Podcasts - Hope Springs with Annabel Heseltine
Resurgence podcasts bring together leading writers, thinkers and activists doing extraordinary things, and driven by a desire to restore our planet. If one person can do so much, what can we achieve by coming together?
We are delighted to present a new Resurgence podcast, hosted by Annabel Heseltine.
In this new podcast series, we present interviews with people who have done inspiring things; driven by a desire to restore and work with our planet in a positive and healing way. Many people have risen up from trauma, a major life disruption; a death, a breakdown, a divorce or sometimes extreme outrage at the way people, animals and the planet itself are being treated.
Over this six-part podcast series, Annabel explores how pain can drive us on to do and achieve extraordinary things for humanity and says: "This demonstration of love for strangers is an example of the radical love espoused by Satish Kumar in his book of the same name and in many of his transformative retreats. It left me with a question: if one person can do so much good for humanity after suffering deep personal pain, how much more good can we do collaboratively?"
With humanity steeped in deep trauma as the natural world is devastated by biodiversity loss and climate breakdown, what can we achieve by coming together to rise out of this pain? This is the question Annabel explores through our new podcast offering - a question that is at the very heart of the work of The Resurgence Trust.
The answers, as you will hear, are uplifting and inspiring.
