Nurture Pod 13: The Fifth Sacred Thing

In this episode Iris and Ginger discuss The Fifth Sacred Thing - a novel by Starhawk of two potential futures that play out in California.

The book gives a glimpse into the power of writing a future that inspires rather than the apocalyptic wasteland that's shown so often in the media.

A key part of nuture culture is the ability to understand what seeds we are planting for future generations and how we want that future to look.

Calling all positive futurists! Give us a comment if you have a resource, book, podcast, movie that you love showing a healthy thriving future on planet Earth.

Nurture Pod 12: Summer Solstice

In this episode of the Nurture Pod, Iris and Ginger discuss this Summer Solstice /Full Moon in Capricorn moment and what it is revealing to us about how and where we place our energy.

This is the halfway point of the year. From this point on we are working with waning solar energy leading towards the Winter Solstice in December.

Nature is at it's peak bloom and yet not everything will make it to set seed in the fall.
There is a natural weeding and wilting of things over the months to come to make room for what is going to be harvested.

Capricorn asks us to get clear on what we do and do not want to spend our energy on.
Cancer asks us to nurture and nourish what is closest to our hearts and fills our cup with overflowing abundance.

Nurture Pod 11: Cat memes, Opium & Mycelium

Social media is always changing, evolving and learning from us just as we laugh, numb out and learn from it. It wasn't always this hard or easy to connect back before the turn of the century.

Nature teaches us about what vast interconnected networking is for but are our monkey brains able to go there?

Maybe AI will sort it out for us. Send more cat memes!

Nurture Pod 10: Community

In this episode Iris and Ginger talk about community. What is it? Who gets to create it? Why do some groups feel like community and others don't? Can we have a Nurture Culture without a community? What are the wounds we try to heal with Community and what wounds does it create?

So many interesting questions to discuss and spoiler alert- there's not really any clear answers. Listen in and tell us what you think!

Nurture Pod 9: Cleaning and letting go

In this episode Iris and Ginger talk about cleaning up their lives (and art studio and barn) and the relationship we have to stuff. Do our things nurture us or drag us down?
When is the right time to let it all go and start over? Materialism vs. Consumerism and what that means for us as a culture and in community.
