Why People Protect What They Love: Hanli Prinsloo on Ocean Advocacy

How do you turn stillness into strength and connection into conservation? In this episode of ‘Creative women, leading change’, we sit down with Hanli Prinsloo — freediving world-record holder, ocean advocate, and founder of the I AM WATER Foundation — to explore how deep connection to nature can inspire lasting change. Hanli shares her journey from a horse farm in South Africa to the depths of the ocean, revealing how freediving became both an inner practice and a platform for global advocacy. We unpack why fear-based messaging fails, how storytelling rooted in vulnerability creates empathy, and why people protect who and what they love. 💡 WHAT YOU’LL LEARN Why connection is more powerful than awareness alone How ocean experiences create real behaviour change The role of vulnerability in authentic leadership How community-centred conservation drives long-term impact What gives hope in the face of climate and ocean crises 🌱 RESOURCES & ACTIONS Support the I AM WATER Foundation → https://www.iamwaterfoundation.org Watch the TED Talk The way we think about charity is dead wrong → https://www.ted.com/talks/dan_pallott...
