Ep.105 Solo Together with Penelope Mavor

This conversation with Penelope Mavor took an unexpected—and beautiful—turn. We set out to talk about land-based leadership and Earth connection... and instead uncovered the deeper threads of solitude, sovereignty, and the paradox of being “solo together.”

Penelope and I reflect on our own practices, the myths of separateness, and why solitude isn't about isolation—it’s about reconnection.

This one’s for the sensitive leaders, the multipotentialites navigating inner noise, and anyone who’s forgotten that stillness is also a superpower.
