Home Everywhere and Nowhere with Jonathan Pillot (Season 4 | Episode 156)

[Tessa] He’s back! My dear friend Jonathan Pillot.

Jonathan is a creator, an explorer, and a man who is constantly challenging the norms. Each time we meet he brings me so much that is new. And so I am thrilled to have Jonathan back on the pod.

In this episode of The Open Nesters Podcast, Jonathan shares his personal journey of self-discovery and open nesting. He discusses open nesting, embracing nomadic living, and freeing oneself from societal labels. Jonathan explores the complexities of life, the value of authenticity, and self-acceptance.

Through his reflections on shame, mental health, and communication, Jonathan advocates for compassion, empathy, and self-love. He also sheds light on his upcoming projects, involvement in end-of-life work, and activism for societal issues, emphasizing the importance of community engagement and raising awareness. Jonathan is a testament to the power of self-discovery and living authentically despite societal expectations, offering insights into navigating life’s paradoxes with grace and resilience.
