We tell ourselves that if we only had bigger homes, newer cars, more clothes, and more things, then surely we will be happy. And so we keep buying and consuming, destroying forests and our climate in the process. Yet, so many of us are still unfulfilled. Meanwhile, the gap between rich and poor continues to grow and our oceans are overflowing with plastic waste. It’s time we tell ourselves a new narrative, one that fosters a healthier relationship with our planet, our communities, and ourselves. For the last 25 years or so, I've worked within many different cultures around the world whose version of "having enough" looks more like a close-knit community, strong familial bonds, and an unshakable connection with the natural world. I would like to challenge us all to dream bigger than the fancy car or house and think instead of what it means to have a rich and bountiful planet where everyone has enough.
