Today, we're happy to share an episode from Learn with Dr. Emily, where she interviews comedian and ADHDer, Penn Holderness. Enjoy! --- Growing up, Penn Holderness knew he was different than his friends. He had tics. He was called a spazz. He would cry really easily. In basketball practice, he would nearly chew through his shirt if he wasn't running around enough. If he was growing up in the 2020's, he'd be treated for ADHD pretty quickly. But back in the 80's, ADHD information wasn't widespread, and it wasn't until college that he was officially diagnosed. On today's episode, Penn talks about growing up with ADHD, finding his passion for music and performing arts, learning how to accept his limitations and lean into his superpowers, and how he would design a school for ADHD minds.

Always having a love for the sea, Emily Penn took a journey from Shanghai to Melbourne, Australia that would change her life, as she saw first-hand the extent of pollution in the world's oceans. Since then, she has organized the largest ever community-led waste cleanup operation, completed a trip around the world solely using biofuel, and created various avenues for people—from ordinary citizens to filmmakers—to discover and document the damage microplastics have done to our oceans. Emily also runs eXXpedition, a series of sailing voyages where crew members—all women—focus on researching the connection between pollution and female health.  Emily joins Jay to share her insights into ocean advocacy, what lessons we can learn from the past, and how governments, companies, and communities can reimagine the way we create and consume products.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I met Natascha at the [y]our2040 gathering in Switzerland in June this year and spoke to her for a short interview where I found out that she had been part of the Exxpedition Atlantic crossing and wanted to know more about it. Somehow we managed to also discuss differing opinions on feminism and identity politics and the value of common decency which just made it all the more interesting : ) Exxpedition is an all women's sailing voyage across different parts of the world's oceans where the participants collect data, mainly about plastics in the oceans with the help of trained professionals, founded by the skipper and ocean advocate Emily Penn. Natascha shares her memories from this three week voyage and the experiences and learnings that she had out on the water. Natascha is an outspoken feminist and wants to do her part to contribute to a whole and more just world in different ways. We open up a conversation about the meaning of feminism and other labels that people tend to give themselves and sometimes even feel obligated to. We try to get closer to the reasons for division and occasional misuses of different words and phrases and if they should even be as important as they are made out to be in today's "hyper aware and correct" political climate. This conversation touches on many different issues and thoughts that we feel should be discussed openly and in respectful manners - much more so without "cancelling" one another but rather inviting in discourse, trying to open ourselves up to different view points and realities. Like the currents of the ocean we let this conversation flow in different directions and we hope you enjoy this Talk

Sail away in this episode with Emily Penn, co-founder and mission director of eXXpedition, the all-female sailing voyage and scientific research mission investigating the causes of and solutions to ocean plastic pollution.

Emily Penn shares her remarkable story sailing the Oceans of the planet panning for plastic mirco particles. Her shocking discovery that the sun and the waves breaks plastic down into its chemicals is new news. It is these plastic chemicals that can enter the flesh of fish and our own bodies that is most frightening and unknown before. Emily is bringing a smart and strategic approach to reducing plastic deposits in our seas by applying the science of chemical analysis to target the culprits - and it is actually shocking to hear, and yet inspiring too. I tracked Emily down because I wanted to get the facts following talking to Jo Ruxton on what was really happening to fish as a result of plastic in the sea.[A longer episode but worth listening to]

Meet Emily Penn, a woman on a mission to inspire positive change. Discover her insights as an ocean advocate and learn of her journey of slow travel,  which led her to leading all-female sailing expeditions across the Atlantic, tackling microplastics. From talking to action, in this episode, Rach and Emily explore how diverse perspectives across the globe can address practical solutions to living in a more sustainable and kinder way.  This tea inspires us all to make a positive change - let's save our oceans.

Before all the Covid-19 hit the news and somewhere after the fire in Australia I had the pleasure to speak with Emily Penn about a topic that was in the news at the time, the impact single use plastics were having in our lives and more importantly how plastic was now in our food chain and no doubt, within us too.As you'll hear she was lovely to talk to and her knowledge and the factual evidence she had to hand on the subject matter has certainly made me think in more detail about the consequences and responsibilities we have as consumers.

Emily Penn is a British sailor and the co-founder of eXXpedition - a series of all-women voyages exploring the impacts of plastics and toxins in our oceans. "The only way to reduce the potential impacts on human health and the environment is to reduce consumption," she says. But where to begin? For the next two years, a total of 300 women will sail around the world on eXXpedition's voyages of discovery, to look deep into what's going on with plastic in our oceans, and try to come up with solutions.  Why XX? Women are underrepresented in science and sailing  - the XX in the title refers to the female sex chromosome. But it's the impacts these toxins might have on women that will blow your mind. Could plastic pollution be gender discriminatory? Could women suffer greater effects from it than men? Remember, pollution can bio-accumulate - the fish eat the plastic, and we eat the fish. We know that, but there is much we remain in the dark about. Of the estimated 700 contaminants in our bodies, many have barely been researched.

Our oceans are threatened by plastic pollution and overfishing. Kim Chakanetsa speaks to two pioneering women who are working to sustain our seas. Asha de Vos is a marine biologist who founded Oceanswell, Sri Lanka's first marine conservation and research organisation. Asha's particular research interest is blue whales. She says every stretch of coastline needs its own local hero, and it doesn't have to be a scientist. Emily Penn is a British oceans advocate and skipper who founded eXXpedition - a series of all-female sailing voyages around the world. These trips always include a group of non-sailors from different countries, and their aim is to raise awareness and find solutions for the impact of single use plastic on the ocean.

You can’t be alive today and not know that plastic, especially single-use plastic, is a huge problem on the planet. Only 9% is recycled and the rest - well we are discovering, a lot of it ends up in the ocean. Today I have the privilege of interviewing Emily Penn, a skipper and ocean advocate who has traveled to the most remote parts of the ocean to witness the microplastics and the damage it’s doing. She also discusses the effects of plastic on human health and her own shock discovery after a test.Through our discussion, we come to the conclusion that it truly is a desirable situation and all single-use plastic must cease to exist immediately. The positive side of this is there is so much we can all do to help flip this around and to come back to Thrive with Nature.

Skipper and oceans advocate Emily Penn explains the damage that plastic pollution is having on our oceans, and how we can find solutions. Check out the show notes for more information.

Emily Penn is an ocean advocate and skipper who's spent the last decade exploring plastic pollution from the tropics to the Arctic. She's on a mission to inspire and facilitate a community of changemakers through her project eXXpedition and by training athletes and celebrities to be impactful advocates on ocean issues. In this podcast episode, Emily sheds light on why people in developed countries can't just look at the primary sources of ocean plastic pollution stemming from 'developing countries' and feel that this absolves us of responsibility; the known and unknown health impacts of chronic exposure to plastic bits and their associated chemicals; and more.   Episode notes: www.greendreamer.com/183 Weekly solutions-based news: www.greendreamer.com  Support the show: www.greendreamer.com/support  Instagram: www.instagram.com/greendreamerpodcast

Emily Penn's appearance on this week's edition of The Sustainability Report Podcast couldn't be more timely. Next month, the ocean advocate and skipper will embark on her most ambitious project to date: sending 300 multidisciplinary women around the world to conduct scientific research on the growing ocean plastics crisis.The eXXpedition crew will experience 30 voyages (equating to 38,000 nautical miles) over a two-year period attempting to find a solution to the declining health of the Earth's waters, that are being impacted massively by the ubiquity of the material in our everyday lives. It's estimated that eight million tonnes of plastic is being dumped in the ocean every year, polluting the water and posing a significant threat to marine life.During this episode, Emily will discuss her decade-long campaign to raise awareness of the issue and her quest to encourage every one of us to reevaluate our relationship with plastic.Crucially, she will talk about how the sports industry – a major purchaser and provider of single-use plastic – can change its behaviour and offer more sustainable products related to athlete hydration and food and beverage packaging for fans.Emily has worked with World Sailing, The Ocean Race and Sky Ocean Rescue – which has collaborated with several Premier League football clubs to provide reusable cups for fans during games – to move the needle in sport. But her message is crystal clear: an awful lot more needs to be done by all stakeholders.“You have governing bodies in each of these different sports and if they can come along and change the rules a bit to incentivise people to do things sustainably, then that means you can be competitive and move the bar on sustainability at the same time,” she says.“It's really important to get buy-in from all parties – we need the governance there, but we also need industry coming to the table, and the competitors and individuals passionate about the issue as well.”

Exxpedition round the world 2019-2020 is an all-female sailing voyage and scientific research mission. Over 38,000 nautical miles and 30 voyage legs starting and ending in the UK, Exxpedition crews will explore plastics and toxins in our ocean, via four of the five oceanic gyres and the artic. Emily Penn is an oceans advocate, skipper and artist; a graduate of Cambridge University with a degree in Architecture. Emily splits her time between running eXXpedition - a series of all female voyages which focus on the relationship between plastics and toxics and female health - and working on solving the ocean plastics issue with Parley for the Oceans and other corporate clients.

Recorded live at the LSA Summer Event hosted by Taylor Wessing, this podcast gives an insight into what inspired Emily to take on a life of advocacy on behalf of the planet ocean as she would call it. Emily is about to lead another eXXpedition to the North Pacific - follow her voyage here.  She has promised to talk to us when she gets back.

This is an episode close to my heart. Emily Penn is an ocean advocate, skipper and campaigner. She is on a mission to get us all to save our oceans and understand the impact of plastic pollution on particularly female health. So whilst we speak about success, there have been few routines in Emily’s life, but ambitious goals to make this world a better and cleaner place. Her journey is amazing and what I took away from this episode is even more awareness on how many plastic bags we use, how polluted the oceans are and that it isn’t too late for us to save our planet. Feel free to learn more about Emily’s adventures on her website or reach out to hear on Twitter @emilypenn.

Untertitel folgen in Kürze auf Youtube)   Vor 4 Jahren habe ich auf einer Konferenz Emily Penn kennengelernt, seitdem folge ich ihr und ihren Abenteuern auf Instagram. Emily Penn kommt aus England, ist Aktivistin, Weltumsegelerin und Gründerin der eXXpedition. Im Laufe ihres Architekturstudiums bekommt sie die Möglichkeit für ein Praktikum in einem Eco-Village in Shanghai. Aber anstatt mit dem Flugzeug zu fliegen, beschließt sie, auf dem Landweg nach Shanghai zu reisen und während ihrer sechswöchigen Reise entwickelt sich ihre Liebe für die Schönheit der Erde. Seitdem ist Emily bereits mehrfach um die Erde gesegelt und widmet sich der Lösung des Plastikmüll-Problems in unseren Meeren.   Ich freu mich sehr, dieses unglaublich inspirierende Interview mit dir zu teilen und dich mit in der Welt von Emily Penn zu nehmen.   Wir sprechen in dem Interview über Emily’s Leben auf dem Wasser, all die Reisen, die sie bereits gemacht hat und die Orte, die sie besucht hat. Sie erzählt von den Plastikmassen im Meer und welchen Effekt dieser Müll unter anderem auch auf unsere Gesundheit hat (besonders für Frauen). Emily ist einer der Menschen, die mich in diesem Jahr am meisten mit ihrem unbändigen Optimismus und ihrem Commitment diese Welt zu verändern, beeindruckt hat.   Du erfährst in dieser Folge:   warum es so wichtig ist, deiner Bestimmung und deinem Herzen zu folgen wie du selbst ins Handeln kommen kannst, wenn dich etwas massiv auf dieser Erde stört warum wir alle einen Beitrag leisten können, um Probleme auf globaler Ebene zu lösen warum es jeden Grund für Hoffnung gibt und es sehr erfüllend ist, sich für etwas wirklich einzusetzen   Links zu Emily Penn: Homepage: http://www.emilypenn.co.uk/ eXXpedition: http://www.emilypenn.co.uk/exxpedition Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/missemilypenn   *** Weitere Links von Laura *** Rise Up & Shine University: https://lauraseiler.com/rise-up-and-shine-university/ Buch Mögest du glücklich sein - Jetzt bestellen: http://lauraseiler.com/buch/ Manifestationsformel: http://lauraseiler.com/manifestations-formel/ Danke für deine Bewertung hier auf iTunes! https://itunes.apple.com/de/podcast/happy-holy-confident.-dein/id1091677215?mt=2 Instagram: @lauramalinaseiler  http://bit.ly/2pxW1wg Facebook: Laura Seiler Mindful Empowerment https://www.facebook.com/lauraseilercoaching/ Rock on & Namasté Deine Laura  

Emily Penn has organized the largest ever community-led waste cleanup from a tiny Tongan island, trawled for micro plastics on a voyage through the Arctic Northwest Passage, rounded the planet on the record-breaking biofueled boat Earthrace, and worked on a sailing cargo ship trading western supplies for coconuts. Emily splits her time between running eXXpedition - a series of all female voyages which focus on the relationship between plastics, toxics, and female health - and working to solve the ocean plastics issue with Parley for the Oceans and other corporate clients. Prior to this, Emily co-founded Pangaea Explorations, to enable scientists, filmmakers and everyday people gain access to the most remote parts of our planet; collecting data on global issues and along the way discovered the previously unknown oceanic gyres – huge areas of plastic pollution accumulation. Emily was honored with the Fitzroy Award at the 2016 Ocean Awards and is also the youngest and only female recipient of both the Yachtmaster of the Year, awarded by HRH Princess Royal, and the Seamaster of the Year award. She is a Fellow of the Royal Geographical society and in 2017 was elected as a member of the Cordon Rouge Club.
