CTW011 Mystery and Musings on the Natural World with Stevie Fischer Originally from New York City and currently residing in Connecticut, Stevie Fischer is a college writing teacher with a diverse professional background in international banking and wine sales. After moving to the beautiful countryside of Connecticut and experiencing the wonders that nature holds, Stevie wrote the novel River Rules, a suspense novel set in a small Connecticut town. Her focus on friendship bonds, the love of nature, and her refusal to be marginalized are all brilliantly weaved throughout her book. Stevie joins me today to share the mystery and musings of the natural world. We discuss the balance of people, nature, and power and what we believe society is doing right - and what we could be doing better. She explains why she believes the older generations should follow the younger generation’s example regarding pollution and environmental impact. We also discuss how her book poses the question of whether nature can have a second chance, the difference between living abundantly versus entitlement, and the concept of positive aging and how older generations can have a significant impact by simply mentoring young people. “Everyone can do something, no matter how small.” - Stevie Fischer This week on Coffee Table Wisdom: The balance of people, nature, and power and what Stevie believes we are getting right - and what we’re getting wrong Small, simple steps that can greatly impact climate change and global warming Why Stevie believes we should follow the younger generation’s lead regarding pollution and climate change What younger generations throughout Europe are doing to send a message to government officials about their global warming concerns How Stevie’s dog lent inspiration for her book The biggest threat currently impacting the Connecticut River How her book poses the question of whether nature gets a second chance The difference between living in abundance and entitlement The concept of positive aging and how older generations can mentor young adults Connect with Stevie Z.
