S2 Ep #8 Sobriety, Climate Change & Decolonisation with Samantha Moyo

In this final episode of season 2 of the Bravehearts Rising podcast, I’m talking to the multi-passionate and incredible Samantha Moyo. She’s a disruption doctor, activist, coach and entrepreneur. 

I had so much fun recording this interview. We started with Sam telling us what led her to start a sober rave movement and went on to discuss unconscious bias, decolonisation and the importance of holding space for fear and vulnerability. Key for me was around climate change and inclusivity - when it comes to saving the planet, who are we saving it for?

This episode is full of nourishing food for thought. Enjoy!

Sobriety, Morning Gloryville and Sam’s journey to becoming a sobriety advocate [2.59]Unconscious bias and decolonisation [15:35]Climate change and diversity [21.16]The importance of speaking your discomfort and the fear of getting it wrong [25.32]Making space for fear and vulnerability [32.00]Practical tips for starting your own disruption mission [36.36]Extinction Rebellion, intersectionality and the need to centre more than climate justice in talks around climate change.
