Chef Marcus Anthony Davis takes us on a conversational journey with his wife and business parter, Rose Orrell Davis to discuss wellness, lifestyle, cooking, business, love and the realities in between. These conversations will often include a special guest that offers a fresh perspective on the topic.
Filming this podcast changed our lives and we hope it will change yours too. We had the pleasure of sitting down with Doniga Markegard, a regenerative rancher and fellow tracker and friend. Doniga has a background in nature and permaculture. This has given her a perspective on the real risks that we are facing as a species. In her youth she was mentored by some of the leading wildlife trackers, naturalists and Native spiritual elders. She spent years alone and with a small group of passionate youth in the Western Washington Wilderness learning the ways of the ancestors, immersing in nature, bird language, survival skills and wildlife tracking.Along with her husband and four children, Doniga owns and operates Markegard Family Grass-Fed LLC raising grass-fed beef, lamb, pastured pork, chicken and dairy supplying the Bay Area with local, nutrient dense foods. The family ranch leases land throughout the Bay Area spanning over 10,000 acres. She is dedicated to finding ways to regenerate lands and community through ranching practices that build soil, sequester carbon, capture and purify water and enhance habitat. Doniga is featured at the Exploratorium Museum in San Francisco and has written 2 life changing books, “Dawn Again” and “Wolf Girl”. She has been featured on many podcasts and publications as well as the Netflix documentary “Kiss the Ground”.You can follow her amazing work here:https://www.donigamarkegard.comhttps://www.markegardfamily.comWant more? www.marcusanthonytable.com / www.wahgwan.com
The inspiring couple behind Mahogany Roads are Dave and Nia, veterans, parents and now full-time RV’ers. Originally from New York, they have been fortunate to explore the world through their military experience and together they are now touring the USA with their adorable daughter, Amadhi. They share their journey as they travel across the USA in their RV through their social media and blog, Mahogany Roads. The inspiration for Mahogany Roads comes from their experiences traveling both individually and together as a couple. They’ve visited so many countries, cities, and small towns realizing that no matter where they went, there always seemed to be very little of “them” around—African-American and Latino travelers. Throughout this journey, they hope to inspire more people not only within their communities but everyone collectively to get out and experience the various communities around the world. Blend in with the local population; live amongst the people; but most importantly, create your very own social and cultural exchanges that inspire others along the way. Life is too short to live without knowing the freedom of travel, the wonder of new experiences, and the joy of creating new social connections.
