From Corporate Sustainability to Local Climate Leadership: Regeneration Starts Where You Are - with Laila JB Martins, Strategist, Trainer, and Facilitator

🎙 Guest: Laila JB MartinsIn this deeply moving conversation, I speak with Laila JB Martins — a Brazilian strategist, facilitator, and regenerative thinker based in Bonn, Germany — about what it means to live and lead in service of the planet, starting right where you are.

Laila shares how her journey from corporate sustainability roles (like DHL and the UN) to local regenerative work has taught her that hope is not something we find — it's something we practice.

🌍 In this episode, Laila reflects on:

* What trees have taught her about grief, resilience, and belonging

* Why understanding ourselves as biological beings shifts everything

* How she blends corporate strategy with grassroots regeneration

* Why being “famous in your city” may be the most powerful climate impact

* The link between chronic pain, planetary health, and interdependence

* Why music, joy, and Brazilian dance songs are tools of hope
