Trees —They’re Just Like Us! 📺
This is the portrayal of trees in Ted Lasso focusing on the works of Suzanne Simard, a biologist who studied forest ecosystems. It mentions how trees are often anthropomorphized and compared to human beings, leading to popular books and media that present trees as communal organisms, capable of communication and cooperation. The passage explores the impact of these portrayals and their implications for environmental awareness and the idea of redefining masculinity. It also touches on the significance of trees in preserving the environment and mitigating climate change. Despite the romanticization of trees, the author appreciates their otherness and uniqueness, finding solace in their distinctness from humans.

Coaching Thought 💭
"The more an idea is tied to your identity, the more you will ignore evidence it is false. To continue to grow & learn, you must be willing to update, expand, & edit your identity."
