I’m your host, Jessica Murnane (author, horticultural therapy practitioner, and founder of Basker) – who is equally obsessed with the healing power of nature and the healing power of watching TV in bed. And I'm merging those two worlds together with this podcast, Inside + Outside.
Each week, my guest and I first discuss an OUTSIDE thing, like our first nature memory, how gardening can change the brain, and the rise of birding. Then we cover an INSIDE thing, like a show we’re binging, the latest internet gossip, and food, beauty, or fashion trends we love (or that need to go away).
