617: Janet Allaker: A long-time listener shares what This Sustainable Life means to her
Janet shared how she found This Sustainable Life, what kept her coming back, the guests she liked, and how it’s affected her. I wish I had recorded episodes with listeners before to learn what you all like, don’t like, and want more or less of.
Listening to it after recording, I consider our conversation one of the most accessible for new listeners. Janet described various aspects of it that I suspect will resonate with many listeners.
One thing that hit me was how the podcast restored her enthusiasm to act. Years ago she acted as much as she could on sustainability, to the point of picking up fruit rinds people had littered to put in compost. She didn’t act for internal reasons but external, so she burned out and stopped acting. Then she found This Sustainable Life and it restored fun to acting. She does it for the joy of it, which keeps her going, gives her energy, not feeling like giving up.
Plus she did the Spodek Method, so you’ll hear what she commits to do more.
If you are a listener and would like to be a guest, contact me and let me know.
