Behind the scenes with Brianne, chatting rewilding, sustainable business, lawn culture and a look into my life.
Description
It was my birthday a couple of weeks ago and to celebrate we did things a little differently. Kate, one of the team from Business, but Better joined me and peppered me with millions of questions.
It's a behind the scenes peek at my life, business thoughts and sustainability advice. Kate wouldn't let me leave until she had asked all the questions she wanted.
In this episode we share:
- What the process of rewilding my yard was like at the start
- What is holding kiwis back from developing their lawn into something environmentally supportive
- My tips on how to be sustainable
- The times that she cried over Ethique
- The 3 questions people always ask Kate about Brianne
- The kind of businesses who should contact Insprie
- Why not all mentors work well for all mentees
- How we make social enterprise business the mainstream
- My guilty pleasures that I wouldn’t normally share
Key Quotes
“At the end of the day being sustainable is about doing everything you can with stuff you already own.”
“Not every mentor works for everybody”
“I don’t like the term social enterprise, because I think that that should just be all business.”
