This podcast “Living in balance with nature” is about finding more sustainable and regenerative ways of living. As a guest in our podcast, we received Sam Nygren who is a journalist. We discussed about Sam's reportage series “Inte bara morötter” which is about 26 people who are finding a new way of living. Sam shows how they created something new beyond the industrial growth society. They call themselves self-employed or small farmers, among others. What they have in common is that they actively try to find other, more sustainable, and regenerative ways of living their own lives. In this work, Sam explores the driving forces behind what they do. In our podcast Sam talks about the three driving forces for moving to the countryside and what could be challenging. The back to the land movement relates to degrowth as Sam's work includes the discussion about an alternative economy and how it could be beneficial for our society. Indeed, the people Sam met exchanged skills or resources instead of using money. In our discussion, Sam has opened up about the reality of moving to the countryside and whether the back to the land movement receives support from the government. Our podcast was the chance for us to go deeper into whether 100% self-sufficiency is possible, and how the future is looking for those alternative lifestyles. Enjoy! **This material was produced by students in the course Sustainable Organising at Hanken School of Economics in the spring term of 2022. The group work assignment of the course was to design a podcast show and produce an episode about a topic related to sustainable organising.***
