Rooted Healing
The Rooted Healing podcast seeks to deepen our kinship with the living landscapes around us and within us. This is a space where stories heal with words that weave us closer to our wild and inter-relational nature, bringing us closer to the expansive minds, topics and ideas that help us heal, re-imagine and co-create the world we love to be alive in. We explore and celebrate psychedelic and animistic culture, cross-cultural wisdom exchange, belonging, ceremony, community and nature-led healing. We also run psilocybin retreats, ancestral gatherings, and online courses in deep ecology. Visit rootedhealing.org to learn more.

How Worldviews and Climate Justice Can Remake a World in Crisis with Osprey Orielle Lake
Founder and executive director of the Women’s Earth and Climate Action Network (WECAN), Osprey Orielle Lake works internationally with grassroots, BIPOC and Indigenous leaders, policymakers, and diverse coalitions to build climate justice, resilient communities, and a just transition to a decentralised, democratised clean-energy future.
She sits on the executive committee for the Global Alliance for Rights of Nature and on the steering committee for the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty.
She is the author of the award-winning book Uprisings for the Earth: Reconnecting Culture with Nature and her most recently published book The Story is in our Bones: How Worldviews and Climate Justice Can Remake a World in Crisis inspired this episode. Osprey also holds an MA in Culture and Environmental Studies from Holy Names University.
The Story Is in Our Bones reviews how women, Indigenous people, and other activists throughout the world are working to counter climate change and protect the vital ecosystems we inhabit and depend upon. She argues that a more fundamental heritage is “in our bones”—preserved in Indigenous stories and culture.
