The Gathering
Brought to you by The Growth Collective.
This is a podcast for curious people who want to learn and take inspiration from some of the most fascinating individuals on the planet.
Think of it as a Collective forum. A space to explore ideas, skills and stories that help people. It started with learning. It can grow into whatever the Collective needs next.
You’ll learn from a range of facilitators, practitioners and people with lived experience. We keep the chat practical and human.
New episode each month, leaving you with practical ideas you can use straight away, and stories that will stay with you for years.
Guests include specialists from different fields. Sometimes artists. Sometimes policy folks. Sometimes the person doing the tough work on the ground.
You’ll hear about:
· Treating nature as a real stakeholder with a voice at the table
· Failure, dissected. Turning mistakes into better systems
· Art and music as practical levers for climate action
· Personal growth that lifts whole-team performance
· Small wellbeing habits that compound into real confidence
And much more!
Every episode links action to outcomes, for people and for nature.
