Katrin Häuser, a social and a political entrepreneur, joined us on this new episode of sensecast.

After years of working in the corporate sector and living in multiple countries, she decided to quit everything and rethink her career by focusing on purpose and sustainability.

She co-founded TheGreenSpring, a springboard for sustainable ideas within the impact space that helps companies develop their business, open new sales channels and develop green and sustainable strategies. She is also expanding her impact through her political party, Klimaliste Berlin.

What you will hear in this episode:

Her journey from employee within the corporate world to co-founder of her own sustainability consultancy and political party
How travelling, freelancing and the On Purpose program were part of this journey
Bringing sustainability and business together: the sweet spot for changing the world and moving things forward
The challenge of letting go of the employee mindset
TIP! Setting boundaries and taking time for yourself: a counter-intuitive way to be more productive and bring more value to your work
An example of how TheGreenSpring is helping clients integrate sustainability into their strategy
Katrin’s relationship to the corporate world today

One key takeaway from Katrin’s story:
Just do it! Take the first little step and enjoy the process.
