Are you feeling overwhelmed? Like you are rolling a stone uphill that insists in coming down every time it seems to be some progress?
This feeling that we are failing, not doing enough, or that we have too many powerful forces to fight against in our activism is becoming more and more common.
In this episode we have a conversation with Jess Bugg. In her book You Had To Be There: Thoughts on Ecological Grief in the Anthropocene, Jess writes about dealing with grief, and coping mechanisms, activities, and thoughts, for when everything seems hopeless.

Do you raise vegan children or have you considered the idea?
Veganism in childhood is still a highly debated topic. The two authors in this episode have decided to take upon themselves the challenges of talking about the ethics of veganism with kids. Their picture books do not shelter the little ones from the harsh realities faced by animals in a human-dominated world, but they offer a beam of hope.
Let's chat with Anouk Frolic, author of The Be Kind Alphabet, and Cheryl Moss, author of Gabriel, Cluck, and Pickle, the book in our Children's Loving Library bundle.

Monkeys are one of the species that are closest to humans. Despite being animals who are meant to live in the wild, monkeys are still victims of the "pet" trade, of animal testing, of circuses and zoos. Their similarities to us are to be respected, and not to be kept captive.
In this episode author Liz Tyson talks about her and Ruth Montiel-Arias' new book, From Harm to Healing. Liz is the program director at Born Free USA Primate Sanctuary. We talked to her about the sanctuary's work, about trauma and healing, and about the importance keeping monkeys in their natural habitats.
