Second Breakfast with Surf With Amigas
Surfing for Science: How Surfers Can Protect Kelp and Ocean Health
Today we chat with Natalie Fox, a surf therapist and environmental scientist from England. After discovering surfing, Natalie realized how the ocean provides an outlet to process emotional trauma and catalyze acceptance, compassion and growth. With a passion for surf and the impacts of human interaction with the ocean, Natalie was driven to study sustainability and research new kinds of surf science to explore how surfers could contribute to ocean protection. In this episode we unpack surf therapy, surfer citizen science, our relationships with our natural environments, and techniques for managing feelings of climate grief, depression and defeatism.
