In Our Nature
Why do we feel so overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected and lost...and what does that have to do with what's happening on our planet?
This show explores the hidden connections and deeper patterns that are forming our inner struggles and the wider crises unfolding around us. From mental health to ecological collapse, productivity culture to planetary grief, from burnout to reconnection, join me to poke around in the stories, systems and patterns shaping this extraordinary time...
...and then let's riff on what becomes possible when we stop pretending it’s fine and feel the feels.
Your host is me: Siobhán Friel. I'm a mental health practitioner, a Work That Reconnects facilitator and I was probably a lavender plant in a past life.
This podcast offers a way to make sense of your inner and outer world, especially if you were shaped by capitalism (like me) and not by a lineage of ecological literacy, love and wisdom.
You haven't missed the boat. There are many boats and this is one. Get in.

You Are Not Your Thoughts...So Who Are You Then? (Part 2)
Welcome to part 2 of our exploration! Perhaps you may be on board with the idea that you are not your thoughts (part one is here if you missed it)...so who are you then?
Come and explore:
- Why, if we come to see we are not our thoughts, we instead think we are the things we DO: our behaviours, habits, actions and responses...
- ...But are we really though?
- If we are not the things that change, what or who are we?
- Are we even asking the right questions? Does it even matter? Why? Huh?
- And a little dash of woo, even suitable for those who don't like woo
