We form a lot of different kinds of relationships in our careers. Some are transactional, and others are more personal. Drew Wilkinson, founder of the Climate Leadership Collective, makes the case that understanding the various natures of these relationships – and fostering as many as possible – can help both individuals and the planet. After working his way from musician to the leader of Microsoft's employee sustainability community, Drew now works as a consultant. He helps others grow the social ecosystems that will help us all thrive. Resources: If you're looking for a climate community, this list is a great place to start: https://www.climatedraft.org/resourcesHere are some of the communities Drew has been tapping into: Work on Climate: https://workonclimate.org/about-us/Project Drawdown: https://drawdown.org/aboutEmployee Climate Action Network: https://employeeclimateaction.network/You can learn more about Drew on his website: https://www.drewwilkinson.earth/And LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewmartinwilkinson/The punk rock song you heard was Destroy All Calendars from Drew's band, Run with The Hunted.

Ep 230 | This week on Discover Ag, Natalie and Tara dig into AI-powered potato sorting, cowboy boot emojis, and McDonald's massive regenerative agriculture investment — plus a Clarkson's Farm debrief and Lil Wayne's unexpected horse racing debut. First up: Potato Ty takes viewers behind the scenes of green potato sorting on his Canadian farm. The hosts explore how AI technology identifies toxic potatoes (yes, green potatoes contain solanine and shouldn't be eaten), the fascinating machinery that sorts them, and why dairy cows are the ultimate recyclers — eating those green potatoes safely thanks to their multiple stomachs. It's a masterclass in agricultural innovation and food waste reduction. Then, Ariat's social media team makes a bold move: an open letter to Apple demanding better cowboy boot emojis. With three British guard options but no proper Western representation, the hosts debate whether this PSA will spark real change and share their own emoji habits (spoiler: Tara switched to grayscale mode and can no longer tell which heart she's sending). Next, Lil Wayne enters the horse racing world with his stallion "Six Hoof Seven Hoof" (named after his hit "6 Foot 7 Foot"). Tara shares her family's deep horse racing history, from summers in Delmar to a touching tribute to her late father-in-law through a racehorse named Randy's Reserve. BUT WAIT — there's more! McDonald's announces a $200 million commitment over seven years to promote regenerative agriculture practices on 4 million acres across 38 states. Natalie and Tara dissect whether this is genuine change or greenwashing, how grants will reach family ranches in the cow-calf sector, and what it means when major suppliers like Cargill co-fund the initiative. Plus: insights from an upcoming Dear Disco interview with food scientist Stefan Van Vliet on labeling and marketing in agriculture. What We Discovered This Week

Sound bites:“I consistently had the opportunity to quit or fail or close. There's always that possibility.”“I think it's important to stay grounded, but also connected to a big vision and sometimes just to trust that the universe will show us opportunities along the way that we can't even plan for.”“The last thing we need is another generic consumer product… the only thing we might need more of is like brands making a difference and making an impact.”“With my own sobriety journey, I was just feeling consistently like something was missing for me and my friends and people I knew who were not drinking alcohol.”“It's 100 % regenerative. They just don't have the certification yet.”“It's like, instead of just taking and taking from Mother Earth, it's like we have an exchange.”“We're finding is that plants grown in regenerative soil are better for humans as well.”“There's so many systems ripe for change.”“I would like to see more people showing up in their healthy self.”“I've seen firsthand the ripple effect of unhealed trauma on families, on communities, on villages, and on generational impact.”Links:Sara Stender Delaney on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarastenderdelaney/Sarilla - https://www.drinksarilla.com/Sarilla on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/drinksarilla/Sarilla on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/drinksarilla/Sarilla on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/DrinkSarillaSarilla on X - https://x.com/drinksarillaSarilla on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@drinksarillaSarilla on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@drinksarilla…Brands for a Better World Episode Archive - http://brandsforabetterworld.com/Brands for a Better World on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/brand-for-a-better-world/Modern Species - https://modernspecies.com/Modern Species on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/modern-species/Gage Mitchell on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gagemitchell/…Print Magazine Design Podcasts - https://www.printmag.com/categories/printcast/…Heritage Radio Network - https://heritageradionetwork.org/Heritage Radio Network on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/heritage-radio-network/posts/Heritage Radio Network on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/HeritageRadioNetworkHeritage Radio Network on X - https://x.com/Heritage_RadioHeritage Radio Network on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/heritage_radio/Heritage Radio Network on Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@heritage_radioChapters:03:00 Introduction to Sarilla Beverage and Its Origins14:50 The Impact of Rwanda on Sara's Journey24:50 The Birth of Sarilla Beverage31:45 Product Development and Challenges38:52 Navigating the Beverage Industry39:50 Building a Supportive Network50:55 Understanding Regenerative Agriculture01:05:09 Envisioning a Better WorldSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What is regenerative farming and what does it have to do with beer? In this episode, presented by Proximity Malt (https://proximitymalt.com), we tackle that question with experts from each phase of the malt supply chain—farmer, maltster, and brewer. Joining the podcast: Walker Modic, environmental program director at New Belgium (https://www.newbelgium.com) and Bell's (https://bellsbeer.com) Derek Heersink, barley farmer and brewery owner (https://www.herkswerks.com) Zach Gaines, commercial director at Proximity Malt (https://proximitymalt.com) In this episode, they share their perspectives on what is and isn't possible through regenerative agriculture; how its context-dependent approach to soil health builds resilience in the face of increasing climate challenges; and how breweries can articulate value to consumers while managing their own supply-chain risks. This episode is brought to you interruption-free by Proximity Malt (https://proximitymalt.com), the first new-generation, full-scale, regional malting facility in North America, leading the way in malt supply with premium grains; advanced technology that maximizes flavor, performance, flexibility and efficiency; regional sourcing for closer, fresher grain; and a deep focus on closing the loop between farmer, maltster, brewer, and the communities that support each.

"What if the key to economic transformation lies not in bigger budgets or top-down directives, but in fostering community ownership and equitable systems?"Alfredo and I discuss the need for more regenerative financial models and to start really working in small communities and joining together into a network of networks. Current models are very redistributive (e.g. taxing success, subsidisation for those with no access) but pre-distribution gives everyone a stake; if communities win, everyone wins and gains autonomy and agency.We discuss the need for more diverse thinking and more equitable access to funding and business opportunities. Generating new ideas by combining what already exists and creating surplus value that can then move around is the key, but we need to do this better, faster and in collaboration. Building entrepreneur-led ecosystems requires prioritizing ownership, pre-distribution, and maintaining a human scale. It is easier to build from scratch, and this will be the challenge of transforming established institutions and organisations, but they will have to transition, whether they like it or not.We know that innovation often stems from unconventional approaches and questioning established norms, where individuals without traditional backgrounds can bring fresh perspectives. Hitting “walls” in conventional paths can be a catalyst for divergent thinking, pushing beyond perceived limitations to realise that seemingly permanent constructs can be circumventedLeaders need to step outside their echo chambers, we spend way too much time talking to people who look and think like us and we should be actively broadening horizons by reading, talking to people outside our immediate circle, and exploring new ideas. This is not on one person or community, but is a generational effort to influence and impact the systems we seek to transformAlfredo generously shares his intentional design principles, experiences and personal journey to setting up the world's first shared prosperity community corporation (SPCC) operates at the intersection of workforce, education and entrepreneurship with a focus on equity, economic transformation and rethinking leadership.The main insights you'll get from this episode are : - Innovation comes from the fringes: when pursuing a goal, hitting a wall makes you realise you have to find a different way to get round things – these walls serve as ‘flexion points' rather than obstacles on the path to a breakthrough moment.- Community-based entrepreneurship makes innovation possible with few resources, as constrained resources force commitment, agency and risk-taking -asking for help from the right people creates something organically.- Process of identifying an issue/problem and finding the most transformative thing to move forward and grow; this is generational work, starting small and moving through systems to aspiration.- Design principles offer constraint, and the focus should be on ownership first (for ownership democracy and shared prosperity) for everyone to have an interest – distributed ownership is required for a regenerative economy.- Current models are very redistributive (e.g. taxing success, subsidisation for those with no access) but pre-distribution gives everyone a stake; if communities win, everyone wins and gains autonomy and agency.- Present VC models are designed around the founder and investors as opposed to everyone involved – a ‘winner takes all' approach; pre-distribution means nobody does anything on their own, often building on others' work and ideas.- Humans evolved in small groups and that's where we work best, small groups...

In this conversation, Bryon White, co-founder of Yaupon Brothers, discusses the unique qualities and benefits of Yaupon, the only caffeine-containing plant native to North America. He shares insights into the history of Yaupon, its cultivation, and the innovative flavored blends that have emerged. The discussion also covers their recent influencer branded products and the importance of building authentic relationships with influencers for successful marketing. We discuss the challenges faced by the CPG industry, and the role of regenerative agriculture in sustainable farming practices. Bryon emphasizes the need for entrepreneurs to understand their customers and the significance of leaving the world better than we found it.Takeaways:Yaupon is the only caffeine-containing plant native to North America.Historically, Yaupon was widely consumed across various cultures for its energizing and medicinal properties.Yaupon offers a smoother taste compared to traditional teas due to its lower tannin content.Theobromine in Yaupon provides a chill energy boost without jitters.Yaupon Brothers focuses on cultivating unique varietals for better tea production.Flavored Yaupon blends have gained popularity, appealing to a broader audience.Building authentic relationships with influencers can lead to successful collaborations.Regenerative agriculture practices are integral to Yaupon cultivation.Entrepreneurs should prioritize understanding their customers before launching products.The CPG industry faces challenges with rising costs across the supply chain, local production is a big win.Sound bites:“Yaupon has been associated with mental, spiritual, and physical purity for at least 8,000 years, probably longer than that. And only in the last 150, 200 years has it really sort of been forgotten about.”“Yaupon is the only caffeine source native to North America.”“It's very similar to tea in terms of its caffeine content, but with a higher ratio of theobromine to caffeine, meaning that it's a way more chill experience.”"Flavored Yaupon blends have gained popularity."“Yaupon is the only caffeinated holly native to in North America. The other two are in South America and those are yerba mate and wayusa.”“Yaupon trees provide habitat for wildlife, they provide food for pollinators, they help stabilize the soil, and when we harvest the trees, we tend to put the woody material from the harvesting process back into the soil, so there could be like a carbon sequestration component as well.”“We were able to give Uncle Pappy a way to monetize his following without doing things that he wasn't comfortable doing. Without selling out, so to speak.”“We have a 5 % give back to Friends of the Everglades, which was something that Uncle Pappy cared about a lot and something that we jive with.”"The CPG industry faces rising costs and challenges.""Social media has made us dumb and inconsiderate."Links:Bryon White on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/bryon-white-b9b172b0/Yaupon Brothers - https://yauponbrothers.com/Yaupon Brothers on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/YauponAsiTea/Yaupon Brothers on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/yauponteaYaupon Brothers on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1hGFk-WriknjdCK0iqF0MQYaupon Brothers on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@yauponbrothers…Black Drink, A Native American Tea (Book) - https://www.thriftbooks.com/w/black-drink-a-native-american-tea/2851945/item/28550797/#edition=3163440&idiq=33503911…Uncle Pappy Florida Chai - https://yauponbrothers.com/products/yaupon-tea-uncle-pappys-zippacket-16Uncle Pappy on Instagram - https://www.everglades.org/Uncle Pappy on Tik Tok - https://www.tiktok.com/@unc.pappyUncle Pappy on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7arn0PnTCPNbAKRzNhD-vQFriends of the Everglades - https://www.everglades.org/…Brands for a Better World Episode Archive - http://brandsforabetterworld.com/Brands for a Better World on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/brand-for-a-better-world/Modern Species - https://modernspecies.com/Modern Species on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/modern-species/Gage Mitchell on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gagemitchell/…Print Magazine Design Podcasts - https://www.printmag.com/categories/printcast/…Heritage Radio Network - https://heritageradionetwork.org/Heritage Radio Network on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/heritage-radio-network/posts/Heritage Radio Network on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/HeritageRadioNetworkHeritage Radio Network on X - https://x.com/Heritage_RadioHeritage Radio Network on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/heritage_radio/Heritage Radio Network on Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@heritage_radioChapters:03:00 Introduction to Yaupon and Its Significance05:50 Health Benefits and Unique Qualities of Yaupon08:48 Consumer Reactions and Perceptions of Yaupon11:41 Yaupon Varietals and Flavored Blends14:41 The Founding Story of Yaupon Brothers17:41 Processing Yaupon and Its Accessibility20:45 Affiliate Marketing and Influencer Collaborations23:48 Successful Collaborations and Product Development26:45 Future of Affiliate Marketing and Building Relationships41:51 The Shift in Investment Landscape44:52 Challenges in Starting New Ventures47:44 Influencer Collaborations and Market Expansion52:37 Embracing Regenerative Agriculture58:03 Advice for Aspiring Entrepreneurs01:06:32 Defining a Better WorldSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

How do the stories we tell ourselves and each other about ourselves, each other and our place in the web of life shape our world?How can we craft narratives that can shift the way we see and experience the world? Is this even the best leverage point to start off with or is there a deeper/wider/more effective acupuncture point we could explore as we evolve to become…what?  What are we aiming for? What—who—do we want to be and how might we reach places we can't even express - and do it in the face of a world where narratives are becoming more black-and-white, more constrained by circumstances, more held by those with power? In a week that's seen our world become both more complex, more ugly and more beautiful, we're talking to story-crafter and narrative-explorer, Paddy Loughman. Paddy's work explores the role of narrative and communications in navigating beyond our predicament. He is curious about how we might come together to appreciate what science and wisdom traditions reveal about entangled, relational reality, and the potential of more viable, beautiful worlds.

The global food system stands at a crossroads. Climate change is reshaping where crops can grow, trade disputes threaten supply chains, and smallholder farmers who produce much of our food often have the least power in the system. Meet Heather Terry, founder and CEO of GoodSAM Foods, and discover how the company is transforming the traditional smallhold farm model by putting people and regenerative agriculture at the heart of a growing food company. GoodSAM Foods sources 90% of its ingredients directly from smallholder farms in Latin America and Africa, eliminating middlemen and reinvesting profits into farming communities. Terry's approach is both principled and pragmatic: as climate volatility reduces crop yields globally, the companies that have built genuine relationships with farmers will have access to limited harvests. "When I'm a farmer and I suddenly have leverage, who am I going to sell that product to?" Terry asks. "It's relationships."[Terry's journey to raise $9 million in Series A funding over 18 months illustrates the disconnect between traditional investors and regenerative business models. After facing skepticism from conventional CPG investors, she found success with impact investors who understood that sustainable food systems represent the future of the industry. While GoodSAM maintains USDA Organic and Non-GMO Project verification, Terry takes a critical stance on regenerative certification labels, arguing that current systems impose Global North standards on farmers who have practiced regenerative techniques for generations. Instead, GoodSAM focuses on direct relationships and on-ground verification. Her proactive approach protected both the company and its farming partners from sudden economic shocks at a time when the U.S. food system faces mounting pressures from climate impacts and trade policy changes. "Every time you pick something up off the shelf, you are voting," Terry said. "You're sending a signal to a company."You can learn more about GoodSAM Foods at goodsamfoods.com.Subscribe to Sustainability In Your Ear on iTunesFollow Sustainability In Your Ear on Spreaker, iHeartRadio, or YouTube

Exploring the Efficacy of BMAC and ADSC Injections in Knee Osteoarthritis   Hosts: David Rosenblum,MD Overview: In this episode, we delve into a recent study published in the Indian Journal of Orthopaedics that compares the therapeutic efficacy of Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC) and Adipose-Derived Stem Cells (ADSCs) for treating knee osteoarthritis (OA). The study aims to provide insights into the effectiveness of these regenerative treatments and their correlation with mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) cellularity. Key Points Discussed: Background on Osteoarthritis: Definition and impact of OA, particularly in older populations. Overview of traditional treatments and the shift towards regenerative medicine. Study Objectives: To compare the efficacy of BMAC and ADSC injections in symptomatic knee OA patients. To analyze MSC quantity and quality in harvested tissues from both sources. Methodology: Description of the study design involving 60 patients with knee OA. Details on patient demographics, injection protocols, and follow-up assessments (VAS, WOMAC, ROM). Results: Significant improvements in clinical scores for both BMAC and ADSC groups at 6 months. Discussion on the lack of significant correlation between MSC quantity and treatment efficacy. Insights into the success rates of MSC cultures from both bone marrow and adipose tissue. Conclusions: Both treatments demonstrated clinical improvements, with no substantial differences between them. BMAC showed higher MSC counts and faster recovery rates, but further research is needed to understand the underlying factors affecting efficacy. Implications for Clinical Practice: Considerations for clinicians when choosing between BMAC and ADSC treatments. Future directions for research in regenerative therapies for knee OA.

Gabe Brown was thinking about and practicing regenerative grazing before it had a name. Grazing management that maintains the productive potential of naturally occurring ecosystems is an ecological imperative that is as needful today as it was 10,000 years ago. In this conversation between Gabe and Tip, they land on definitions for regenerative grazing, discuss problems with the term 'sustainable agriculture', and speculate on future directions for ecological agriculturalists. And Gabe answers a question he's never been asked before. The Art of Range Podcast is supported by the Idaho Rangeland Resources Commission; Vence, a subsidiary of Merck Animal Health; and the Western Extension Risk Management Education Center.

In this conversation, Simón Sacal, CEO and co-founder of Solely, shares his journey toward building a company focused on creating healthy fruit snacks made entirely from real fruit. He explains the challenges of using real fruit in manufacturing, the importance building a reliable supply chain, and how the patented innovations that unlocked their ability to make indulgent yet nutritious products. He then shares vision for the future of the company, advice for aspiring food entrepreneurs, and how he believes that aligned incentives in the food system can lead to a better world.Takeaways:Solely aims to revolutionize fruit snacks by using only real fruit.The evolution of fruit snacks from their original candy origin.Using real fruit in manufacturing presents unique challenges.Organic sourcing is a priority, but making indulgent yet nutritious whole food snacks is their purpose.Eliminating waste in the supply chain is crucial for efficiency.Building strong relationships with farmers is essential for success, especially when using whole, fresh ingredients.Innovative manufacturing processes allow for shelf-stable fruit products without preservatives.Future growth will focus on expanding product lines while maintaining quality.Aspiring entrepreneurs should ensure their product solves a real problem.Business must be treated as a sustainable venture, not just a passion project.Sound bites:“So I have a very, very long story. I've been doing this for more than 25 years.”“We're designed to crave sweetness, and in nature the only place that you find sweetness is in fruit.”"We help farmers use 100% of what they grow.”“All the incentives are aligned and everyone makes money from each other's success.”“The process has to be very mild to the fruit. And then you need to manufacture it in a way that you don't need preservatives.”“It's all about the basics. This is not rocket science. The product has to taste amazing. It has to be priced in line with everything else. It has to communicate well to the consumer. It has to have a market fit.”“To make a product out of fruit, you need to create the whole supply chain and understand how to do it in a way that's profitable, that works for the supply chain, for the farmers, for you.”“At the end of the day, it's just a great product that checks all the boxes.”Links:Simуn Sacal on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/sim%C3%B3n-sacal-05265715a/Solely - https://solely.com/Solely on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/solely-inc/Solely on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/solelycleanfood/Solely on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/solelyfruit/Solely on X - https://x.com/solelyfruitSolely on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@solelyfruit…Brands for a Better World Episode Archive - http://brandsforabetterworld.com/Brands for a Better World on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/brand-for-a-better-world/Modern Species - https://modernspecies.com/Modern Species on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/modern-species/Gage Mitchell on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gagemitchell/…Print Magazine Design Podcasts - https://www.printmag.com/categories/printcast/…Heritage Radio Network - https://heritageradionetwork.org/Heritage Radio Network on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/heritage-radio-network/posts/Heritage Radio Network on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/HeritageRadioNetworkHeritage Radio Network on X - https://x.com/Heritage_RadioHeritage Radio Network on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/heritage_radio/Heritage Radio Network on Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@heritage_radioChapters:03:00 Introduction to Soli and Its Mission06:00 Revolutionizing Fruit Snacks: The Soli Approach09:03 Challenges of Using Real Fruit in Production11:59 The Importance of Organic Sourcing14:54 Understanding the Complexity of Food Production18:05 The Role of Waste in Food Systems20:57 Building Relationships with Farmers24:02 Soli's Commitment to Sustainability and Health34:09 Supporting Farmers Through Sustainable Practices38:47 Innovative Manufacturing for Healthy Products46:51 Future Growth and Product Innovation52:41 Advice for Aspiring Food Entrepreneurs56:40 Personal Insights and Reflections62:19 Creating a Better World Through Aligned IncentivesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Nestled along Mexico's Pacific coast, David Leventhal's Playa Viva is redefining hospitality through a radical commitment to regenerative design. More than just a boutique hotel, it's a living ecosystem where architecture breathes, nature flows freely, and every material tells a story of sustainability.Imagine waking in a treehouse suspended among palm trees, with no doors or windows—just an uninterrupted connection to the landscape. This is Leventhal's vision: hospitality that doesn't just minimize environmental impact, but actively regenerates it.The resort's structures are poetry in natural materials. Bamboo "bones" form parabolic roofs, carefully woven and raised by hand. Shower floors become canvases of meticulously placed pebbles, each stone positioned with artisan precision. Wall pigments are sourced locally—rich oranges and browns extracted directly from mountain landscapes, mixed with unconventional ingredients like hay, horse manure, and even turtle eggshells."We're not just building rooms," Leventhal explains, "we're creating experiences that transform how humans interact with environment."This transformation begins with radical design choices. Solar panels provide 100% off-grid electricity. Air conditioning is minimised, with innovative systems like the "Evening Breeze" technology cooling only specific areas. The goal isn't comfort through separation, but comfort through connection.The resort sits on 200 acres of regenerating landscape, including a critical turtle sanctuary. Local community members—many former poachers—now protect endangered turtle species, releasing hatchlings at dawn under careful supervision.The broader ReSiMar project demonstrates Leventhal's systemic approach to ecological restoration. Starting from mountain headwaters and extending to the coastline, this watershed regeneration initiative has already documented remarkable recoveries, including recent jaguar sightings in the Sierra Madre Mountains.What makes Playa Viva revolutionary isn't just its sustainable infrastructure, but its philosophical approach. Each design decision emerges from deep respect for place—understanding geological, anthropological, and ecological histories before a single structure is built.Guests aren't passive observers but active participants in this regenerative narrative. Yoga retreats, farm experiences, and community engagement transform vacationing from consumption to connection. The resort's B-Corp certification and recent Michelin keys underscore its commitment to excellence through ecological integrity.Leventhal's background in media and technology might seem an unlikely pathway to ecological design. Yet his journey reveals how personal transformation drives systemic change. "Change happens little by little," he reflects, "until it happens all at once."This philosophy permeates every aspect of Playa Viva. The manta ray-inspired treehouses, the infinity casita with its locally sourced manufactured wood, the organic farm—each element represents a deliberate choice to work with, not against, natural systems.For travellers seeking more than a temporary escape, Playa Viva offers a glimpse of possible futures. Here, luxury isn't about isolation and excess, but about deep, meaningful engagement with living landscapes.As climate challenges intensify, Leventhal's model provides a compelling blueprint. Regenerative design isn't a luxury—it's a necessity. By reimagining hospitality as a collaborative dance with ecological systems, Playa Viva demonstrates that sustainable travel can be both profoundly beautiful and transformative.The resort whispers an essential truth: humans aren't separate from nature, but integral participants in complex, interconnected living systems. And in that understanding lies our most profound opportunity for healing—one treehouse, one turtle, one thoughtfully placed pebble at a time.https://www.playaviva.comhttps://oceanfdn.org/projects/la-tortuga-viva/Have a listen to the podcast we did with Louis Thompson, partner of Nomadic Resorts mentioned by David.

In Episode 334, Kestrel welcomes Emily Mikhaiel, the cofounder and creative director of Nazeerah, to the show. A clothing brand inspired by the legacy of her grandmother, Nazeerah supports organic and regenerative farming practices to honor Egyptian cotton, and produces locally in Egypt to maintain direct relationships with their suppliers and reduce their carbon footprint. “There really wasn't waste while my father was growing up. Everything was either composted or if it was metal, it was recycled or reused or repurposed. If a garment was no longer wearable, they'd cut it up into strips and weave carpets out of it. And once the carpet was no longer usable, they'd cut it up again and compost it. So using that knowledge and thinking, you know, as a society, we've existed without plastics for millennia. Why can't we return to that and draw inspiration from that in our design?” -Emily SEPTEMBER THEME —WHEN *REGENERATIVE* MEANS SO MUCH MORE THAN JUST A BUZZWORD This week's episode is focused largely on a regenerative approach to making clothes – one that includes thinking about the end of life of the garment at the design process, where organic cotton farming is centered, not only to help maintain soil health, but also to enhance biodiversity and restore carbon to the soil, and where local production is prioritized. Without sounding like a broken record, it's important to acknowledge how this word – regenerative – has undoubtedly become another buzzword that's taken fashion by storm. We've seen countless brands integrate it into their marketing messaging, and it's becoming more and more utilized across the space as the “new way” to talk about building a more sustainable brand.  HOWEVER – it's very key to note that regenerative is by no means a new concept. As we've touched on in past episodes, it is rooted in Indigenous knowledge, in traditional ways of farming and ancestral ways of growing plants and being in conversion with the Earth. This week's guest has deep family ties to cotton and garment making in Egypt. As she shares with us, Egypt has a unique history connected to cotton farming that for generations, was intrinsically linked to the natural rhythms of the Nile River.  Through her brand, she is not only honoring her ancestors' connection to the land, but also supporting farmers who are reclaiming what regenerative cotton farming can look like today.  Nazeerah Website Follow Nazeerah on Instagram

Kat Taylor, Co-founder and Board Chair of Beneficial State Bank and Emma Ractliffe, Chief Investment Officer, World Within, share their innovative approaches to investing in the revitalization of rural enterprises, those central to the regenerative revolution underway.

Regenerative agriculture isn't new. To quote today's guest, it's an “exciting old thing.” Yet in the modern world, this ancient, innate wisdom often feels forgotten, and the consequences show up in our food system, in our health, and in the climate. At its core, the challenge isn't just about farming practices, it's about how we see ourselves in relation to the land.In this episode, Monica sits down with journalist and author Kelsey Timmerman to explore what it means to belong to a place rather than own it. From Hawaiian teachings about belonging to a river to the idea that each of us carries with us a heart of the world, Kelsey invites us to rethink our connection to the Earth.Together, we dive into the paradox of hope in the face of devastation, why the people most connected to the land often carry the most optimism, and how agency and reverence can help us meet the urgent challenges of climate change.Show NotesAbout Kelsey TimmermanRegenerating Earth: Farmers Working with Nature to Feed Our Future by Kelsey TimmermanWhere Am I Eating?

The Inner Image: How Your Self-Perception Creates Your RealityHello friend,Have you ever wondered why two people can experience the same situation so differently? Or why some seem to attract abundance while others struggle despite similar efforts?"The inner image shapes the outer world. What we truly believe about ourselves is everything."This truth has been whispering to us through the ages, though we've often been too distracted to hear it. The reality we experience isn't happening to us—it's unfolding through us.The universe responds not to what we say we want, but to who we believe ourselves to be.And a our belief that we are open to receive.Think about an area in your life where you feel stuck.

Keith Bearden is the CEO of Alter Eco, a sustainable chocolate company. Under his direction, Alter Eco isn't just delivering delicious chocolate and granola; it's doing so with a mission that aligns perfectly with people who are looking for better options. Keith's initiatives in regenerative farming and sustainable packaging are reaching a broad audience. Alter Eco does more than purchase from growers, they provide the plants and encourage regenerative practices, which has made a huge difference in the quality of product AND the region, as we just discussed last week with greening cities, the biodiversity makes such a difference! The trees provide some shade from the intense sun, and the lower plants keep the ground more moist for the trees - it's a beautiful symbiotic relationship where everyone benefits.Keith is very proud of the company, and talks openly about the work they do. I grabbed this from their annual Regen Report for 2024: "Regenerative agriculture has been and will continue to be a major focus for us. Our goal is to source 100% of our cacao beans and oats from farms practicing regenerative agriculture and we won't stop until we get there.

In this sixth episode of the 2025 Global Leadership Summit Recap Series on Stories from the River, CEO Charlie Malouf is joined by Will Luke, Senior Director of Project Management, to recap insights from Dr. James Hewitt's Global Leadership Summit keynote on regenerative performance.  Dr. Hewitt, a former world-class cyclist turned human performance scientist, shared his journey from relentless “go, go, go” living to understanding the necessity of pausing and reflecting, especially after surviving cancer. The discussion introduces the concept of “cognitive gears,” a metaphor for the varying levels of mental focus and energy: low (rest and simple tasks), middle (emails and meetings), and high (deep, priority-driven work). Most workers get caught in the “middle gear” — a cycle of distractions and meetings — which can lead to burnout and inefficiency. Charlie and Will explore Dr. Hewitt's practical strategies, like batching emails, rethinking meeting culture, leveraging AI for smarter workflows, and recognizing the value of rest and breaks, not just as luxuries, but as critical tools for sustainability and peak performance. They emphasize aligning work with one's natural circadian rhythms and highlight the power of quality sleep and strategic downtime for creativity and long-term effectiveness. The episode closes with a call for leaders to model regenerative practices, acknowledging that when Memory Makers are encouraged to replenish their mental and physical capacity, it has a ripple effect throughout the organization, boosting both wellbeing and performance.

"The more micro narratives change, the more the bigger narrative will change."The Magic That's Already Here"Regenerative" has become another word we toss around without really feeling into what it means. Leon Bucher -Holistic Management Practitioner and consultant- invites us to slow down and look more closely—why do most regenerative projects fail, and what actually creates the kind of change that lasts?Here's what we discovered together: You can't have regenerative farms without regenerative farmers, regenerative communities, and daily practices that bring joy back into the work of living.This Conversation is Brought to You by Late Bloomer RanchIf you want to be part of this shift toward something brighter, this is your invitation.

This past month we took a look at the timely topic of agritourism and the potential for farms to serve as community and educational centers. This summer we saw a lot of protests against mass tourism and the effects that it's having on tourist centers like Barcelona near where I live. The antidote to this is something that we debate in past episodes I've done on the developing series on regenerative tourism and in this panel session, we'll take a look at it from a farm perspective.  In this session I speak to three people who either have integrated farm visits and agrotoursim as a significant part of their farm enterprise, or are working to empower farmers to integrate tourism and commuinity events into their operation.  I was lucky enough to get three fantastic guests who I happen to know personally and exemplify some of the best in entrepreneurial tenacity, creativity, and experience.

On this episode, we're talking with Isabel Washington, the founder of Laurel's, a rapidly growing ready-to-drink coffee brand powered by regenerative A2 dairy. We dive into Isabel's personal journey discovering A2 milk, how it transformed her relationship with dairy, and why it became the cornerstone of her brand. You'll hear how she spotted a massive gap in the RTD coffee aisle — where 90% of products were non-dairy — and why she designed Laurel's first three SKUs to reflect what people actually order at real coffee shops. Isabel also pulls back the curtain on the scrappy, behind-the-scenes grind of building a CPG brand from scratch — from tying up all her money in the first production run to grinding through 40 demos in 50 days at Erewhon. And we talk about the bigger picture — how content, culture, and motivated moms will determine the future of regenerative food and beverage. Episode Highlights:

Naysayers suggest that organic, regenerative farming is impractical, expensive, and less productive than conventional farming methods. Farmer Bob Quinn has been at it for over 40 years and he is convinced that not only is organic and regenerative farming is possible, it produces greater yields and can be more profitable. He tells numerous stories today from his own experience and from the farmers he's mentored over the years. He highlights how regenerative agriculture is a better way to farm, producing food that is better to eat. He talks about trends in farming, and his "four main pillars for turning food into medicine".

What if your dream life wasn't a weekend escape, but a daily, co-created reality rooted in purpose, belonging, and regeneration? In this episode of Healthy Waves, host Avik Chakraborty dives into a transformative conversation with Marat Omarov — visionary founder of The Ark, a regenerative village in Costa Rica. From leading Kazakhstan's Expo 2017 to walking away from high-profile success for deeper purpose, Marat shares the emotional, mental, and economic reinvention that birthed a thriving post-capitalist community. Together, they explore why the current model of capitalism is failing us, how regenerative frameworks can restore harmony, and why shared ownership is more than an economic tool — it's a way of life. This episode challenges us to rethink how we live, build, and connect. Tune in if you're curious about intentional communities, sustainable living, and how to align your inner purpose with outer impact. About the Guest:Marat Omarov is the founder of The Ark, a regenerative village in Costa Rica that blends ecological design, conscious capitalism, and deep community values. Formerly recognized by the President of Kazakhstan for leading Expo 2017, Marat left the high-performance world to build a future-focused model rooted in connection, contribution, and purpose-driven living. Key Takeaways : Reinvention Requires Unlearning: Marat shares how leaving a globally celebrated career took years of deep emotional work, including therapy, to deprogram societal, Soviet-era, and capitalist conditioning. True Regeneration Starts Internally: Building The Ark wasn't just about infrastructure—it was about shedding old identities and creating space for conscious, integrated living. Disconnect to Reconnect: Marat emphasizes the need for digital and social disconnection to rediscover personal purpose, urging listeners to spend meaningful time in nature and with purpose-led communities. Capitalism's Veil is Falling: The current economic system prioritizes profit over people and planet. Regenerative living offers an inclusive alternative that values contribution, stewardship, and shared prosperity. Open-Gated, Not Closed-Off: The Ark isn't a gated elite enclave—it's a living example of accessible regenerative living that includes Costa Rican families, community elders, and local partnerships. A Call to Action: Even if you're not ready to move to a regenerative village, the episode invites you to rethink your daily life—your community, schedule, and   Connect with the Guest:Website: https://theark.worldInstagram: https://instagram.com/theark.worldAttend online gatherings or visit The Ark in Costa Rica to experience regenerative living firsthand.
