  • Why Politicians Should Be Gardeners: An Invitation to Rethink Leadership Through the Wisdom of Nature

    Why Politicians Should Be Gardeners: An Invitation to Rethink Leadership Through the Wisdom of Nature
    2025/04/22

    Why should politicians become gardeners? No, this is not a political post. No, I didn’t lose it! We will not be talking about sides. This is about healing, connection, and what we can learn from our gardens and our plants in a time where it feels like everything is falling apart.

    Lately, I’ve been feeling this weight from watching the world spin in chaos and there’s disconnection, judgment, overwhelm, and division everywhere. We have a connection deficiency. And I’m starting to believe, with every fiber of my being, that if our leaders gardened, if all of use gardened, the world would be a kinder/greener place!

    In this episode, we learn:
    • [02:06] Gardening as a healing tool
    • [04:21] What does reciprocity teach us?
    • [05:08] What are some leadership lessons from gardening?
    • [06:11] #1 Listening on a deeper level
    • [08:01] #2 Patience and long-term thinking
    • [10:17] #3 Cycles, perspectives, and resilience
    • [11:05] #4 Nurturing vs. controlling
    • [12:18] #5 Companion planting and community
    • [14:23] Lessons from mycorrhizal networks and pollinators
    • [16:45] Compost, death, and growth from failure
    • [18:24] What if we all lived like gardeners?
