Regen On Purpose
Regen on Purpose is a podcast for leaders who sense that sustainability alone isn’t enough.
Hosted by Karen Gray, the podcast explores what it really takes to move from sustainability to regeneration designing and delivering systems that become healthier over time.
Drawing on three decades of experience in delivery leadership, people development, and transformation, each episode looks at why change often struggles to hold, and how leadership decisions, delivery choices, and learning environments shape long-term outcomes.
This is a space for thoughtful conversations about building what lasts for people, organisations, and the planet without hype, jargon, or quick fixes.
Regen On Purpose
Episode 1 - From Sustainability To Regeneration
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Sustainability has helped organisations reduce harm, improve efficiency, and bring ESG and responsibility into leadership conversations.
But even when sustainability programmes are delivered well, lasting change doesn’t always follow.
In this opening episode of Green On Purpose, Karen Gray explores why sustainability initiatives can still feel fragile — why change doesn’t always stick, teams feel fatigued, and the same challenges return in different forms.
The episode introduces regeneration as a practical leadership and systems-thinking lens, examining how organisations can move beyond reducing harm to building healthier, more resilient systems over time.
Using real-world examples from retail, local government, and finance, this episode looks at how regenerative thinking reshapes decisions, strengthens long-term value, and supports transformation that endures beyond go-live.
This episode is ideal for leaders working in sustainability, ESG, transformation, organisational change, and systems leadership who are ready to explore what comes after sustainability.
