The Humans Inside the Pods
A podcast for anyone interested in the power of living in Community
HOW IT STARTED
Back in 2017 I moved into a coliving House in he heart of Stockholm. I thought it would be for 3 months, I ended up staying 3 years.
​
This experienced impacted all aspects of my life and I now work within the coliving industry as a content creator, communications manager and community builder.
As much as I love my job, I noticed the voices of the residents are not always heard loud and clear and that's how I got the idea of the podcast. That, and the fact that I was missing my housemates and the endless conversations we would have at the dinner table.
I wondered if I could recreate these moments with residents from all around the world, experiencing coliving, its challenges and learnings in different places and ways.
​
My goal is to share stories about living life in community, the good stuff & the challenges, and democratise a new way of thinking about Home. I also like the idea of safekeeping these stories which mean so much to their protagonists.
The podcast launched at the end of August 2020 and I have now talked to over 40 people and counting. I am very much looking forward to exploring new places and hearing new stories! Join us!
​
I also send out a monthly-ish newsletter to keep you up to date with the latest episodes and what I've been up to in the world of Communities.
A new episode every two weeks.
Season 1 ended in June 2021 with 37 episodes.
Season 2 ended in June 2022 with 20 episodes.
Season 3 ended in June 2023 with 14 episodes
Season 4 is coming soon.

Support the Humans
This is a passion project which gives me great joy and has allowed me to learn a lot of new skills and meet many great people along the way.
It does takes a lot of time to look for new guests, edit and put everything together and does not bring any money in. It's ok, because it's a choice I make. To dedicate time to this. And it makes me happy. What makes me even happier...?
To hear back from you.
