The end of an era, and the start of something new They say all good things must come to an end, and the Good Sesh is no exception! My time leading Big Little Brush has come to an end, and I've handed the reins of over to the amazing crew at Red Dust. (read more about that here.) With that in mind, it feels only right to bring the Good Sesh to a close too.

A huge thank you to everyone who's been a guest, has listened to the show, or supported us in some way. It's deeply appreciated :) I'm enjoying having less on my plate and getting back to some of the other things I love in life. Stay in touch! Nothing but love (: JH x

Andrew Van De Beek is pretty amazing! He is the Director and Co-Founder of Illumin8 and the Co-Founder of a social enterprise - Big Little Brush.   Andrew is passionate about working with people to help their business and investment performances meet their life goals and dreams. Knowing why they choose to do what they do puts everything into perspective. He’s keenly interested in working with new businesses and original ideas, helping to discover ideal business software and technologies to help them succeed while providing the right level of advice for any need or concern.   Andrew really moves away from stereotypes that have covered the accounting profession in the past. A position where importance is given to ethical, reliable and genuine relationships with clients is paramount to him. It’s only then that real change and growth can begin.   In this episode we cover: Being obsessed with what people are doing and what they could be doing. Being a whiskey enthusiast and his dream to open a whiskey bar one day as a life goal. Having a rebellious side and what it actually means - and it’s not what you think! What makes Illumin8 different to the “normal” accounting firm and what’s at the core of their purpose. Embracing technology as a completely cloud based business.     And much more! Check out the full episode.       [FOOD FOR THOUGHT]  No one wins when you don’t speak truth and honesty. People should be able to work where they live, not live where they work.   [FOLLOW US]  • Our Website  • FB Page - You Legal  • FB Group - Accountants On Purpose  • FB Page - Accountants On Purpose  • LinkedIn - Sarah Bartholomeusz  • LinkedIn – You Legal  • Twitter - Sarah Bartholomeusz  • Twitter - You Legal    [OUR SPONSOR] Thinclab 90 Day Sprint  ThincLab | University of Adelaide   [GUEST SOCIALS]  • LinkedIn   • Illumin8      • Big Little Brush       [ABOUT THE HOST]  Sarah Bartholomeusz is the founder of You Legal, an Adelaide-based law firm that provides business leaders with the confidence and certainty they need to make bold decisions within their organisations.  You Legal provides top tier consultative legal services to corporate clients, including ASX listed companies.  Sarah's clients also call her the Goddess of Governance because she works to protect and nurture her clients’ businesses so that they can focus on having the impact that they want in the world.

Did you know a conventional plastic toothbrush can take up to 600 years to break down? Yikes! Joel Hanna is a co-founder of Big Little Brush, a venture selling sustainable bamboo toothbrushes that take only a year to decompose. On top of the eco-friendly factor, Big Little Brush channels 100 per cent of profits into primary health programs in Indigenous communities across Australia. In this bite-sized episode, we sat down with Joel (who also happens to be a 2017 Good Stuff awards finalist) to hear about how a dental debacle lead to a change-making social enterprise.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode Mark does a panel interview with members of the Climate Reality Project, the group formed by Al Gore just after the release of An Inconvenient Truth, to train others to give his powerful presentation on climate change facts. In the panel are the two interns that together with Linh Do make up the Australian chapter of the group. Katy and Chris are just finishing their post-graduate studies, and they give great insight into what it's like to be a student at a time of rapid change and public polarization on climate change. Marcus Gibson, trained to be a Climate Reality leader twelve years ago, has given hundreds of presentations, and recalls what that journey has been like. We talk a lot about what the group is, where things are at currently, and about the way forward. We also manage to break some news, with the announcement that after 5 years, there is another Climate Reality training coming to Australia. June 2019, Brisbane, Queensland. We give a plug for the competition Climactic is running for University of Melbourne students, applications open now.

One way to describe the go all in philosophy is to say that you are going to do something about it. You might be sick of the way your life is going, your finances, your relationships or you may have had enough of what you are seeing in society.But how many of us really do something about it? We have all sorts of media coming at us every day both good and bad, and when you see a story or read an article that strikes at the core of your beliefs how often does it move you to act?Sure, you might get upset for a while but are you going to do something about it? Our guest today has done something about what he believes is important, it and when I tell you what it is it will really make you think about our responsibility to future generations.Joel is the co-founder of Big Little Brush. His business sits right at the intersection of social and environmental issues today. He asks the question, “What can we, as consumers, do today to make a difference?” And it is a great question. Joel’s company manufactures and distributes a toothbrush that is made from bamboo and nylon which is completely bio degradable.Just imagine, every tooth brush that has ever been made is still around today in land fill somewhere and will take more than 600 years to degrade!Now if I’m completely honest, I never gave a moment’s thought to my toothbrush, but when Joel put it into context for me, and showed me with his business, that he is doing something about it I knew he had an amazing go all in story. Things don’t need to stay the same and we can do something about it, especially the environment.As custodians of this land we are responsible for handing it off in a better state than we found it to the next generation however we don’t seem to be doing that. Joel is a guy that is going all in and making a decisive change for the better.https://www.biglittlebrush.org

  Andrew Van De Beek. is one of the Founders of a new social enterprise Big Little Brush and the Director of illumin8, a holistic business accountant and business advisory firm he started with a partner at the young age of 26. To say that Andrew is one of the most unconventional accountants I think I have ever met might be an understatement - and I’m excited for you to see why. His professional career started at one of the big 4 accounting firms, from there at another firm he worked his way to potential partnership opportunities, and eventually leading him to start his own firm as he searched for something aligned to his values.   One thing I love about Andrew’s story is it seems to smack the “conventional wisdom” I hear all the time of someone needing some unknown (but substantial) amount of experience before you can start a particular business/career/project. And then when they do start they so often become another “me too” looking and sounding like everyone else out there and watering down what makes them unique and authentic. As we navigate through Andrew’s journey you’ll get a raw and unapologetic discussion on playing to your strengths, being true to yourself, and dreaming bigger than perhaps you ever thought! If you’ve ever sat there, like I’ve done, and didn’t feel that you were ready to take that next big step with your career or business, you need to listen to this! I love how he takes us through his thought process of getting started in his business and the approach he uses, that is elegantly simple yet guaranteed, to help you get started before you ever probably thought you could.
