Welcome to episode 50 of the Nurtured by Nature podcast, today I’m excited to be celebrating this significant milestone with you all and wanted to take the time to express my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has joined me on the journey so far, from the incredible guests who have shared their stories and wisdom, to all of you, my beautiful listeners, this journey simply wouldn’t have been what it has without your encouragement, support and interaction with the community we are building together.

When considering what to share with you all on this memorable occasion I decided I wanted to come back to the central ethos that was my why for starting this journey: Maintaining Hope!! Finding the stories, people and wisdom that would provide us with ways to maintain hope as we face the current challenges in our world and seek to find opportunities to vision and create a brighter future. 

I take a look back over the last 20 episodes and share some of my favourite moments and stories from the incredible guests I have been able to share with you all, from Gardening for Wildlife and Holistic health to Sacred activism, Active Hope and journeying upstream to understand the Worldviews that currently dominant the way we experience the world, it has been a truly fascinating journey that has opened both my mind and my heart and left me forever changed by the stories and wisdom I have experienced alongside you all. 

I leave you with the reminder that we are more powerful than we imagine and encourage you to take action no matter how small it feels, everyone and everything truly mattress as together we move through this time of transition, and that when working in co-creation with the earth miracles truly can happen.
