Introducing the Peace is Here Podcast

Do you ever dream of a world with no war? What if peace isn’t something far away—but something already waiting for us to notice and unwrap? Welcome to Peace Is Here, a podcast about everyday peace, bold ideas, and the people who carry light in dark times. Hosted by author Avis Kalfsbeek, this slow-listening series explores what peace really means—through the eyes of philosophers, mystics, nature writers, poets, political thinkers, and ordinary humans (and dogs) doing extraordinary things. In this new trailer, you’ll hear what to expect from the podcast, from public-domain readings to plant-based reflections, trail-side insights, and guest appearances from Avis’s dog Teo and his buddy Pedro the Water Dog. If you’re hungry for peace—not perfection… If you’re seeking stillness in a loud, fast world… If you believe peace can be playful, poetic, and powerful… You’re in the right place. New to the show?
