Primal Gathering

A conversation with Sam Delesque, the founder of Traditional Dream Factory, described as a playground for living and creating together. A regenerative living and creation collective based in Alentejo, Portugal and Oasa  a network of co-owned regenerative villages, designed to accommodate the modern citizen while preserving it’s environment. During our conversation, we discuss the hippie movement, and why we have a lot to thank them for as they were pioneers in the regenerative village movement, but also a lot to improve as many communities falter due to negligence on economic stability. Our hunger to create a world where we live in alignment with our surroundings, and how we quite simply don’t know yet what that might look like, and why the world of finance and crypto may be key to unlocking a new world of decentralised power.

A deep and heartwarming conversation with James Hughes, the founder of Gone West. A tree planting company that has planted more than 5million trees in the last 8 years while employing more than 200 unemployed youths and formerly incarcerated people to do their tree plantings since its founding.  Recorded whilst James Hughes, the founder of Gone West, was walking the El Camino de Santiago, a 500-mile walk through 4 of Spains' 15 regions. It begins as a rather informal conversation about the challenges of balancing between one’s own life and labour of love. The quaking change we feel is among us - and our hopefulness of the upcoming generation. Ways in which we can incentivise people away from planting monocultures by creating financial incentives that make sense, and why fighting for what you believe in, and standing in integrity will eventually bring you freedom. -- Primal Gathering (primalgathering.co) is a global regenerative gathering model promoting the restoration of people, forests and ecosystems simultaneously and holistically through events and trainings. Join us at our upcoming Primal Reforestation Gathering this November 12-14th.
