Becoming Nature: How Loss Inspired a Podcast and Deep Conversations

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.

Thank you for your help keeping this show alive <3
