Closed Chapters and New Seasons

mercredi 9 avril 2025 • Durée 15:27

Aligning with the cycles of the seasons means allowing the full winter to unpack and process before stepping into the new year. This episode, I am reflecting on a major transition over the past year in my professional life and the lessons that I gathered.

I share lessons in rewilding as a way to learn out loud for personal and collective growth, and as a reminder that rewilding is a nonlinear journey. It requires ongoing reflection, challenging common narratives, and matching values with sustainable practices.

Rewilding Reflections from the Episode:

“All the healing work I had done to tame my ego, hold complexity and paradox, and find peace in my body seemed to evaporate. I knew that growth was uncomfortable, but learning in such a visible way stretched me beyond what I had imagined.”

“In the midst of a big life lesson, it is hard to appreciate the wisdom and learning that is being woven into our being. The stretching creates new openings that rewrite our understanding of ourselves and the world, allowing for new connections and emergent possibilities.”

“Each point of conflict created an opportunity to reflect on parts of myself that were hurt or broken. As I learned to be curious about the pain and the instinct to resist, I softened just a bit more. I saw something different in myself and the stories I told myself about this pain.”

Rewilding Learning Community

lundi 27 janvier 2025 • Durée 20:17

In this episode, I reflect on my journey in community building, rewilding my approach to education, and starting a nature-based learning community, Rewild Learning Co-op.

In This Episode:

* A grounding breathwork exercise to settle into the present moment.

* Reflections on the importance of intentional community building and what it requires.

* Insights from my personal annual review and the themes that emerged from the past year.

* The evolution of the Rewild Learning Co-op and why we are building slow.

Rewilding Reflections from the Episode:

* “We need community right now, but not a whole lot of conversation about what that actually looks like in the day-to-day and what that requires.”

* “Taking your time and building slowly is the surest way to make sure that you are building a solid foundation.”

* “I want our older children to be given the opportunity to be leaders, guides, and mentors—and younger children offer a perspective of possibility and creativity.”

Okay, but what is self-care?

mardi 15 novembre 2022 • Durée 05:18

Anyone else feel lost when it comes to self care? It's not just you.

Many of us are having to relearn what it means to care for ourselves.

It is not something that we have to earn and it does not have to cost money.

However, It is something we must learn to prioritize in order to provide love and support to others around us.

Rest as a Lifelong Practice

mardi 29 octobre 2024 • Durée 12:21

Welcome Wild Ones

In this episode, I share a little new and a little old. I read my latest BGCL Substack post: Rest as a Lifelong Practice to explore my evolving relationship with rest and share a past post about why rest is essential in a world that values productivity over presence. I reflect on how rest has been a sacred part of my journey, reconnecting me to a deeper sense of self and teaching me that rest is a radical act of self-love and resistance.

In This Episode:

- A collective breath to ground ourselves during uncertain times

- Personal insights on rest as an evolving practice that invites us to reconnect with what truly matters.

- Reflections on how our culture’s obsession with productivity distances us from our right to rest.

- Questions for reflection on how we can honor rest in our daily lives.

Rewilding Reflections from the Episode:

“Rest also taught me that I have value beyond my labor. That being present with myself is an incredible gift.”

“Rest is the freedom from the things in our physical world that demand our time and attention. It is the disciplined pursuit of nothingness in order to connect to what is eternal.”

“We forget that being is not achieved through a collection of space, but through a connection between all living things, past, present, and future.”

Feeling the Earth in Our Bodies

mercredi 16 octobre 2024 • Durée 13:46

Welcome Wild Ones

In this episode, I read my latest BGCL Substack post: Feeling the Earth in Our Bodies. I reflect on the earth’s grief and the ways it mirrors our own. As the planet responds to extraction and disconnection, we are invited to remember that we, too, are nature. We feel this grief deeply in our bodies, carrying generations of longing for connection and balance.

In This Episode:

• A grounding breathwork exercise to connect with our bodies and the present moment.

• Reflections on grief as a response to the detachment from our natural selves and the world both individually and collectively.

• A journey into rewilding and reclaiming our bodies as sacred vessels of wisdom and truth.

• Affirmations and questions for reflection on how to reconnect with our bodies and each other.

Rewilding Reflections from the Episode:

“The earth is grieving. Beyond the sadness of this autumn season—she is hurting from the extraction, conflict, and suffering that is rampant across this world.”

“I have come to refer to my body as my little slice of earth. It is my place for tending and nurturing. A place where I can create safety and seek out wisdom.”

“We are collectively feeling a sense that we need each other. That what we have been doing is no longer working. Our bodies are telling us it is time to shift and come home.”

Endings are also Beginnings

mardi 1 octobre 2024 • Durée 11:42

Welcome Wild Ones

In today’s episode, I read to you my latest substack post: "Endings Are Beginnings." This explores the cyclical nature of life, how seasons, systems, and organizations experience growth, decline, and renewal. Together, we reflect on how we can hold space for the messy, sacred transitions that pave the way for new life.

In This Episode:

- A collective breathwork exercise to center our attention and drop into the present moment.

- Reflections on the autumn season and the beauty in embracing cycles of decay and renewal.

- Insights from personal, community, and systemic perspectives on how endings make way for beginnings.

- An invitation to reflect on how we move through our own transitions, honoring the natural cycles of life.

Rewilding Reflections from the Episode:

“Just like autumn, the releasing of the old is an invitation to reset. It is a beautiful, messy, raw, and sacred deconstruction of the past and an initiation of a new cycle of great potential.”

“Nature never panics when autumn rolls around each year; it simply trusts that death will be followed by birth. I am learning to trust this process, to trust that every ending is simply part of the symphony of new beginnings.”

“We are deep in our autumn season, releasing what no longer serves us. We are setting down ideas of separateness, dominance, and rigid hierarchy in favor of possibilities that honor our responsibilities to ourselves, each other, and the living world.”
