In this episode we're honored to interview Terry LePage, MDiv, PhD, wrote Eye of the Storm: Facing climate and social chaos with calm and courage. The book is meant to help people find stories, inner resources, and practical tools for living with compassion, courage and even joy in the face of collapse. It comes from her small group work with collapse-aware people in the international Deep Adaptation Forum (deepadaptation.info/events, search for her name.) She has worked as a research chemist, transitional minister, and hospice chaplain. She lives in Southern California and facilitates Nonviolent Communication practice groups, grief circles, and community circles both locally and for the international Deep Adaptation Forum. She would like you to have access to the book - note that PDF and audio versions are free.

As hard as it can be to take care of our physical health now, it will only get harder as society collapses. Because of this, there's no better time than now to take stock of our current physical state. In this episode we talk about how to be prepared now, and the payoffs that will have later.
Note: Kellan is recovering from a surgery, and we will likely not have new episodes up for 2-3 weeks.
