Shamanism, Animism and Being Human: Introducing the Podcast | This Wild and Precious Life, Trailer

Season 1

Friday, October 30, 2026 • Duration 24:57

In this short trailer, Paul Francis and Isabel Wells introduce This Wild and Precious Life, a podcast about shamanism, animism and what it means to be deeply human in a beautiful, broken, living world. We say who we are, and how the podcast began, when Isabel invited Paul onto her old podcast to talk about soul retrieval and we never stopped talking. We explain our down-to-earth, embodied approach, which needs no beliefs or leaps of faith, and what we mean by animism and shamanism. We talk about arriving at the same understanding from two very different lives, forty-four years and an ocean apart, and about why we don't always agree. Then we give you a taste of the first block of twelve episodes, and of what comes with each one. Episode 1, What Is Shamanism?, is out on Friday 20 November 2026, at 6pm UK time, with a new episode every Friday after that. No beliefs or experience needed, just your curiosity.

In this trailer:

Who we are, and how the podcast came about
A down-to-earth approach, with no beliefs or leaps of faith needed
Core shamanism and core animism, the birthright of all of us
What we mean by animism and shamanism
Arriving at the same place from two very different lives
Agreeing to differ, across cultures and generations

A free companion guide with every episode

The episode titles have moved on a little since we recorded this. The up-to-date list is in the companion guide.
