Episode description

Inspired by the teachings of Mahatma Gandi, social reformer, author and Ted Talk speaker Robin Greenfield explains why and how he’s simplified his life - strand by strand - so others can simply live. 

38-year-old Robin was on his way to his first million in his 20s, drove a new car, ran a marketing business in the States and was immersed in consumerism. Now he undertakes extreme experiments and adventures to demonstrate more sustainable ways of living in harmony with the planet and which don’t exploit others around the world. 

He’s just walked 1600 miles from the US/Canadian border to LA with only the basics to survive to inspire people to slow down and take a look at their lives and what we perceive as societal norms. He’s now given away the few possessions he had to do an experiment in non-ownership.
