I learned a lot and enjoyed meeting Abdal, plus Nadeem and I stayed in touch. When <a href=\"https://joshuaspodek.com/guests/janet-allaker\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Janet Allaker</a>'s first episode with a listener went well, I invited Nadeem to be a guest.

Nadeem cares enough to act, though not as much as me. He listens to&nbsp;<em>This Sustainable</em> to ground him and inspire more sustainability work. We talk about what motivates him, religion, family, Norway, and of course do the Spodek Method.</p><p>I think you'll find some similarities and differences in his approach and stick with the podcast.</p>","author_name":"Joshua Spodek: Author, Speaker, Professor"}
