Ep #14 Founder Of THIS: 'It Started As A Business Opportunity. Now I'm So Obsessed With The Mission That I Sought Therapy' With Andy Shovel

Andy Shovel, the founder of the vegan meat company THIS, knew he wanted to be an entrepreneur since he was 18 years old. He didn't pay much attention to studying and started his first business while still at university. Being a successful entrepreneur seemed to be the ultimate fulfillment… until one day he discovered something Greater Than His Business. THIS started as a 'great business opportunity,' and Andy didn't expect that animal welfare would become his life mission. A mission so unbelievably strong that now it distracts him from day-to-day work and leads him to start therapy. Join Andy and me in this vulnerable and inspiring conversation where he shares his beliefs: * Anyone from a privileged background has an obligation to give back. * Having a mission is not as 'rosy' as it may seem. * BUT it transforms one’s life and brings an unprecedented amount of meaning and fulfillment. 00:00 Introduction 04:47 The Evolution of Personal Beliefs and Values 14:56 The Role of Privilege in Personal Success 21:13 The Pursuit of Fulfillment and Purpose 28:10 The Challenges of Being Passionate About a Cause 29:20 Finding Your Cause and Passion 33:08 When To (Not) Judge Others 38:00 The Magnitude of Animal Suffering 41:08 The Transition to a Plant-Based Diet 42:39 The Hypocrisy Argument 46:16 Quality And Values At THIS 51:41 Recommended Resource Resources: * THIS https://this.co/ [https://this.co/] * Andy Shovel’s profile https://www.linkedin.com/in/andy-shovel-92533414/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/andy-shovel-92533414/] * Speach everyone should listen to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQCe4qEexjc [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQCe4qEexjc]

Ep #13 How to LEAVE Corporate Tech Career for CLIMATE? Founder of Women&Climate and Clever Carbon, Michelle Li

Michelle Li had a successful career and loved her work at Salesforce and DocuSign. But somehow, it never felt like enough: "Why would I save for my retirement if I don't know if I will ever be able to retire?" She left in search of her new "climate job" and despite her experience, struggled to find anything. She didn't yet know that she would never need to look for a job again. Since then, Michelle founded Clever Carbon, a company educating people on carbon literacy, whose clients include the NBA (National Basketball Team) and Estée Lauder. She also started the world's fastest-growing community for women in the climate space (Women and Climate), which is followed by 10,000 passionate women and is present in 40 cities globally. Are you scared to make a radical move in your career? Do you want to enter the "climate sector" but don't know where to start? Join me and Michelle, who shares how she learned to bet on herself and follow her values despite the risks. 00:00 Introduction 06:22 Michelle's Vision for a Carbon-Literate World 11:10 Michelle's Personal Journey and Career Shift 13:15 The Impact of Business School and Transition into Tech 18:13 Experience at Salesforce and DocuSign 26:36 The Birth of Clever Carbon 28:18 Personal Journey Towards Sustainability 38:05 Transition from Corporate Job to Clever Carbon 43:30 The Birth and Growth of Women and Climate 46:36 Lessons Learned from Building Communities 49:45 Advice for Climate Advocates 50:34 The Book Everyone Should Read: Sapiens Clever Carbon: https://clevercarbon.io/ [https://clevercarbon.io/] Women and Climate: https://www.womenandclimate.co/ [https://www.womenandclimate.co/] Michelle’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michellelimba/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/michellelimba/] Book everyone should read: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/23692271-sapiens [https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/23692271-sapiens]
