In this third episode, we set out on a meaningful exploration of faith, rootedness, remembrance, and belonging, delving into the wild wisdom of the heart and finding solace in the simplicity of 'what is'. Through tender reflections on humility and surrender, we embrace the necessity of being moved by life's natural flows. Nurturing strong roots and seeking a sense of home within ourselves and the world, we explore authenticity and integration as a means of honouring the sacred in the mundane. Guided by the teachings of master plants, we unearth the vital importance of elemental harmony and the clarity needed to channel life's blessings through our being.

In this first episode of Wild Heart Revival, Bayo guides us into an exploration of a timely concept that he calls 'A Politics of Tenderness,' navigating the fluidity of identity and challenging societal norms. From radical accompaniment to the wild wisdom of tricksters, Bayo invites us to embrace an animist’s ethics along our mythic quest for deeper self-and-other understanding. The conversation also traverses the transformative territory of initiatory rites, the wisdom of death as an advisor, and the vibrant playfulness of creation. Through Bayo's lens, we contemplate 'Wild Heart Revival' as a dynamic space for questioning, repair, and forging new alliances beyond human-centric perspectives. Thematic show notes below.
