Show Notes: Renn jumps right into an explanation of the Great Conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn Intro to Archetypal Astrology - A grand artistic expression. It’s as though a great teacher, or mentor is winking at the novice student. Tarnas quote “Patriarchy is the 5000 year birth canal of the great Mother Goddess”. We are in a species wide birth labor. Perinatal influences on politics It’s time to lay down our swords and shields. It’s time to focus on the great work of healing and self exploration, it takes tremendous courage to face the unconscious contents. The time of conquering is over. Renn describes sessions, deep work, spiritual friends a bit of a How To Is this the end of the time of fundamentalism? Influence of social media has amplified all the present negative qualities.

Today we sit down with Lorriane Duvall, a true Adirondack Woman. Lorraine Duvall became a lover of the Adirondacks early in life through a Girl Scout canoe-camping trip on Upper Saranac Lake. As an adult, she vacationed in the southern Adirondacks. Her longtime dream of living in the Adirondacks was realized after she purchased land in Keene in 1995, built a house, and moved there as a retiree. Soon she made friends with others who loved to paddle their canoes on the waters of the Adirondacks. Since moving to the mountains, Duvall’s varied civic and environmental endeavors have helped her to understand and respect the different perspectives of those who live in and visit the Adirondacks. As a board member of Protect the Adirondacks (and its predecessor organization, the Residents’ Committee to Protect the Adirondacks), she devotes her efforts to environmental issues. She has also served on the Keene Planning Board, the board of the Ausable River Association, the board of the Saranac Lake Community Store, the executive committee of the Hurricane Mountain Chapter of the Adirondack Mountain Club, and the Community Services Board of Essex County. Duvall holds a BS degree in Mathematics, an MS in Operations Research, and a PhD from Syracuse University in Information Studies. She spent her professional career as a software engineer and director of research. After retiring to the Adirondacks, Duv all wrote And I Know Too Much To Pretend , which won the 2014 Best Memoir Award from the Adirondack Center for Writing.

In this weeks Episode of ATBS we sit down with Michael Furniss. Michael is an expert on a wide variety of subjects but today we are focusing on Climate Change and how it impacts our global community. One thing is clear, the world is warming and humanity is at fault. The question is what can we do to change it? We cover this and more in today's episode Climate Change - Important Distinctions and Differences Program Notes: Some basics on Climate Science. Climate is what you expect and weather is what you get. Distinctions between Mitigation and Adaptation. “Mitigate we may, Adapt we must.” Will Climate Change occur the same the world over? Climate Refuges: Arcata, CA , Red Woods Michael talks snow pack and water storage: California, Colorado, Utah Sea Level rise, Vietnam & the Mekong Delta Early Warning? Arrhenius 19th Century 1980’s - Warming trend begins. The Scientific Uncertainty is not there anymore. It’s warming, It’s warming fast, it’s us and we are sure about that. Setting carbon on fire has been an absolute boon to humans. HOPE! There is much to do and we must do it internationally. Corona virus and Climate Change. Similar? One Species / One Globe. Climate change as a global pandemic… Both are subject to wishful thinking, Solutions are clear and behavior matters. Timing matters, acting sooner is better than later. Do we have time to pull our shit together? There is an urgency in both cases. Solutions: Energy generation - Push towards non fossil energy. Michael STRONGLY recommends Draw Down, the project and the book - drawdown.org/the-book ( https://gate.sc/?token=849a1a-1-1596647829780&url=https%3A%2F%2Fdrawdown.org%2Fthe-book ) Teach children to Value, Steward and Honor the Global Commons.

Author of Suffering The Silence, Allie discusses her battle with Lyme disease and how to find your place in the world when confronted with a system that wants to shut you down and how to find common ground through compassionate conversation. Show Notes: Big issues in 2020 - The unknown requires us to be fluid. The news cycle - Are human beings prepared to integrate the quantity of news and information available today? Feelings: Process, sort and integrate information. Taking time, finding space to accept and feel our human feelings. Persistent change and how we fit in with the changing reality around us. Change can be exciting if one is grounded. Change as a stepping stone towards good. Lyme Disease / Suffering the Silence / Senior Thesis Ultimately, the stories & conversations found during her senior thesis are the heart & backbone of the book. Mental and physical health are so inextricably connected. Difficult Conversations - Sharing perspectives, exploring differences. Good intentions are not enough? Compassionate Communication. Let’s find common ground / We are so much more alike than different. There are Heroes among us: Allie, who’s your hero? People who are telling their stories with bravery and authenticity.

Show Notes: Benefits of exercise at a molecular level: - People who exercise regularly are aging more slowly at an epigenetic level. Don’t judge exercise by how it feel in the first 10 minutes, or the first two weeks. Epigenetics is a reflection of our habits at the genetic level. How is exercise impacting my aging? A deeper dive. Life in my years, not years in my life.

Like what you hear? Consider supporting us on Patreon! http://www.patreon.com/atbsthepodcast Chris’ genuine, personal and considerate delivery aims to connect and instruct, something he sought even as a competitor. As he became the fastest monoskier in the world, he and his female counterpart started a monoski instructional camp to help others unlock their potential without enduring the pain and frustration that they had. Members of those camps went on to win National, World Championship and Paralympic medals. When he attempted to become the first unassisted paraplegic to summit Mt Kilimanjaro, he stood on the shoulders of his heroes to turn the impossible into reality and give others the courage to confront their fears to live and perform most fully. The climb wasn’t without incident. His team had to carry him up a boulder field, but that “failure” allowed him to separate from the obligation to be a superhero—to be honest, vulnerable and to find his real power. In 2015, he published his first book Things I Want to Remember Not to Forget, inspired by his Middlebury College Commencement Address. The following year, he taught himself to draw and wrote and illustrated his first children’s book, Is It Lonely to be a Four-Leaf Clover? He has appeared on Dateline, Oprah, and 20/20 as well as providing color commentary for the Paralympics on NBC and being one of People Magazine’s “50 Most Beautiful People.” A popular keynote speaker, Chris helps audiences become champions of their businesses, their worlds and themselves. He has spoken to nearly every industry and kind of audience—from Fortune 500 Companies to non-profits, from sales groups to venture capitalists and engineers. He inspires audiences to consider how seemingly ordinary people can achieve the impossible. Program notes: 2020 Graduation Speech - Available via Chriswaddellinc - YouTube, CHriswaddellspeaking.com, Instagram, Onerevolution.com A little Chris Waddell gift to the world at large. “Nametags”, Labels The Uncertainty is the Gift / Learning every day Definition of commencement is a “Beginning” “Is there anybody out there?” , things have changed in the world, how many people will listen, communicating with minimal interpersonal feedback, seeing and hearing ourselves, potentially broadcasting into the black hole. Living in our own heads, especially during isolation (Covid quarantine). May be a great time to look inward, opportunity learn and explore self. With no feedback what do we learn, how do we carry what we learn and bring the best version of ourselves out into the world. Breaking free of obligations / Moving from “This is what I have to do” to “This is what I want to do”. Learning, experiencing, be in charge of our own happiness, take responsibility for our actions and pivot accordingly. What’s on the horizon for Chris Waddell? “Our value is greater than our recognized ability”, embracing getting that message out. It comes with some fear. “Living it w/ Chris Waddell” TV , One Revolution “Nametags” program, Documentary.”If you don’t tell the story, it didn’t happen”, when someone wins, or succeeds, we all win. Seeing another shoot for the moon, inspires us. “Living it” Podcast - 1st guest Carlos Melita There are many heroes in our midst. When we open our eyes and ears, we will see and hear heroes hiding in plain sight and they are just like us. Purpose - I want people to see me for the first time / Trying to find a way to make the impossible possible, release people from their own fears. Find a way to fill the void created by assumption, with story. We are more similar, than we are different “Nametags” program - The labels and name tags we put on ourselves can be self limiting.
