Episode 51 - Tom Kay - Finisterre - Ocean of Life

In this episode I'm in conversation with Tom Kay founder of ocean inspired outdoor clothing brand and BCorps Finisterre. This shorter than usual conversation took part just before Sea 7 - the world's first Ocean activist training camp, dreamed up and bought to the world by Finisterre with design partners Protect Blue, just before the G7 world leaders gathering in June down in Cornwall - the home of Finisterre. I had the honour of hosting the 6 hr event which included talks, panels and workshops from the world's leading ocean activists, scientists, campaigners, designers, working tirelessly to protect and regenerate our planets life support system - the ocean.

In this conversation I caught up with Tom to explore the thinking behind Sea 7, some reflections on the Finisterre journey of the last 19 years, the impacts of the pandemic and what next for the brand in these unravelling times. We then swiftly jumped in the ocean before kicking off Sea 7.

Stay locked for the outro track, an ocean flavoured remix of our title music which includes a gift of a poem from podcast mixmaster @Charlie Shread - Earth Origin
