The Kindred Life Podcast Ep. 50: “Root To Rise”
This episode is one of my favorites! “Root to rise” is a phrase that my yoga instructor always used to say (shout out to Casey!) and I’ve never forgotten it.
What’s beneath the surface - the roots - are just one part of the story. We root so we can rise strong above the surface.
In this episode, I share inspiring and practical ideas from farming and gardening on why strong roots are so important, and we explore how rising strong is such an important part of rootedness.
Let’s choose wisely what we’re rooting ourselves in, because it determines how healthy our roots are going to be…and where our story is going to go.
Here are photos of some things I mention in the episode…
