Ep.37 Awakening to Interconnection with Nature: Lizzie Shutt's Personal Journey

In this special series launch episode, Dr. Patty interviews her daughter and co-host Lizzie to explore the origins of their newest podcast series: Nature's Role in Healing Trauma and Cultivating Wellness.

Whether you're a nature lover, a skeptic, a parent wondering how to inspire curiosity in your children, or someone seeking new pathways to healing, this series is for you.

This isn't just another wellness trend, this is Lizzie's life's work coming full circle. From a childhood spent mesmerized by A Bug's Life and asking for World Wildlife Fund donations instead of birthday presents, to sustainable summer camps in Ecuador and Costa Rica, to studying permaculture at Rancho Mastatal, to becoming a health coach and now a trauma therapist—Lizzie's path has always been guided by one question: How can I help the Earth?

In this tender, personal conversation, Dr. Patty and Lizzie trace the invisible thread that connects to her awakening that there is no separation between planetary health and human health.

This episode sets the stage for a groundbreaking summer series exploring how nature isn't just a nice place to visit, it's a fundamental part of who we are, and reconnecting with it is one of the most powerful tools we have for healing trauma, regulating our nervous systems, and living with more joy, peace, and purpose.
