What Winter Knows // Tending to Endings with the Wilder Kin - E236

What does it mean to winter - deeply, wisely, and together?

In this episode, we explore the idea of wintering in community - how we might not only survive the cold seasons of our lives, but move through them together.

The Wilder Kin are a collective of five women holding space for seasonal, regenerative ways of being together in nature. Together they created Wintering - a deep invitation to slow down, reflect, and reweave community through the wisdom of the dark months.

There's something powerful that happens when we slow down, not in isolation, but in connection. When we make room for rest, reflection, and the kind of honest tending that can only happen in darker times.

We talk about:

:: How important it is to support ourselves and each other - not just when things are easy, but when everything feels uncertain or chaotic

:: Personal winter stories and reflections about the warmth that can still be found in winter through shared meals, songs by candlelight, the quiet noticing of tiny shifts

:: What becomes possible when we winter together

:: How we can build our capacity to be with the endings - personal, collective, systemic

:: What it means to compost the old, to let things fall, and to trust in what's becoming

This is an invitation to be with the seasons and to remember that even in winter, you are not alone.
