The tables have turned in the episode. Last year my good friend Rich Skrein asked if he could interview me, for my own podcast. This became a deeply personal conversation through the themes I usually invites guests to explore. Rich and I have learned together as mentees, write together in our own little writing group and in May collabing around retreat in the Swedish Forest. It felt like the perfect interviewer to go deep into the why of it all. We had asked listeners for questions, Rich had asked mutual friends for some and he brought his own. I feel very moved by this conversation. For the opportunity to talk about my friend, who's passing started this whole thing. To talk about what shapes and forms us and the harder parts of life that become important thresholds. It feels raw and very honest to share this with you. Thank you to all of those who have listened and supported Becoming Nature until now. There is so much more to come. In this epsiode we talk about: Becoming Nature and how it started Becoming vs. we are nature Honoring teachers No BS as a superpower Belonging and cultural identity Practices for grief and connection Dying and the beauty of being alive The best way to support the podcast is to listen, share, leave a review, rate and comment.

From Concrete to Wilderness with Jon Conradi 50:28

16 weeks ago50:28

50:28

Land remembers. This is the heart of many rewilding activities happening across the globe, as people work to restore depleted ecosystems. My guest today, Jon Conradi, founder of Wild Mosaic, is one of those people, working to rewild parts of the UK. One of the important learnings from my conversation with Jon was that while human intervention in nature restoration is needed, we aren’t nature’s sole saviours. We also need to find ways of stepping back so that ecosystems can recover through their own ‘remembering’ of their natural state. What’s more, Jon spoke about how we are a part of this remembering; we are part of these ecosystems, not separate from them! Rewilding nature is also about rewilding ourselves, as of nature. Through storytelling and reconnecting with wildness, we can remember alongside and with the land. And so, join us for this week’s episode, and become a part of nature’s ‘remembering’. In this episode, we talk about: Reconnecting humans to ‘wildness’ Wildlife and humans co-existing What it takes to rewild and restore land The impacts of humans separating ourselves from nature Some of the legal constraints of land use Pigs!

But we say yes to way too much stuff we don't need. I feel fueled and filled again with inspiration after speaking to her.
