Michael Trotta is a mentor, storyteller, natural learning specialist, proud dyslexic, unapologetic troublemaker (the good kind), artist, hopelessly addicted fly-fisherman, and host of the Story Mischief podcast.

After ten years in education, Michael set out to prove to himself that it was possible to create a life and living on his terms. One more deeply rooted and aligned with his passions and values. In the nearly twenty years since, he's been using a unique blend of mentoring, myth, nature, and mischief to help people get unstuck and do the very same thing for themselves.

From businesses to coaching retreats, writer's workshops to community gatherings, small groups to 1:1, Michael knows how to use stories to generate inspiration, conversation, and transformation, inside and out.

It's a well-known fact he was raised by coyotes and is now raising one of his own on the bones of an old farm nestled along the banks of a tiny trout stream somewhere in Westchester County, New York.

I haven't talked a lot about my religious foundations, which come straight out of the American Colonial period, because... well, it's complicated, right? So grateful to Nina Jonson for joining me to talk about Christianity in 2022 and how the church reconciles its role in racism, xenophobia, and colonialism with "loving everyone."

Nina Jonson is the Director of Children and Youth Ministry at Plymouth Congregational Church in Minneapolis, the church her family has attended for generations. There is little she loves more than supporting children and young people, and all her employment history—from bee educator at an apple orchard, to traveling sex ed teacher for a clinic—has focused on empowering youth. She is currently also the president of the middle school PTO, a Girl Scout troop leader, and a very part-time bakery waitress. In her spare time she loves doing anything with her family, dancing, and being in community theater.
