Season 3 Introduction: Love & Reciprocity - Recorded Live from the Wild Goose Festival

Note: This episode was recorded live at the Wild Goose Festival. The audio quality does not meet our typicaly standards, but isn't that life... a little messy and not always meeting the standard?Welcome to Season 3 of Radical Sacred! In our season opener we find ourselves having a beautiful time at The Wild Goose Festival in Harmony, North Carolina. Spending 4 days camping under the stars, listening and learning from progressive speakers from vastly different backgrounds, meeting like minded friends, leading contemplative nature walks, and seeing butterflies of all kinds feels like the perfect start to our season of reciprocity. Moving towards a system that is mutually beneficial to all beings matters not only for our survival, but we believe will lead us on a pathway toward a more equitable, nature centered, kinder world. Join us as we speak to authors, thinkers, scientists, and naturalists this season as we explore the beauty of living reciprocally. Cool stuff we mention in this week’s episode (or meant to anyways): Wild Goose Festival The Serviceberry, Gathering Moss, or Braiding Sweetgrass  by: Robin Wall KimmererLiving Resistance Kaitlin B Curtice World as Lover World as Self Joanna Macy Terra DivinaChapters00:00 Welcome to Season Three of Radical Sacred03:31 Exploring the Wild Goose Festival Experience06:01 The Spirit of Inclusion and Community07:11 Introducing the Theme of Reciprocity07:11 Understanding Reciprocity15:21 The Importance of Reciprocity in Society18:17 Nature's Role in Reciprocity21:23 Personal Stories of Reciprocity24:13 Reciprocity in Human Relationships27:13 Exploring Literature on Reciprocity28:39 Radical Sacred_outro.mp3
