The Wild Minds Podcast

Scientific Enough to Wonder


Listen Later

In this episode of Wild Minds, I'm exploring what it’s like to have big questions that don’t always fit into your job title. Whether you’re a teacher, therapist, or just someone who feels things deeply, this conversation is about the risk, and importance, of staying open, curious, and honest in times of change.

Topics include:

  • What it feels like to hide parts of yourself in professional spaces
  • The fear of sounding “too out there” or being seen as unprofessional
  • Why curiosity and wonder matter more than ever, especially in helping roles
  • How feelings and intuition often get pushed aside—even though they guide so much of our real understanding
  • A look at where our sense of mind and consciousness might actually come from
  • How Indigenous wisdom and quantum science both challenge the idea that we’re separate from nature
  • What happens in our body when we feel awe or connection
  • Why being open-minded isn’t soft or silly—it’s essential for making sense of the world
