About this listen

We are living through unstable and uncertain times. But what if the way forward isn’t more urgency, but more listening?


Inner Ecology is a podcast hosted by Monica Sander Burns, asking a simple but radical question, how can we build a sustainable future by tuning into the insights of nature and our own inner landscapes?


Inner Ecology will bring you conversations with ecological experts, community visionaries and local voices from the Sea-to-Sky to share insights into how nature speaks to those who are listening.


If you’ve ever felt the pull of the forest, the quiet voice of the river, or the longing for a more connected way of being — this podcast is for you.
