Sportsfreund meets Takt und Verstand – Veronika in the podcast

Social sustainability, environmental protection, taking responsibility - everyone is talking about sustainability, but how does it work, how can I make my purchase decision if it should be a new part for the horse and what does all this have to do with sheep?! That is the topic of the tölt interrogation of tact and mind with Sportsfreund founder and boss Veronika Conen. (Only in German)

Autorin: Veronika Conen, CEO Sportsfreund-Studios

Do you also regularly find yourself wanting to hear nothing more about climate change, species extinction, environmental destruction, etc. etc.? And not because you don't care about the issues and are therefore just annoying, but because they seem so overwhelming against the background noise of the ongoing crisis and the limited options for action seem so hopeless? At the latest, when I also get feelings of guilt, I just want to suppress and close myself off.

In any case, I always have to switch to slack so that I don't lose heart. Fortunately, however, sustainable action does not only mean renunciation and desolation, but also some quite unexpected gains in an inclusive new quality of life.

Veronikas Podcast-Debut

We have been working with Svenja Linder and Melanie Schiess from Instagram-Profil TAKT UND VERSTAND . Now the time has come for my first podcast interview.. Im sogenannten Töltverhör löcherten mich die beiden mit Fragen zum Thema „Nachhaltigkeit“ im Allgemeinen und fühlten mir auf den Zahn, wie wir es bei Sportsfreund so halten mit dem gerne genommenen Begriff und ob wir aufrichtig damit umgehen. Es entwickelte sich ein sehr lebendiges Gespräch, das uns allen gute Erkenntnisse lieferte. Euch hoffentlich auch! Viel Spaß dabei.

What can I start with?
Shoppingverzicht ist eins der ersten Mittel, das verschrieben wird auf dem Weg zu mehr Nachhaltig-keit. „Heiliger Sankt Florian, behüt mein Haus, zünd andere an“, sagt der Bayer. Hier stehen wir an der Wegkreuzung zwischen gutem und schlechtem Gewissen. Auch wir sind ein Unternehmen, das vom Verkauf seiner Produkte lebt. Immerhin geben wir uns die größte Mühe, unsere Produkte so zu konzipieren und herzustellen, dass sie möglichst wenig Schaden anrichten. Wenn ihr bei uns einkauft und eurerseits die Produkte schätzt und so behandelt, dass sie ein langen Leben haben, dann haben wir gemeinsam ein paar Sachen gut gemacht.

A small note about our prices: you pay more with us, but unlike the current energy prices, you also get more from us. The price may be unsexy, but our products are real seducers and ultimately deliver reliably!

Probably the most sustainable blanket
I think it's important that we're always proud of what we've achieved. No matter how big or small the achievement for the world. At least that's how it is with us Wool Rug BAVARIA made from original Bavarian mountain loden. It ticks so many sustainability boxes while not having the cheerless taste of a dry spelled patty. It is of almost glamorous beauty and works optimally on top of that. If that isn't a plus.
