Leonie is an award-winning South African author who uses different ways of storytelling to grapple with many of today's tough issues as we try to find ways to live together on a tightly packed planet: climate and environmental change, energy policy, cities as development hubs, why today’s food system leaves many of us hungry, heavy, and sick. More recently, her work delves into the realm of public mental health and advocacy of indigenous plant medicines.  Much more information about Leonie can be found on her website  http://leoniejoubert.co.za/; her TEDxCapeTown presentation; and/or her podcast "The Psychonauts." on iTunes or www.psychonauts.co.za
