Lottie Dalziel - A Lot(tie) to be done but BANISH the guilt! (Ooh, that was a baby brain title if I’ve ever heard one…)

Lottie Dalziel - A Lot(tie) to be done but BANISH the guilt! (Ooh, that was a baby brain title if I’ve ever heard one…)

Author: The Hits December 6, 2022 Duration: 32:38

In 2018 Lottie Dalziel made the resolution to be kinder to the planet but struggled to find reliable sources on the subject with easy info to follow. Instead of being disheartened she saw an opportunity and founded Banish, an online platform with easy to digest information and methods to help reduce everyday waste. Lottie also runs BRAD – the Banish Recycling and Disposal Program. People send in hard-to-recycle items, such as blister packs, and Banish uses its partnership with TerraCycle to have them recycled in Australia.

The BRAD initiative recycled 11 tonnes of waste, or 150,000 products, from 11,000 households within its first 20 months. She’s an absolute powerhouse and has casually picked up the NSW Young Australian of the Year Award, yeow get it girl! I love her uplifting approach to caring for the planet and I hope it gives you a bit of inspo. Check out her amazing work with Banish here https://banish.com.au

There’s a particular feeling that comes with finding a quiet corner in a loud world, and that’s the space Slow It Down aims to create. Hosted by PJ Harding and presented by The Hits Podcast Network, this weekly podcast arrives every Sunday as an intentional pause. It’s less about adding another task to your list and more about carving out a genuine moment for yourself. You’ll hear thoughtful dialogues that weave together themes of personal well-being, cultural shifts, and practical self-improvement, all with a gentle, reflective tone. The second season continues this mission, offering fresh conversations with a variety of inspiring guests who share insights on living more mindfully. This isn’t a lecture or a rigid guide; it’s a companion for anyone feeling overscheduled and under-connected. Each episode serves as a gentle nudge to step back, breathe, and consider what matters. Tuning into this podcast feels like a small, weekly reset-a chance to unwind your thoughts and reconnect with a calmer perspective amidst the rush of daily life.
