In this enlightening episode, Kerry explores the intricate and often overlooked truth that all plants and fungi are conscious, living beings. She challenges the common belief that consciousness is exclusive to beings with complex nervous systems, instead inviting a more inclusive understanding of sentience—one that acknowledges the wisdom and intelligence present in the natural world.

Kerry shares insights on how plants and fungi communicate, guide, and serve as allies in the human journey, encouraging listeners to expand their perspectives and deepen their relationship with the more-than-human world.

This episode is an invitation to listen, respect, and recognize the profound interconnectedness between all living beings—and to explore the possibility the nature is speaking to us, if only we learn how to listen.

In this episode, Kerry dives into the intrinsic fears that arise with vulnerability, especially when it comes to being seen—physically, emotionally, and energetically. She explores the deep-rooted fear of judgment that so many women carry and how it can hold us back from fully embracing our authentic selves.

Through personal reflections, Kerry reveals that even those who hold space for others still navigate their own fears—proving that vulnerability is a shared human experience rather than something to overcome alone. This conversation is a gentle invitation to sit with your fears, acknowledge them, and recognize that they are not barriers, but pathways to deeper healing and self-acceptance.

You are not alone in this journey. We are all walking it together.
