In today’s episode I get to sit down and talk with my dear friend Mira Betz about her journey from a love of art and dance to a 20-plus-year career teaching and performing dance all over the world. We get into how her life has changed from Covid and a move from Oakland to the back country of New Mexico. The wealth of knowledge Mira has on the body and movement is valuable to human health on an individual and collective level. http://miramania.com https://www.instagram.com/mirabetz https://youtu.be/rV5dnPC8rAQ

In this episode I sit down with Bonnie Morse of Bonnie Bee & Company. We delve into her past experiences gardening, working in a family business, and working in Africa as a teenager. After a chance introduction to honey bees, she and her husband had their lives forever altered— the world of bees took over and changed everything. Bees challenged and shifted her views on previously held opinions. Bonnie’s energy and enthusiasm for honey bees and all of life’s systems and creatures is infectious. http://bonniebeecompany.com/wp/

The things that TJ is doing and will be doing look to be as intriguing as what he’s already done.
