When negative feedback shakes your confidence, it can be difficult to get back to feeling like yourself at work. In this episode, Anne and Frances help a struggling listener who has spent years toning herself down in the workplace after being told that she was too assertive — now, she feels that her modest approach is holding her back. Together, they use Anne and Frances’s “trust triangle” framework to explore how empathy, authenticity, and logic can help you rebuild confidence and trust with your colleagues, and share helpful confidence hacks for getting comfy with discomfort.

The Grapes of Wrath Grow Heavy: Why Contemporary Notions of Sustainability Are Unsustainable 50:58

“The first rule of sustainability is to align with natural forces, or at least not try to defy them.” – Paul Hawken. - - This unique 'inbetweenisode' is an audible reading of a recent essay I published to my website - honandaniel.com - on the fundamental unsustainability of sustainability, entitled... The Grapes of Wrath Grow Heavy: Why Contemporary Notions of Sustainability Are Unsustainable. "‘Sustainability’ may be the most misused word in the English language. It is a word that many modern day agriculturalists, primary producers, and their various representative groups, organisations, and associations – especially within the world of wine – love to use." - - For those of you who haven't read it - or rather haven't found the time to read it, I thought I would do it for you, and record myself reading the essay in order to make it easier for you to get the information and absorb it while doing other things, like working, driving, etc. If you have any comments and care to discuss my thesis with me, please get in touch via email - hello@fermentingplace.com - or send me a DM either on Instagram or Twitter . - - Peep.

Hailing from the small Caribbean Island of Martinique - the birthplace of Rhum Agricole - Quentin has made a home for himself in Australia, nearby the tiny town of Tumbulgum, on the banks of the Tween River, within the peaceful Northern Rivers region of New South Wales. Sitting outside, over looking the swaying sugarcane that was then ripening in the field, whilst sharing my new favourite drink, Quentin and I shared a very cool conversation about all things Agricole; how Husk became Australia's first agricultural rum distillery, intent on capturing place and their attempts to express the intrinsic terroir of the Tweed, through the unique medium of spirit distillation.

My guest for Episode Twenty-Nine of the Fermenting Place [podcast] is winegrower, reader, observer, Dachshund enjoyer, and all-round thoughtful human being, Tamara Irish of Herrmann Wines, in Dunkeld, Victoria. This is a meandering conversation covering all manner of subjects and topics that intersect and interrelate around the concept of wine. It's as close to a conversation one might have with someone, late at night - as bottles, plates, and trays are empties, while bellies, minds and glasses of wine are filled - except it was conducted online, as opposed to in meatspace. Shame. This is a conversation that went exactly as I expected it to, and yet ended far too soon. Nonetheless, I am grateful. - In Episode Twenty-Nine of the Fermenting Place [podcast], Tamara and I discuss ...

My guests for this very special Episode Twenty-Eight of the Fermenting Place [podcast] are Mike and Claudia Weersing (formerly) of Pyramid Valley Vineyards , Waikari, New Zealand. This stellar couple established Pyramid Valley in 2000, and sold in 2018. Tragically, Mike passed away last year, in 2020. I found this recording of my conversation with Mike and Claudia while digging through old folders and files on my computer, just a few weeks ago. I listened to the interview in full, and it remains one of the most treasured interviews I've ever done. This interview was never intended for broadcast - so the audio isn't as sharp as usual (apologies). The interview was originally turned into a two-part feature on my former website, The Wine Idealist , as The Empyrean (Part One), and Transcendence (Part Two). These two stories were recently turned into a published article for Organic Winegrowers New Zealand 'Organic Matters' magazine (Autumn 2021). As you will hear, both Mike and Claudia are in fine form, articulating their thoughts and ideas around wine and wine-growing. I thought it was important to let the world hear it. In Episode Twenty-Eight, Mike, Claudia, and I discuss ...
