The Galapagos Islands are famous for inspiring Charles Darwin to form his Theory of Evolution based on the biodiversity he’d observed there. This year marks the 150th anniversary of the publication of his “On the origin of species”, and the unspoilt islands still fascinate researchers. Some of the plants and animals that live here are found nowhere else on Earth. Today that biodiversity is under threat from an increasing population, tourism and invasive non-native species. The video tracks on this album retraces Darwin’s first steps on the Galapagos islands, looks at some of the species that fascinated him, and at how threats to the environment are being managed. It also follows the day-to-day research of two biological scientists – Beatrix Schramm, who tries to get a faecal sample from a Giant Tortoise to learn more about what triggers them to mate, and Martin Wikelski who studies marine iguanas and the problems they face as a result of their choice of food. In the audio track, Open University biologist David Robinson talks about his long relationship with the Galapagos Islands and explores some of the issues raised in the video tracks.

Emotional Freedom means we have sufficient safety, respect, and skill to stay present and engaged with life… whatever is happening… without reacting from our primitive brain with fight, flight, or freeze. And right now such freedom is rare… as rare as taking a deep breath free of pollution… or having a connection with others where you really feel like your unfiltered Authentic Self. You’re invited to explore with me and our community how to make emotional freedom a core experience at home, at work, and in the world we all share. I’m Rick Wilkes, Emotional Freedom Coach at Thriving Now.

This podcast features a series of conversations about what matters most, however you choose to label it. I have, since childhood, been fascinated by two fundamental, interlocking questions: what does it mean to be fully alive? Why are we here? Drawing on my years of reflection on and practice of personal growth, Christianity and Buddhism as well as my vocational experience as a journalist and visual storyteller, I want to engage my guests deeply on questions of truth and meaning and how our respective understanding of these matters has shaped our lives. Life is equal parts glorious, confounding, and terrifying and the adventures and misadventures we all have along the way are a source of endless fascination to me. I hope you join me in exploring these timeless topics. Logo © 2023, Marcus Kollmorgen.
