Recorded on Earth Day 2026, this episode features Devin O'Dea, who has been a long-time collaborator with people and projects affiliated with the Yale Forum on Religion and Ecology, including the Journey of the Universe project and the Human Energy project. We discuss his background, his passion for material and meaningful participation in our evolutionary unfolding, and his latest venture: Days & Seasons.

Days & Seasons is a social enterprise rooted in awareness, movement, embodied cosmology, philosophy, ecopsychology, neurophysiology, ecological education, environmental restoration, social impact, and conscious capitalism. Days & Seasons was founded to create opportunities for people to reconnect with nature, build stronger communities, and live more intentional lives. Inspired by the interconnectedness of all living things, they combine science, philosophy, and experiential learning to help individuals thrive in alignment with the cycles of the Earth.
