The interviews that follow cover a wide range of topics including grief, compassion, and finding peace in the chaos of life. This podcast truly offers a collection of valuable "elixirs" for navigating through life's challenges.

    One of the best aspects of The Elixir podcast is how authentic it feels. Jackie has an incredible ability to make each episode feel like an intimate conversation among close friends. As she engages with her guests, listening attentively to their stories and experiences, it's hard not to feel like you're a part of the conversation too. It creates a sense of connection and relatability that is truly rare in podcasts.

Whether you're looking for guidance on coping with grief or seeking inspiration to cultivate compassion in your life, The Elixir podcast delivers. Each episode delves into deep and meaningful conversations that leave you feeling enriched and empowered.

    However, no podcast is without its flaws. In the case of The Elixir podcast, the only downside might be its frequency of release. With episodes being released once every two weeks, eager listeners may find themselves craving more frequent content from Jackie and her guests. Nevertheless, this can also be seen as a positive aspect since it allows ample time to reflect on each episode before diving into the next one.

    In conclusion, The Elixir podcast is a must-listen for anyone seeking solace and insight in their lives. Jackie's soothing voice combined with her skillful interviewing style creates an atmosphere of trust and understanding.

    Sydney Kale is a student, author of The Love Language of Plants, and human in love with the world. She is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Wisdom Studies from Ubiquity University, with an academic focus on plant intelligence, phenomenology, and co-authorship with plants and the more-than-human. In 2021, Sydney completed an M.S. in Environmental Studies and Sustainability from Unity College. And in 2023, she completed an M.A. in Movement, Mind, and Ecology from Schumacher College. Through her academic studies and personal explorations, Sydney has been introduced to an enchanted world of relationality, kinship, and care. Through practices of co-authorship with the more-than-human world, guided by collaborative becoming, connection, and attunement, Sydney relearned what it means to exist in the world and to be a part of an entangled ecology of communion. Plants have taught her what it means to be plant, and what it means to be human. Her academic writing and creative explorations are an expression of the relationships she shares with plants and her experience as a sensuous embodied human being.

    Mindfulness, Meditation, Mysticism, and Motherhood with Joanna John

    Joanna John was born and raised in Durham, NC, which is the native and stolen land of the Lumbee, Skarukreh/Tuscarora, Cheraw, Occaneechi, and Shakori Nations. Her first spiritual home was at Watts Street Baptist Church where years before, her grandfather was the minister and had a statue of the Buddha sitting on his desk- she grew up with a belief in life's goodness and a knowing that she was held in grace. A transformative event at age nineteen left Joanna wrestling with life's big questions and feeling the sense of groundlessness that we all feel at one point or another. Most therapists did not know how to relate to her experience in a way that felt true or empowering to her. She did, however, find mindfulness during this time and it became a refuge. Joanna later received degrees in Elementary Education and Special Education from The University of North Carolina at Greensboro and taught in the NC public school system before having her first child. When she became a mother, Joanna experienced a resurgence of a familiar anxiety along with a strong pull to understand my inner world and connect with what she calls “God” in a much deeper way. She was fortunate enough to find a therapist who related to her experience with trust, respect, and reverence and it was then that she began to find her way. Joanna developed the skills to change her relationship to thoughts, to learn more about how nervous systems work, and to practice surrendering to a deeper knowing. Compelled to learn more and help others, Joanna completed The Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program in 2023, a two year professional training program for teaching awareness and compassion based practices with Tara Brach and Jack Kornfield. This program was in partnership with Sounds True and The University of California, Berkeley's Greater Good Science Center. In 2024, she will have completed an additional year of meditation teacher training for guiding individuals in embodied inquiry. Joanna is also committed to being trauma informed, anti-racist, and an ally to the LGBTQIA+ community. Joanna's primary role is homeschool parent and carving out space for mindfulness and contemplative practices as they are her life's passion. You can find Joanna in nature with her family, gardening, listening to music, enjoying vegan food, and devouring audiobooks and podcasts. Connect with Joanna:www.joannajohnmindfulness.com https://www.instagram.com/joannajohnmindfulness/Journal Prompt:Who are your "unspoken mentors"?
