Jane Goodall: She Spent Her Life with Chimpanzees – What Animals Can Teach Us About Being Human

Video Description

*What if animals held the key to remembering who we really are?* In this rare and powerful conversation, I sit down with legendary primatologist and activist *Dr. Jane Goodall* to explore what decades with chimpanzees have taught her about empathy, connection, and what it means to live in harmony with the Earth. We talk about: – How Jane followed her childhood dream to live with animals in Africa – Why chimpanzees changed the way we define “being human” – The illusion of separation between us and nature – Why every small choice matters — and how hope begins with action – How to stay grounded and courageous in times of crisis Dr. Jane Goodall’s life is a testament to compassion, clarity, and quiet strength. This conversation will reconnect you with what truly matters — and leave you feeling inspired to care, act, and believe in change. 💛 I’m Laura Malina Seiler, and this is *The New Normal* — a podcast for the heart, the soul, and all those ready to live life awake.
