We’re more connected than ever—and many people have never felt more disconnected.
Elizabeth Gore sits down with Gardenuity CEO Donna Letier to discuss why gardening has become much more than a hobby. From burnout and mental health to AI, wellness, and human connection, Letier explains why people are searching for presence and how she built a business around helping them find it.
The conversation explores entrepreneurship, resilience, wellness, AI, and why the future may depend on reconnecting with the real world.
