Hi, I am Idun 

My journey

With a background in design and sustainability, I’ve spent years working with organizations to navigate complex challenges and embrace sustainability as a source of opportunity.

In 2024, I founded Respira to help businesses create strategies that go beyond compliance, fostering a planet-centric mindset that supports long-term success, without sacrificing joy or purpose.

My superpower: I translate complex, systemic challenges into simple, actionable strategies that inspire change.

I am restlessly chasing change while patiently supporting organisations and people in their regenerative transition. 

I started Respira because I believe in the power of people to create positive change—when approached with agency, joy, and curiosity.

I’m passionate about helping businesses meet their sustainability requirements while opening their eyes to the bigger picture—where innovation, resilience, and thriving come naturally.
