Episode 33 – Guardianship

Today we visit Little Juniper Distilling in the Australian state of South Australia, to speak with founder Stuart Mackenzie

Stuart’s plan and passion for creating a distillery had been a long-term goal, one that remained latent for some time

Given Stuart’s successful career spanning the computer game industry, visual effects for Hollywood movies, marketing, advertising, and web design, this was an offbeat counterpoint in many ways.

And yet, as you will discover today, there was a sense of inevitability that a change was brewing. The first trigger was establishing an independent design business, but it was Stuart’s response to COVID-19 that catalysed his focus on sustainability and Little Juniper.
