A PODCAST SERIES GUIDED BY NATURE

Lifeworlds is an intimate dialogue with our planet’s ecologies. We explore the mindsets, skills and actions required to partner with other forms of life, describing multiple ways to engage with the earth in this time of mutual healing.

Our guests are farmers, lawyers, scientists, investors, indigenous scholars, artists, and many more — what they share is a capacity to enter into close relationship with the lifeworlds of other beings.

This podcast exists because our culture is steeped in duality and increasing division, and coexistence begins to thrive when we learn to inhabit multiple perspectives, intimately feeling and empathizing with the lifeworlds of others. 

So let this spark your curiosity to discover nature’s astounding realms, and reconnect with the richness of life that surrounds us every minute.

We only exist because of the countless organisms and natural phenomena that make up the soul of the world. The aim of the podcast is to illuminate these lifeworlds, making them accessible, visible, and beautiful. By restoring our relationship with nature, and learning what it is to be nature, we begin to restore ourselves.

 

YOUR HOST,
ALEXA FIRMENICH

My work is guided by the boundless question of how to rekindle the innate biophilia of human beings. How do we begin to see everything in nature as vividly alive, intelligent, and related to us? I've tried to answer this from a range of perspectives, whether as a political scientist, sustainability consultant, journalist, investor, deep ecology facilitator, wilderness guide, essayist, and occasional poet.
