  • Untangling grief with Emily Cummin
    May 30 2023

    Death is an inherent part of life. But when we are confronted to it, it seems like we are never quite prepared.

    In the UK, there are a hundred thousand monthtly searches on Google for "what do I do when someone dies?"

    With a background in tech and having experienced grief herself, Emily Cummin has created a solution to support people through the emotional and practical challenges that come with a bereavement.

    This solution is Untangle. It is an app, a resource, a safe space, and a community.

    In this episode, we talk to Emily Cummin about the development of Untangle - a life saving app.

    In our very first 3 way conversation on The Inspirer Podcast we take a deep dive into the wonderful organisation Bow Seat

    To put it simply Bow Seat is an organisation that holds an annual youth art contest to promote ocean conservation. But in reality Bow Seat is so much more than that! 

    Reaching almost 30,000 teenagers from around the world, Bow Seat brings youth together to learn, create and connect on the subject of climate change and ocean conservation. 

    Their “Future Blue Youth Council”, composed of past contestants, supports alumns of the contest in their water conservation projects through their fellowship grant program. 

    Today they have an impressive archive of powerful art that they showcase through their online gallery and in person shows. This incredible ressource carries the voices of thousands of teenagers who speak out for ocean conservation.

  • Fighting Human Trafficking with Rasha Hammad from Youth Underground
    Apr 26 2023

    Youth Underground is an organisation that prevents human trafficking through youth education. Young people are the ones who are the most at risk of human trafficking. This is why Rasha Hammad, the founder of Youth Underground, chose to put youth and their voices at the center of Youth Underground.

    The young people that she works with are the ones who have made the organisation what it is today. It is through the hard conversations, the education and the awareness building that no voice is left unheard and no one is left behind.

    Speaking with Rasha in this episode we discuss many subjects that are seen and considered as taboo. She debunks the subject of human trafficking, breaks the stigma and opens the doors for the truth. She is a brave advocate and compassionate educator.
