Wildheart

Welcome to Wildheart, a podcast hosted by Maddy Winterbrook and Eleanor Cheetham, founders of The Wild Academy and authors of The Rewilding Yearbook. Flowing with the changing phases of the year, each episode is guided by a seasonally-inspired word: a seed of curiosity that takes our conversation from the roots of definition and etymology to the branches of meaning and story, exploring how rewilding language can help us rewild ourselves. Like Maddy and Eleanor, this is a podcast that’s slightly feral around the edges - not polished perfection, but thoughtful, wandering dialogue that invites listeners to slow down, sink in, and unearth a wilder way of being. If you’re longing to connect more deeply and gently with yourself, the seasons, and the world around you, you’re in the right place. Your wild heart is welcome here. Each series of Wildheart contains eight episodes, released weekly on Wednesdays.
