There is no byte-sized episode this week because I really feel like all of you must listen to this one in it's entirety. xoxo

The work that Reverend Jaime is doing is so needed and so essential right now, because it not only speaks to those animals and insects that she advocates for, it also can apply to the land that we walk upon. With the government attempting to sell our public lands to the highest bidder, it is about time that we begin to look around and realize that everything around us has spirit, is sacred, and needs us to advocate for it's existence! And that is what my friend Rev. Jaime is doing through her work as the "Creature Preacher" with her voice, with her books, with her words...she is urging us all to do better, but ALSO, to SEE that all life, that everything around us, deserves respect, honor and a listening ear. Because that life is endlessly trying to engage with us, to enter into conversation with us, and brings us along, as partners, to this magical and mysterious dance that is unfolding around us!
