Grounded Wisdom: A Conversation with Dani Wolff on Natural Building, Permaculture, and Conscious Communities
Description
In this episode of Body of Wisdom, we meet Dani Wolff and she takes us through her fascinating life as a legit pioneer in earth building and natural building design, permaculture, and conscious community creation, all the way through to her more recent work with Byron Bay-based pregnancy/gardening group Earthed to Birth and as a doula.
We cover all sorts of territory in this chat, I am so sure you're going to love it!
- From Earthships to Motherhood: Discover how Dani transitioned from her life travelling the world designing and building sustainable natural homes to supporting new mothers as a doula
- The Realities of Conscious Community: Dani shares the trials and successes of building conscious and collaborative commnunities, including her studies at Findhorn in Scotland and how that led her to create two 'model' communities, in Victoria and Byron Bay
- Community Impact: Learn about Dani's innovative projects, including a local mums and bubs farm initiative and the Earth to Birth pregnancy support group (that was concevied as probably the world's first pregnancy and garedning group!), and how she pivoted from large-scale projects to micro-projects in order to increase her impact
- Sustainable Living: Gain insights into sustainable building practices and how Dani learned to adapt them to different climates through trial and error
