For centuries, members of the B’doul Bedouin tribe lived in the caves around the ancient city of Petra, Jordan. Then, in the 1980s, the government forced the tribe to move in the name of preserving the geological site for tourists. But if the residents are forced to leave, and if their heritage has been permanently changed, then what exactly is being preserved? Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices…

139: Ms Thrifty Rose's ThriftNics with Alyce Rose 38:40

vor 1 day38:40

38:40

I briefly met Alyce Rose/AKA Ms Thrifty Rose/AKA Auntie Outside this January at Podfest, and I saw a post of hers where she advertised her 1st Wednesday Thrift Nic, and my podcaster radar alarm sounded - I had to hear more about this thrifting business - and boy did I! Alyce is CONNECTED, and she has an energy that you just want to be around - and she makes things happen! I just love Alyce's attitude that she doesn't worry about what others think. Her message she wants you to remember her for: "Do YOU your Way." Alyce shares her journey of creating her businesses, Ms. Thrifty Rose and Auntie Outside, and how they are interconnected. She discusses her approach to live sales, the creation of Thrift Nic events in Jacksonville, FL, and her philosophy on sustainability and confidence. Alyce also touches on her podcast, Auntie Outside, which addresses important community topics. Throughout the conversation, we emphasize the importance of focusing on oneself, embracing community, and the joy of giving items a second life. This was a super fun conversation, and it was so great to hear how much thrifting is embraced in the Jacksonville area! You can send me messages(this is new!)!

138: Sustainable Travel with the Travel Devil, Clara Francken 46:48

I found Clara Franken in a podcast newsletter, and started listening that morning to her podcast, Travel Devil, and the first episode I listened to was about the Trash Traveler; a man who travels and brings attention to himself by cleaning up the area, and I knew I wanted to hear all about what else she's learned hosting a podcast all about sustainable travel. Clara lives in Germany, but is from Belgium, so she travels a lot, but she mostly travels by train, or "slow" travel, as she calls it. And she explains why. And she really walks the walk, and it shows, as the week prior to this episode airing, she's featured on a billboard at the train station in Leipzig! (she has yet to see it with her own eyes - not for lack of trying - but her friend has seen it!) I love Clara's Instagram reels - she's very committed to sustainability, and she's also very entertaining! It was fun hearing how creative people are getting with their traveling from her.

Bonus! Podcasthon Episode: Growing to Give with Friends 38:12

vor 13 Tagen38:12

38:12

Y'all, this is very personal, and I'm so happy to have some of my closest friends join me to chat up our special place, Growing to Give. Growing to Give is a climate-friendly, volunteer-driven, nonprofit farming operation in Brunswick, Maine, that grows certified-organic vegetables for donation. I invited my friends Karin Sorensen, Robin Knight and Mary Aveno to help me to chat up our favorite non-profit where we all had the honor of helping to grow organic produce to donate to local food pantries to offer some highly nutritious produce to our less food secure neighbors. We all met there, and became fast friends, and more like family in the same purpose. We missed each other when we were absent, and celebrated every day we were together, and we did some great work (they still do, but Karin and I moved away), and have helped to grow and donate over 100,000 lbs of food! There are several other volunteers at Growing to Give - too many to gather for an episode and everyone get a word in, but that's how the magic happens. Growing to Give began as a dream of property owners Patty Carton and John Newlin in 2015, and 2017 was the first year officially growing, and Robin and I were the first 2 volunteers with Theda, the OG Farm Manager, with 1 Rimol greenhouse, and now it's a well-oiled machine of hundreds of volunteers annually, several hoop houses for growing, as well as farm skills workshops, elderberry workshops, and an annual Farmyard Jam fundraiser. It's a very special place of fun, healing and family. Please check out Growing to Give here: https://growingtogive.farm/ They're on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/growingtogivemaine/?hl=en And on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/GrowingtoGive/ You can register as a volunteer, join the board, see upcoming events, sign up to receive the newsletter, or donate to this special cause.

137: Green Burials with Melissa Meadow, The Modern Mortician 1:06:08

vor 15 Tagen1:06:08

1:06:08

I have to say, I was so impressed with myself for getting through this conversation with sensation in my toes - I'm a total baby talking about blood and stuff, and I expected to have a hard time with it, but I was too interested to get queasy, I guess. Even the 2nd time listening to edit, it was still so fascinating! Feeling very lucky that Melissa Meadow crossed my Instagram feed. This opened my eyes to a ton of new information that's available. Melissa Meadow started her career early, and has been in the funeral home business since she was very young, evolved into being a mortician, and has tons of wisdom to share that we might not know about. I had only heard the phrase green burial in the last few months - let alone water cremation and others... AND I thought that cremation was more environmentally friendly than burying a whole body, because it took up more space - boy was I wrong about that! This is why I wanted to have Melissa on the podcast; in her words: "There are options that are better for the environment and align with those wanting transparency and options." I love that she shared so many new options! Have you already made plans for when you die? I had when my mom passed away, but that was in Maine, where I don't live anymore, so I have to plan again- and now I have more information to make a more informed decision. It may sound morbid, but it's an important topic, I think. The more you have planned out, the less traumatic your death will be - speaking from some experience... I hope you take some good info away from this conversation - I know I did! You can find Melissa at her website https://www.themodernmortician.com/ (there are so many helpful resources here!) Her Instagram page, where I found her, is both fascinating and entertaining: https://www.instagram.com/the_modern_mortician She's also on TikTok here: https://www.tiktok.com/@the_modern_mortician And lastly on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/@The_Modern_Mortician You can send me messages(this is new!)!

136: Learning About Solar Thermal with Dan Razumovsky 1:04:47

Do you know about Solar Thermal energy?? I didn't, either; I've heard of solar panels, solar farms, Community Solar... but not solar thermal. Enter Dan Razumovski, of Sun Catch Solar Thermal, out of Colorado! This might be more of a business or farm purchase- they're pricy, and take up a good amount of space, but it's a newer technology- and it's very cool! It stores electricity, so that if power goes out, you can still power your home for a week! If you're interested in solar thermal, though, Dan's company will help you to fill out grant applications and apply for tax breaks for updating, which, I could be wrong, but I haven't heard that many companies offer this service. Sun Catch website to learn more is here: https://sun-catch.com/ Here's a video from the company that shows the solar thermal product: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkw2d-Sw4Uc They're on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/suncatchltd/ And on Linkedin here: https://www.linkedin.com/company/suncatch-ltd/ You can send me messages(this is new!)!

I met Christopher Reynolds through Podmatch, and, as I usually do, I followed him on Instagram and TikTok to see what he's about, and his message is so beautiful. His stories are meaningful and deep, and you can't help but be drawn in and want to support whatever he's putting out. Christopher is a high-end landscape designer, and he discovered for himself what a powerful addition native plants are to his design. He encourages everyone to plant natives wherever we can - just add a few even, to add biodiversity to our area. He talks about ways that adding native plants will improve the land, and bring in beneficial insects and birds, and other critters, and the magnitude of those positive changes. All from just planting a few native plants! A small effort for huge and lasting results! He also talks about the personal project he's working on, Tierra Linda Park, that he's experimenting and bringing back to life using natives, and the results already are truly awesome! Christopher's own words of what he wants you to take away from this conversation from his guest form: "The solutions to many of our big problems are simple and fast in the scheme of things. We can all participate at whatever level we can and all acts, tiny and grand, contribute. If you know how easy it is, then you can't help but want to take action."

Crystal McLain and I go back a few years, and she's been a great source of much needed "woo" in my world, and that has saved my bacon what feels like a million times. So I'm sharing one of my personal sustainability resources here... Crystal is a licensed Massage Therapist slash podcaster - her podcast has the same title as this episode. Her episodes are easy to listen to and forgiving. And I'll say it until I die, she has the cutest giggle. I personally am afraid of being seen as an imposter of someone who has their crap together, but she has magical powers and can see right through it. She's kind and has gentle suggestions to help. You'll see! I've shared her reels on Instagram several times, because they are exactly what I needed to hear, hoping it would reach someone else, too. Do you have a "woo" person, or practice in your life, to keep yourself in check so you can keep on keepin' on? Send me a message and let me know what/who yours is. Feel free to let Crystal know, too - she'd love it! Crystal's message she wants you to leave with: "YOU have the power to create a healthier, empowered, and more fulfilling human experience."

Anjel B Hartwell and I are talking about planning a sustainable business, and no one better for this conversation than the Wealthy Life Mentor! Anjel has had ALL the experiences in business, and she uses them to make her the mentor that she is. She tells us how she started and about choices she made that weren't ideal, but still shaped her and added to her understanding. And that brings the wisdom to guide others. Anjel is a member of the New England Podcasters Group - that's how I got to know her. She currently is the host of 2 podcasts: Wickedly Smart Women and Leading Visionaries. She was one of the first, if not the first person to sell a podcast, showing just how badass she is. She talks about leveraging virtual speaking engagements to gain exposure to millions and opportunities to earn money. She also is a mom and forager and cooks up a storm, and has stories to share about all. I just loved Anjel's message she wanted you to remember from our talk: "Getting support for building the business you are dreaming of is essential." I hope you enjoy this conversation - I sure did!

I really enjoyed learning about Cleaner Safer Water from Mark Miller, the CEO and Founder of this affordable, lifetime water filtration system. It just makes sense to have something like this in case of power outage. I'm still in awe of not having to buy filters for it ever, AND that it can provider water for up to 300 people! 1 system could take care of a whole neighborhood! Mark tells us all about the system, and gives some examples of how it works, and how helpful it has been for people who have it. These are Mark's words: "There is now a guaranteed way for you to have pure water for life. Enough for you, your family, and up to 300 other people in any emergency no matter how long it lasts. Even if there is no electricity. And a way to help the ecosystem by drastically reducing the number of plastic water bottles. You can now have better health with pure water for life and always be prepared for any emergency." You know I'm all about the reducing plastic water bottles part; but providing water to 300 neighbors is pretty attractive! Learn all about Safer Cleaner Water by listening!

I had so much fun talking with Matthew Lesko! He's encouraging people to apply for grants to fund big ticket upgrades, updates, etc. He says "the money's there; YOU might as well have it!" He worked for 50 years for the wealthy, finding them more money, but now is helping the underdog to get ahead, because he can. He says it doesn't pay him a lot, but he actually feels good about his work now. Matthew is a trip! He has more energy than 5 people - he hosts almost daily a live chat with up to 15,000 people looking for ways to find funding for projects and life. He sometimes doesn't sound very serious, but then he inserts a phrase like "it makes you human, and it's hard to flunk a human; it's easy to flunk a robot." I'm so happy to have found him so he can share his tips with you!

Merrymeeting Food Council reached out to me to ask if we could help to get the word out about their Farm Skills Program, because the deadline to apply for the next cohort is this Saturday, February 1. If you miss this cohort, they will still take applications for the next. Maine has set a BIG goal of eliminating food insecurity by 2030 (FIVE YEARS), and their plan includes growing more locally. Have you thought about farming at all, or gardening large scale? This is an incredible opportunity in my home state of Maine, and I'm going to be looking into where else this might be an option, because we need more farmers - we're losing them at an alarming rate, and with education from organizations like Merrymeeting Food Council, people can be set up for success! Please look into whether you have something like a Farm Skills Program near you, or take a Master Gardener Class, check out gardening books or classes, or volunteer at a farm near you for experience - knowing where our food comes from is becoming more important every day. This conversation is so informative and excited for the next generation of farmers in Maine. Maybe you could help your area (if you're not in Maine) organize a Farm Skills Program!

129: Real Soil Talk with Seb Jagoe 50:57

vor 10 weeks50:57

50:57

The algorithm was just right not too long ago that I happened upon Seb Jagoe's Instagram reel and became obsessed with his excitement and vast knowledge about soil and growing. It's always a little nerve wracking to reach out cold to a stranger, but this time, at least, Seb was just so gracious to talk with me and share this message. I've had many conversations about soil health on the podcast, but Seb's energy alone is exciting, and different. He talks about the history of soil health, and also when he first started talking about soil. We also discuss the importance of taking care of our soil; how it's not a thing - it's a process. He talks a. lot about Indigenous Knowledge, and food forests, and how the white men took food forests over from the Native Americans and depleted them with so many of our current practices (weed and pest control, monocropping, to name a couple). He has big plans to educate as many people as possible through his social media videos to share his passion for nutrient dense foods and attracting pollinators - all without fertilizers and pest control - because healthy soil and plants will ward off pests naturally! Seb asks that we consider quality over convenience whenever possible. The waste from overconsumption and cheap junk is poisoning our water and soil currently. He said when asked what the word sustainability means to him that sustainability isn't good enough - and he's not wrong! Who wants things to continue as they are, after all? Don't we want better? If not for ourselves, for the next generation? What an enlightening conversation! Listen here! You can find Seb at his website here: https://solarity.farm His Instagram is here: https://www.instagram.com/solarity.acres/ Check out all of Seb's video work on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@solarityacres And he's on TikTok, too: https://www.tiktok.com/@solarity.acres You can send me messages(this is new!)!

128: Angela Hollowell: Businesses Supporting Community 44:33

vor 11 weeks44:33

44:33

I've been following Angela Hollowell for a couple of years now on Linkedin, and admiring all that she's doing with her podcast Honey and Hustle, and her writing and now documentary film making. When she said she's joined a new group that she's excited about and asked if anyone wanted to hear about it, I saw my chance and said YES PLEASE! She recently joined Dogwood Alliance - info is below: Dogwood Alliance is an environmental nonprofit organization based in Asheville, North Carolina . The group works to achieve broad-based support to end unsustainable forestry practices in the region. They focus in the marketplace to move large paper producers and customers away from sourcing their paper from endangered forests and towards increasing the use of post-consumer recycled fiber and other environmentally-friendly alternatives. Angela's company Rootful Media is committed to inclusive visual storytelling that promotes community-building, meaningful conversations, exceeded fundraising goals, and lasting change. Rootful Media works with regional organizations and national enterprises to amplify diverse groups and voices. I was able to watch the trailer on zoom of the documentary Trail Therapy, which is wonderful - telling the story of Sharon, a therapist who offers sessions while walking outside, as opposed to in a sterile room, to breathe in the fresh air and the scenery. She's also working on, or finishing up now, another documentary about forever chemicals that I'm really interested to learn more about. And her podcast Honey and Hustle is SO good! She focuses on business owners in NC that are doing great things - always an engaging conversation!

Bronwyn Holm is an international speaker and spokesperson for Earth Food, a product of living microbiomes to feed our soil, and at the same time battle food insecurity and turn our health issues around. HOW, you ask? Bron talks at length of the benefits of Earth Food in this conversation, and she is SO proud of its capabilities, and rightfully so! She is sharing her message of saving our soil, which will raise the nutritional value of the food that we buy and make - even as a lazy farmHER (Bron's term)! Earth Food has been in Bron's family for decades. She went off after school to do other business ventures, but came back to embrace EarthFood and bring it forward to the masses. in her own words (in her brochure) " It took 27 years perfecting Earthfood.
