Mermaid Musings: Diving Deep with Tara Coyote

In this episode of Mermaid Musings, host Tara Coyote dives deep with legendary ocean activist and underwater icon Hannah Fraser, also known as Hannah Mermaid. As the original modern-day mermaid, Hannah pioneered the mermaid movement before it became a trend - blending performance art, ocean advocacy, and soul-led storytelling into a powerful life path.

Tune in as Hannah shares:

• How she forged the path as the OG professional mermaid
• Her fearless work in ocean conservation
• The creation of Siren Sanctuary in Costa Rica, a healing retreat and training space
• Her thoughts on why a healthy ocean ecosystem is vital to human survival
• Insights on diving into your own mermaid path with intention and purpose

Hannah’s unique journey is filled with passion, purpose, and activism. She blends art and environmentalism like no other, using her platform to speak for the voiceless creatures of the sea, and encourages others to live in harmony with nature while boldly following their dreams.

This conversation is for ocean lovers, aspiring mermaids, conservationists, and anyone seeking inspiration from someone who lives deeply in alignment with their soul’s mission.

Dive into a powerful story of mermaids and ocean conservation, ‘Kaimana the Hawaiian Mermaid’ - a portion of the proceeds goes to support Happywhale, contributing to global whale conservation efforts (*I make a small commission when you order from this link!).

In this eye-opening episode of Mermaid Musings, ocean activist and mermaid Tara Coyote dives deep with renowned shark conservationist and wildlife advocate Jim Abernethy to expose the truth about one of the ocean’s most misunderstood creatures: sharks.

Jim reveals why sharks are vital to the health of our oceans, how their role as the “lungs of the planet” keeps marine ecosystems in balance, and why the fear-fueled myths popularized by movies like Jaws are dangerously misleading.

Despite their shy nature, sharks are facing extinction - up to 150 million sharks are killed each year, primarily for food and cosmetic purposes, while only an average of 6 human deaths are attributed to sharks annually. Jim challenges the narrative and shares his personal experiences swimming with sharks, advocating for their protection, and empowering others to help save them.

In the premiere episode of Mermaid Musings, Tara Coyote - mermaid, author, cancer thriver, and ocean activist - dives deep into a powerful conversation with her brother, Ted Cheeseman, a marine biologist, scientist, and the founder of Happywhale. 

Ted is a world leader in whale research, revolutionizing how we track and understand whales using innovative tail recognition software. His work helps researchers across the globe monitor whale populations and advocate for the protection of our oceans.

Together, Tara and Ted discuss:

• The magic and intelligence of humpback and sperm whales
• The dangers whales face today, including plastic pollution and ocean noise
• The importance of maintaining a healthy marine ecosystem
• Their shared upbringing by environmentalist parents, who ran Cheesemans' Ecology Safaris 

Tara’s children’s book, Kaimana the Hawaiian Mermaid, inspired by a tragic but true event: a sperm whale that washed up ashore on Kaua’i due to garbage ingestion and how a group of mermaids made a positive impact for the Earth and all of humanity.

A portion of the proceeds from ‘Kaimana the Hawaiian Mermaid’ goes to support Happywhale, contributing to global whale conservation efforts (*I make a small commission when you order from this link!).

Whether you’re a nature lover, an advocate for the planet, or simply curious about these gentle giants of the sea - this episode is a must-listen. Don’t forget to subscribe and join Tara’s mailing list to stay updated on new episodes and ocean-loving adventures.
