#22 Sowing a New Path: From EA to Regenerative Farming, Parenthood and Balancing It All
Dec 12, 2023 Season 2 Episode 22
Michelle Boyde

My first guest of Season 2 is the productivity powerhouse that is Rachael Sanderson, a 6/2 Sacral Generator.

Rachael owns and operates Life a Little Greener, a community focused regenerative gardening business based in the Northern Rivers of NSW Australia. 

We discussed leaving her EA career in Hong Kong and moving her family back to Australia in search of healthier food. Her self-driven passion for regenerative gardening which sowed the seeds for her successful business - initially driven out of necessity during Covid.

Rachael is a solo parent to 3 beautiful free-range babies aged 4,6 and 8 (while her husband travels for his work). She speaks freely about how her approach to food and parenting has positively impacted the behaviour of her children.

Racheal is living her Human Design and we reflect on the impact of her profile, Purpose Gene Key and Personality North Node on the life she has created.

We chatted about boundaries and balance, the mess behind the scenes, planting mint and so much more!
