Back in late August, I sat down to have a flowing, juicy conversation with the wise, down-to-Earth Tamy Roloff (herbal tea seller, coach, midwife, mother and grandmother) around aliveness and aging; and more specifically the question: is it inevitable that we settle in to die with little excitement or joy for the future beyond retirement prospects?

Along the way, we also explore:

• spirituality;
• plants as friends;
• ancestral ways and animism;
• women’s life cycles and seasons;
• how being a woman is often framed as a negative thing and other ways we might be able see it;
• pain avoidance, mindset, and how that affects our ability to find pleasure and our own rhythms;
• community and living counter-culturally;
• travel and how it opens us to other ways of seeing ourselves and the world;
• possible benefits to loneliness;
• self-trust;

…and more.

Join us around the fire? You’re most welcome here.
