In this episode, I chat about the conscious community I'm now a part of as well as creating. On the heels of 2 years of this crazy global situation we all find ourselves in, it's a conversation worth having. 

Humans are social beings, and the need to belong is deeply ingrained in our nature.

Belonging to a group or community we can identify with helps us develop a stronger sense of personal and collective identity. It can also give a boost to our self-esteem and to our willingness to take on the world and make our dreams happen. But the importance of community goes beyond that.

So, just why is community important? To answer the question we can look at what happens if we don’t have community we can call our own. Since we’re inherently sociable beings, feeling disconnected from others can deeply affect our self perception and emotional health.

Indeed, some studies have linked the emotional strain of loneliness caused by social isolation to physical illness, including sleep disorders, heart disease and a weakened immune system.

In this episode, I share a bit of my own story around creating a new collaborative freedom community. I also got real as to how the past 2 years has created a lot of break down in many people's relationships and why we SO need each other!

There’s a quiet intelligence in your body that knows how to heal, if you remember how to listen. Rewilded Wellness is a conversation about returning to that conversation-the one between you and the natural world that shaped our biology. Host Lydia Joy guides these explorations, moving beyond generic advice to examine personalized, nature-inspired approaches to well-being. Episodes weave together functional nutrition, mindful movement, and mental resilience practices, all through the lens of our inherent connection to the environment. You’ll hear discussions on how seasonal eating aligns with our internal rhythms, why physical movement is more than just exercise, and ways to cultivate a mindset that supports sustainable health. This isn’t about adding more complexity to your life; it’s about stripping back the noise to access the foundational wisdom we all carry. The podcast operates on the core idea that vibrant health is an active partnership with the wildness within and around us. Tune in for grounded, thoughtful dialogues that reframe healing not as a destination, but as a daily practice of realignment and trust in your own capacity.
