The Seed Project
You are already planting something.
With every thought.
Every word.
Every action.
Every ordinary day.
The question isn't whether your life is making an impact.
It's what kind of impact you are making.
Welcome to The Seed Project, a podcast about the small things that shape us, the ways we shape each other, and the ordinary moments that matter more than we think.
Through stories, science, faith, conversations, and a closer look at everyday life, Charlotte P. Edwards explores what happens when we start paying attention.
Because small things change everything.
And when you realize your life is always planting something, you get to decide what you want to leave behind.
