About the podcast
Coming Home to Life (formally ReGeneration Rising) was originally created as a collaboration between Dr. Daniel Christian Wahl and RSA Oceania. From 2026, the podcast enters a new chapter in close collaboration with the Arne Næss Foundation, reflecting a shared philosophical grounding in deep ecology, which understands that humans are inseparably woven into the whole of life and that lasting change begins with how we understand and experience this interconnectedness.
Coming Home to Life is a celebration of people falling in love with life, with place and with community.
A partnership with
The Arne Næss Foundation
