Summary
In this episode, Marina reflects on power, responsibility, and duty of care. As November marks a season of endings and beginnings, she looks beneath the surface of our systems — from education to environment, and asks what happens when we stop paying attention, and what it costs us when we do. This conversation traces the threads between integrity and innocence, corruption and accountability, and how our personal and professional ethics shape the wider ecology we live within. Key ideas explored The uneasy link between wealth, power, and moral compromise November as a time for renewal How concentrated power in health, education, and business leads us to protect ourselves instead of our purpose Teachers and leaders navigating the “topside world” while tending what lies beneath — our own psychology and hidden systems Moving beyond naïveté without losing hope or care Reclaiming duty of care — asking whether our systems live up to the ethics we teach Practicing stewardship: leaving no trace, enhancing biodiversity, and restoring the flow of responsibility Shownotes: https://theoutdoorteacher.com/podcasts/episode-76-the-cost-of-looking-away/ Music by Geoff Robb: www.geoffrobb.com Please Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts If you have enjoyed today's episode, please consider rating and reviewing my show!
