In this episode, I talk to the brilliant Annie Spencer about her vast life experience of going against the grain of her generation and becoming a more earth connected and spiritual human. Annie shares her experience in creating powerful Rites of Passage. We also talk about how it is to move into Elderhood in a culture that does not value or seek the wisdom from Elders and we discuss what is needed to make the transition to a more deeply connected, regenerative and healthy culture. Drawing on her experience of humanistic psychology and Ecopsychology as well as working with traditional native American teachings and with renowned Mayan ceremonialist, Martine Prechtel, Annie talks about how she developed her strong sense place and being and the relationship to her land, Britain.
