We ARE nature. Our disconnection from it leaves us feeling incomplete. Rooted explores how connecting with nature helps us feel whole again—without leaving the lives we're living. Host Susan Morgan Bailey, a former science teacher and transformational coach with 25 years in organizational wellbeing, brings her expertise in ecosystem thinking and culture transformation to peer-level conversations with practitioners, researchers, and people who've found their way back to wholeness through nature. Each episode explores different pathways to nature connection, the wisdom nature teaches us, and how to integrate this essential foundation for wellbeing into modern life. From forest guides to researchers studying nature's impact on mental health, from rewilding educators to transformation stories—these conversations address root causes of disconnection, not just symptoms. If you've tried every wellness approach and still feel exhausted, if you sense something fundamental is missing, if you feel more yourself outside—this podcast is for you. No wilderness required. No dramatic life changes needed. Just curiosity about what might happen when we remember we ARE nature. New episodes release Wednesdays
