  • Grounded and very hopeful

    Thank you so much for these thoughtful and informative interviews. I especially enjoyed the interview with Suzanne Simard mentioning her book, Finding The Mother Tree. I recently read that book and it was inspirational. So grateful that I have found your podcast. In these times of societal and environmental upheaval ideas you are presenting are important to keep us moving toward the possibility of our whole selves connected with every animal, every tree every environment and all humans as one.

  • Accessible Environmentalism and Wellness

    Really enjoyed the casual and accessible conversation between Jonathan Rose and Bill McKibben. Will also check out the podcast that Jonathan promotes on the show, as the idea that “as a society, we’re addicted to anxiety” is worth exploring.
