The Good Dirt: Sustainability Explained

TRIGGER WARNING: Princess Manuel briefly mentions her history with suicidal ideation. If you or someone you know needs help, please contact the National Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988. Many of us have lost our connection to the Earth through decades of colonization and the pressures of a capitalistic system, and consequently we have lost connection to our community as well. How can we rediscover our way back to each other and the plant and animal life all around us? Princess Manuel, LMSW (she/they/siya/sila), has been pursuing the answer to this question as a Spiritual Life Coach, Community Herbalist, Shamanic Practitioner and Founder of LUYA Healing and Herbs. She is deeply committed to helping communities of color heal generational trauma that presents itself in triggers, exhaustion, lack of motivation and low self-worth. Princess is interested in helping us thrive and rise above victimization and survival, and specializes in mental health wellness with a decolonization and intersectional framework. In this conversation, Princess talks about efforts to decolonize therapy and address the limiting beliefs placed on us all, and explains how nature holds the healing we need for our original attachment and mother wounds. Princess gives us unique insight into the healing wisdom of plant medicines, ancestral technology and somatic practices, animal spirit guides and ritual practices as tools for helping us reconnect with ourselves and the land.Topics Discussed• It's still summer!• Decolonizing therapy• Addressing Limiting Beliefs and the impacts of racism, sexism and classism• Intergenerational and present-day trauma• Healing by Reconnecting with the Earth• Becoming an Herbalist & Studying Traditional Medicine• Guidance towards Shamanism• Psychosomatic Healing Practices• Sourcing Herbs• Attachment Wounds & Mother Wounds• Insecure vs. Secure Attachments• Learning from Plants through the Indigenous View instead of a Capitalistic View• Healing Our Original Attachment Wound & Reconnecting with the Land• Indigenous Peoples' Connection to & Knowledge of the Earth• Belonging• The Privilege of the Nuclear Family• Generational Traumas• Animal and Spiritual Herbalism• Shamanic Journeying & A Lifestyle of Ritual Practice• Community Organizing & Think Tanks• The Soul Fire Farm Speaker's Collective• Knowing that You Are LoveEpisode Resources:•Listen to Slow Living Through the Seasons | 01 | August: Intro to Gardening by the Moon •Listen to The Good Dirt "Restoring Justice Through Love and the Living Soil with Jonathan McRay of Silver Run Forest Farm"• Join The Good Dirt Supporters! •"Love, Nature, Magic: Shamanic Journeys Into the Heart of My Garden" by Maria Rodale•"Finding the Mother Tree: Discovering the Wisdom of the Forest" by Suzanne Simard •Sign Up for a Discounted Session with LUYA Healing & Herbs Here!Connect with Princess Manuel:• Follow Princess Manuel on IG @decolonizehealingjourney: https://www.instagram.com/decolonizehealingjourney/?hl=en• Princess Manuel's Website: https://www.princessmanuel.com/• Soul Fire Farm Website: https://www.soulfirefarm.org/our-team/• LUYA Healing & Herbs Website: https://www.luyahealing.com/• Instagram @soulfirefarm: https://www.instagram.com/soulfirefarm/• Facebook @soulfirefarm: https://www.facebook.com/soulfirefarm/• YouTube @soulfirefarm: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCz3Bs3G0GkDR83JSxF4C5Eg• Support Soul Fire Farm here: https://linktr.ee/soul.fire.farm━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━🌻 About Lady Farmer:•Our Website•Follow @weareladyfarmer on Instagram•Join The Lady Farmer ALMANAC•Email us at thegooddirtpodcast@gmail.com or leave us a voicemail!

In a world where rampant consumerism leads to the exploitation of the Earth's resources, what solutions can we look to for a more sustainable economy? Today's guest, Emily Prieto, co-founder of Seeds of Tao with her husband Joshua Paul Prieto, proposes an alternate path: Regenerative Business. Rather than solely focusing on the bottom line, regenerative business aims to form a circular economy, where production and consumption involve sharing, reusing, and recycling current products as long as possible.As an artist, entrepreneur, regenerative land designer, brand strategist, marketer, and mother of four, Emily advises fellow business owners on how to increase their profits while giving back to the planet. She aims to completely rewrite entrepreneurial education, focusing on local bio-regional issues, because what works in Washington D.C may not work in Argentina.This discussion delves into how the current economy takes but fails to give back, the small changes we can make to be more responsible in our choice of businesses to work with and support, and what buzzwords to look out for in greenwashing marketing practices.Topics Discussed• Reishi Powder & Umami• Slow Living Through the Seasons Podcast• Regenerative Business & Scaling Impact• Building a Circular Economy• The Meaning Behind "Seeds of Tao"• Taoism• Emily's Journey to Panama• Permaculture Design & Natural Buildings• Bio-Regional Hub• Creating a Home Based on the Climate• Local Business• The Power of Reframing Language• Moving Away from the Bottom Line• Examples of Regenerative Businesses• Tech & Sustainability• Greenwashing and Voting with Your Dollars• The Types of Businesses Emily Works With• Small Businesses, Entrepreneurs, and Solopreneurs vs. Big Corporations• What Consumers Need to Know About Marketing• Permaculture Land Design• Emily and Her Family's Work in the Rainforest• Hope in the Face of Eco-Grief• Motherhood and Slow LivingEpisode Resources:•Our New Podcast: Slow Living Through the Seasons•Join The Good Dirt Supporters Membership Here!•Lao Tzu: Tao Te Ching: A Book about the Way and the Power of the Way•Allbirds & VivobarefootConnect with Emily Prieto:• Website: https://www.seedsoftao.com/about• Podcast: https://www.seedsoftao.com/blog• Instagram @seeds_of_tao : https://www.instagram.com/seeds_of_tao/• Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/seedsoftao/• Support Seeds of Tao: https://linktr.ee/seedsoftao━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━🌻 About Lady Farmer:•Our Website•Follow @weareladyfarmer on Instagram•Join The Lady Farmer ALMANAC•Email us at thegooddirtpodcast@gmail.com or leave us a voicemail!

What is our work as individuals in creating a more sustainable and regenerative future? Today's guest is Ian C Williams, author of  Soil & Spirit: Seeds of Purpose, Nature’s Insight & the Deep Work of Transformational Change.  In his book, Ian draws the link between the work of self-actualization and the solution to the present day crisis we face both for our planet and for the human race.Years of addiction and recovery forced Ian to relentlessly pursue self-awareness and inner work, guiding him to what he refers to as an “environmental awakening.” All of this, combined with a single mystical experience, led him to an essential discovery: the only way out is in. This conversation takes us on a deep dive into what our inner work as individuals might be, and how through self exploration and our reconnection with our place in the natural world, we can create cultural transformation from the inside out. In other words, the way to transform the world—is to transform ourselves.Topics Discussed• Self-Actualization• Substance Use Abuse, Addiction, and Recovery• The Impact of Losing a Beloved Pet• Focusing on the Process Over the Outcome• Climate Change & Soil• Diversity Creates Resilience• The Foundation of Spirituality• Internal, Social, External, and Spiritual Landscapes• Environmental Awakening• Reconnecting to Nature Through Experience• Falling in Love with the World• Saving Ourselves to Save the World• Teaching At-Risk Youth to Form Positive Experiences with Nature• Social Justice and Environmental Justice• Reconnecting Corporate America with the Earth• Hope for Humanity's Future• Mass Extinction Events & The Way The Earth Endures• How to Save Yourself on the Individual Basis• The Power of BreathEpisode Resources:•Soil & Spirit: Seeds of Purpose, Nature's Insight & the Deep Work of Transformational Change by Ian C.

Did you know that in this country, we have an area totaling the size of Washington State that is mowed lawns? Our guest is Owen Wormser, author of Lawns Into Meadows, who helps to weave people and the natural world back together through his work building regenerative landscapes. In this conversation, we discuss how meadows offer a compelling solution in a world where lawns have an enormous detrimental impact on our ecology and have wreaked havoc on our natural ecosystems. Owen was born and raised off the grid in rural Maine, surrounded by the natural world, with nature being his greatest teacher. Influenced by his study of horticulture, permaculture, organic agriculture, and ecology, Lawns Into Meadows is a how-to guide on growing your own wildflowers and native grasses. Owen offers approachable, simple steps for anyone and everyone to create sustainable and regenerative landscapes, starting with even a few square feet of land. Topics Discussed• Connection to the Natural World• Building Low-Maintenance Ecologically Focused Landscapes• How Lawns Are Damaging the Planet• Growing Up in Rural Maine & Off the Grid• Living a Simple Life in a World We've Made Difficult• Convenience & Its Impact on Lifestyle• What Counts Toward a Life Full of Satisfaction, Abundance, and Fulfillment?• Applying Academic Knowledge to Real World Practice• Why We Want to Turn Laws into Meadows• What Makes a Meadow a Meadow• Dealing with Home Owner Associations• Humans are Traditionalist• Lawns & Status• Steps to Start & Maintain a Meadow• What to Plant in a Meadow• The Lifelong Learning Process of Healing the Earth• How Stillness Sustains Us• Plants as Our BirthrightEpisode Resources:•If You Stop Mowing This May, Will Your Lawn Become a Meadow?•Owen Wormser Massachusetts Department of Higher Education•Lawns Into Meadows: Growing a Regenerative Landscape by Owen Wormser •Lawns Into Meadows, 2nd Edition: Growing a Regenerative Landscape by Owen Wormser•The Road Washes Out in Spring: A Poet's Memoir of Living Off the Grid by Baron Wormser•The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art Bobbie's Meadow Museum•Listen to The Good Dirt "The Urgent Need for Restorative Gardening with Mary Reynolds"•Listen to The Good Dirt "Seeking the Wisdom of the Earth with Maria Rodale, author of Love, Nature, Magic: Shamanic Journeys into the Heart of My Garden"Connect with Owen Wormser:• Website: Abound Design https://abounddesign.com/• Instagram: @lawns_into_meadows━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━🌻 About Lady Farmer:•Our Website•Follow @weareladyfarmer on Instagram•Join The Lady Farmer ALMANAC•Email us at thegooddirtpodcast@gmail.com or leave us a voicemail!

Welcome to Slow Living Through the Seasons!This is a new monthly podcast hosted by Mary Kingsley of The Good Dirt.Come join us for a monthly overview of how to embrace a slower, more sustainable lifestyle, tuning in to our connection with nature as we navigate our way through the year. Each month we'll be talking about gardening by the moon phases, what's up in the seasonal kitchen as it pertains to our food, whether its growing it, sourcing it, preserving or preparing it. We'll also be talking about how to navigate our cultural holidays and celebrations, and the nature celebrations that we want to integrate into our lives. We’ll be touching on topics that come up in our weekly interviews, and how to approach sustainability and low waste in a world that is very much the opposite of those things. We'll have lots to say about conscious consumerism, how to recognize greenwashing, adopting more regenerative lifestyle practices, how to demonstrate to family and friends that yes, you CAN do lots and lots of things without plastic and be the better for it, how to recharge your mind, body and spirit through more nature connection and SO MANY other things.The more we can bring our awareness to the energy shifts and gifts of each season, the more we can bring our daily lives more into sync with the rhythms of the earth. And in doing that we find ourselves making decisions and adapting our behavior in ways that foster more care for the earth—all with the intention of helping all of us cultivate more slow and intentional living.🌻 About Lady Farmer: Our Website Follow @weareladyfarmer on Instagram Join The Lady Farmer ALMANAC Email Mary at production@lady-farmer.com or leave us a voicemail!

To celebrate Plastic Free July, Mary and Emma are bringing back one of their favorite episodes on sustainable living: episode 86 with Danielle Alvarado which first aired on April 8th, 2022.  Learn to make space for what truly makes you happy using the power of refusal and conscious choice, with Danielle Alvarado of Sustainably Kind Living. Danielle’s educational online collective for the conscious consumer provides alternative resources to the harmful fast fashion, home, and beauty industries. Moved by the horrific stories she heard first hand from garment workers in Southeast Asia, Danielle found her calling by advocating for sustainable fashion and for a rejection of harmful and toxic industrial systems. After making the move to Italy to begin her family, Danielle found herself in a small Italian village where sustainable slow-living was simply the norm. Amazed by this new way of life and inspired by her experience in Asia, she began a blog to educate and advocate for a paradigm shift towards simple living. She now preaches about the power to bypass consumerism by asking, “What truly makes us happy?” and “What defines actual need?” Danielle knows that beneath all of the things we think we want, we are really longing for acceptance and connection back to each other and the Earth. She also knows that if we have the privilege to consider sustainable options, then we have the responsibility to select those options. Ultimately, she argues that slow living is, at its core, a call to show ourselves and the world greater empathy.  Please be advised, this episode contains mention of sexual assault and sexual violence. Topics Discussed• Sustainable Fashion • Consumer Culture • Fast Fashion • Child Labor • Social Inequality • Minimalism• Conscious Consumerism• Slow Fashion• Slow LivingEpisode Resources:•Elizabeth Kline Good Dirt Episode •Fashion Revolution •The True Cost Documentary •Wildling Shoes •Plastic Free July•Follow Plastic Free July on Instagram @plasticfreejulyConnect with Danielle Alvarado:• Website: www.sustainablykindliving.com• Instagram @sustainablykindliving and @sustykindliving • Facebook, Sustainably Kind Living• Facebook, Danielle Alvarado • Pinterest, Sustainably Kind Living━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━🌻 About Lady Farmer:•Our Website•Follow @weareladyfarmer on Instagram•Join The Lady Farmer ALMANAC•Email us at thegooddirtpodcast@gmail.com or leave us a voicemail!
