...we begin 2022? I won't give away the (ahem, hidden but essential life-building) topic, but...check out Dr. Suzanne Simard, a pioneering British Columbian forest ecologist, teacher & author. Wowee. Buy, share, borrow, talk about, form policy around Dr. Simard's new book Finding the Mother Tree . I just finished it.
Here's an excellent article "Finding the Mother Tree by Suzanne Simard" Also, find her websites www.suzannesimard.com & www.mothertreeproject.org.
There's a powerful metaphor for me about hidden superpowers in Dr. Simard's discoveries about how trees, and therefore forest ecosystems, thrive. Here's to the multitudes of behind the scenes women leaders - superheroes - getting life sustaining work done without fanfare. Here's to expanding wise, beneficial human behavior patterns. And, yes, in active partnership with the non-human world, where beauty and surprises abound.
