EP 6: Tackling the Climate Crisis with Purpose – Josiah Lockhart

The Luminate Collective

Welcome to The Luminate Collective Podcast, brought to you by AAB Consulting, hosted by Sian Parker. In this series, we capture candid conversations on life, change, leadership, and the world of business.

Beyond their titles, our guests share their life stories, discussing the personal and vulnerable experiences that have contributed to their success.

In this episode, Sian chats to Josiah Lockhart, Chief Executive of Changeworks, Scotland’s leading environmental charity delivering energy efficiency and low carbon solutions.

Josiah is leading on the delivery of Changeworks’ strategy for 2022-2025, as the organisation refocuses its work towards one goal: decarbonising Scotland’s homes.

In this conversation, we chat about Josiah’s ‘bookmark moment’ where his early career aspirations in the entertainment industry took an unexpected turn leading him down a path of self-discovery and social entrepreneurship.

He shares candid insights into a hugely pivotal moment where he experienced a life-altering bicycle accident and how that recovery shaped a new perspective on life, career and the urgency of societal issues.

Josiah’s experience advising and leading social enterprises and working with social entrepreneurs is second to none, to hear the lessons Josiah has learned the hard way and the advice he would give to a new social enterprise wanting to make an impact, keep listening.
