In Our Nature
Absolutely everything is interconnected in astonishing dynamic ways that we are only beginning to understand, including our mental and planetary wellbeing.
The In Our Nature explores these connections, along with the unseen but profoundly influential currents, systems, cycles, patterns, stories, and constructs that shape both our inner lives and the world around us.
Why are we the way we are? Why are we treating the world and each other in the ways we do? Why do we feel so rubbish? Is this in our nature? What's going on?
Join me, Siobhán Friel, your host and fellow wanderer, as we curiously fondle the places where environmental, societal, historical, ecological and mythological contexts meet and mingle.
The In Our Nature pod wants to shed light on the hidden connections and deeper patterns that are shaping this extraordinary time we are in, helping us see more clearly as we make our way forth. Come and join me.
In Our Nature
A Fresh Look at Goals, Planning & Being Better Humans (Part 1)
It’s that time of year when we are bombarded with messages to set goals, review our year, make plans for the next year, improve ourselves and generally be better humans. We are told that if we set and meet goals, we will feel good.
Huh.
Is that true? Let’s do some poking around these internalised ideas in another two-parter!
Come and explore:
- Why we are obsessed with goal-setting and planning
- Why and how we set goals, and why this may be making us miserable
- What traditional goal-setting gets wrong
- The enormous missing piece in all of this
- …and a teeny bit of homework before Part 2 to help you unlock some of this stuff for yourself
