Where Wonder Grows, with Clare

dimanche 26 juillet 2026 • Durée 21:28

Clare Redman of Gingerly Green Flower Farm, on the art of flower farming, the changing seasons and finding wonder every day.

What happens when you spend your days growing flowers?

This week, I'm at Gingerly Green Flower Farm in Kent with its founder Clare Redman.

As we wander through rows of blooms alive with birdsong and bees, Clare shares what it's taught her to live and work with the seasons, why flowers can never be rushed, and how years spent close to nature have deepened her sense of wonder.

It's a gentle conversation about slowing down, paying attention, and finding joy in watching something grow.

In this episode:

Growing flowers in rhythm with the seasons
Why flowers can't be rushed
The changing beauty of the flower farm throughout the year
Finding wonder in everyday moments
Living and working closely with nature, especially the variety of birds - from red kites to yellowhammers - that live and swoop around the farm while she works

Why growing flowers has changed the way Clare sees the world
Clare's very convincing yellowhammer impression :)

The Places That Hold Us, with Maxine

dimanche 19 juillet 2026 • Durée 19:10

Maxine Russo, founder of Contemporary Kent Artists, on belonging, creativity, grief and finding community by the sea

What if the places we return to again and again aren't just landscapes, but companions?

In this episode of Where We Come Alive, I join Maxine Russo beneath the wide skies of Tankerton Slopes on the Kent coast.

As sailing boats drift on the horizon and waves lap against the shore, we explore the places that shape us, hold us through life's biggest transitions and help us reconnect with who we are.

For Maxine, this stretch of coastline is woven through some of the most significant moments of her life: a place of grief, love, reinvention and renewal. Following divorce, relocation and loss, it became somewhere she could rediscover herself and begin again.

Together we talk about the role creativity plays in building community, why artists help us see the world differently, and what the sea can teach us about letting go of control.

We also explore the story behind Contemporary Kent Artists, the thriving creative community Maxine founded to champion artists across the county.

This is a conversation about belonging, not just to a place, but to yourself.

In this episode:

• Why Tankerton near Whitstable in Kent became a place of healing, reflection and renewal after divorce and loss

• How the sea helps Maxine quiet self-doubt and gain perspective on life's challenges

• The connection between creativity, community and feeling rooted in a place

• How Contemporary Kent Artists grew from conversations overlooking the coast

• What artists have taught Maxine about authenticity, trust and letting life unfold

• Why nature can be such a powerful companion for mental wellbeing

• The surprising parallels between looking at art and looking at the sea

What the Flowers are Teaching Us, with Kate

dimanche 12 juillet 2026 • Durée 20:07

Kate Henshaw-Hughes on creativity, seasonality and finding beauty in the everyday

Standing beside her little shepherd's hut (Bracken & Bloom) in the Kent countryside, surrounded by wildflower meadows, birdsong and rolling fields, independent florist Kate Henshaw-Hughes shares how flowers became far more than a creative outlet; they became a way of seeing the world.

Together, we explore seasonality, sustainability, the beauty of fleeting moments and why slowing down might help us notice what's already blooming around us.

In this episode:

• Why Kate was always drawn back to the landscape she calls home

• How a lockdown floristry course unexpectedly changed the direction of her life

• What working with seasonal British flowers has taught her about patience, creativity and letting go of control

• Why flowers are at their most beautiful when we allow them to belong to the season they're meant for

• The surprising connection between floristry, community and bringing people together

• Why taking off our shoes and reconnecting with the natural world can instantly ground us (you can even join us barefoot walking!)

• What flowers might be trying to teach us that we're not fully listening to yet

If you've ever found yourself longing to slow down, notice more and reconnect with the rhythms of the natural world, this conversation is for you.

Enjoyed this episode?

Explore the rest of the Where We Come Alive series, where I spend time outdoors with inspiring women in the places that mean the most to them—from canals and coastlines to flower farms and wild landscapes—discovering how nature shapes the way we live, create and feel most alive. 🌿🌸🎙️

Walking through the Sea, with Kim

dimanche 5 juillet 2026 • Durée 19:37

Abstract and environmental painter Kim O'Neil on creativity, texture and listening to the landscape

What happens when we stop trying to control the landscape and start listening to it instead?

In this episode of Where We Come Alive, I join environmental artist Kim O'Neil on the shoreline at Seasalter, Kent. Together we wade through shallow water, get stuck in the mud, watch crabs scurry across the sand and discover how the sea has become both inspiration and collaborator in Kim's creative practice.

As we walk, Kim shares why touching a surface can be more powerful than simply looking at it, how motherhood transformed the way she experiences the natural world, and why she trusts the landscape more than her own plans.

This is a conversation about texture, creativity, imperfection and what happens when we allow nature to guide us rather than trying to shape everything ourselves.

A walk through the sea that becomes a reflection on how to live.

This is a conversation about texture, creativity, trust and the beauty of becoming part of the landscape rather than standing apart from it.

In this episode:

• Why the sea became the catalyst for a profound shift in Kim's artistic practice

• How texture, touch and immersion shape the way she creates

• Why she trusts the landscape more than her own plans

• What nature can teach us about imperfection, uncertainty and change

• How motherhood transformed the way she sees both art and the natural world

Peace in the Heart of a City, with Chelvi

dimanche 28 juin 2026 • Durée 20:20

Finding stillness, perspective and presence with Chelvi beside the Canterbury canal.

When you think about the place where you feel most grounded, you might imagine a quiet beach, an ancient woodland or a mountain view.

Chelvi Mailvaganan, a Buddhist meditation teacher, chose the heart of Canterbury.

In this episode of Where We Come Alive, I join Chelvi for a walk beside the city's bustling canal. Surrounded by tourists, flowing water and everyday life, we explore why peace isn't always found in silence and how learning to be fully present can transform the way we experience the world around us.

Along the way, Chelvi shares how meditation has helped her navigate life's challenges, why being amongst people makes her feel more connected rather than overwhelmed, and how perspective can soften even life's most difficult moments.

Part way through our walk, Chelvi also invites us to pause for a gentle 90 second, guided meditation, offering listeners the chance to experience the calm we've been talking about rather than simply hearing about it.

This is a conversation about presence, compassion, connection and discovering that perhaps the peace we're searching for has been within us all along.

In this episode:

Why Chelvi feels most alive in the heart of Canterbury
Finding stillness in the middle of a busy city
How meditation helps us respond rather than react
Why connection with other people can be deeply grounding
A guided 90 second meditation to experience during the episode
The surprising relationship between nature, mindfulness and everyday life

The Art of Noticing, with Sarah

Saison 1 · Épisode 1

dimanche 21 juin 2026 • Durée 20:43

What makes a place feel magical?

In the first episode of Where We Come Alive, I join gardener and garden designer Sarah from The Garden Creative for a walk through the beautiful gardens of Mount Ephraim in Kent.

Together we explore wild grasses, birdsong, scent, texture and atmosphere, and ask what it is about certain places that helps us slow down, reconnect and notice more deeply.

Along the way, Sarah shares how she creates gardens designed not just to look beautiful, but to make us feel something — and why nature may be one of our greatest teachers when it comes to living well.

In this episode:

• Why Sarah is drawn to wild, naturalistic landscapes
• How gardens can be designed around feeling, not just appearance
• The role of scent, texture and atmosphere in shaping our experience
• Why we may have forgotten how to notice the natural world
• What gardens can teach us about slowing down
• Creativity, intuition and designing from feeling rather than logic
• Birdsong, grasses, insects and the small moments we often miss

Recorded at Mount Ephraim Gardens, Kent.
