  • Fight for Better
    Oct 5 2023

    Today I'm talking with Annie Bevan, sustainability collaborator, facilitator, visionary, and changemaker. She's an Impact Icon, CEO of mindful MATERIALS, founder and CEO of SMSC, and global head of sustainability for Superior Essex, but most importantly what I have come to appreciate and love the most is she's a good human being.

    Her desire and drive to fight for better for those and what she cares about is unmatched. Our conversation gives you a little insight into the woman behind the work. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.

  • Fearless Difference Making
    Oct 4 2023

    Bonnie Sharphouse is an independent sustainability consultant with more than fifteen years of experience in corporate sustainability strategy, program design, management systems, and reporting for the manufacturing, chemical, CPG, energy, and pharmaceutical sectors. 

    Whether Bonnie knows it or not, she and I are good friends. I can't tell you the last time I enjoyed a conversation more, Bonnie and I had literally just met when we recorded together. I'm enamored with her, with her approach to her work and her ability to articulate why she does the work that she does - and how she can see so clearly the impact she has and wants to have on the world.

    She is so refreshing. She's such a light. I hope you enjoyed this conversation as much as I did.

  • Mr. Lucky
    Oct 4 2023

    Mr. Lucky might sound like a funny title for a conversation with Gabe Wing, but you'll soon see why it's the perfect title.

    MillerKnoll says Gabe has fundamentally reimagined the way their products are designed. And even though Gabe does this work day in and day out, I still get the impression he's pinching himself from his rough start in chemical engineering (....seriously, he hated it), to stepping into Miller's sustainable legacy. You can feel the love this man has for what he does and who he does it with.

    What's luckier than that?
