Send us a textThis week's guest is Anna Murphy, a sustainability consultant specialising in the Future-Fit Business Benchmark. This is a framework that guides the pursuit of a truly sustainable society. She is currently studying an MPA in Public Policy, Public Value and Innovation at UCL.Always passionate about righting the wrongs of the world she travelled to areas where she could help. But realising that there were inherent problems in the aid industry she decided to find out how she could do her bit in her own country.Anna decided to focus her efforts on the climate crisis; educated herself, and got involved in Extinction Rebellion. The backlash was so intense and brutal that she found herself burnt out and questioning how far she needed to go and how much was enough in order to balance social compassion and self-care.After working as a business sustainability consultant and making her own personal changes for the planet she realised that the bigger picture meant policy change, so she started her MA in Public Policy.Anna is adamant that the future looks hopeful if we each take responsibility in our own way, but being an activist is the most effective charge for change.Thank you so much Anna for being a passionate driving force at the forefront of sustainability in business and policy, and for the personal impact you are making for the good of our planet. Thanks also for showing us that we can each make a positive impact towards sustainability by taking small steps and doing what we can, where we can.You can find out more about her work on her blog www.annamurph3.medium.com and follow her on Linkedin @annamurphyJoin Lou on Linkedin, or sign up to her mailing list for her newsletter and a free bite-size short course on how to be a podcast guest.
