Sense-Making in a Changing World Slow Clothing - Jane Milburn with Morag Gamble
What a pleasure to share this conversation with you today on Sense-Making in a Changing World with my wonderfully talented friend, Jane Milburn.
Jane is a Slow Clothing champion and 2019 Churchill Fellow. She presents a compelling case for why we need to change the way we dress. She is also the founder and creative force of Textile Beat - inspired by her growing understanding of the impacts of our clothes on people and planet, and our own personal health.
Jane published Slow Clothing: Finding meaning in what we wear in 2017 and throughout it presents a new narrative about clothing that is regenerative. Slow clothing is more than just wearing natural clothes . Jane has a whole slow clothing philosophy which she shares through her slow clothing manifesto: think, natural, quality, local, few, care, make, revive, adapt, salvage.
Jane offers a beautiful everyday practical philosophy that is accessible to everyone everywhere, that brings us to wholeness through living more simply, creatively and fairly .
I hope you love this conversation just as much as I did, and see how it's the little things we do that can actually make the world the of difference.
Since Jane wasn't able to travel this year with her Churchill Scholarship due to COVID, she held a 'virtual Churchill' - zooming with her guests. Check out her interviews on Textile Beat. To make the most of her time, she did her permaculture design course and immediately saw the parallels and calls slow clothing.

I am a possibilitarian and I believe in HumanKINDness.
In this podcast my guests and I explore How are we to live? Really live, as nature ourselves, tending the conditions where life can thrive. We ask How do we become the kind of humans this moment is asking us to be?
This podcast is one of my acts of myceliation. Each conversation is a thread in a vast network of people speaking up for life with love and care.
This podcast beams out from my hand-built solar-powered studio in the midst of a permaculture food forest in a permaculture ecovillage on Jinibara and Gubbi Gubbi country.
If this episode lights something in you, pass it to one person who needs it. That is how myceliation works.
