Broadcasting from the Northeast United States, we host less-than-an-hour conversations with interesting characters from all over the globe.

In each of our episodes, we amplify the hope and potential that our guests bring to the table through far-reaching and diverse solutions for change. While we discuss the problems and perils of our shrinking planet, we approach them from an angle of action, focusing on how these concerns are being addressed right now. Our lens is focused on how we can preserve and rejuvenate the earth&#8217;s remaining bounty purely by making better food choices. Furthermore, you will hear directly from those doing the essential work to make this happen. <em>Ultimately, remaining stable everywhere and anywhere will come down to how we feed ourselves, and the guests featured on this show have many of the answers.<\/em><\/div><div class=\"clear\"><\/div><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em>&#8220;Movements don&#8217;t follow ideas alone.\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em>It is the\u00a0people with those ideas\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em>which motivates others.&#8221;<\/em><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h4>\u00a0<\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0<\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>&#8211;<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>how we feed ourselves regulates our fate of (in)stability<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">As the basis for future preventative human and planetary care, we share a responsibility to know more about our food and its origins. Using the production of clean, healthy food to address modern health crises and climate instability has gained traction in recent years, but we still have a long way to go. With an exponentially growing population, the widespread consumption of cheap, highly processed food is causing widespread health issues and costly environmental damage on a planet with finite resources.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The solution lies in reengaging with the natural order and embracing biodiversity. Microbes and other living organisms have refined the process of cycling energy over billions of years. This regenerative nutrient loop, occurring in the soil, the sea, and within our own bodies, is essential to our well-being. Our participation in this process depends entirely on how we choose to feed ourselves. Personal dietary choices and global food systems are equally critical to maintaining a stable life. Whether viewed as medicine or policy, the cultural, familial, societal, planetary, and personal benefits of good food are unmatched. It is time to embrace it.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>solutions of change<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The impact of adopting proper practices in how we feed ourselves has a net positive, unintended consequence on human and public health. This approach, known as regenerative agriculture, also greatly benefits the stability of the environment we share with all other living inhabitants, big and small. Without a sea-change in our commitment to better food production, we will devour our planet for short-term gain, leaving biodiversity and our wellbeing in the wake. Without more solutions for change, we will leave behind a succession plan of increased political, social, and climate instability.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">And now, our goal with this talk show is to celebrate leading voices from the land and sea who are committed to amplifying food values tied to proper natural resource management. It is, after all, <em>&#8220;sourcing&#8221;<\/em> that really <em>&#8220;matters&#8221;<\/em> most to us all anyway.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">__<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a target=\"_blank\" class=\"thst-button medium black round\" href=\"http:\/\/www.sourcingmatters.show\/index.php\/podcast-archive\/\"> View Guest List <\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>the importance in how we derive our food<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Moving forward, our approach must refocus on being part of the natural order. We must harmonize with regenerative forces for all their benefits to us, our shared inhabitants, and the planet as a whole. From food to our economy, a more circular approach that reduces the expense of wasted resources is a pragmatic strategy for the future.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">That is why we have focused our show on talking with leaders who have their ear to the ground, and experts focused on where climate, design, policy, energy, and capital intersect with food.
