Om Podcasten

I'm Sarah Fox and this is Do Good and Do Well, a podcast exploring how we can make a positive contribution without burning out. Whether you describe yourself as a leader, entrepreneur, freelancer, small business owner or anything in between, join me as I talk to people in business, education and the creative industries about how we can lean into our pro-social values and take care of ourselves in the process. I also share my own observations and experiences as a coach and mentor for changemakers, and there are plenty of tools and tips to help you do good and do well.
