Ian dedicates himself to humanitarian and environmental endeavors to generate systemic change for the common good and in today's episode we talk about the simple thing we can do individually (and as a whole) to become aware and care more for the environment.
These are some of the questions you'll find answers to:
- How does connecting with nature enhance our sense of gratitude?
- In what ways can gratitude and happiness be viewed as choices?
- What practical steps can individuals take to incorporate nature into their daily lives?
- How can nature-based therapeutics contribute to our overall well-being?
- What responsibility do we have towards nature, and how can we honor that responsibility?

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
