In this episode, Morag Gamble engages in a thought-provoking conversation with Laura Oldanie about the contested intersection of permaculture and money. They explore the redefinition of wealth, the myths surrounding conventional financial systems, and the importance of community and social capital in creating a resilient and abundant life. Laura shares insights on how permaculture principles can guide financial decisions, the concept of 'enoughness', and innovative strategies for investing in regenerative assets.

Since she received her Permaculture Design Certificate in 2009, she's been exploring ways to earn, spend, invest, and manage her money and lifestyle to bring about the change she wants to see in the world – and teaching others to do the same.
