How do we live in alignment when the world feels out of balance — and what becomes possible when we do?
In this episode of Weaving Beings Season Two, host Hardeep Kaur is joined by writer, filmmaker, and cultural thinker Lily Cole for a conversation that moves between early activism and spiritual presence, from fashion runways to forest stillness. Together, they explore the power of storytelling as a vessel for nuance and listening in a time of polarisation, and reflect on how practising peace and optimism in our own lives is one of the most radical things we can do right now.With references to Rumi and Ram Dass, the ecology of interconnection, and the tension between clarity and complexity, this episode invites listeners into a slower, more thoughtful pace — one that encourages a deeper form of agency, grounded not in reaction, but in care.
