Welcome to Sense-Making in a Changing World

Welcome to the SENSE MAKING IN A CHANGING WORLD podcast where we explore the kind of thinking we need to navigate a positive way forward.I’m your host Morag Gamble - permaculture educator & global ambassador, filmmaker, ecovillager, Warm Data host, food forester, mother, [pr]activist & all round lover of thinking, communicating & acting regeneratively.For a long time it has been clear to me that to shift trajectory to a thriving one-planet way of life, we first need to shift our thinking. The way we perceive ourselves in relation to nature, self & community.How do we make sense of this, to know which way to turn, to know what action to focus on so our efforts are worthwhile, nourishing & towards resilience, regeneration & reconnection?What better way to make sense than to join together with others in open generative conversation. In this podcast I will share conversations with my friends and colleagues - people who inspire & challenge me with their ways of thinking, connecting & acting. These wonderful people are thinkers, doers, activists, scholars, writers, leaders, farmers, educators - people whose work informs permaculture & spark the imagination of what a post COVID, climate resilient, socially just future looks like. Their ideas & projects help us make sense in this changing world - to compost & digest, & nurture fertile ground for new ideas, connections & actions.I cant wait to share these conversations with you.Fritjof CapraRosemary MorrowEmma-Kate Rose Satish Kumar Rhonda Hetzel Jason TwillAmanda CahillDaniel Christian Wahl Sierra Robinson ...I am delighted to be launching this on World Environment Day 2020 - the 20th global celebration. I’ll be releasing a new conversation each Wednesday. Subscribe to the podcast so you don't miss an episode.Over the past three decades of personally making sense of the multiple crises we face,  I always return to the practical and positive world of permaculture with its ethics of earth care,  people care and fair share. I have seen first hand how adaptable & responsive it can be in all contexts from urban to rural, from refugee camps to suburbs.This podcast is sponsored by Permaculture Education Institute and our Permaculture Educators Program.  Our 4 part permaculture video series explains what permaculture is and how to make it your livelihood & way of life. We’d love to invite you to join our inspiring, friendly & supportive global learning community.You can also watch the conversation, on my YouTube channel, Our Permaculture Life Feel free to share. Perhaps you can create a local conversation circle to explore the ideas shared in each show & discuss together how this makes sense in your local community & environment.I look forward to the pleasure of your company each week & your comments too.Warm regards,Morag GambleI acknowledge & pay respects to the Traditional owners of the land from which I am broadcasting, the Gubbi Gubbi people.The inspiration for the podcast name is from learning Warm Data w.

Really live, as nature ourselves, tending the conditions where life can thrive. We ask How do we become the kind of humans this moment is asking us to be?This podcast is one of my acts of myceliation. Each conversation is a thread in a vast network of people speaking up for life with love and care. This podcast beams out from my hand-built solar-powered studio in the midst of a permaculture food forest in a permaculture ecovillage on Jinibara and Gubbi Gubbi country.If this episode lights something in you, pass it to one person who needs it. That is how myceliation works.
