#13 - My mom talks to me about winter wildlife

Listen in for a chat with my mom, Erin, who works as an environmental educator as she fascinates us with facts and information about wildlife native to the wonderful midwest.

#12 - Change is scary! AAAHH!!

I had an episode recently. Decided to make it into an actual episode. Have you ever had a bought of indecision? Had to choose between job offers? Had to face change? Thought that if only you could learn to manage stress better, maybe stress would go away entirely? Me too. In this episode, I tell you about what I've been learning recently from a moment of indecision regarding a job change.

#11 - My mom talks to me about environmental education

Today I introduce you to my mom, who works as a Park Naturalist. She tells us about what the position is like, its challenges and rewards, what she has learned from it, and what she'd like you to know about the position and her journey. And because I love to ask about the deeper questions, we talk about the larger implications of this kind of work and the importance of positive experiences with nature.

#10 - Digital Minimalism

So... I guess now being offline and unplugged is trendy. I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT! Let's talk about where this is coming from and why it's more than a trend... it's a lifestyle! It's a philosophy! How can we practice it? This episode is loosely inspired by ideas covered in the book I'm currently reading... Digital Minimalism: Choosing a Focused Life in a Noisy World by Cal Newport, [https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/40672036-digital-minimalism] which provides details on this philosophy and approach to technology. I highly recommend reading this book! You can listen to the audiobook in less than one full work day!
