    Apr 28 2025

    In this powerful episode of Now Boarding, we sit down with Ali Horriyat, former financier and founder of Compassivist, a global movement that reimagines giving, compassion, and systemic change.


    Ali opens up about the radical decision to part with his entire fortune. He does this not for headlines, but to reclaim his freedom and realign his life with purpose. He shares how this choice changed his relationships, challenged traditional ideas of charity, and led him to create a platform focused on long-term impact through storytelling, the arts, and community-led initiatives.


    What you’ll take away:

    – Why money without meaning leads to emptiness

    – How giving can shift from guilt to empowerment

    – What it takes to build a movement, not just a foundation

    – The role of compassion in rebuilding a fractured world


    Tune in to discover why impact is not about how much you give, but how deeply you care.

    What if the clothes you donate never make it to the shop floor?


    In this heartfelt episode of Now Boarding, we sit down with Julie Moorhouse, Founder of Good Maker Tales, to explore the surprising realities of sustainable fashion.


    Julie’s journey began not in fashion, but during quiet moments of reflection as a new mother navigating an unexpected career pause. What followed was a deep dive into the environmental cost of our wardrobes and a mission to make ethical fashion accessible and honest.


    Julie shares the lesser-known truths about textile waste, why recycling your old clothes isn't as straightforward as it seems, and how certifications and transparency can guide better choices. Her approach is refreshingly non-judgmental, rooted in curiosity and a desire to help others take one small step at a time.


    This is a conversation for anyone who has ever stood in front of a bursting wardrobe and wondered, “What now?”
