Harnessing restorative business to heal the world, with author & journalist Esha Chhabra

Send us a textEsha Chhabra is a journalist who covers sustainability, development, women's issues & mission-driven brands, writing for The Guardian, The New York Times, Economist, Wired, Fast Company & Forbes & awarded 4 grants from the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting. Esha is also the author of Working to Restore, harnessing the power of ‘feel good, do good’ enterprises & regenerative business, to restore & heal the world. They are going above and beyond what we call sustainability, which is a term that leaders have become frustrated with. What are we sustaining? This is a broken system. So are we trying to sustain the status quo? It’s not got us to where we need to be so people were looking for something more effective. Some forward-looking leaders picked up on the regenerative approach and began to disrupt their own work design approaches and instead embrace this more developmental, restorative eco-system within their organisations. Esha explains that this approach is about - restoring the imbalance that’s been created in society, whether it’s social and environmental - regenerating or breathing new life into old ways that are no longer working - bringing about a different iteration that works with the greater good for humans and the planet.When we choose to keep ourselves informed, if we look through the lens of where the solutions are happening then we don’t paralyse ourselves with fear. Instead we feel hopeful and optimistic and in that state of openness, we are able to be more creative and innovative in our own approaches to the way we live and work within the context of the planet’s living systems. We can choose to be part of what works for the whole, and play our part within that. You can find out more about Esha’s work on https://www.eshachhabra.com/And follow her on Linkedin @eshachhabraJoin Lou on LinkedinFollow her @brave_newgirl on Instagram and get her books Brave New Girl- How to be Fearless, FEAR LESS and her Internationally Bestselling book DARE TO SHARE on Amazon or Waterstones or Barnes & Noble.
