Evolutionary Biologist Unravels The Mysteries of Marine Communities

We’re facing climate collapse, biodiversity loss, and a deep disconnect from the natural world. But what if the answers aren’t just in the data—but in the stories we’re not listening to? In this episode of The Primal Biology Show, I sit down with Dr. Kristen Jenkins Voorhies—a marine biologist, science communicator, and fierce advocate for honoring multiple ways of knowing. From the sea floor to federal science policy, Kristen’s journey is a masterclass in what it means to be human, to belong in science, and to reimagine how we relate to the natural world.

This isn’t just a conversation about biology. It’s a call to rewild your thinking.
