Show Notes
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
