About this listen
“That bird was going to rearrange my entire life. Not dramatically. Not all at once. Just quietly—the way a native plant works its way through a crack in the pavement. Slowly. And then completely.”
This is the origin story of Flutter By Meadows—and, in essence, The Flutter By Effect.
In this conversation, I reflect on my connection with nature, specifically, my first encounter with a tree swallow, a moment that sparked a decade-long journey of discovery and appreciation for the natural world. I emphasize the importance of curiosity, observation, and the stories that nature has to tell.
You will gain a better understanding of what sparked me to author a blog and a podcast. I am hoping to invite others to notice the beauty around them and to engage with the environment in meaningful ways.
If you need me between now and the spring equinox, Episode 20 leaves you my whereabouts.
