Welcome to the Take a Moment podcast, a space to block out the noise and let inspiration flow.
Our host, Susanne Holzweiler, is also one of the founders of our company. She’s been there since the early days when Holzweiler first started operating as a small agency in Oslo, and is now at the heart of operations as we transition into a global lifestyle brand.
Take a Moment with Holzweiler is a podcast inspired by Susanne’s experience of juggling life with a rapidly expanding business. Back in 2016 Susanne was operating as Holzweiler’s CEO:
‘I had been working so much and so hard, after having the business for 10 years. I had also gotten 2 small kids during that period, and it was just everything at the same time. I was working day and night - every spare second I was spending working.’
Susanne developed a bad case of burnout, and the remedy for this was quite literally to take a moment. Susanne shifted her lifestyle to allow for a space for wellness, meditation and rest, and to learn new information from books, podcasts and her peers.
Inspired by this, Take a moment with Holzweiler is our new podcast where we delve deep into the stories of the people who inspire us. There’s so much to learn if we take the time to listen to other people’s experiences, and this is what this podcast creates a space to do.
As our Holzweiler family continues to grow, we get to know the stories of an ever expanding range of people, from royalty to leaders in the modern wellness movement. Holzweiler sits at the intersection of life and style, therefore we often take our inspiration from the real people living life with the values that align with our own.
In the rush of the working week when everyone is dashing from meeting to meeting it’s hard to find the time to let creativity flow. So, we invite you to take a moment and join us for this podcast and see where inspiration from these stories can lead you to.

For this special episode, Susanne travels far into the countryside to meet up with Gudbrand, the founder of Horgan Gård. Susanne first met him when she was sourcing produce for Holzweiler Platz, and they connected over his vision for transforming farming practices towards sustainability and regenerative agriculture. Drawing on years of experience, in this conversation he highlights the importance of outdoor grazing and holistic farm management to reduce environmental impact and improve the overall quality of food.
Horgan Gård is committed to raising animals in a way that benefits the land and the environment, however Gudbrand is aware that switching to more sustainable methods isn’t always easy. Many farmers are already caught in cycles of debt and rely on subsidies; Gubrand believes that the system can only change for the better through time and support.
As the conversation shifts to the future, Gudbrand envisions a more holistic operation that focuses not on growth, but on maintaining balance. Ultimately, the goal is to inspire more sustainable farming practices that can be replicated on a larger scale, making high-quality, nutritious food more accessible and improving animal welfare. With a focus on education, transparency, and innovation, Horgan Gård is leading the way toward a future where food production is both sustainable and humane.
