Community Medicine - Part 1
Episode 52
Wednesday, 22 October, 2025
You can’t outsource wisdom. Or connection. Or that strange blend of magic and monotony that is raising kids while trying to live in alignment with your values.In this season final, two-part Faark the Shoulds conversation, QuantiMama Jodi gets comfy with Riona Seehusen—founder of Bellagreen Organic Farm and unintentional mother-hub creator—to explore what it means to live locally, parent cyclically, and hold community without fanfare.Riona’s Bellarine Peninsula farm isn’t just where food grows—it’s where mothers gather, side by side, babies on hips, stories shared between the carrots and the compost. Raised in a Steiner community and now raising and homeschooling five kids while running a thriving business, Riona makes a quiet but persuasive case for slower rhythms and deeper roots.Because the real cost we’re reckoning with isn’t just at the checkout—it’s in our nervous systems, our disconnection, our collective amnesia about how to live together.Across these episodes, Riona and Jodi wander through:— The natural mentorship that happens when mums work side-by-side — Teaching kids resilience through rhythm, not rigidity — Farming as a metaphor for womanhood, motherhood, and community life — How school refusal, spirited kids, and stress might be signs we’re ready for something different — Why pronoia—the belief that life is rigged in your favour—might just be the medicineThis is community care without the performative glitter. It’s honest, imperfect, and rooted in dirt-under-the-nails knowing. Pour the tea, walk the dog, or potter in your garden—but don’t miss this one.Send us a textSupport the showLoved this convo?
