Lisa Jones Christensen of Utah was diagnosed at 39 with Stage III, hormone positive breast cancer as a new mom. Lisa is a business school professor, career coach, and a consultant to social impact businesses. In this episode Lisa reads her essay “Never Assume” from the 2023 “Body” issue of Wildfire Magazine. It is a piece about giving grace to ourselves and others and also learning that we never really know what a person is dealing with behind the scenes. April and Lisa will discuss what it's like reading your own story out loud to share with others, how lessons are learned in the writing process, getting to the story behind the medical file, and being a single new mom while a cancer patient. They will also talk about the changing landscape of cancer trauma and how it changes and molds us.

Pausing is key to increasing our ability to choose how we respond rather than dropping into robotic reaction.  When we don't take a pause between a stimulus and our response we may wind up just reacting which limits our choices. There are so many benefits to taking a pause; it can recharge our energy: help us to gain access to our inner wisdom: and  enable us to feel connected and nurtured.Take a pause and free yourself. Practice the pause. Pause before judging; pause before assuming; pause before accusing; pause whenever you're about react harshly and you'll avoid doing and saying thins you'' regret later. It's a practice that can make our life better.  When we can take a moment for a pause we are empowered, rather than dis-empowered. Help ourselves by practicing taking a pause before we react to someone or something. It gives us a chance to untie the emotional knots within us. Take a little time to practice the pause. Even if we remember after we have reacted, them we can become more conscious for next time. Practice the pause in an argument, in negotiation, in conversations, as often as we can. We can pause as we think also. You can book sessions and contact us through www.eathtriberadio.com, or earthtriberadio@gmail.com

Show Notes It's time for this month's Stone Age Starter Kit! This time, Dan and Kris discuss the PlayStation Vita, Sony's last handheld that mysteriously barely competed on the market, regardless of how much consumer interest there was in the product! It's a strange console indeed, but how is the collectors market for it these days? If you had just $100 to start a physical PlayStation Vita collection, which games should you get? Let's find out!  As always, the rules are simple. North American releases only, based on Price Charting. Assume you already have the system and any accessories needed to play the games. The budget is $100. And since this can't be stressed enough, this exercise is designed to kick up fun conversation. We don't necessarily mean to imply that this is how you should spend your money.  But before they get to the Starter Kit, Dan and Kris both give their impressions of Sabotage Studios' new game Sea of Stars. Does it live up to the hype? Plus, The Making of Karateka, Kris finally beat Tears of the Kingdom, the art of a good stromboli, the importance of the right lawn care equipment, and more!              Useful Links Support us on Patreon StoneAgeGamer.com Safe at Home Rescue theGEEKwriter Shoot the Moon Stitches Tales of Cape Fear SAG's theme Song “Squared Roots” by Banjo Guy Ollie Social Stuff Join us on Discord!

Cindy Esliger addresses how our interpretations of other people's actions can shape our emotions and behaviors. What we think is being said may not actually be accurate. Our interpretation may be based on assumption, bias, or belief and have little to do with the other person. So how do we navigate that? The ways in which we decide to interpret people's actions can lead directly to our own reactions. If we interpret someone's behavior as an attack, we can get defensive. If we interpret someone's words as a compliment, we will likely feel happy. Cindy notes that it's important to be mindful of the stories we tell ourselves so we can challenge unhelpful interpretations.Cindy defines cognitive bias and confirmation bias, giving examples of how both operate and affect us, and offers insight into balancing our interpretations for a more objective perspective. She shares three tips on ways to challenge our interpretations and assumptions. Ultimately she is guiding us to becoming more confident, motivated, and resilient in our interactions so we can realize greater success.  Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Being Aware of Our InterpretationsAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email

Episode Summary:  Everyone knows the sting of physical pain whether it's a broken arm, a toothache, or a torn ligament. Recently we've discussed physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual pain. Perhaps less discussed is Secondary Pain: pain that comes from the words or actions of others, that makes us feel worse when we are already experiencing one of the other types of pain. Join me with my husband, Scott Bengtson, for a discussion on what to do when someone hurts you emotionally. Quotables from the episode: Secondary pain is that painful experience caused by the words or actions of others, either intentional or unintentional, that worsens the pain we already fight. Frequently secondary pain comes in the form of blame or criticism, even if well-intentioned. People often mean well and are well-intentioned and don't realize how what they say or do will be received by the pain sufferer. Secondary pain often results from comments that minimize or shame the pain sufferer such as, “This too shall end,” “Others have it worse than you,” or “What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.” These suggestions that are offered as a panacea for our pain or as a glib dismissal are received in a way that makes the pain sufferer feel inept, incompetent, and guilty. Any consideration of secondary pain must include those instances where others say or do nothing, even if their heart is to avoid saying or doing the wrong thing, because that makes the one enduring pain feel unseen, unloved, and uncared for. We choose whether or not to pick up an offense. Especially since we're talking about being hurt when we are already dealing with pain, forgiveness is crucial in order to avoid complicating our pain. Assume the best, but forgive nonetheless. God reminds us in Romans 12 to never avenge ourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, because vengeance is his. Scripture References: Romans 12:17-18 Repay no one evil for evil, but give thought to do what is honorable in the sight of all. If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. Matthew 5:44 “But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you” Romans 12:21 “Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.”   Recommended Resources:  The Hem of His Garment: Reaching Out to God When Pain Overwhelms by Dr. Michelle Bengtson YouVersion 5-Day Devotional Reaching Out To God When Pain Overwhelms   Today is Going to be a Good Day: 90 Promises to Start Your Day Off Right by Dr. Michelle Bengtson, winner of the AWSA 2023 Inspirational Gift Book of the Year Award, the Christian Literary Awards Reader's Choice Award in four categories, and the Christian Literary Awards Henri Award for Devotionals YouVersion 7-Day Devotional, Today is Going to be a Good Day YouVersion 7-Day Devotional, Today is Going to be Another Good Day Breaking Anxiety's Grip: How to Reclaim the Peace God Promises by Dr. Michelle Bengtson Breaking Anxiety's Grip Free Study Guide Free 7-Day YouVersion Bible Reading Plan for Breaking Anxiety's Grip Hope Prevails: Insights from a Doctor's Personal Journey Through Depression by Dr. Michelle Bengtson, winner of the Christian Literary Award Reader's Choice Award Hope Prevails Bible Study by Dr. Michelle Bengtson, winner of the Christian Literary Award Reader's Choice Award Trusting God Through Cancer 1 Trusting God Through Cancer 2 Revive & Thrive Women's Conference Subdue Stress and Anxiety: Fifteen Experts Offer Comprehensive Tools in Ten Minutes a Day.

ZEN AT WORK, AT HOME, AT PLAY This segment of UnMind is based on some questions raised by one of the members of ASZC. While she moved out of the Atlanta area, she stays in touch through weekly participation in my Online Dharma Dialog program. As an aside, if you think you may be interested in establishing a dialog about your practice, let me know via email — you can find my address on the ASZC web page. This person was not born in the USA, and so has the compound complications in her daily life of assimilating into a foreign culture, and communicating in a second language, much as Matsuoka Roshi had to do in bringing Zen to America back in 1940. Her questions are as insightful and revealing as Sensei's choice of areas of life in America to relate to Zen in his dharma talks. We will be publishing many of them in a new collection called “A Pioneer of American Zen: The Wisdom, Warmth and Wit of Soyu Matsuoka, Roshi.” Keep a sharp eye out for it in June of next year. Let us turn to her questions, addressing each of them from a perspective of Zen and Design Thinking. They are primarily about relationships with other people, and how they affect your relationship to yourself, if that is not too redundant. We will take them on in a slightly different order than submitted, beginning with those that have to do with the work environment, and the community of colleagues we find there. These work-related issues, taken together, come under the rubric of “Right Livelihood,” on the traditional Noble Eightfold Path of Buddhism. 1. How does one practice being grounded, or doing the right thing, in a competitive world? The answer to any such question, from a Zen perspective, will necessarily include taking the issue to the cushion, in zazen, and then bringing any conclusions and recommendations from what transpires on the cushion back to the office, laboratory, or whatever context in which you find yourself working. Let's contextualize this issue a bit to begin with, looking at the bigger picture before boiling it down to any personally actionable items. I think it necessary and reasonable to suggest, and to take into account, that the very nature of the zeitgeist of right livelihood in our times adds to the stress load that we are carrying on our shoulders today. This is not your daddy's job market. And it certainly is not the one that Buddha confronted, nor any of the other Zen masters in the lineage from India, China, or Japan. The very scope of manifold options available today, choosing between jobs and side hustles that may seem to offer advantages in terms of flex-time or working from home, versus employer preferences for dragging you into the office — entailing social dimensions of in-person contact with associates and management — may simply add to the frustration of making the right choice of career, and its accompanying working modality, for each individual. Choices between careers that allow for remote employment and those that don't are becoming yet another factor in whether one chooses to train in various trades, or aspire to what used to be called “higher learning.” This so-called higher learning basically amounts to preparation for a professional trade, instead of one based on hands-on skills and hourly labor, quaintly referred to as “blue-collar” jobs, or the Hard Working Americans politicians love to talk about. As if they themselves are hard-working. Many are opting for the simplicity of the latter, where they may make a dependable living wage, in many cases higher than their counterparts, in what used to be called “white-collar” occupations. Naturally, time-of-life considerations come into play, as articulated by those who research these kinds of issues, such as part-time student employment, married with children, empty nester, the “sandwich generation,” and so forth. Daily life is so complicated these days that we may need to develop the “Sixteen Noble Truths,” and the “Fifty-four-fold Noble Path.” One dimension being paying off student debt. As testament to the scale of complexity of this question, if you search “being grounded in a competitive world,” you get: About 688,000,000 results (0.44 seconds) Somewhere in that virtual warehouse full of pages you may find the kind of advice that fits your situation, but it is entirely possible that you will not. Access to unlimited information is not necessarily a solution to this problem, or any other aspect of living a Zen life, in the midst of the chaos of modern society. More information just adds insult to injury. But from the perspective of Design Thinking and Zen, let's consider just the single aspect of what we mean by “competition.” Here, let's include a second, corollary question: 2. How to avoid harboring resentment when you are with the same people on a daily basis, and you have some history [of conflict]. I developed a couple of concepts for exhibits, working with some of the subcommittees and sponsoring corporations in the leadup to the 1996 Summer Olympics here in Atlanta, who were then marketing the event around the emergent issues of recycling, reusing, and repurposing of waste materials. The various Atlanta-based sponsors wanted to get credit for their efforts in this endeavor, for being “environmentally friendly,” touting its implications for the ecosystem, the “good citizenship” of corporations, and so on. In one of many meetings, it dawned on me, with startling clarity, that the seeming distinction between competition and cooperation is one without a real difference. That is, in team sports, such as basketball or soccer, the outcome is usually determined by which team manages to better cooperate amongst its members, beating those who are beset by individuals showing off, “hot-dogging,” “show-boating,” and often missing the play that another member might have made. Sports that are more dependent upon individual performance, such as skiing, speed skating, or swimming, are less dependent upon collaboration. That is, until one takes into consideration the training process that leads to elite performance. The athletes' collaboration with their coach or coaches, and their level of ability to take direction, as well as the wisdom of the coaching staff, become determinative factors in their success. For athletes already at or near the top of their game, the coach does not have to move their dial very much, raising the bar as high as humanly possible. Think Michael Jordan, or Katie Ledecky. However, as in Zen meditation training, if the athlete is not willing to do the work, no amount of coaching, however skillful, is going to help. Bringing it back down to earth, one thing to consider is a truism: the strongest competition is to be found in cooperation. Or, better, collaboration. And remember, the modern theory of collaboration is that it is only possible, or at least most doable, between two individuals. Think Lennon and McCartney. Or Lenin and Trotsky. If you are suffering from “bad boss syndrome,” or feeling excluded from the good-old-boy network at work, try homing in on each of your apparent competitors — or, worst-case, enemies — one at a time. Get them alone in a private setting, non-threatening and away from the fray, off-campus and out-of-office. Interview them as to their aspirations, beyond the obvious goals and objectives in the company. See if you cannot find some common ground on which to build a better, more collaborative relationship, while still keeping it professional. Try this with all your co-workers. Begin with the least competitive to yourself and work your way up the ladder. Remembering the old nostrum: Be kind to those you meet on your way up the ladder; they will be the same ones you meet on the way down. On the personal front, remember to foster the “halo effect” of Zen, in particular the three dispositions of zazen, when you find yourself stressing out at your work station or in the board room. Assume the posture. Follow the breath, counting if necessary. Expand your attention to include everything, without bias. As the ancient Ch'an poem encourages us: Move among and intermingle without distinction. Your body and mind will appreciate it — including your neuronal networks, heartbeat, and endocrine system. So will your fellow workers. They may begin wondering, and asking, how you can be so calm? when everyone else is freaking out, usually over trivia. Extensions of this approach include chanting on the commute, meditating while walking through the campus and buildings where you work, and treating the vicissitudes of the day as Dharma. Buddha's teaching, and the practice of Zen, is only one thing. But that “one thing” is all-inclusive. The Yogi welcomes adverse circumstance as grist to the mill. “Through change, consume change,” as the ancient admonition has it. And change, after all, is all there is. You will never run out of it. Next time we will look at other more personal aspects of relationships, expressed in other incisive questions from the same, sincere source. If you find such issues bubbling up in your everyday swim in the ocean of Samsara, please don't hesitate to send them to me — again, you may find my email on the ASZC web page. And check out my two available books on this timelier-than-ever subject: “The Original Frontier”; and “The Razorblade of Zen” (see links in the post). Meanwhile, keep on sitting. Someday you will find your zazen to be “still enough,” and for “long enough,” to overcome all obstacles at work, at home, and at play.

EPISODE 160 I never know where the inspiration for my next blog post and podcast will come from. Let me share another true story with you. I was reading an article about television shows done in the 1960's. One of the TV shows mentioned in the article was “I Dream of Jeannie.” In this sitcom, an astronaut is stranded on a beach on a deserted island after a failed space flight and finds a fancy bottle. He opens the bottle and finds a female genie named “Jeannie” trapped inside. He frees her from the prison that was her bottle. Jeannie uses her personal “magic” throughout the show to grow and evolve into her true “authentic self." Have you trapped yourself inside an "energetic bottle" in your own life that is keeping you trapped from using your own "magic" and growing and evolving into your own true "authentic self?" Assume, I have just found your own "energetic bottle" on the beach and I have opened it to free you from it. How do you now work your own personal magic to grow and evolve into your own true “authentic self?" Freeing yourself from your own energetic bottle will allow you to live as your true "authentic self" and express your own personal "magic" to make a positive impact in your own life and the life of your family and friends.

Everyone loves to play" arm chair" Imagineer, so when new attractions or the details around those attractions are announced we immediately question, "what's going on? Why are they doing that". But on our "to do" list of "First World Problems" we can sometimes be too quick to not just speculate but downright criticize something long before it opens to the public. Turning to the Disney parks we look at examples of that, but moreover, look at how we do it in our own Imagineered lives. With new attractions and offerings such as Tiana's Bayou Adventure, Moana's Journey of Water and the "out of left field" Smellephants on Parade announcement we can see how this plays out. But no where has it emerged more than with the long-ago announced, but finally showing up at a Haunted Mansion near you Hat Box Ghost, where some question not only where it should go but why it should even be put in the first place. I'll share some personal insights and lessons learned since I can be guilty as any of not assuming positive intent. Together, perhaps we can consider the power of assuming positive intent not just for upcoming attractions at Disney, but most importantly in the day-to-day of our lives. Be sure to visit DisneyInsights.com for more Disney.

Conflict is a natural part of life. It's inevitable that we will encounter disagreements and clashes with others from time to time. But what if there was a way to transform conflict into something positive? Something that could actually strengthen our connections with others? It may sound like a superpower, but it's actually something that many people overlook. We often believe that conflict can only have one winner, leading us to miss out on the potential for growth and understanding. In this episode, we will explore how we can navigate conflict and turn it into an opportunity for connection.Kristine ScottIn 2008, Kristine took an AmeriCorps job running a meal program for unhoused young people. Almost 50 youth arrived on Kristine's first night. What happened next was terrifying. Her purse went missing, there were fights and screaming guests. Kristine vowed to never return. But then something unexpected happened. A 17-year-old guest instantly turned the chaos into quiet, polite behavior with a single phrase. This began Kristine's journey moving from conflict avoidant to conflict embracing. She has since trained thousands of people how to respond not react, lean in and not lash out.To learn more about Kristine's mission to create “conflict resolutionaries” wherever she goes, see https://www.seattleconflictresolution.comKristine's book recommendation (Live Kind, Be Happy)

Assumptions are similar to what I like to call “interpretations of or expectations from the past.” They also often live in the space of incomplete information… where we write stories that we believe to be the truth; even though we might not have any real clue about WTF is actually going on. Ha!Today on The Karen Kenney Show, we're taking a look at assumptions, how we make them, who we make them about and what their effect is on us, others and the world around us.Assumptions lack curiosity and imagination.They don't ask questions or seek to understand, because they come from the land of - “I already know”. They're rigid and don't allow space for the possibility of what could actually be. Instead they come from a place of predetermined outcomes - where how it can be - has already been decided from predictions based on what has been.Today with this episode, I invite you to create a little more room for curiosity, creativity, communication and compassion because those are the things that actually create connection!KK's Takeaways:• Assuming Gets In Our Way (3:23))• What Happens When You Don't Take Action?

In this episode, I talk about assuming positive intent.

Tom welcomes Steve St. Angelo of the SRSrocco Report back on the show. Steve began buying silver in 2002, due to worries of fiat currency debasement and debt. As he delved deeper into the metal's market, he started questioning certain aspects such as the cost of production, including energy, materials and labor. However, the economics profession largely disregards the energy cost factor and sees the growth as continuous. When energy scarcity occurs thought, the markets could drastically change. Most investors today are not prepared for it. Thermodynamics is another key factor in energy consumption, as the laws of physics will come into play and create peaks. This typically results in a lack of real growth or maybe even civilizational decline due to exceeding the carrying capacity of resources. At present, unearthed silver mining's all-in cost lies between $21 and $22, and around $1550 for gold mines. Institutions have moved to the ETF sector of the precious metals, and if we go through economic fragility and stagflation, more entities (such as Blackrock, the biggest holder in the PSLV), will likely become involved. Within the last month, debt and money supply have commented the market jump in S&P 500 and the equity sector. Steve believes that it is likely to face a correction in the near future. In terms of energy, oil prices could increase later this year due to demand, and this will translate into inflation in food and consumer prices. Apart from that, geopolitical risks could only make matters worse. Recently, Europe managed to survive the winter with the fortunate help of green energy; nevertheless, their energy problems are still present and expensive. This winter could be different.

Oil prices could increase, driving inflation in food and consumer prices. Rig counts and EROI could determine the success of energy reserves - with a potential energy cliff looming ahead. Guest Links:Website: https://srsroccoreport.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/SRSroccoReportYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCED7G7CZfqdSV9zttlr1M_g Independent researcher Steve St. Angelo (SRSrocco) started to invest in precious metals in 2002. Later on, in 2008, he began researching areas of the gold and silver market that, curiously, most of the precious metal analyst community have left unexplored. These areas include how energy and the falling EROI – Energy Returned On Invested – stand to impact the mining industry, precious metals, paper assets, and the overall economy. Steve considers studying the impacts of EROI one of the most important aspects of his energy research. For the past several years, he has written scholarly articles on some of the top precious metals and financial websites. You can find many of Steve's articles on noteworthy sites, such as GoldSeek-SilverSeek, Market Oracle, Financial Sense, GoldSilver.com, SilverDoctors, TFMetals Report, Outsiderclub, SGTreport, BrotherJohnF, Hartgeld, Der-Klare-Blick, PeakProsperity, SilverStrategies, DollarCollapse, FurtureMoneyTrends, Sharpspixley, FinancialSurvivalNetwork, PMBull, Deviantinvestor, PMBug, Wealthwire, and ZeroHedge.
