So Who Cares Anyway E40 Human Nature
In this episode, I’m joined by James Farrell, chartered environmentalist, accredited coach, and founder of both the Natural Coaching Company and the Human Nature Partnership. James brings a rare blend of ecological insight, systems thinking, and deep care for human wellbeing.
🌱 Together, we explore what it really means to reconnect with nature, not just through access, but through relationship.
James shares how nature connectedness shapes our mental health, our sense of purpose, our communities, and even our pro‑social and pro‑environmental behaviours.
🌍 We talk about:
• childhood memories and early threads of connection
• belonging, rootlessness, and finding place
• how ecosystems mirror human systems
• why nature is a missing piece in current policy conversations
🌿 James also lifts the lid on:
• green social prescribing
• biophilic design
• the government’s current review into mental health, ADHD and autism
• and why nature needs to be part of that conversation
This is a conversation about repair of ourselves, our systems, and our relationship with the natural world. And it begins with something simple: stepping outside and noticing
