On this episode I'm joined by Byron Ballard, author and co-founder of the Mother Grove Goddess Temple, and Amelia "Mia" Solesky, Mother Grove's Mycelium Mama, AKA volunteer coordinator, to discuss the environmental crisis in Western North Carolina in the wake of Hurricane Helene, and what a community-centered, Goddess-inspired response looks like.

During this special episode we discuss:

• The scope of devastation in Western North Carolina, and why it's important for outsiders to stay away from the area
• How the community, including the Mother Grove Goddess Temple is organizing itself and collaborating with other community members to provide grass roots support
• Why it's important to take our responses offline and physically into our communities, however we can
• The magic embedded in a warm hat we've made for someone vs. simply buying one on Amazon
• What a mycelium-inspired volunteer effort looks like, and the impact it can have
