Gene Baur is the founder of Farm Sanctuary, a place of rescue, refuge, and adoption for hundreds of farm animals each year. Farm Sanctuary shelters enable visitors to connect with farm animals as emotional, intelligent individuals. Gene has also led campaigns to change laws about animal treatment and taken undercover photographs of farms, stockyards, and slaughterhouses, documenting deplorable conditions. His pictures and videos exposing factory farming cruelties have aired nationally and internationally, educating millions about the plight of modern farm animals, and his rescue work inspired an international farm sanctuary movement. Once called “the conscience of the food movement” by Time magazine, Gene walks the walk and talks the talk when it comes to food and animal rights. Jay and Gene discuss the political and cultural steps that will bring about the end of factory farming and a healthier approach to animals and food.

55:26

In this powerful episode of Alchemy Hub , I sit down with Carla Raads – an international contemporary artist originally from the Eastern Cape of South Africa, now based in the UK. Carla’s journey is nothing short of inspiring. From studying interior design to building a 12-year modelling career across the UK, her path took a dramatic turn following the birth of her son. After facing anxiety, insomnia, and the emotional weight of new motherhood and IVF, Carla turned to painting as a form of therapy and emotional release. Using only her hands and makeshift canvases in her basement, she began pouring her emotions onto the canvas - unintentionally creating artwork that deeply moved those around her. What began as a private healing process quickly became a professional breakthrough. In 2023, Carla was named a “Driven by Dreams” ambassador by Porsche, and her art has since been exhibited across Europe, including a successful solo show at the Jumeirah Hotel in Sóller, Mallorca. This episode explores how creativity can become a tool for healing, purpose, and reinvention. Whether you’re an aspiring artist, a mother navigating personal transformation, or someone looking for inspiration, Carla’s story shows how art can truly change your life. 🎨 Topics Covered: • Carla’s transition from modelling to contemporary art • Using art as therapy for anxiety and insomnia • The emotional journey of IVF and new motherhood • Becoming a Porsche “Driven by Dreams” ambassador • Building a career as a self-taught female artist • Exhibiting art across Europe 🔔 Subscribe for more inspiring conversations with entrepreneurs, creatives, and changemakers.
