The Antidote To Not-Enoughness | Robin Wall Kimmerer
Radical strategies for the scarcity mindset.
Robin Wall Kimmerer is a mother, scientist, decorated professor, and enrolled member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation. She is the author of Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge and the Teachings of Plants, which has earned Kimmerer wide acclaim. Her first book, Gathering Moss: A Natural and Cultural History of Mosses, was awarded the John Burroughs Medal for outstanding nature writing, and her other work has appeared in Orion, Whole Terrain, and numerous scientific journals.
Her new book, The Serviceberry, is about a plant whose behavior is a model not only for our individual lives, but potentially for rethinking the global economy.
In this episode we talk about:
- Nature as a model for the economy
- How to reclaim our stolen attention
- Practices of gratitude
- Counterintuitive advice on wealth and security
- How to change your relationship to the living world
- The science of biomimicry
- Plants as persons, and the study of plant cognition
- And the importance of recognizing both Western science and the indigenous worldview
