I’m Rachel Wheeley, a human in the world.
In this episode I walk around a park behind St George's University hospital in SW17, Tooting, South West London in the UK. I reflect on how lovely it is to be back at work, talking to real, live, 3D humans now that everyone's back in the office. Memories of my recent holiday with the kids in the New Forest, climbing giant trees, playing with wild horses and making s'mores in the fire pit, and how much I love my new flat.
Ramblechatting about how difficult it is to have fun, and how I'm not the fun friend, so much as the one who will make you a cup of tea when you've been enjoying yourself too much.
Shout out to my Dad who is recording me a philosophy podcast via WhatsApp, and how my favourite philosophers are long dead (Marcus Aurelius) and very much alive (Heather Havrilesky) and how my reading is very different from my Dad's.
I've been thinking a lot lately about the things I admire the most about everyone I know, whilst trying not to take on other peoples' goals.
Walk the Pod
Walk the Pod is a daily podcast show where I take my podcast for walks because I don’t have a dog. Take 10 minutes out of your day to walk in nature, and to pay attention to what’s directly in front of you.

I've been making daily episodes of Walk the Pod since November 3rd 2020. This is the first of 15 episodes in Series 19. I've picked some music for this series. Here's the playlist 🎧
