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.

Where Do Those Crappy Thoughts Come From Anyway?
We recently explored how we don't create our thoughts. We can't control them and we don't 'think' them up. So where do they come from?
Come and explore:
- Why do we have the thoughts we have?
- The visible and invisible influences which may inform our thoughts
- How seeing this is enormously helpful when it comes to our experience of anxiety, overthinking, worry, stress and all the others.
- Three pieces of Amazingly Good News
- Anxious Alice gets somewhat political
