In this episode, my guest is Vanessa Gocksch. She has spent the last seven years living within a self-sustaining community in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, deeply nestled in the Colombian jungle. Vanessa is a passionate advocate for survivalist lifestyles and indigenous wisdom. She is dedicated to educating not only her children, but also others about essential life skills such as hunting, cooking, and planting. Above all, she values co-existing harmoniously with the environment and maintaining close connections to indigenous communities.

His story was featured worldwide on the National Geographic Channel. Check out his website: www.shaunattwood.com
