We keep hearing that people won’t take action on sustainability because it means sacrifice. But is that actually true - or just an outdated story we’ve been telling ourselves?
In this episode, I’m unpacking the myth of sustainability as deprivation, and exploring how flipping the narrative can unlock real behaviour change.
I’ll walk you through how simple reframing can shift people from overwhelm to action, why most of us aren’t being asked to give up as much as we think, and how psychology plays a huge role in how we respond to climate messaging.
If you’ve ever wondered why some people get stuck at “what’s the point?” - this one’s for you.
