In episode #151, you will hear a discussion between me and regenerative farming pioneer Anne van Leeuwen. In this episode we talk about combining art and nature in culture, how to move beyond the dichotomy of ‘nature’ and humanity, how to find radical clarity with your statement of purpose (in 3 steps), the benefits of reconnecting with the seasons and cycles of life, and how to become native again as the deeply interconnected beings that we are.    Next, in episode #165 you will hear my discussion with Jeroen Klompe, regenerative and quantum farming pioneer, entrepreneur and investor. We discuss his cutting-edge work and experiments in ‘Quantum Farming’ - an approach that goes beyond regeneration and embodies a holistic approach to pro-life - which he talks about publicly for the first time right here. We discuss why we need a quantum approach to accelerate the transition to healthy humanity and environments, how to increase the flow of energy from the universe into land (a free resource we all have access to), why female energy needs to be reconnected to fields (and my involvement in a ceremony to do this!), and why he sees farmers as the pharmacies of the future.   Finally, in episode #158 you’ll hear my conversation with George Lamb - TV presenter turned regenerative agriculture co-founder of Wildfarmed. In this episode we talk about how to trust your intuition as your superpower, why the biggest gift George was given was unconditional love, the moment George realised he was complicit in selling distraction, how Ibiza seemed to change his life (!), why some farmers only have 20-30 harvests left, how to sense the miniscule expression from your solar plexus, and how regenerative agriculture is transforming our food systems.   All three of these incredible visionaries are mentioned in my upcoming book Sacred Business too. I hope you enjoy this recap, and you can explore the full episodes of the ones that call your attention.   Please let me know in a short review which episode, guest or takeaway grabs your attention, and always feel free to reach out to me on instagram or linkedin with any questions.   To listen to the full episodes, search for: #151 Anne van Leeuwen #165 Jeroen Klompe #158 George Lamb   Connect with Nikki: Instagram & LinkedIn @nikkitrott www.nikkitrott.com
