Pick Your Own - with Sonya of Adore Your Outdoors

Season 9 · Episode 8

Thursday, September 11, 2025 • Duration 22:49

What struck ewe most from this episode - and why?

This week our theme is 100% outdoors. And if we'd been geographically closer we absolutely would have recorded it outdoors too!

Our guest in this episode is Sonya Dibbin, who calls herself The Nature Lady on LinkedIn and Nature Nerd in other areas :-)

Like Raising the Baa, Sonya is passionate about bringing people into nature, hence her beautifully named business Adore Your Outdoors.

From an extensive career in IT, you will hear how and why Sonya developed into a trainer of forest bathing, ecoNIDRA (yoga fans will get this immediately), workplace resilience and wellbeing.

With her growing tribe of certified forest bathing guides across the country, we are really excited to have Adore Your Outdoors as one of our Pick Your Own partners.

----------------------------------

Whilst hundreds of companies have brought their teams to a farm to herd sheep with us at Raising the Baa, we know that the field-based exercises are not for everyone.

So we've raised our own 'baa' and created Pick Your Own. A bespoke collection of sustainable and meaningful activities to bring teams together in the countryside - just perfect for everyone's wellbeing.

Thank ewe for tuning in :-)

Pick Your Own - with Emma of Emma Kirkham Glass

Season 9 · Episode 7

Thursday, September 4, 2025 • Duration 20:40

What struck ewe most from this episode - and why?

Today's guest is the hugely talented Emma Kirkham who wears two hats - a career as a glass artist as well as a wonderfully empathic HeartHealer.

As with Vanessa our last guest, Emma rather fell into artistry with glass by experimenting at college with some broken glass she found! More of which Emma explains in our conversation.

Find out also exactly what happens in one of Emma's glass workshops which we're delighted to know can take place on the farm alongside our signature sheep-herding activity.

Workplace Wellness - with Sally Tanski & Shahani Jayesinghe of Talogy

Season 8 · Episode 1

Wednesday, June 28, 2023 • Duration 31:17

What struck ewe most from this episode - and why?

In this first episode of our new season we're delighted to welcome not one but two guests.

Both are consultants at Talogy, which combines psychology and technology to help organisations such as M&S and BBC to develop their talent.

Business psychologists Sally Tanski and Shahani Jayesinghe have extensive experience of guiding companies and coaching their people for optimum performance and well-being.

We discuss:

* How individuality matters. For sheep too - yes really 🐑
* Self-awareness and taking accountability for your own wellness
* The need for companies to create the right conditions and initiatives
* Interrupting behaviour patterns through intuition - being adaptive
* Subtle influencing through leading by example

And we hear some great examples of low and no-cost initiatives from Talogy themselves, including the delightfully entitled 'random rendezvous'.

As you would expect, Head Shepherd and co-founder of Raising the Baa chimes in with analogies from the world of sheep and sheep-dogs - bringing some surprising insights to Sally and Shahani!

See links below for free access to Talogy's insightful recent article and webinar on the theme of Social Capital, as discussed in this episode.

And here's Shahani's book recommendation: Atomic Habits by James Clear Questions? We love 'em! Simply message us through any of our social channels or email and we'll ensure it is answered in a future episode or privately by one of our guest experts whichever is most suitable.Enjoy - and thank ewe for listening 😊🎧FREE resources: written by Sally and Shahani presented by ShahaniConnect with the speakers via LinkedIn: - Managing Consultant, Talogy - Principal Consultant, Talogy - Top Dog and co-founder, Raising the Baa - Head Shepherd and co-founder, Raising the Baa
