EP 58: Flipping the Script (Hard-won Lessons From the Past Year)

David and Alyssa sitting and facing the camera with two podcast mics

Welcome to a NEW episode of the Our Nature Podcast featuring an interview with me– Alyssa Benjamin! This episode is incredibly special for a number of reasons. First, it’s my first episode in almost a year, which is wild. Second, I’m switching it up, and this time around, my partner David is going to be asking the questions. I wanted to have an episode that dove into what the heck has been happening with me all these months because I went very inward, into a metaphorical cave, and I’m now truly ready to step back into the world.

I wanted to talk more about what caused me to pause this podcast and many aspects of my business; the surprising career decision I made last summer that was guided by my intuition; the diagnosis that transformed my relationship to myself; my business and all of my relationships, and what’s to come/what you can expect from me this year.

This was a vulnerable episode for me, but my word this year is courage, so I’m leaning in!

I feel honored and grateful for this platform and the community that surrounds it, and I promise to continue to lead with integrity and a generosity of spirit. If you’ve been an Our Nature listener for some time, thank you for sticking with me.

I’m thankful to be back in your ears and back in so many other ways!
