Exciting things to come in 2025: The New Years Special

Regenerative Skills

• Hello and welcome back to a special New Year episode. Unlike the normal interview format today I want to take some time to reflect on the past year, answer some very tough and thought provoking questions from the Discord community, and explain my vision and planned projects for the year to come, or at least the ones I can foresee from this early vantage point.
• It’s always surprising to me how this little passion side project of a podcast has stayed relevant in my life and grown to reach so many people around the world. It started in February of 2017 while I was an apprentice to my friend and mentor Charlie Rendal the remarkable bamboo and natural material builder in San Marcos La Laguna in Lake Atitlan Guatemala, and since then has both followed and propelled my learning journey and career going on 9 years now. I’m so grateful to all of you, both contributors and listeners, who have supported and participated in this project for all of these years. Because of your encouragement and efforts I’ve achieved so many ambitions and dreams that could never have come true on my own. I genuinely hope that wherever you are and whatever holidays you celebrate, that you’ve had a relaxing and enriching last couple weeks with the people you love. With that said, let’s get into the topics to kick off the year of 2025.
