THINGS THAT MATTER WITH LOTTA H. LÖTHGREN
What does it mean to truly live in nature – not just visit it? In this episode, we dive deep into a conversation about the radical decision to move from a comfortable city apartment to an old house in the forest, and how that choice became a transformative break between two chapters of life.
This is a conversation about choosing the uncomfortable path, trusting in life's rhythms, and finding magic in small moments. It's about the messy, honest reality of being self-employed in a creative field, while trying to stay connected to what truly matters.
Here's what you can expect:

How living with discomfort can make us feel more alive
The challenge of staying grounded when running a creative business
Why we need to engage with things to make them matter
