Collaborative projects are rare.
Collaborative creative projects are even rarer. Never mind those that combine the written word with compelling visuals.
But this is what this magazine precisely is:
A collaborative creative project exploring three fundamental questions in the sustainability space.
- How does ‘creating change’ feel from within?
- What does it mean to swim against the business mainstream because genuinely the status quo does not work?
- Where and how does courage come into play? What does it mean in the current global context?
With these questions at the heart, ‘Stepping into your courage’, a collaborative magazine about creating sustainable change, presents on the one hand interviews with unique businesses that have taken years and a lot of courage, nerves and commitment to build; and on the other allows practitioners in the sustainability space to explore their experiences and motivations to ‘keep going’.
Particularly insightful and unique are the views from the personalities interviewed about how they use their business as a way of creating and implementing change. From different business models to new ways of working with communities and the land:
If you’re really going to be sustainable,
Vincent Stanley from Patagonia
you have to be regenerative.
In the end, change does not come from the sky,
Eric Garnier from Choba Choba
but it comes from within.
Collaborating, and
Adriana Marina from Hecho x Nosostros and Animaná
taking the values of nature to heart,
makes a difference.
You know when the time is right, and
Fergal Smith from the Moy Hill Farm
it’s not just about a good idea.
It’s the people who know why the world needs change and drive that shift with their heart,
Andy Middleton from the TYF Group
head and hands connected who make the best things happen.
These interviews track these individuals’ personal journey and professional journey: difficult decisions taken, fears experiences, vision and intent with their business, and how they kept going over the years.
