Ever feel like you're built for the wild, but terrified the moment you actually step into it? Filmmaker and My Octopus Teacher naturalist Craig Foster joins Tami Simon to unpack that strange paradox: why our bodies crave wildness even as we recoil from it. His answer might be the gentlest permission slip you'll get to start reconnecting with your own wild side, one backyard animal at a time. Taken from the full Insights at the Edge conversation with "Craig Foster: Belonging to the Wild."
