amisha tala oak
Welcome to all that we are with amisha tala oak // a sanctuary of presence, vision, and deep remembering. On this podcast, we explore the rich intersection of sacred activism, regenerative futures, intuitive leadership, and creative possibility. These are the spaces where our inner and outer worlds dance - where ancestral wisdom meets future vision, where personal practice meets collective transformation. From trauma healing to nature connection, from mythic imagination to political courage, we journey beyond silos, reclaiming what it means to be fully human in these times of unraveling and renewal. Each episode invites real, embodied conversations that nourish your nervous system, awaken your sovereignty, and spark your soul’s remembrance.
Together, we are re-weaving a world where care, courage, beauty and responsibility co-exist and where we each rise into all that we are, all we are becoming, and all that is possible.

And we ask Sally Kempton (E8) how we navigate entering back into a forever changed and changing world. All three of these guests are elders with so much experience, love and wisdom to share. It’s a true honour to know them, and to learn from them and we hope that their words touch you deeply.

brontë velez on Spiritual Ecology, Black Liberation & Prophetic Attention - E91
How do we find a sense of connection and reciprocity with nature? In this episode entitled Ancestral Gifts That Soften The Edge, Amisha talks with black-latinx transdisciplinary artist, educator, and designer brontë velez (they/them). They discuss prophetic opportunities presented by Covid-19, the potency of death doulaship practices, spiritual ecology and technology for communities to understand our environmental responsibilities and to liberate from racial and spiritual trauma. brontë is guided by their understanding that Earth called them to bring along other children of colour to meet Earth and to experience each other in wild spaces. They draw on death doulaship practices, such as listening to Earth and prophetic dream practices to connect communities to Earth’s wisdom for prophetic insight on what other ways of being might be possible. In ecological planting ceremonies, their collective Lead to Life, holds space for black people to heal racial and spiritual trauma of community and land on their own terms. This podcast is part of a collaboration with St Ethelburgas, called Listening to each other : Listening to Earth, which reaches for the place where spiritual ecology and climate justice meet. It explores the integration of spirituality with grounded action through the lives and leadership of people of colour.

Co-Creating A New-Normal - E90
How do we navigate this time as a moment for radical change? As we emerge from our break into our forth series, we felt to bring the voices of some of our wise community here. So we asked our patrons to share voice messages with something they want to share and we recorded part of our May patrons call. We hope that you enjoy hearing these different perspectives. One of the most wonderful parts of The Future Is Beautiful is that we are co-creating it, our new normal, where we embody our sacred activism, where we learn and unlearn, where we all rise up as leaders.

Atulya Bingham on Offgrid Living, Nature Connection and Earth Whispers - E88
What does it take to create a life you love close to nature? In this episode entitled We Are All Sovereign Of Our Own Worlds, Amisha connects with author, mud home builder and Earth whisperer Atulya Bingham. Atulya speaks to us from her offgrid home in the mountains of Northern Spain, and shares the story of how she first took up residence in a tent on a hillside in Turkey. She tells of her initial terror, and then deep abiding love of the wild land and all its inhabitants. Together, Amisha and Atulya speak about the sensitivity and discernment that arises when we reconnect with wild nature, how living outside of the mainstream system brings joy and also challenge, and the process of decay that is making way for the seeds of new ways of being to come forth and bear fruit. They discuss the relational alchemy and diverse sources of wisdom that we find in connection with the natural world, how to listen to trees, and the critical importance of finding joy in every moment of life.

Raphaël Colicci on Biodynamic Agriculture, Holistic Therapy and Earth Connection - E87
How can we create abundance in harmony with nature? In this episode entitled Collaborating With Nature For Health And Healing, Amisha meets holistic therapist, cultivator of heritage foods and agricultural researcher Raphaël Colicci. Raphaël has enjoyed a deep bond to Mother Earth and wild nature since being raised on donkeys milk as an infant, and he knew at the tender age of 14 that he wanted to pursue a twin trail of work as a physical therapist and biodynamic cultivator. Raphaël shares the story of how he took on a plot of stony ground in the south of France and with patience, persistence, experiment and great care went beyond what was considered possible to cultivate a magnificent conservatory of rare and ancient fruit trees. Raphaël has devoted his life to researching and growing these fruit trees for their healing and nutritional properties as well as their marvellous flavour. Raphaël has founded a centre for natural therapies, including treatments with every part of the olive plant and also apitherapy from bees. He shares with us what he has learned from a lifetime of cultivation and experiment with the healing properties of nature, and invites us into the rhythm of his daily life. The result is a hypnotic and fascinating immersion in a rare and precious way of being.

Swaady Martin on Sacred Leadership, Intuition and Responsibility - E84
How can we step with a clear heart into the responsibility that comes with privilege? In this episode entitled The World Needs To Be Loved Not Saved, Amisha sits down with serial entrepreneur, author and teacher Swaady Martin. A former award-winning executive at General Electric, Swaady has gone one to found a series of socially conscious enterprises, as well as teaching mindfulness and yoga and writing spiritual tales for children. From a very young age, Swaady had a strong sense of being the creator of her own life. Her parents - both very different and from different blended cultural backgrounds- instilled in her a sense of responsibility that came along with the privilege she was born into. Swaady shares with us the inner process of deconditioning that we must go through in order to reconnect with our authentic selves, the earth and each other. By deeply questioning every one of our beliefs and values, we can clear space for the quiet voice of intuition to become louder, and to step into sacred leadership led by our intuition and our hearts.
