What do I do? How do I declutter? Mushrooms? Is that a solution? And what about our Oceans? A spotlight on some of humanities modern issues.

Two Natural Ladies enquire into making decisions and decision fatigue. Someone thinks like Vicki? Decluttering seems too hard and going through it means so many decisions. Jo suggests decluttering could be an adventure in discovering treasures from years ago.

We can reduce what we have and discover what we can reuse. This leads into an unexpected Segway topic - Plastic eating Mushrooms – solving humanities plastic problem – which is definitely a clutter problem as well as an eco-disaster! Jo & Vicki give some stats and then chat about the clutter in the ocean.

Mass production of plastic began in the 1950’s. Here are some stats:

· 9 billion tons of plastic has been produced

· Plastic takes more than 400 years to degrade.

· Only 9 percent is recycled and

· Only 12 percent has been incinerated

Plastic pollution is not the biggest problem. Fishing nets are almost 50% of the pollution in our water ways.

93% of our CO2 is stored in our Oceans. It’s time to put the spotlight on the Ocean and keep it there until we clean it up! And we can bypass the fish and eat the algae that give us the fatty acids. AND Damon Gameau is warning against the salmon farms that are having a toxic impact on the pristine waterways in Tasmania and affecting the resident's way of life.

We do have the solutions to regenerate our system! One of these solutions is 4 Oceans who are cleaning the oceans one pound at a time. Two Natural Ladies are in complete agreement with the 4Oceans comments: ‘Small acts add up, which means every piece of single-use plastic you refuse, every habit you change, and every pound you pull makes a difference.’ #Letsdoit321

Two Natural Ladies share and discuss the advantages of the Doughnut economy. Jo & Vicki first became aware of this through Damon Gameau’s film 2040. Since then they have continued to research the benefits for everyone and everything on our Earth

“The Doughnut offers a vision of what it means for humanity to thrive in the 21st century - and Doughnut Economics explores the mindset and ways of thinking needed to get us there.

Kate Raworth and her book Doughnut Economics: seven ways to think like a 21st century economist, explores the economic thinking needed to bring humanity into the Doughnut, drawing together insights from diverse economic perspectives in a way that everyone can understand. The book soon became an international bestseller and has now been translated into over 20 languages.

Think of it as a compass for human prosperity in the 21st century, with the aim of meeting the needs of all people within the means of the living planet.”

There is always a way and through collaboration we can find the way. Collectively we have the answer.

“Sometimes those that try to bring you down don’t realise you are part of the reason they are still standing” Anna Idibia. We are not present to how reliant and interconnected we are.

And Two Natural Ladies are here holding the space and letting people know there is an answer - showing us all what’s possible.

JO starts the conversation with some information from Brene Brown talking about Vulnerability and Connection

We don’t want to feel vulnerable yet it is a great connector. In order to connect we have to be seen, really seen - be vulnerable

Brene Brown collated 6 years of data with people’s stories and journals regarding shame. Those who have a sense of worthiness have a strong sense of belonging because they believe they are worthy. That belief is the only difference between those who do have a strong sense of love & belonging and those that don’t

What did those people who felt worthy have in common?

· Courage: were willing to share their story and be imperfect

· Compassion with self and others

· Authenticity leading to connection

· Vulnerability- the Birthplace of joy and creativity

Two Natural Ladies love peoples stories – there is a realism about it and it enables us to feel closer to people than being told what to do. Being willing to share can open up our worlds. There are extraordinary results. Unexpected things happen.

Jo & Vicki share their stories from ‘Landmark Forum’ days and how being vulnerable actually had them come closer to the people in the room. Even though they felt uncomfortable and even stupid that’s not how others saw them.

‘We numb vulnerability through eating, drinking and taking drugs - we are a society of addicts

When you numb one part- being vulnerable -it numbs the other parts of joy, love and laughter

Vicki shares some words from the book Vive by Debra Pascoe: Mental Stamina, physical stamina. Unstoppable days. Doing the smallest things on the days of struggle can make such a difference.

Fighting with ourselves in getting out of bed: Going for a walk can shift the energy. – taking those steps forward. Allow ourselves to have time to rest and recuperate. Do I need to have some time off? Or are we listening to the negative conversation?

Knowing our happiness triggers: a hug, clean sheets, fragrances, acts of kindness, dancing, walking

This is a wonderful podcast with great conversations for everyone. 😁

“Fitness isn’t a punishment; it’s a blessing. Nutrition isn’t restrictive; it’s healing. Health isn’t a one- size- fits- all thing and may not look the same for everyone, but it’s something worth fighting for” ~ Unknown

The main thing is to move your body! Two Natural Ladies discuss the many ways we can get our exercise:

Yoga, walking, gym, incidental; gardening – the list is endless

Jo reads a beautiful poem by Hollie Holden – accepting who we are 💜

"Today I asked my body what she needed,

Which is a big deal

Considering my journey of

Not Really Asking That Much.

I thought she might need more water.

Or protein.

Or greens.

Or yoga.

Or supplements.

Or movement.

But as I stood in the shower

Reflecting on her stretch marks,

Her roundness where I would like flatness,

Her softness where I would like firmness,

All those conditioned wishes

That form a bundle of

Never-Quite-Right-Ness,

She whispered very gently:

Could you just love me like this?"

Comparing ourselves with others. Join in with others.

Blue Zones: it’s all about community. The people who live the longest are connected. All ages being together. THIS IS WHAT WORKS! The story of the elderly gentlemen and his garden: his joy for his garden and then sharing the food with his community

Our struggles and preconceived ideas that everyone over there is having a great time while we are suffering. This is particularly true during our teenage years and all of us deal with some form of conversation where others are doing better than us

Outward expressions can be different, some perform while others withdrew.

Two Natural Ladies discuss what they did on the weekend-

Vicki’s jaunt to Ripponlea and her on air discussion on Southern FM 88.3 with some of the other radio personalities. They talked gardening, cooking and the things Vicki doesn’t do 😂 Vicki did some bird watching & Gin tasting – not expected but there it was. A discussion ensued on the experience of listening for the birds and watching their antics

Sacred Space with our grandchildren. Going away: Jo shared her weekend away with her grandson Jacob. Phillip Island and Dromana. Their special walk on the beach arm in arm. The shared experience of walking the beach and ‘feeling’ the ocean. Meditative and relaxing. Giving them both a feeling of joy.

Moving past a problem– a problem shared is a problem halved

BAD NEWS: Jo shares her annoyance about major issues in the world being given a 5 second time slot between the weather and the cricket scores.

Vicki discusses the documentary “Seaspiracy”. The issue of the fishing industry. Dragging huge nets on the seabeds destroying everything in its path. The issues in the ocean are so much bigger thank on land partly because we don’t see so we are less aware of what is going on. What is the answer? Stop eating fish?

Two Natural Ladies recommend everyone watch the show: knowledge is power

Two Natural Ladies start with a celebration of Dolphin Day 🐬🐬

Jo shares her journey watching of the TV show, ‘Old People’s home for 4 year olds’. The amazing results being seen in just two weeks. The noticeable difference with most of the elderly and the four year olds.

The show is looking at Intergenerational support and helping the elderly stay young for longer and the young to create caring and empathy  As we see in small communities, village life, all ages mix. A true community.

In the show the elderly people are being physically and mentally pushed AND having fun. The connections being made between the two age groups is quite extraordinary. 💜

Vicki and Jo then discuss segregating our children from an early age. Putting kids in a grade with just one age group. Is this normal? Natural? Children in multi age group settings learn leadership and many other skills

As a young mum we can feel isolated and a heavy burden of responsibility .With a more integrated community there is support and everyone is involved – it’s what works!

Trying to get a school to create a program can be difficult -When it’s unusual it’s hard to implement, when it’s normal its normal!

This leads to a discussion about older people becoming more regimented with time AND Jo shares her parents groovy past with parties every weekend.

The extraordinary in the ordinary

Two Natural Ladies have a lively discussion around creation, judgement and healing. They start by talking about The Lotus League and the unique offering they are giving to women

While we are creating relationships we can be creating the business of our dreams in the conversations. We can just be us. We don’t have to be polished speakers and even if we may occur as ordinary, we are extraordinary.

Sometimes we feel misunderstood and misinterpreted and harshly judged and then we can question ourselves. And yet we know who we are if we allow ourselves to be who we are and be in our power miracles occur.

This leads onto to Jo & Vicki sharing Lynne McTaggart’s latest discoveries:

“I’ve been studying the power of thoughts for nearly 20 years, and I’ve discovered one unsettling truth: your thoughts are not locked inside your head but are being broadcasted 24/7 – and have a powerful effect on others, particularly those who are battling medical conditions.”

Lynne talks about our judgments doubts and how every statement we make can affect the healing ability of our friends and family and for those who are professional counsellors, our clients. “As scientific evidence has shown, just one disagreement can delay wound healing by an entire 24 hours. So imagine the effect of just one ill-timed thought by you, particularly as a dearly trusted therapist.

But there’s a flip side here.

Imagine the effect of sending out positive and loving intentions in addition to giving your patients medicine or treatment.”
