In this podcast interview, I talk to angel investor and co-founder of intelligentchange Alex Ikonn about gratitude, journaling, taking action, dreaming and creating, adversity, success and happiness.

I first met Alex in October 2018 at a [conference name] event where he was the keynote speaker. We immediately connected over our shared love of journaling and took a photo together after the event. A few months later, he contacted me about being interviewed for his podcast. The episode is now live!

We talk about all sorts of things in this episode including: how journaling helped him during a dark time in his life; why he started writing gratitude lists when he was 15 years old; how journaling can help you grow as an entrepreneur; what it means to dream big; why you should always take action on your ideas; how adversity can sometimes lead to success (and vice versa); how important it is to be grateful for what you have in life; what success really means (hint: it's not money or fame...); why happiness isn't always enough (and what will make you truly happy); what family means to him.

Food forests integrate and draw from the disciplines of permaculture, regenerative agriculture, ecology, biology, and other natural sciences. Together, these disciplines create a living set of tools and practices that can help us engage with nature and our food production in a meaningful way.

A diverse community of life can grow in a small space, making food forests especially suitable for urban and suburban environments. At a deeper individual level, the practice of food forestry can help us cultivate ourselves and transform the ways in which we see and live in the world.

MISSION

To build a free, healthy, and abundant society for generations to come.

VISION

Food forests growing in every community and in every yard around the world.

A food forest is a diverse, perennial garden that mimics a forest ecosystem and patterns found in nature. Through layers of design, life extends in all directions producing food, medicine, sanctuary, and habitat.
