit margin, he decided to start his own insurance business. This became a costly and challenging venture because he had no experience handling claims.LEARNING: Don't underestimate the value of experience. “Whenever somebody is talking to me about any industry, I'm all ears. I know I know nothing.”Guillermo Cornejo Guest profileGuillermo Cornejo is the CEO of Riders Share, the Airbnb of motorcycles he started while attending grad school at UCLA. Before that, he worked in analytics roles for GM, Nissan, and Hyundai. He grew up in Peru and enjoys anything that makes your heart race.Worst investment everGuillermo launched his company in 2018, and it grew immensely. The company booked over a million dollars in rentals within the first year. Guillermo was on top of the world.The company was working with an insurance partner with pretty good rates but was providing terrible service to Guillermo's customers. It took many months to handle the claims. When Guillermo looked at his company's history of accidents and measured the cost of paid-out claims and how much he had paid the insurance company in premiums. He found the insurance company was making a 50% margin in profits. This got Guillermo thinking he should do it himself.Guillermo raised some capital and used most of it to set up an insurance company. This was an expensive venture (millions of dollars). The more the company grew, the more bad customers it attracted—from risk-takers to fraudsters trying to steal his motorcycles. On top of that, he realized how difficult it was to handle claims, and just like the insurance partner, it took him months to pay out claims.Lessons learnedDon't underestimate the value of experience.Andrew's takeawaysDon't let overestimation bias mislead you into thinking you can do more than you're capable of.Try to shift your mind from I think I know something to I know I know nothing.Actionable adviceDon't overestimate your skills, abilities, and knowledge. Work with advisors and connect with more experienced people who have done it before. They will help you understand how much you don't know and then try to fill that gap.Guillermo's recommendationsGuillermo recommends reading Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World--and Why Things Are Better Than You Think, co-authored by a previous guest on our podcast, Anna Rosling Rönnlund.No.1 goal for the next 12 monthsGuillermo's number one goal for the next 12 months is to double his company revenues while remaining profitable.

The Brainy Business | Understanding the Psychology of Why People Buy | Behavioral Economics

In today's conversation, I am joined by John Sills. John is Managing Partner at the customer-led growth company, The Foundation. He's been in front-line teams delivering the experience, innovation teams designing the propositions, and global HQ teams creating the strategy. He's been a bank manager during the financial crisis (which he says was not fun), launched a mobile app to millions of people (very fun), and regularly visits strangers' houses to ask very personal questions (incredible fun). He now works with companies across industries and around the world, and before joining The Foundation spent twelve years at HSBC, latterly as Head of Customer Innovation. He regularly writes on Customer Experience and Innovation, and his first book, The Human Experience, just came out and is what we are discussing today. This was a really fun book, and it is chock-full of real life experiences from businesses (both good and bad) that you can learn from. John keeps it light, even when teaching some really important stuff, and helps us to see how we can all benefit from remembering that we are, at the end of the day, humans (and so are our employees and customers). So let's just bring a bit more human-ness back into our companies! Show Notes: [00:43] In today's conversation, I am joined by John Sills. John is the managing partner at the customer lead growth company, The Foundation.  [03:24] John shares himself and his background. [05:56] You really need to want to make things better for customers.  [08:41] You are closer to your colleagues, business, products, and services, but your customers are really important. We often write things that make sense to us but not to our customers.  [11:22] Factfulness is all about helping us challenge our perspectives of the world. It is easy for us to think we are the center of the world.  [14:01] Nearly all of the research we have is very inside out. It is all about the company and almost none of it is about the customer and how we can be useful to them.  [16:10] Companies should stay close to what matters most to their customers and their lives and then work out how to be useful to them.  [19:42] As a CEO if you don't go and experience the other jobs in your company yourself then you never get the visceral connection to what is really mattering for your customers.  [23:07] A real sense of responsibility and ownership for the customer is missing in many organizations.  [24:09] John shares a wonderful customer experience he had with Swiss Rails.  [27:27] Bad customer experiences are really expensive to provide.  [29:35] If you give a good experience in the first place your customers will contact you less and everything will be more efficient.  [30:23] Failure demand is the demand that is put on your service or organization as a result of failures you made elsewhere in your customer experience or service.  [32:50] As humans we are truly loyal to very few things. Very rarely are we truly loyal to companies.  [34:02] If you as an organization stay more useful than your competitors then people will stay with you.  [35:09] Organizations spend very little time keeping the experience great and essentially ignore endings or make it difficult for customers to leave.  [37:35] If as the leaders in an organization, you really understand what matters to people in their lives then your singular job is to understand how you can be most useful to them in their life.  [38:30] What is at the heart of great organizations is really understanding their customers and really staying useful to them.  [39:55] If you can retain that humanness in your organization and let your people be human then they will understand customers and create things that are useful.  [41:43] No one has time to stop and think and it is really dangerous. It feels like it is really important to check things off a to-do list instead of really getting things done well.   [43:18] When you don't have the time to step back, bad customer experience abounds.  [44:05] When you try to make it look like you know the person you are talking to and then you miss it feels a lot more painful and annoying than if you didn't ask enough. [46:43] Over the last 20 years organizations have done a great job at trying to perfect the functional customer experience, but they have done that at the expense of the emotional and human experience. [48:27] Just be the human you have spent all your life training to be. Speak in a human way, think about what it is like to be on the other end, and take time to understand other people.  [50:00] Treat people the way you want your gran to be treated and make your mum proud of the decisions you make.  [51:30] Melina's closing thoughts [52:28] If you consider the extreme costs when you have to fix things it is often more cost effective to do it right and more human the first time.  Thanks for listening.

BIO: Anna Rosling Rönnlund is a Swedish designer who, with her husband Ola Rosling, developed Trendalyzer, interactive software for visualizing statistical information.STORY: Anna and her husband bought a home after moving to the US. A while later, they had to move back to Sweden, so they decided to sell the house. This was during the financial crisis that hit the real estate market badly. So the couple lost a lot of money after the sale.LEARNING: Keep your costs low. You don't always have to buy a home. “Spending time doing things you love is the best investment ever.”Anna Rosling Rönnlund Guest profileAnna Rosling Rönnlund is a Swedish designer who, with her husband Ola Rosling, developed Trendalyzer, interactive software for visualizing statistical information. In 2005, with statistician and father-in-law Hans Rosling, she co-founded the Gapminder Foundation, where she serves as vice president for design and usability. In 2016, she announced Dollar Street, a website that imagines a street of homes to help visualize how people of varying cultures and incomes live around the world. In 2017, she collaborated with Hans Rosling on his book, Factfulness.Worst investment everAnna and her husband moved to the US, where they were both working at Google. They decided to look for a place to stay close to the office. The couple had sold their apartment in Sweden, so they had some cash to purchase a house. They bought their home just before the real estate market crashed and then moved back to Sweden after it crashed. They decided to sell the house and lost quite a lot of money.The home was just a few miles from where Facebook was building its new headquarters. Had the couple held onto the house for just a year or two after moving back to Sweden, they'd have gained quite a lot of money.Lessons learnedWhen investing, start from your dream or passion and then gradually diversify to other things.Keep your costs low, but still enjoy life, and make sure you do things you like—it doesn't have to cost a lot.Andrew's takeawaysOne way to protect yourself is to keep your costs really low.You don't have to buy a house, especially when you're moving to a new city.Property can fall, and you lose for a while, but in the long run, it eventually comes back.Actionable adviceIf you're not going to stay in a home for a very long time, don't buy it—rent instead.Anna's recommended resourceAnna recommends reading Factfulness because it's all about how to make sense of the world. It gives you a general overview of the biggest trends and proportions to make better decisions in life and work.No.1 goal for the next 12 monthsAnna's number one goal for the next 12 months is to add the questions received from the general public and interactive video-led courses, the Worldview Upgrader.

Good morning Motivated Ninjas! Thank you for tuning in to the Motivated Entrepreneurs podcast.  Today we have a book review and it's called "Factfulness" by Hans Rosling, Anna Rosling Rönnlund, Ola Rosling. In Factfulness, Professor of International Health and global TED phenomenon Hans Rosling, together with his two long-time collaborators, Anna and Ola, offers a radical new explanation of why this happens. They reveal the ten instincts that distort our perspective―from our tendency to divide the world into two camps (usually some version of us and them) to the way we consume media (where fear rules) to how we perceive progress (believing that most things are getting worse).

Interview with Magnus Moglia, associate professor at Swinburne University of Technology. We will talk about his vision for the future of cities, urban complexity, sustainability, urban resilience, and many more. Magnus Moglia loves data and numbers, so it was not strange that he was drawn to the sciences. In his native Sweden, he studied Physics and Mathematics, graduating from the Royal Institute of Technology of Stockholm in 2000. After a year travelling Asia and Africa, he became passionate about cities and water management. He arrived in Australia in 2001, and then spent nearly 20 years studying urban sustainability at the CSIRO. There, he discovered and embraced the science of complex systems, leading him to complete a PhD on the topic at the ANU's Crawford School for Public Policy. Now Magnus is an Associate Professor at Swinburne University's Centre for Urban Transitions and a theme leader for Urban Regeneration research. In the last few years, he has been leading and undertaking transdisciplinary research on a range of potential sustainability solutions, including residential solar panels, rainwater harvesting, telework, future city imaginaries, climate adaptation in Kiribati and Vietnam, rice farming technologies in Laos, and just workforce transitions in Queensland. Magnus argues that to overcome the critical challenges of the 21st century, technology is both necessary and risky, but more important will be our capacity to work together towards shared visions.

Rosling realmente nos provoca a mudar a lente que usamos para enxergar o mundo. Mudar da visão dramática para uma visão baseada em dados.

Vor einigen Wochen las ich eine Meldung, dass Bill Gates, seines Zeichens einer der reichsten Männer der Welt, der zusammen mit seiner Frau Melinda Gates Malaria und Kinderlähmung abschaffen möchte, im nächsten Jahr allen College-Absolventen in den USA ein Buch schenken wird, dass den Titel “Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World And Why Things are better than you think” trägt. Hierzulande, wo Optimismus oft als die Abwesenheit von relevantem Wissen angesehen wird, trägt es den der Gesellschaft angepassten Titel “Factfulness: Wie wir lernen, die Welt so zu sehen, wie sie wirklich ist”. Ganz so, als ob die deutschen Verleger gefürchtet hätten, dass ein Buchtitel trotz seines Welterfolgs unter den miesepetrigen und besorgten Bürgern keine Chance hätte, wenn er gleich auf dem Cover mit der Botschaft “Die Welt ist besser als du denkst” aufwarten würde.Hans Rosling, der 1948 in Schweden geboren wurde und 2017 verstarb, war ein Mediziner, der auch Statistik studiert hatte und gemeinsam mit seinem Sohn Ola Rosling und dessen Frau Anna Rosling Rönnlund die Stiftung gapminder gründete und leitete, deren Ziel es war und ist, eine auf Fakten beruhende Sicht auf die Welt zu fördern und dabei ausschließlich frei zugängliche öffentliche Statistiken zu verwenden.Große Berühmtheit erlangte er durch seine Auftritte bei den TED Talks, in denen er in schlecht geschnittenen Jackets mit einem überlangen Zeigestab Lacher erzielte und seine Zuhörer schockierte, indem er Multiple Choice Fragen stellte, die auf ein allgemeines Verständnis der Verfasstheit der Welt zielen und in absurder Höhe falsch beantwortet werden; unabhängig davon, ob er vor Studenten sprach oder vor den sogenannten World Leadern in Davos. Letztere müssten es eigentlich wissen und schneiden auch etwas besser ab. Trost spendete Hans Rosling mit der überraschend gut, weil die Unwissenden zum Lachen bringenden gewählten statistischen Vergleichsgruppe, den Schimpansen. Da sie die Fragen eher wenig verstehen, gelingt ihnen bei jeweils 3 Antwortmöglichkeiten die Auswahl der richtigen Antwort zu immerhin 33%. Damit schneiden sie jedes Mal besser als die befragten Menschen ab.Hans Rosling spricht - zu Recht - von einer verheerenden Ignoranz seiner Zuhörer gegenüber der eigentlichen Weltlage. In seinem Weltbestseller “Factfulness” zitiert er viele Statistiken, zeigt Entwicklungen und Vorurteile, die sich hierzulande, wie im Rest der sich als “entwickelt” - in Abgrenzung zur sich “als entwickelnd” wahrgenommenen Welt, als äußerst hartnäckig erweisen. Er benennt Ursachen und - dies scheint mir neben seinem aufklärerischen Ansatz die Überzeugungskraft seiner Arbeit auszumachen - erhebt sich dabei nie über die noch nicht Aufgeklärten, schreibt und spricht mit einem zutiefst emphatischen und humanistischen Ansatz, der stets Verständnis für das Einzelschicksal zeigt, dessen Schwere verstörend sein kann, das aber nichts daran ändert, dass die Welt eine bessere ist, als wir im Allgemeinen glauben.Eine augenöffnende Leseerfahrung, die tatsächlich das eigene Bild der Welt korrigiert und in Gesprächen und Streits mit Freunden, Familie, Stammtisch und Kollegen helfen wird. Ein Buch, dessen Empfehlung den Bildungsauftrag unseres kleinen Lokalsenders coloRadio für die ganze Dekade erfüllt: lest “Factfulness”! Obwohl ein Bestseller, ist der Titel der automatischen Rechtschreibkorrektur noch nicht bekannt, die ihn gern in Tactfulness ändern möchte.Es ist ein Verdienst Hans Roslings und seiner Kollaborateure, tatsächlich taktvoll vorzugehen, wenn er nach und nach so ziemlich jede als sicher geglaubte Annahme widerlegt. Wie aber kommt es zur von ihm als “verheerend ignoranten” Weltsicht?Wir wachsen in bestimmten Gegebenheiten auf, die unseren Blick auf die tatsächliche Verfasstheit der Welt mit voreingenommenen Sichtweisen vernebeln. Wir lernen von Lehrern, deren Ansichten sich nicht gemäß den Veränderungen und Umschwüngen anpassen und mit Lehrmaterialien, die aufgrund von fehlenden Praxen und Prioritäten viel zu selten aktualisiert werden. Kurz, wir lernen die Welt kennen, wie sie vor 50 Jahren war, nicht, wie sie tatsächlich ist, und beantworten Fragen wie z. B.: Wie ist das weltweite Einkommen verteilt? Wie schnell und wo wächst die Bevölkerung der Welt? Wie ist die Entwicklung der Kindersterblichkeit? Was sind die häufigsten Todesursachen? Wieviel Prozent der Weltbevölkerung sind geimpft? oder Wieviel Prozent der Mädchen weltweit genießen die gleiche Schulbildung wie Jungen? immer und immer wieder falsch.Eine der bedeutendsten Fehlannahmen ist die Überzeugung, dass die Welt eine duale ist: auf der einen Seite die entwickelte, den wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Fortschritt anführende Welt, wie wir sie in Nordamerika und Europa und einigen weiteren Staaten vermuten, auf der anderen Seite die sich entwickelnde Welt, also den ganzen großen Rest. 1975, also vor mehr als 40 Jahren, war dies tatsächlich noch so. Die Einkommensverteilung zeigte 2 große Buckel: den größeren für den Teil der Weltbevölkerung, die mit weniger als 1 Dollar pro Tag auskommen musste und den weit kleineren Teil, die bis zu 100 Dollar am Tag zur Verfügung hatte. Diese Welt gibt es nicht mehr: Hans Rosling zeigt, dass die Verteilung des Einkommens weltweit längst der Normalverteilung entspricht: nur noch ein geringer Anteil der Weltbevölkerung lebt in absoluter Armut und muss sein Leben dem Überleben widmen, ebenso ist der Anteil der Superreichen - und dies ist ein Fakt, der uns wiederum bekannt ist - sehr gering. Aber der Großteil der Weltbevölkerung gehört inzwischen zur Mittelschicht, die sich dadurch auszeichnet, dass genügend Essen und Elektrizität zur Verfügung stehen, alle Heranwachsenden eine Bildung erhalten, in überwiegender Zahl geimpft und nicht durch Masernepidemien bedroht sind.Dies wird nur zögerlich durch Weltorganisationen adaptiert, auch wenn Hans Rosling einen Großteil seiner Zeit dafür verwandte.Unsere zweigeteilte Weltsicht ignoriert dies, da es auch wesentlich einfacher und evolutionär begünstigt wird, die Welt in 2 Teile, in Arm und Reich, in den Westen und den Rest, in Freund und Feind zu teilen.Die Entwicklung, für die ich hier nur ein Beispiel nennen möchte, ist eine andere: reiche Konsumenten, für deren Einordnung das Kriterium gewählt wird, dass sie sich eine Flugreise für ihre Ferien leisten können, kamen 1975 nur zu 30% außerhalb von Europa und Nordamerika, heute sind es bereits 50%. Legt man Voraussagen des Internationalen Währungsfonds zum Bruttoinlandsprodukt zu Grunde, werden 2035 73% der reichen Konsumenten außerhalb des von uns als der “reichen Welt” empfundenen Länder kommen.Auf die Frage, wie ein Umgang mit diesen Fragen gestaltet werden soll, wird eine einfache Antwort gegeben: Zuerst messen, dann handeln.In “Factfulness” werden die häufigsten Irrglauben benannt und Faustregeln erläutert, wie die Welt heute aussieht und wie man mit seinen Vorurteilen und - fast noch bedeutender - Ängsten, aber auch mit Meldungen umgehen kann:1. Alles wird schlechter ist schlicht falsch, (fast) alles wird besser.2. Die Welt ist in arm und reich geteilt. Falsch: es gibt einen Auswuchs in der Mitte, in dem sich die Einkommen der meisten Menschen befinden.3. Zuerst müssen die Leute sozial “aufsteigen”, damit die größten Herausforderungen wie die Abschaffung der Kindersterblichkeit, Schulbildung, Elektrizität, Impfungen und ähnliches für alle gemeistert werden können. Wieder falsch, das ist schon passiert, denn nur noch ein geringer Teil lebt in der sogenannten absoluten Armut.4. Sachen, die einem persönlich besonders gefährlich erscheinen, wie z. B. Haie, Terrorismus oder die Gefahr von Erkrankungen des eigenen Kindes, wenn man es impfen lässt, spielen in globalen Statistiken eine verschwindend geringe Rolle, auch wenn sie für das Individuum bei ihrem Auftreten gefährlich sein können.Hans Rosling, dem sein Privileg in einem Sozialstaat aufzuwachsen, sehr wohl bewusst war und der während seines Lebens einen großen Aufschwung seines Heimatlandes Schweden erlebte, verteidigt diesen und staatliche Programme zur Bildung und Gesundheitsversorgung als Pfeiler einer Welt, die sich weiter zum Besseren wandeln wird, wenn die zunehmende Individualisierung und große Ignoranz der reichsten Einkommensschicht, die sich ausschließlich in Europa und Nordamerika findet, sich gegenüber den Fakten und den daraus gewonnenen Statistiken nicht verschließt. Es ist eines der Symptome unserer Zeit, dass sich einige wenige Superreiche diesen Aufgaben verschreiben, während die Neoliberalisierung immer noch zunimmt und diese Probleme und Herausforderungen, für die unsere Steuern vorrangig verwendet werden sollten, aus ihren Stiftungsgeldern bezahlt. Und trotzdem: Things are better than we think. This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit lobundverriss.substack.com

Before we begin, let's first consider a key question to understand this book. Do you think the world is going to get better or worse in the future? After years of research, the authors of this book have found that most people believe that our world is heading towards a negative path that will worsen in the upcoming year. If you ask them why such a negative perspective of the future, many will most likely cite the endless negative news about the destructions caused by environmental pollution, violent crimes, plane crashes, road accidents, new diseases as evidence that a darker future is on the way. However, to answer this question from a clear perspective, it is necessary to look at factual data and understand the truth behind it. We will learn how to do it in this book.

Court discusses eco-tourism, photography, conservation and how they benefit each other. He also shares some statistics regarding the economic benefits to a community dedicated to conservation as well as clues us into some easy things that we can do to be better stewards of our earth.   "Something I still say to today is influencing the influencers of our world. I think travelers tend to be a bit more extroverted, a bit more involved, a bit more active, a bit more outspoken, a bit more conscientious, and so if I can turn those people onto conservation via travel, I have this great disproportionate impact on saving the world and stuff." - Court Whelan [17:24]   What You Will Learn: [00:01] Intro [01:42] Trying to see through the crystal ball [02:59] Revisiting photos [05:39] Balancing photography and being presence in the moment [08:30] How his sense of wanderlust played into his pursuit of ecotourism and entomology [14:59] Traveling after college [17:50] What is conservation, ecotourism, sustainable and regenerative travel [21:16] Working with local communities [29:31] What Court does to ensure minimal impact and maximum contribution to a place he’s visiting [32:58] Some sustainable best practices for travel and day-to-day life [38:39] How photography came into Court’s life [41:34] How conservation, travel and photography come together [44:20] Photographing the monarch butterfly migration [47:48] What caused the greatest impact in the evolution and growth of the travel industry [49:34] What has he learned about himself, the world and life through traveling [54:27] Rapid fire questions [57:48] Court’s self-care habits at home [59:19] His advice to the listeners [1:01:45] Where to contact Court [1:02:14] Outro   Resources:  Court Whelan’s website Court Whelan on Instagram The Wild Photographer podcast The Monarch Migration: A Journey through the Monarch Butterfly's Winter Home by Court Whelan The Secret Life of Walter Mitty Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World--and Why Things Are Better Than You Think by Anna Rosling Rönnlund, Hans Rosling, and Ola Rosling The Blue Zones Kitchen: 100 Recipes to Live to 100 by Dan Buettner
