In our final episode, we're joined by Dr Sophie Scamps, Independent Federal Member for Mackellar, for a powerful conversation about intergenerational fairness and her introduction of Australia's first Wellbeing of Future Generations Bill in February 2025. From stepping away from a secure medical career to championing systemic change in Parliament, Sophie shares what it takes to stand up for long-term thinking in politics, why the wellbeing of future generations must be at the heart of decision-making, and the growing movement she's helping to build for a more sustainable future.
