Values & the Inner Development Goals (IDGs)

In this episode 10 of Millennials Gone Circular, we’re slowing down a bit to explore a different kind of transformation: the one that starts within ourselves!

Join co-hosts Caitlyn, Angelica and Said as they get stuck into:

• What values are, why they matter and how they shape our worldviews, behaviours and sustainability actions

• The concept of value priming and how messaging impacts what we care about

• The Inner Development Goals (IDGs), a framework of 23 research-backed inner skills like empathy, courage and active listening that help us create outer impact

• How developing these inner capacities is crucial for tackling global challenges like climate change, inequality and circular transitions

Expect personal reflections, practical tips, a few laughs and a reminder that whilst circularity is about systems, it’s also about us, too.

If you’re a changemaker, community leader or a curious human trying to make better choices, this episode offers insights to help you lead with values and grow from the inside out.
