Ever felt like a stranger in the natural world, wondering why humans seem to be the only species that doesn't "fit" into our habitat? In this episode of the Nature Connection Podcast, host Sanne sits down with storyteller and author Elspeth Hay to unravel the ancient, joyful mystery of our relationship with the living world. Forget the narrative that humans are inherently "born bad" for the environment; instead, discover how we were once -and can be again- a keystone species that helps forests thrive through meaningful, reciprocal interaction. From the forgotten history of the "nut age" and the "ancestral trauma" of the European enclosures to the hidden superfood potential of the humble acorn, this conversation is a powerful invitation to reclaim your place in the "more than human world".
