In this episode I met with Allan Whatmore, the founder of a sustainable goods online store in Australia, and new first-time father. We dove deep into the simplicity and responsibility of our actions in everyday life and how we can live better lives that impact the world positively.
Everything Allan does is with intent, purpose and kindness. He lives and breathes the truism that we are always evolving and it’s our responsibility to pass that onto the next generation.
Here’s a summary of what we discussed:
07:50 - Allan’s background and the start of Banjula
10:53 - the different types of brands they sell
15:51 - understanding our impact on others
24:44 - the value of getting the feedback
37:50 - how businesses can become more sustainable
46:00 - how education plays a role
49:07 - the need for businesses to become community minded
and much more…
Enjoy!
