Magic and Mystery Evoked through Engagement with the Living Earth
Curiosity, awe, fascination, and delight… How can a life be changed by an osprey or an over-heated tent? How can an illness or a traumatic event lead to dedication to protect the Earth and all her beings? What does connection with all beings mean to a scientist, an attorney, a filmmaker, an educator, a healer?
S’mores Stories is an exploration of Allurement and Purpose – Being called to a life of meaning defined by service to Earth and desire to share wonder with others.
S’mores Stories is a unique opportunity to hear the backstory of falling in love with the night sky, the forest, the soil, the ocean.
S’mores Stories is a series of pre-recorded conversations about letting oneself be changed through profound relationship with Earth and Universe.
