Welcome to Episode 9 of Supersede!
This week Willow Defebaugh joins the podcast in an episode that touches on connection to nature, spirituality, and the value in transformation. Speaking with Madeline during pride month and solstice season, Willow emphasizes the magic within community and the good that comes from amplifying each other's unique superpowers within supportive spaces.
Sharing her journey to becoming the editor-in-chief at Atmos, Willow reminds listeners to follow the threads in our lives leading to your calling even amidst doubt and confusion. What have you always wanted? What pulls at your soul? Our life calling is not a calling to perfection, but rather a calling to try, and as Willow states, we need imperfect activists.
Willow brings her beautiful voice and connection to nature through this conversation which values the complexity of life in its ever-changing, beautiful, and messy nature. Drawing from her rich experience as a trans woman, Willow speaks to the beauty and significance of life in metamorphosis. Life is transformation, evolution, and change, and having the peace to come to know yourself throughout this can be vitally life-affirming.
Willow Defebaugh is the co-founder and editor-in-chief of Atmos, a nonprofit biannual magazine and digital platform curated by a global ecosystem of artists, activists, and writers devoted to ecological and social justice, creative storytelling, and re-enchantment with the natural world. She writes a weekly newsletter called The Overview which offers a holistic look at life on Earth through the lens of deep ecology. Prior to Atmos, Willow held editor titles at V Magazine, CR Fashion Book, and L’Officiel USA. She has been featured in US Vogue, Vogue China, i-D, BBC, the Guardian, New York Magazine, and more.
