Summary

On this solo episode of The Nikki & Brie Show, Brie is solo and takes a moment to reflect on the extraordinary life and lasting impact of Jane Goodall—a scientist, humanitarian, and quiet force of nature who shaped the way we see animals, the earth, and ourselves. Brie shares how Jane’s work inspired her to lead with empathy, stay curious, and show up for the planet in small, meaningful ways. From advocating for animals to building her own backyard garden, Brie opens up about how Jane helped shape her worldview—and how we can all carry her legacy forward. In between listener questions about soil health, composting hacks, and growing veggies in tricky climates, Brie invites you to do the simplest and most powerful thing: slow down. Sit outside, notice the wind, and give yourself permission to do nothing at all—because that’s often where clarity lives. Whether it's knowing your mailperson's name, reading Jane’s Book of Hope, or just saying hi to your local barista, Brie reminds us that every little act of kindness makes a difference. Let this episode be a gentle nudge to feed your soul, get curious again, and honor the earth in your own unique way.

0:46.2	recording an episode out of the Series XM Studios in Los Angeles. We're doing a live. And we're very
0:54.1	excited because we'll be not only

1:14.4	at first when I was thinking about doing a solo episode, I'm like, what am I going to do? I just feel like

2:00.6	and nature, because I feel like that was always
2:02.5	kind of distilled in me, and I've always had a green heart, but how she really inspired me
