Come Alive! The Living Spirit-fully! Guide to Thriving episodes

  • Design from Pattern to Details

    Thrivers! We discuss Permaculture Principle #7: Design from Pattern to Details. “Look at the big picture” as it applies to growing both in the garden and in life! We go deep talking about “the pattern is the pattern” in our lives and in our bodies, and how our pattern interacts with the Great Pattern.

    Keep exploring! We’ve added resource links in the show notes.

    • A Conversation with Yvonne Anderson [Bonus Episode]

      In Episode 6 we caught up with Yvonne Anderson of Santevia Water Systems. Our chat went way beyond Produce No Waste with a deep dive into a discussion about good, clean, alkaline water. Yvonne embodies many of the Permaculture Principles and the conversation is refreshing. We were so inspired by Yvonne and all the good Santevia is doing in the world, we wanted to share the full conversation so you can “drink it in”. Enjoy!

    • Produce No Waste

Not only is it a long one, we have to put a disclaimer on this episode because we talk s!@# in it … no really, we talk POOP!  Join us as we discuss Permaculture Principle #6: Produce No Waste and expand our view of waste from beyond simply “reduce, reuse, recycle” to see waste as an opportunity. “There’s gotta be a pony in here somewhere.” Listen to find out.

      Special thank you to Santevia Water Systems Inc. and Founder & CEO, Yvonne Anderson for our refreshing conversation and for sponsoring this episode! Please send them some love...
