Tracy reached out to me after listening to my last episode - Unpacking the impact of burnout and adrenaline poisoning in horses and humans with Lockie Phillips and Elsie Reford (Episode 104) - to express how much that conversation landed for her. As the two of us got to talking, it became clear that she and I have been on a parallel path as of late, navigating serious health events and discovering how to find more sustainable ways forward in our professional lives.

The D. WordAlexa WestAffect. Alexa is a dance artist.
“Are you comfortable with the word Dance?”
“Yes…. But I’m not a dancer.”
(Not right now at least!)
Globs of choreography float around: the pool water rippling with the contours of the swimmers’ moves; the air kicked off the marching feet of cadets in ROTC. Crying face. The office worker. How to not dance/dance without dance. And affect again.

Today we are joined by Dr. Tara Martin and Herb Hammond, who have pioneered fascinating methods in developing large-scale maps and management plans for biodiverse, high-priority conservation landscapes.

In these interviews, they debunk the misguided idea that separating humans from nature is the best way to restore and manage ecosystems, and show instead how human touch is vital in tending to the land.

Specifically, we unpacked the way that race influences media narratives about who qualifies as a “real victim” worthy of help and sympathy.

The sexual harm experienced by Black women and girls is often undisclosed, unaddressed, and unseen. In this episode, Dr. Carolyn M. West and Dr. LaDonna Long share their work that exposes the ways in whi...
