Description

Redesigning how to travel, build community, and lead change - from certification checklists over inner development to #impactpreneurship [🔔 Announcement: from September, THE SOCIAL REGENERATION PODCAST 🎀 moves to a bi-weekly rhythm 🎵] One reason: We are making space to launch a larger programme for #impactpreneurs who want to solidify their impact project idea - starting in October ✨😍 [👀 First Sneak Peek here 🤫] Meet my new business partner, Anastasiia “Asya” Korshunova - sustainability professional, sustainable tourism auditor, community builder, and certified mindfulness guide. In this Episode, Asya traces her path from hotel management studies to discovering sustainability, completing a Master’s in sustainability management, and choosing auditing for its concrete, operational levers to implement small changes on a daily basis. She explains how certifications can drive learning and continuous improvement and reframes travel through the mindset of pilgrimage - moving from extraction and photo-checklists to humility and respect. Asya also explains why she moved into mindfulness and coaching: we talk a lot about Doing in sustainability but rarely about Being - the inner capacities leaders must cultivate. We also share how our collaboration began earlier this year, how we co-created a new brand within the last 3 Months only, and how we ran two workshops without ever meeting in person, and why this values-alignment felt like a perfect “partnership at first sight.” If you want to hear what the big programme is about that we are currently co-creating, listen in! 🎧 It is all about embracing your identity as #impactpreneur. 💗 We accompany you on your journey, bringing Your Impact Project to Life! 🚀 💡 HIGHLIGHTS of this Episode ✨ Tourism without extraction? We debate whether “sustainable tourism” is possible — and how the mindset of pilgrimage can pave the path for regeneration ✨ Sustainability Audits decoded. Asya shares honest insights into the pros and cons of the certification process and the work as an auditor ✨ From Kyrgyz mountains to Kazakh deserts: why early actions & standards can prevent a slide into mass tourism ✨ Inner > outer. We name the blind spot in sustainability work: neglecting the inner capacities that keep changemakers healthy and effective, and how coaching fills that gap ✨ #impactpreneurship: About both our journeys as Social Impact Founders and glimpses into our New Program - the YIP LAB! 👋 ABOUT Asya Korshunova (she/her) After working in the field of sustainability for over 5 years, her passion for creating something meaningful on her own led her to start ASEYA, a space of connection and growth for professionals working and inspired by sustainability and personal development.
