About This Podcast

The Candid Sustainability Podcast is a podcast about real conversations at the intersection of people, planet, and progress, hosted by me, Kabelo Rathobei.
In each episode I sit down with changemakers, practitioners, and everyday people doing extraordinary things in sustainability, from careers and climate finance to youth advocacy, renewable energy, and beyond. We keep it candid, we keep it honest. And we bring an African perspective to the global sustainability conversation, because Africa’s voice belongs at the centre of this dialogue not at the margins.
