For this episode of We Move Through Stormy Weather, I am joined by Jonathan Hart! A life-long Virginian, Jonathan lives with his wife and children a comfortable distance away from both Richmond and Washington, D.C. yet within striking distance should a worthwhile concert make the calendar.

Jonathan has been writing songs for decades, mostly keeping to himself but, in recent years, he's shared a couple with Colorado-based band, The Jauntee and, as of September 2020, he's begun releasing songs via Bandcamp. You can find his work at jmhart.bandcamp.com.

This is a truly heartfelt episode with a lot of great messages within. Episode Topic(None)Episode Quotes“We believe that fungi has the opportunity to really change the future of how we deal with environmental stresses, mental well-being, mental health and wellness over-all”- Craig Garden “If I can change one person's life through doing that, than that is worth being vulnerable. That is what is going to create the change needed in society and the shift that we need in talking about things openly” Craig Garden “My Dad told me to just file that stuff away, there was a problem, my parents were going through a divorce, you don't need to talk about that, you don't need to go see a counselor, you just file it away and eventually you'll forget about it. So I lived my whole life, up until I was 40, thinking that was normal”- Craig Garden “We have an obligation to do better, in business and in health and wellness, but we have a bigger obligation to do better with our kids and create these environments where they can flourish”- Craig Garden “Came into the office one day and said hey everyone full stop, do you guys want to start a mushroom business and my wife looked at me and said sure let's do it”- Craig Garden “ I don't know anyone who has been down this journey of taking a psychedelic and not come out to be a better version of themselves”- Craig GardenEpisode Resources Mentioned(None)Guest Contact InfoEversiowellness.com Subscribe to Craig's Youtube channelConnect with Eversio Wellness on FacebookFollow Eversio Wellness  on Instagram:
