Desperate to head out after an extended spell of rain and grey skies, I ventured out on my bike. Slightly injured- I didn’t make it to the place I set my heart on. So I forced to sit, and take notice of where I got to. And it was beautiful, and just what I needed.

S1 E25 - food and nature
I love food - and I love seasonal food - for lots o reasons.
The recent purchase of a butternut squash inspired the cooking of butternut squash risotto, and got me thinking again about all the other things I can make from this vast vegetable, the joy and importance of eating seasonally.
Eating seasonally can help us connect with nature’s seasons, use up what we have grown on our allotment on veg patch or in our balcony pots.
It can reduce emissions from the food we eat and the other environmental impacts of that food.
The link to the website I mentioned is below.

It’s a short episode today, but I hope you find it interesting.

S1 E24 - walking with Wendy
After a short absence from the podcast, I took a walk with Wendy and her dog Bailey in a nearby park and woodland.
We had a great time exploring the park, watching Bailey find interesting smells and noticing the leaves, trees, and connecting with the joy of autumn.
If you’d like to find out more about Wendy you can find her on LinkedIn (I’ll put a link to that in the episode notes)- https://www.linkedin.com/in/wendy-nicholls-leadership-coach/
Check out the hashtags #HopefulOctober and #NewThingsNovember - and the action for happiness website for November prompts or their other monthly wellbeing calendars https://www.actionforhappiness.org/new-ways-november
I was so intrigued by the early autumn-shedding tree with feathery leaves that Wendy mentioned, but could not figure out what it was. If you have an idea - do let me know.
