From Vegetarian to Butcher. Connecting Back to Our Natural Food System.
In this episode, I’m joined by Kate Kavanaugh as we talk about her journey from vegetarian to butcher and the call for simplicity, slowing down, living off the land, and eating meats and whole foods, just as we were created to do as humans.
Experiencing where our food comes from to better understand our food system. Our disconnect to food and the deep origins of it. The shift in our relationship with food into a hierarchy and a system of control.Using our disconnection from food and community to become reconnected. Connecting with farmers and ranchers to understand where our food comes from. Our health is the result of a constellation of experiences and inputs.Food can bring us the greatest healing. Surrendering to a dream and finding growth and healing through it. Allowing versions of yourself to die to birth new versions and creations. The healing art of storytelling through podcasting. The differences between regenerative farming and regular farming.The main sources of collagen from meat. How animals play a part in restoring the landscape. Whole foods vs supplements and alternatives.What questions to ask to connect to farmers and ranchers to understand your food. How to support farmers and ranchers in a system that isn’t functioning well.Understanding our experiences and thoughts around death and grief. Looking at death as an expansion. Understanding the sixth mass extinction. Finding healing through nature, play, and being offline. A rooting into self is actually a rooting into relationship.
Guest Bio: Kate Kavanaugh started her journey in regenerative agriculture 15 years ago looking at how meat could be a byproduct of conservation. Supporting the intersection of land and human health, Kate opened up a grocery and butcher shop called Western Daughters in Denver, CO in 2013, becoming a holistic nutritionist along the way. Now, Kate is the host of the Mind, Body, and Soil Podcast where she is devoted to digging in deep with guests, finding the threads of what it means to be humans woven into this earth. In her spare time, Kate raises goats, pigs, cows, and poultry on a small farm in upstate New York.
