    2024/07/01
    In celebration of 200 episodes of Conversation of Inspiration, this special episode tackles some of the greatest challenges faced by our society today.

    Set against the backdrop of political fever as the general election looms, Holly explores what the future could look like, if the most brilliant minds and founders were spearheading the policies of our country — those who truly are experts, those who have actually ‘walked the walk’. How would they reshape our world with their boundless creativity, limitless common sense and a relentless drive for improvement?

    From reimagining the education system or creating a plan to save our high streets, to an alternative vision for social media or tackling climate change, this episode covers some of society's real challenges, and crucially, how we might overcome them.

    With ideas from Dame Anya Hindmarch, Sir Tim Smit and Mo Gawdat to name just a few, and with two heartfelt letters (prepare with tissues!), this is a very special episode not to be missed.
