Are you looking at our society racked with disconnection, poor mental and physical health, social injustice, and the wanton destruction of the natural world and asking yourself, “What can I do?” Join experimental anthropologist Peter Michael Bauer as he converses with experts from many converging fields that help us craft cultures of resilience.

The most resilient ways of living are the ones that are adaptive, regenerative, and regional. We are creating transitional models of living together to escape and minimize the fall out and to and thrive in an uncertain future. We are creating a new narrative, backed by contemporary science and research, and millions of years of human stories of living harmoniously in place. We call this rewilding, and it can’t be done alone. It can only be done together…
