Rooted In Nature is a podcast series that explores the powerful connection between nature, personal growth, and human development. Across four episodes, we dive into how nature shapes our minds, emotions, and identities—from the ways childhood experiences outdoors impact mental health and creativity, to the ongoing dance between nature, nurture, and who we become.Hosted by Mallory, Jacky, Donna, and Hengzhi, each episode offers a unique perspective: blending personal stories, expert research, real-world examples, and thoughtful reflection. Along the way, we’ll challenge assumptions about what development really looks like and uncover how staying rooted in nature helps us grow into who we are meant to be.Whether you’re reflecting on your own childhood, curious about the science of well-being, or just looking for a reason to step outside, Rooted In Nature invites you to slow down, question, and reconnect—with nature, and with yourself.
