Episode 31 of Feel Free to Deviate features Viva Butler. Viva is a teacher who spent many of her formative years traveling and working in cooperatives and food service, including an indie chocolate company!!! Now she’s a teacher who lives at and maintains a retreat in the Berkshires with her partner and a tiny activist who happens to be her daughter. We talk about her circuitous journey towards uncertainty, but also how walking the proverbially walk has generally served her well over the course of her life.

Topics include:

Food cooperatives and the surrounding culture
Making chocolate
Vagabonding
Home schooling
Teaching and the need to better serve kids in middle school
Teaching and covid
Living off the grid
So much more!
