Pirouette. Up-fluff. Shimmy.
Snowflakes dancing in the north this week!
Here’s hoping they land lightly and briefly. 🥶❄
(Ep 10 — Snowflake)
🎙 Nature-inspired podcast. Life’s messy. Nature’s clever. Feral by Design is a podcast that flips the script on problem-solving. It’s not a nature doco.
Every episode takes a messy human challenge - from work politics to everyday overwhelm - and looks to the natural world for answers. Host Pia, a strategist and biomimicry practitioner, translates billions of years of nature’s R&D into smart, cheeky stories and practical strategies you can actually use. It’s not self-help. It’s the wild middle ground where biology meets your beautiful chaos.
