The Phenomenology Collective (hosted by me and Dr Sally Goldspink) creates space for thoughtful conversations about lived experience across a range of professional, academic, and everyday contexts. Through dialogue with researchers, practitioners, and thinkers from different disciplines, it explores how phenomenological ways of attending can illuminate how the world is encountered, interpreted, and made meaningful.

Rather than focusing on disciplinary boundaries or formal research outputs, the podcast foregrounds applied phenomenology: how phenomenological thinking shows up in practice, shapes professional judgement, and alters how people notice, question, and respond to their everyday worlds.

Focus and themes

Conversations on the podcast often return to a small number of recurring themes:

• Applied phenomenology in professional and everyday life
• Lived experience, meaning, and interpretation
• Practice, judgement, and ways of seeing
• Space, place, and embodiment
• Writing, reflection, and dialogue as modes of inquiry
