Episode notes
Start By Actually Using The Outdoors
- Go outside and build a real relationship with nature by practicing extractive use like gathering or foraging.
- Do simple, regular interactions (collect tea herbs, kindling, or wildflowers) not just recreational visits.
Live In Three Worlds
- Balance living across three worlds: natural, built, and digital to truly thrive in modern life.
- Mastering access to the natural world matters more than how much you extract from it.
Invest Time And Mentorship
- If you go deep into foraging/hunting, set aside time and say no to other commitments to learn skills and find mentors.
- Use workshops, mentors, and practice because there is no formal college program for these skills.
