14. Cade McConnell on Consciousness over Convenience & Earth-led Artistry.

The season finale of The World Needs Creatives Podcast is here, and I’m excited to invite you into the precious and generous world of Cade McConnell -  A cook, poet, maker and author.

Cade’s artistry is born from reviving traditional ways with food and he lives by the philosophy of consciousness over convenience.

Today, we explore what it means to treat food production and consumption as a sacred act. We’ll also walk the path of Cade’s creation story and learn how the unfolding nature of initiation helps us to reveal the fullness of who we are.

In today’s conversation we go deep, exploring everything from: 

• Cade’s experience healing masculine wounds
• What is means to live in integrity
• The energetics of food
• Our collective disconnection with food production and preparation 
• How to add more soul to our meals
• The gifts that are born from presence and patience
• The difference between conventional, organic, biodynamic and regenerative farming methods
• How earth made cooking materials provide lasting healing benefits
• And Cade shares why the act of cooking is profoundly worthy of our time and care.

As a final parting gift, I asked Cade to share one of his recent poetic pieces to land us all in our hearts as we close this seasonal cycle.
