Poet, adventure guide and ecstatic earth worshiper Jacqueline Suskin shares about poetry and cultivating relationships with the earth and all its inhabitants. You’ll also hear about: Using poetry as a channel for the earth How connected we all are even though we feel alone How the power of making things up is our strongest magic as humans ***** Jacqueline Suskin is a self-proclaimed ecstatic earth worshiper, the author of eight published books, all of which center around the earth and its bounty.

This episode was recorded in July 2021 during her time as artist in residence at Folklife farm in Bayside California. In this episode, we talk about: Jacqueline’s calling to make poetry more accessible and help people open the door to its transformative possibilities How poetry’s ability to condense deep concepts and quickly take us to the heart of the matter is the perfect medium for our era’s shorter attention spans Reminding people that we are part of the earth and that to forget this connection is to forget ourselves The delight that is possible when we align with the senses How deep relationship with anyone or anything involves connecting and communicating on a sensory level beyond language The importance of releasing the pressure to have a certain outcome and just responding to whatever the moment requires How agenda, outcome and productivity are overvalued by our society at the expense of witnessing and spaciousness Magic not having to look a certain way How establishing relationships with the natural elements can allow one to be more spontaneous and less prescribed with their rituals Jacqueline’s experience running an artist residency How things can change overnight when we keep showing up in openness and presence, but the amount of time, space, and attention it takes to keep at it can be hard Stewarding a sense of self to become more connected with our stories, wounds and joy How healing yourself heals everything else – it’s literally all you can do Witnessing the shift as we return to more traditional ecological knowledge The importance of lying down and letting the earth hold you The power of vulnerability Poetry as a mindset and not just written words on a page The institution of poetry vs the spirit of poetry The importance of continuing to be open and following the signs in your life Earth Speak Links: Join the Earth Speak Collective Membership at https://www.earthspeak.love/collective Become an Earth Speak Sponsor and reach more of the people you're meant to serve www.earthspeak.love/sponsor Support the Earth Speak Podcast and purchase our t-shirt Support Earth Speak and make a donation Get the secret episodes at https://www.earthspeak.love/secret Guest Links: Learn more about Jacqueline’s offerings at www.jacquelinesuskin.com Connect with Jacqueline on Instagram @jsuskin Connect with Jacqueline on Substack https://substack.com/@jsuskin Check out Jacqueline’s book A Year in Practice References: Episode 102 || Jacqueline Suskin Native Land https://native-land.ca/ Folk Life Farm Bill Thompson Poem Store Bruce Nauman Journal of a Novel by John Steinbeck The returning of Tuluwat Island Land Back Movement Shawna’s registry Natalie’s website Noticing with Natalie Podcast The AuDHD Flourishing podcast Enter The Portal podcast Rooted Business podcast ► Leave us a written review on iTunes, and get shouted out on the show!

In this episode, we talk about: Rewriting beliefs around urban spaces lacking connection with nature Finding the right level of human connection to help uncared for land flourish How the conversation around land stewardship is more complicated than just planting a bunch of trees Honoring decay How we don’t have to reinvent the wheel The younger generation having so much to say (about the earth) How allowing people the time and space to dream and explore will allow them to connect with the earth Going beyond duality to allow both hope and hopelessness to exist simultaneously How we can’t have awe without attunement to despair and grief How we have the power to change everything in this moment How cultivating trust in the now can help us soothe our despair and expand our trust in the future Jacqueline’s new book A Year in Practice Remembering the cycles that are already in us to align with the rhythms that exist in the world The difficulty of transitions The grief of loosing the familiarity of the way we know the seasons The connection between imagination and intuition How supporting the community is a pathway to combat our isolation How practicing relationship involves showing up for it no matter who or what we are in relationship with Earth Speak Links: Join the Earth Speak Collective Membership at https://www.earthspeak.love/collective Become an Earth Speak Sponsor and reach more of the people you're meant to serve www.earthspeak.love/sponsor Support the Earth Speak Podcast and purchase our t-shirt Support Earth Speak and make a donation Get the secret episodes at https://www.earthspeak.love/secret Guest Links: Learn more about Jacqueline’s offerings at www.jacquelinesuskin.com Connect with Jacqueline on Instagram @jsuskin Connect with Jacqueline on Substack https://substack.com/@jsuskin Check out Jacqueline’s book A Year in Practice References: Native Land https://native-land.ca/ A brief history of Detroit Poem Forest Australia Folk Life Farm Inside Out Literary Arts Detroit Poem Store ► Leave us a written review on iTunes, and get shouted out on the show!
