Nature, Culture and the Sacred with Nina Simons
Listen now
Description
On the latest episode I'm joined by the inspiring Nina Simons, co-founder and Chief Relationship Officer at Bioneers, an innovative nonprofit organization that highlights breakthrough solutions for restoring people and planet. Nina has worked with nearly a thousand diverse women leaders across disciplines, race, class, age and orientation to create conditions for mutual learning, trust and leadership development. She co-edited "Moonrise: The Power of Women Leading from the Heart," and authored the book "Nature, Culture, and the Sacred: A Woman Listens for Leadership," which won Nautilus awards in the categories of Women in the 21st Century and Social Change & Social Justice. During our conversation we discuss: * Nina's awakening to the wisdom of the Divine Feminine, or "Mother Life," as she says, via the groundbreaking documentary "The Burning Times" * Why she feels like so many of our cultural problems can be traced back to an imbalance between the masculine and the feminine * How her work through her 30+ years of co-producing Bioneers has been informed and guided by Indigenous allies, and what's she's learned in the process * How her own understanding of gender bias has helped deepen her understanding of racial bias * How deepening with the wisdom of Sacred Feminine has also invited her home to herself
