Episode 21: Building Community and Knitting as Activism by Ilse Donker The Nature Connection Podcast

The last podcast episode of 2023 is a special one! Our guest is Ilse Donker. She is at the forefront of the skillsharing movement in The Netherlands, and shares her views on community, capitalism and activism. In this episode you’ll discover how nature is deeply woven into her work and ways of being - and the importance of knitting socks as holiday gifts.

This year of making a podcast has fulfilled me in more ways than I could ever thought possible. It allowed me to have many amazing conversations with experts in the field of nature connection and rewilding and meeting such wonderful people. If you supported the podcast this year, I want to send you heartfelt thank you. ❤️
