In this episode, we’re joined by Julie Chaya, a returning Better Together guest, for a conversation about tarot, astrology, and using both as tools for reflection rather than prediction. Julie shares how her interest in people, patterns, and growth led her to these ancient practices, and explains how natal charts, planetary movement, and tarot can help us pause and think about where we are without pressure or certainty.From walking through birth charts to pulling tarot cards together, the conversation focuses on intention-setting, noticing patterns, and reflecting on past, present, and future as we think about how we want to move through the year ahead.

In this episode of Inside the Lines, Curt Conrad and Effie James welcome Mansfield Senior sophomore Kaylen Brooks into the studio for a wide-ranging conversation that starts with remembering former Lexington coach Steve Gray and touches on Effie’s new podcast, Beyond the Scoreboard. Kaylen reflects on stepping into varsity basketball as a freshman and setting a program record with 299 points, the differences between AAU and high school basketball, and how a summer spent in the weight room helped him take the next step as a sophomore. He breaks down the chemistry of this year’s Tyger team, navigating adversity -- including a triple-overtime thriller against Ashland -- and what it means to already have his first college offer from Youngstown State. The episode wraps with rapid-fire questions and Kaylen’s vision for a storybook ending to the season. This episode is brought to you by Graham Auto Mall.

In honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we’re revisiting our conversation with Dr. Lerone Martin, Director of the Martin Luther King Jr. Research and Education Institute at Stanford University and author of The Gospel of J. Edgar Hoover. A nationally respected scholar, Dr. Martin explores how history, faith, and race intersect, and how those forces continue to shape the way we live and connect with one another today. From growing up in Ohio to now stewarding Dr. King’s papers, Dr. Martin reflects on the responsibility of preserving a legacy, the difference between fear and faith, and the everyday ways we can find the divine in one another. He reminds us that progress doesn’t come from perfection but from commitment, one conversation, one act of service, one bridge at a time. In a world that feels increasingly polarized, Dr. Martin offers a grounded vision of hope: that we can learn from history without erasing it, that empathy is a practice, and that community begins when we choose connection over isolation.

What does it really mean to build a village, and to be a good villager, in a world where so many of us feel tired, lonely, and stretched thin?In this episode, we welcome back licensed clinical counselor Kelly Martincin for a thoughtful conversation about connection, boundaries, and the quiet work of showing up for one another. Together, we unpack the idea that while many of us long for community, being part of a village requires intention, vulnerability, and a willingness to be a little inconvenienced.From chronic loneliness and unmet expectations to self-care, community care, and redefining what support can look like, Kelly offers grounded insight into how relationships actually grow. This conversation may resonate especially with listeners who feel socially drained, overwhelmed, or overstimulated, whether due to personality, season of life, or mental health challenges. Ultimately, Kelly reminds us that villages aren’t built through grand gestures, but through presence, grace, and small moments of courage, even when it feels hard. Let's Connect!

This holiday week, we’re revisiting one of our favorite conversations on making space for grief — because we know that amongst all the joy, this season can also be a difficult one. In this episode, we sit down with Susan Hamme, director of Grief Services at Hospice of the Western Reserve. With more than 20 years of experience. From bedside social work to leading bereavement programs across 16 counties, Susan has devoted her career to creating spaces where loss can be acknowledged and shared. Susan helps us understand why grief is both normal and necessary, why it can feel so isolating, and how we might show up for one another in those hardest moments. She talks about the misconceptions that persist, the ways grief touches every part of life (physical, emotional, spiritual) and the surprising practices that can help people heal. From the quiet presence of a friend on the other end of the phone to the simple act of saying a loved one’s name, Susan reminds us that resilience and connection are built not by avoiding grief, but by making space for it together. If you're new here, this is a place for everyone to laugh, learn, heal and build. Not alone. Not perfectly. But arm in arm, heart to heart. Because we were never meant to do this alone.

What does it look like to build a life around intentional connection and chosen family?In this episode, we sit down with lifelong Richland County resident Bobby Rhea, whose world is shaped by curiosity, creativity, and service. Whether he’s volunteering at the Renaissance Theatre, supporting the Mansfield Gay Pride Association, writing Lenten letters, or finding connection in his faith communities. Bobby shares how practices like handwritten notes, thoughtful gift-giving, and solo trips have helped him see his own worth, root into community, and live more authentically.From navigating life as a “recovering people pleaser” to listening to what your body tells you about where you belong, Bobby offers a grounded, tender look at boundaries, trust, and chosen family.

What does “home” look like when your life is rooted in both connection and impermanence? In this episode, we sit down with actor and arts educator Noah Casner, a creative Swiss Army knife based in New York City and a familiar face in Mansfield through his performances at the Renaissance Theatre. Noah talks about what it’s like to arrive as an out-of-town performer, walk into a rehearsal room full of strangers, read the energy of a space, and advocate for art that feels truly accessible to the communities it serves. From pandemic-era Survivor marathons to navigating long-distance friendships and relationships spread across cities and time zones, Noah reflects on how to build real community in places you may only call home for a season. Along the way, we talk about rest, boundaries, and what it really means to be a “better villager,” showing up for others without pouring from an empty cup.Support the show: https://richlandsource.com/membersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
