About this listen

In this week’s cultural deep dive, we travel to Aboriginal Australia—home to the oldest continuous food culture on the planet. Before colonization, before global trade, and before modern agriculture, the First Peoples of Australia thrived for tens of thousands of years using foods that were deeply connected to land, season, and spirit.

From bush yams and kangaroo meat to wattleseed, and bush tomatoes, we break down what Aboriginal families actually ate, how these foods were traditionally prepared, and what made this food system so powerful.

You’ll hear:

  • Where these foods come from (origin)
  • How they were used culturally
  • Science-backed health benefits modern researchers are just catching up to
  • How we can reconnect with this ancestral wisdom today

And as always, we end with a reminder that reconnection isn’t nostalgia — it’s strategy, it’s healing, and it’s the key to understanding our bodies again.

If you’re ready to learn from the world’s oldest surviving food knowledge, this episode will change the way you think about “healthy eating” forever.

Reconnection is Power. Let’s go.
