Loving What's Left with Tessa Campisi


Listen Later

Hello! I have been away in the bush for three days and three nights with just a tarp, sleeping bag and water to my name. No tent, no pillow, no torch, NO BREAKFAST. Off the back of this deeply moving ritual (which I'll tell you about soon), I wanted to release this equally as moving and foresty interview with Tessa Campisi.

Tessa is a writer, poet, audio visual artist, activist and radio host who speaks with the timbre of an old growth tree and tells stories that will rustle your leaves. 

In this chat:

🌳 What it's like to live through a catastrophic flood

🌳 How anarchic networks can rise to meet a crisis, fast

🌳 What happens when forest conservationists are at loggerheads with traditional owners?

🌳 Strawman vs. steelman arguments

🌳 A new approach to deep listening to those you disagree with 

🌳 What traditional activism gets wrong and how to be a more effective change agent 

🌳 How and why to love the scraps of our beautiful, broken world
