Seeds Podcast is about telling good stories


… and catalysing impact by planting seeds in the minds of listeners.

I view each conversation as being like a seed. With the right conditions, each life story will inspire growth for the listener.

By listening to someone’s full life story, we can learn from them, and new things can be planted and begin to grow.

Now with more than 383 episodes.

Stay curious.

Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap, but by the seeds that you plant.

Robert Louis Stevenson

Ki te mea ka taka te kākano ki te wāhi e tika ana ka tinaku, ā, ka pihi ake he tipu hou.
If a seed falls in the right place, it will germinate and a new seedling will sprout.
