Emma Mary: I am a retired mental health therapist and holistic life coach who has been a nature lover and environmental activist for more than 55 years. When listening to the ocean a few years ago l became aware that so much that has gone wrong recently is to do with the fact that western civilization stopped seeing itself as part of and belonging to Mother Earth. I realized l wanted to do something to reconnect us , so having met Sasha l knew Earth Listening was my next step.
Sasha Daucus: I am a regional expert on plants of the Ozark plateau region in the central USA, especially medicinal and edible plants. I began as a professional herbal practitioner and teacher in the Ozarks midwifery practice of Golden Light Center in 1984. My work in Earth Listening as a distinct practice began when I asked the Earth for it's advice on a land use court case in 2019 and received a wonderfully practical and unexpected answer, that didn't follow political party lines.
