We explore what happens to creativity when it collides with grief.

    Re Naturing: Uncovering Your True Nature with Alyssa Benjamin of Our Nature

    Alyssa Benjamin Is a writer, brand strategist and host of Our Nature. As Alyssa describes it….We have a biological need to connect with our environment. And yet, so many of us, have distanced ourselves from nature, favoring the comforts that technology and modern culture bring us.   She began to notice the further we are from the natural world, the further we are from ourselves, and in turn, the less healthy, less happy we are in general. She created Our Nature to change that.   Today Alyssa shares her experience of returning to nature or what she calls “The Great Remembering”. We chat about the importance of experiencing nature in community, and the difference between being in nature and being connected to nature . We also explore how the natural world is our greatest teacher, and Alyssa expresses how challenging her ego allowed her to feel the truth of her aliveness.

    Nourishing Your Soul + Finding Resonance with Nitsa Citrine

    Nitsa Citrine is is an artist, alchemist, photographer, and host of the podcast Soundfood. She grew up at the Esalen Institute - a creative community near Big Sur.  I was so curious about Nitsa’s childhood and how growing up surrounded in wellness and healing arts impacted the path her life took as an adult. We of course talk about adaptogens, herbs, and nourishment of all kinds, but I think my favorite part of our conversation is when Nitsa dives into what it means to really be “in tune” with our bodies.  We talk a lot about learning to decipher what fills you up from what drains you, and this conversation truly filled me up and recharged my creative spirits. I know y’all are going to love it!
