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.

“We Are Not Our Thinking” with Gabi Fisher
I can’t wait to share a conversation I had with Gabi Fisher in this episode.
Gabi is a wife, full-time mother to her one-year-old daughter, and part-time teacher and coach. She shares the spiritual paradigm of mental health and well-being that transformed her life from depressed and anxious to happy and thriving.
She’s a warm, kind, funny and smart human and I loved hanging out with her!
Please join us to explore:
- Gabi’s story around depression, anxiety and religion
- How understanding the nature of thoughts and feelings impacts our relationships
- What is a deep feeling and how can we connect with it?
- Why tools, strategies and techniques can get in the way of our freedom of mind
- What innate health means, and how we each have it
- …and lots of laughs, stories, wisdom and a ride to Costa Rica on a magic carpet
Gabi is a beautiful writer and you can read her blog on her website or follow her on Instagram here.
