After two seasons of growth and learning with Regenerative Spaces, it's time for a shift—starting with the name. I'm relaunching the podcast as Regenerative Mindset to better reflect its evolving focus. The new title highlights a key theme: that real climate change starts from within. Our conversations have always centered on regeneration and renewal, but now the urgency to contribute to a thriving future feels stronger than ever.
In the past seasons, I've spoken with trailblazers in local politics, regenerative ranching, and holistic medicine. Their insights have shaped my purpose and clarified my role in the changes needed. This season, launching Thursday, September 12, will continue to feature these inspiring voices—expanding to include those with national and international influence. Together, we’ll explore how regenerative thinking can guide us toward healing the earth and finding balance where there has been inequality.
Join me as we learn from these leaders and apply their wisdom to create a future rooted in care, renewal, and connection.

the right foods to maintain balance and health during the hottest months. We'll also

Eric Nagelmann plays with plants like an artist plays with paints. Now an acclaimed landscape designer whose vision has been incorporated into everything from humble gardens to palatial estates, Eric was once just a boy who fell in love with plants. As he puts it, there is something magical about laying the groundwork for life that takes unexpected twists and turns. Stacy has known Eric ever since crossing paths in a garden. They’ve since collaborated on projects at Santa Barbara High School and the world-renowned Lotusland, where Eric has been commissioned to design a cactus garden, palm garden, and insectary. Besides being a luminary in the world of landscape design, Eric is also profoundly committed to systemic change - since moving from Santa Barbara, he’s embarked on leading an LGBTQIA+ center for youth, inspired by his own experiences growing up queer in a world that demanded conformity. Tune in to this final episode of the season for a conversation with a little bit of everything: a lot of laughs, plenty of tears, and some heartfelt reflections on landscapes, passion, and healing.
Sara Miller McCune could not have anticipated that the small publishing house she started in 1965 would blossom into the world’s leading academic publisher decades later. She also could not have anticipated that this success would empower her to make real, material impact on the social issues faced by Californians. In this episode, Stacy invites her mentor Sara on, who just so happens to be the founder of Sage publishing and the beating heart of the McCune Foundation. Sara shares her journey all the way from youth advocacy to an illustrious career that challenged the gender norms of her day. Stacy and Sara also discuss the incredible efforts of the McCune foundation to confront the climate crisis, work towards gender equality in the United States, and mobilize grassroots organizations across California. Tune in for reflections on a life filled with trailblazing success and public service.
Joan Hartmann has made a career out of community advocacy. A Santa Barbara resident since 1999, she’s served as a professor in government and environmental studies at renowned institutions, spent six years advocating for children in the foster care system, and helped found the Southern California Wetlands Recovery Project - among countless other initiatives. Today, she serves as the supervisor for Santa Barbara County’s Third District, where she’s on the forefront of addressing some of the most pressing issues faced by the region. In this episode, Stacy sits down with Joan to talk about some of her initiatives in local government - everything from launching green classroom policies to incentivizing renewable energy development to working with the state to expand affordable housing. If there’s one takeaway from this episode, it’s that even though Santa Barbara has a lot on its plate, it also has a lot of people willing to fight for a just, regenerative community.
Mory Fontanez felt that something wasn’t quite right after an illustrious career in corporate America. For so much of her life, she had been living according to someone else’s rules, but her own inner conscience was always standing in the way of accepting this life. Seven years later, Mory has become a renowned purpose and intuition coach on the verge of publishing a book about inner wisdom and how you can (re)connect to it. Mory’s philosophy teaches us that limiting beliefs are our way of coping with difficulty, and while they keep us safe, they also keep us stagnant. The way forward is for us to trust ourselves, reconnect with our intuition, and align ourselves with a higher purpose - needless to say, Mory has had a monumental impact on Stacy’s trajectory. In this episode, the two unpack the language of intuition. Mory discusses the supreme importance of compassion, Stacy compares healing one’s soul to healing the land, and Mory even gets a chance to coach Stacy through a difficult question - live on air! Tune in for some of the soil that will grow your soul.
Santa Barbara local Patricia Selbert is something of a Renaissance woman: world citizen, internationally-competitive equestrian, award-winning author, PhD in somatics, and most recently - cattle rancher. Patricia co-founded and co-runs Las Cumbres Ranch in Santa Barbara County, a farm that upends almost all of our assumptions about what meat production and its connection to the greater environment can look like. Drawing from the same holistic management practices that Stacy uses, Patricia and her team raise a unique type of South African cattle - pedigree Bonsmara - particularly fit for dry grasslands. The goal is not only to sustain California’s environment amidst the climate crisis, but to restore it acre by acre, cow by cow. Tune in to hear more about Patricia’s global upbringing, the climate effects of corporate farming, and Patricia’s take on all the latest developments in ‘Big Beef.’
