    Therapeutic Nature Mindfulness Practices for Anywhere & Nature as Metaphor w/ Laura Sgro of Out of the Woods Therapy

    Laura Sgro, of Out of the Woods Therapy, is a holistic anxiety and trauma therapist in California, utilizing both evidence-based and experiential techniques to help folks heal. In addition to her practice, she loves speaking about various mental health topics and also creates psychoeducational (but relatable) content in her quest to make mental health information more accessible to all. Laura is also on the Board of Directors for a women's hiking and wellness nonprofit, We Hike to Heal. Nature wholeheartedly informs Laura's work. In virtual therapy, we lean into nature through metaphor, mindfulness, and activities that help clients connect with nature and therefore expand their connection with self and others. Nature inherently reflects the process of healing and was the inspiration behind her practice name, Out of the Woods Therapy. She also plans to incorporate outdoor and walk-and-talk therapy later this year, which will be an exciting adventure! In this episode, Laura and I chat all about therapeutic nature mindfulness practices no matter where you are, nature as metaphor, and how movement outdoors like hiking and walking can also be a helpful resource in healing.

    Earth’s Elements for Business & Business, Leadership, and Healing as Ecosystems w/ Priyanka Khandalkar, CEO of SynrGEE

    Priyanka Khandalkar, CEO of SynrGEE, supports heart-centered and soul-led entrepreneurs in building businesses that align with intentional living. Her background is in engineering and operations, and she has scaled over 1,200 businesses through systems and strategy. But over time, she realized sustainable success requires more than structure. It requires emotional intelligence, healing, and inner alignment. Her journey through burnout, divorce, and spiritual awakening shifted her work deeply. She now integrates strategy with soul, helping leaders release overwhelm, regulate their nervous systems, and build businesses that reflect who they are becoming, not just what they are achieving. Nature plays a powerful role in this integration. Priyanka believes nature mirrors our healing process. It teaches cycles, surrender, growth, and resilience. In this episode, Priyanka and I chat all about Earth's elements in connection to business, how ideas like nature have their own timing, and business, leadership and healing as ecosystems.

    Greg Christian, founder of Sustainable Food Institute of America and Beyond Green Partners, focuses on going into school kitchens and teaching them how to cook and buy local food AND stay cost neutral.

    Low Toxin Living, Skin as an Organ of Communication & How Plants Teach Presence w/ Jodi Scott, Founder of Green Goo & CEO of SpryLife

    Jodi Scott, founder of Green Goo and CEO of Spry Life, a plant based first aid and nutritive skincare company she built with her mom and sister from a tiny kitchen to more than 120,000 retail locations nationwide. What began as slow infused herbal salves in mason jars has grown into a nationwide community who care deeply about low toxin living, resilience, and restoring trust in the body’s natural healing process. She leads, formulates, mentors, and speaks about building in alignment with nature rather than against it, and about how resilience begins at the level of the body, the soil, and the self. Jodi has a background in pre med studies and a Master’s in health psychology, so her work bridges science and soul.

    Spring Transitions and Practices w/ Melanie Huestis & Mandee Nicole

    Holistic Nutrition & Body Scan Meditation w/ Sammy Williams of Natural Nutrition

    Sammy Williams of Natural Nutrition reconnects people to their intuitive selves through nutritional coaching and holistic strategies.

This then leads them to want to care for and nurture themselves, which then generates the desire to care for the environment, spend more time in nature and reconnect with deep wisdom.  In this episode, Sammy and I chat all about holistic nutrition and the body scan meditation.
