Today we get to chat with Leah Watkins, the visionary behind FØLK Refillery & Supply, a sanctuary for zero-waste shopping in Kingston’s historic Stockade District. Driven by a love for the planet and her community, Leah has transformed her passion into a hub for sustainable, local, and artisanal goods. Her commitment to eco-friendly living extends beyond the store, as she leads by example, encouraging others to embrace a more mindful and waste-free lifestyle.

Our conversation begins with some background on what inspired Leah to a zero-waste lifestyle and the opening of her shop and community event space FØLK. She walks us through her own journey and some of the challenges she’s overcome in striving towards zero-waste, educating us along the way about closed loop and sustainable business practices. Our conversation touches on mindful consumption, sustainable fashion and our own self care as we navigate the move to a simpler lifestyle. She’s focused on building community at FØLK and will continue to provide access to local and sustainable products as well as host makers and practitioners aligned with her values.

Today on the show we are joined by Christie Jordan Barron, an educator, mother, mover, maker, and somatic experiencing practitioner based in the Hudson Valley. Christie believes deeply in our essential need for connection to our own hearts, to nature, and to each other. She is dedicated to holding space for people to sense into and stay curious about the various parts and pieces that make us all tenderly human.

Our conversation weaves through Christie’s work, lived experiences and the deep wisdom she’s landed on along the way. We learn about her work in the practice of dying and how that supports us through deaths of all types and the grief that often accompanies loss. She shares insight into community’s role with grief and how that helps us in moving away from the expert paradigm. Her work as an educator has expanded to include sexual education, supporting youth navigating their relationship to their changing bodies and their autonomy. We talk about her role as mother and the complexities of what that surfaced for her. Our parenting conversation leads us to explore the balance between structure and freedom (masculine and feminine), and we spend some time talking about the challenges of navigating conflict and how to hold one accountable for their actions. Let us know what out conversation brings up for you!
