Today’s guest is just an incredible person.

James Bartle is the Founder and CEO of Outland Denim which, if you’re unfamiliar with, get familiar with! It’s a denim and clothing brand that doesn’t just try to minimise its harm or footprint, but actively works to create change by taking women out of the human & sex trafficking industries, training them as seamstresses, and giving them the tools and responsibilities to create a new life. It’s such a powerful example of how a business can take a weakness and turn it into a strength. Just like our personal weaknesses and traumas that can become our superpowers once we work through them and integrate them, Outland Denim is an incredible example of doing just that in a business context.

But this isn’t ‘How I Built This’ with questions solely about what the business does; this is about James's personal story. What did he go through to want to create this impact in the world? What moments shaped him to go from being a motocross racer to creating a fashion company that is changing the world? James openly shares his personal and spiritual beliefs and values that are so strong that they have flowed into his work, and you’ll just hear in his voice how genuine he is. You’re going to love this one, you really will.

I want to acknowledge the land of the Wannggeriburra people of Yugambeh country where we recorded this conversation, I want to acknowledge the land that you’re on, and I want to acknowledge you, dear listener, for showing up and choosing to consume a form of media that is seeking to push us in the direction of connection, remembering, and love.

The Overview Effect is the paradigm shift astronauts experience when viewing Earth from space; where their outlook on life changes, they experience an emotional and spiritual transformation, and they return to Earth profoundly connected to Nature and humanity.

What would our world look like if we lived from the perspective of this ‘Overview Effect’? Join James Perrin as he speaks with influential thinkers, environmentalists, humanitarians, & entrepreneurs to explore the moments in their lives that have shaped the way they see the world, their stories of awakening and transformation, and ultimately, how these moments have influenced the impact they're seeking to create in their lives.

In a world that faces endless crises (climate, wealth inequality, homelessness, health, racial injustice, and so much more), this podcast asks "What if we all experienced our own moments of transformation? What if the most pertinent crisis, that underpinned all of the others that we face, is that of our own consciousness and morality?"
