I doubt that this episode will ever be matched in terms of the sheer diversity of experiences we discuss. I’m joined by a former colleague, Justin Vela of the ESG consultancy GEOSTREAMS, to talk about his career.
As you’ll hear, he started freelancing on a major diplomatic incident, later snuck across the Turkish-Syrian border, became uneasy at the geopolitical aims of his employer, and eventually created a firm that helps companies manage their ESG goals. There were a lot of twists and turns for him and we talk about his thinking along the way and what he sees as the current state of freelancing in conflict areas, among other topics.
