Transactional Analysis Podcast (TAP)’s Post

Do you speak Sustainability? It can be a complicated language. One that is evolving all the time. Some of us are fluent.  Most of us are not. That’s an issue. If we are going to change anything we all need to be speaking and understanding the same language. Scientists. Academics, Researchers tend to be very good at speaking Sustainability. What they are saying is urgent and important. But it needs translating. That’s the job of those of us working in climate communications. Not just to ‘tell stories’ but to translate them into language we can all understand. It’s a point well made by Paul Goodenough on this week’s Outrage + Optimism podcast. Well worth a listen. Creatives as translators.  Does that resonate with you? #ClimateCommunications #ClimateConsciousCreativity #Sustainability

Regenerate, how? In my research for more regenerative NGO and donor experiments and practices, I came across various other concepts and perspectives. Emergence, transformation, imagination, decoloniality, ancestral (and indigenous) practices,... With particularities, they all have in common the questioning of the current (post-)colonial, capitalist and patriarchal system. They also agree that there is no ‘single recipe’ or ‘manual’ for how to do (and be) different - manuals and recipes come precisely from the way of being they seek to combat. We are in an ‘interregnum’ or ‘sociotone’ as May East puts it, living between two or more worlds, not in a vacuum, but with various antagonistic forces. We need to experiment-erro-experiment and live within uncertainty, its tensions and paradoxes. I highly recommend the podcast below, in which Vanessa Andreotti provides context, concepts and theoretical frameworks that can help us on this journey: https://lnkd.in/dMhDVMGR

I have been listening to Outrage & Optimism podcast from the beginning. I would like to share this episode with you, which showcases another great podcast called Rewilding.

This week’s guest on the For Love & Money Podcast is an environmental engineer. Tim Stubbs is Director of WolfPeak , a strategy and environment consultancy that was set up to build a profitable business doing work they believe in – to do good. The theme of this episode is “Starting Point.” Tim challenges the traditional approach of prioritising business and economic growth, which often forces environmental and human considerations to fit around these priorities. Instead, he invites us to consider an alternate perspective: understanding the constraints of human beings and the environment as the natural starting points and then asking how business can fit into that. How would our behaviours and actions change if these were our starting points? I found this conversation with Tim to be thought-provoking, drawing on his diverse knowledge sources. I’d love to know if it opens new perspectives for you as it did for me.
