A Little Bit of Lagom is a weekly podcast about how to find a more balanced, sustainable and mindful approach to living. Taking inspiration from the Swedish concept of Lagom, loosely translating to “a little bit and not too much”, the podcast explores how this philosophy can be applied to all aspects of your life, to help the planet, help others, and improve your own well-being. A Little Bit of Lagom goes into environmentalism, veganism, work-life balance, health, wellness, cruelty free practices, sustainability, and how we can make small, practical changes in our lives to support positive change in a way that feels possible and achievable. Marla, host of the podcast, is a freelance dance artist, sports massage therapist and coach/mentor in training who has a multitude of passions, especially for the natural world, and felt a need to share and connect with others who want to find ways to live more sustainably with more balance in their lives.

Matilda is a freelance dance artist, we trained together at Northern School of Contemporary Dance, and as she grew up in Sweden, I thought it would be interesting to talk with her about how the concept of Lagom has become embedded in her values and approaches to living.
We cover so much in this conversation - how Lagom is integrated into the Swedish way of life, the differences she felt when moving to the UK, we discuss appreciation for nature, our views around capitalism and advertisement in shaping the disposable culture we live in, concerns surrounding tribalism with social media, and considering individual and collective responsibilities when approaching environmental and social injustices.
The conversation journeys down many avenues and stresses the importance of opening up dialogues in the pursuit of positive change.
I hope this conversation will spark your own interests in opening up conversations and continue to challenge your perspectives.
