Wild Talk is a podcast recorded outdoors that explores what nature can teach us about navigating the unknown. By asking experts from far-flung disciplines to wander the world with them, Emily Kagan-Trenchard and Jay Erickson explore the relationship we have to the natural world, and how it might help us set the course through our uncertain times. No powerpoints, no business attire, no filters between these ideas and the natural world in which they must take root. Episodes follow either a guest or an idea as they lead us through webs of connection between brain science and social movements, food science and education, performance art and algorithms, and anywhere else the wild world takes us.

What do forests, psychedelics, and breathing through one side of your nose all have in common? They’re good medicine, according to Dr. Julie Holland, for repairing our connection to ourselves, each other and to the wider world around us. Dr. Holland is a psychiatrist and psychopharmacologist who has spent a lot of time understanding what pulls our brains away from a shared reality, and what helps bring them back to reconnect.
We talked with Julie in the woods behind her house about her latest book, “Good Chemistry: The Science of Connection from Soul to Psychedelics”, and why things like singing or forest bathing might hold the keys to unlocking the “rest and repair” pathways of our brains.
