Episode Details

Season 1: Episode 7

My guest today on The Wild Minds Podcast is Lily Horseman.

Lily has been following the threads of play, nature, community, and connection through many different roles over the last 25 years. She came to work with children through Playwork and with marginalised families in the late 90’s.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Wildness, wild play and uncharted territory
• Risk and our comfort zone
• Does our culture value play?
• Our diminished roaming radius and outdoor life experiences
• Not giving up our WHY?
