Living Sustainably Is Easier and More Powerful than Ever; with Allan Whatmore

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!

About the Podcast

Mission Activated
Conversations and reflections on living your purpose and leading from alignment
Mission Activated is a podcast about living with purpose and leading from alignment.
Hosted by Aveline Clarke, founder of 6 Star Leaders, the show moves between two kinds of episodes: conversations with people doing meaningful work in their own way, and solo reflections drawn from her work coaching conscious leaders through what gets in the way and what's possible on the other side.
This isn't a podcast about hustle, performance, or scale at all costs. It's about the inner work that makes the outer work matter. Self-trust. Clean communication. Owning your part. Becoming someone others can safely navigate by.
If you're tired of leadership content that's loud and shallow, and you're looking for something quieter, more honest, and more useful, this is for you.
New episodes fortnightly. Stay aligned.
