Today, Ceri sits down with prolific author, illustrator and podcaster, Andy J. Pizza. They discuss how each part of you fuels creativity, and why staying true to your weirdest self produces meaningful work. Andy shares the evolution of his acclaimed book Invisible Things (co-created with his spouse Sophie Miller). He opens up about collaboration, resilience, letting go of perfection and advocating for yourself when working with clients.

But recognise the difference between good and bad friction. Your personal work is your most powerful creative compass—trust it.

Collaborating with a partner requires honouring different values and creative processes.

There's a hidden realm and I pulled at that thread.” “If creativity was a pie, it's a mud pie, it´s the dirt that makes it what it is. It is the struggle or the imperfection.” EPISODE RESOURCES https://andyjpizza.substack.com PODCAST HOST BIO With over 30 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

But in addition to Italy's undeniable beauty, it offers a sense of magic that, once you've experienced it, never quite leaves you.

Two years ago, we all put in $87.50 to buy a Mystery Amazon Pallet. Lunchbox had all that time to sell the items and he was supposed to finally bring our money in today. Does he follow through or is there more drama? We talked to our friend Brent Michael who is the person that recommended Eddie to be a contestant on Wheel of Fortune. He tells us why he chose Eddie and an update on what to expect next for Eddie to get on TV. We all shared life updates that include Bobby winning big over the weekend, Morgan has some bittersweet news, and Eddie finally got something very important he'd been waiting to receive.

Little known fact: Rome is the city in Europe with the most green space per capita! It's true, Rome is not all crumbling ruins and crowded city streets. The city is bursting with parks and gardens, true urban oases that often have centuries-old histories. Katy and Tiffany visit one such garden on this episode from our archives, the Roseto Comunale, Rome's municipal rose garden, on a hot May day when the roses are in spectacular bloom. What follows is a chat about some of the most beautiful gardens in the city, and why green spaces are such an integral, albeit little-known, part of Rome's city life. ***The Bittersweet Life podcast has been on the air for an impressive 10+ years!

Rome not only has more fountains than any city on earth, it also has the most beautiful ones, from the delicate Fountain of the Turtles (nispiration for Tiffany's book Midnight in the Piazza), to the massive Fontanone on the Gianicolo Hill and so many others. In fact, the early 20th-century Italian composer Ottorino Respighi was so inspired by Rome's fountains (four in particular) that he wrote a symphonic poem about them.  On this episode from our archives, we talk about the four fountains that inspired this masterpiece, and play some of that glorious music. So pop in your earbuds, close your eyes, and we'll transport you not just to Rome, but to Resphigi's Rome. The Bittersweet Life podcast has been on the air for an impressive 10+ years!

It's just your boys Andrew Larsen and Frank Gil today, and oh boy, there's a lot to unpack from an emotional, exciting Sunday! Lakeview's Baptism Sunday brought the celebration vibes! Tim brought the Word, preaching on spiritual gifts... and in true Morning After fashion, Frank somehow got thrown under the theological bus and labeled a cessationist. (Spoiler alert: he took it like a champ. Mostly.) Meanwhile over at Safety Harbor, it was a bittersweet morning. Andrew and the church family had to say goodbye to a beloved couple who have been a pillar of ministry and community life for years. Lots of hugs. Maybe even a manly tear or two.

Part 1 Bittersweet by Susan Cain Summary"Bittersweet: How Sorrow and Longing Make Us Whole" by Susan Cain explores the emotional landscape of what it means to embrace the bittersweet aspects of life. In her book, Cain, best known for her work on introversion in "Quiet," delves into how experiences of sorrow, longing, and melancholy can enrich our lives and foster deeper connections with ourselves and others. Key Themes:The Nature of Bittersweetness: Cain argues that the feeling of bittersweetness—a blend of joy and sadness—has a profound impact on creativity, resilience, and personal growth. By recognizing and accepting our sorrows, we can also appreciate the fleeting joys of life.Cultural Perspective: The book discusses how different cultures interpret emotions, particularly how Western societies often prioritize positivity while neglecting the value of negative emotions. Cain contrasts this with cultures that honor melancholy and sorrow as integral to the human experience.Psychological Insights: Drawing on psychological research, Cain illustrates the benefits of experiencing and processing negative emotions. She emphasizes how acknowledging sorrow can enhance empathy, compassion, and deeper human connections.Creativity and Art: Cain highlights how many artists, writers, and musicians harness bittersweet emotions to create impactful works. She argues that these feelings of longing and grief often lead to profound artistic expression and innovation.Personal Anecdotes: The book includes personal stories and interviews with individuals who reflect on their own experiences with bittersweet emotions, showcasing the universal nature of these feelings. Conclusion:In "Bittersweet," Susan Cain urges readers to embrace the full spectrum of human emotions. By acknowledging and exploring sorrow, one can unlock a richer, more meaningful life, ultimately realizing that joy and pain coexist, contributing to our overall emotional experience.Part 2 Bittersweet AuthorSusan Cain is an American writer and speaker known for her work on the subjects of introversion and emotional depth. She gained significant recognition for her bestselling book "Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking," published in 2012. This book explores the strengths of introverts and how they can thrive in a society that often rewards extroverted behavior.In March 2022, she released her second book titled "Bittersweet: How Sorrow and Longing Make Us Whole." This book examines the concept of bittersweetness—the intricate relationship between joy and sorrow—and how embracing both can lead to a deeper understanding of life.Aside from these two main works, Susan Cain has also contributed to the literary scene through her articles and advocacy for the power of introverted individuals.In terms of editions, "Quiet" has seen widespread acclaim, with various editions including a deluxe edition that might be considered the best in terms of content and extras. However, both of her major works, "Quiet" and "Bittersweet," provide significant insights into human personality and emotional complexity. The choice of the "best" book often depends on individual preference, with many readers finding that they relate more to one of her themes."} ++++json_input Erotisk erotisk.

In Ruth 1, God brings back a wandering sheep in Naomi, showing us his grace and power. But Naomi still thinks God has dealt bitterly with her and defines herself as “Mara.” Join us as we discuss important preaching points in Ruth 1:6-22 and see how God turns sweet what sin has made bitter.

Welcome to a milestone episode of The Higher Standard — our final recording in the studio that saw it all: hot takes, financial rants, emotional confessions, and at least one broken mic stand. In this sendoff, Chris and Saied wax poetic (and sarcastic) about the evolution of the show, what it took to build the brand from a neon-lit cave to a next-gen recording fortress, and why growth — both personal and professional — sometimes requires saying goodbye to comfort. If these walls could talk, they'd probably file for workers' comp.➡️ But this isn't just a trip down memory lane. We tackle the uncomfortable realities of volatility in today's markets, the rise of AI's takeover of traditional labor, and how to stay grounded when the ground keeps shifting. It's a mix of tough love, real talk, and a little nostalgia — delivered in our signature style: punchy, unfiltered, and mildly inappropriate. Buckle up. The future is now, and it's got better lighting.

This special author interview pulled from our archives is Part 2 of our conversation with bestselling writer Anthony Doerr, author of Pulitzer Prize-winning All the Light We Cannot See, as well as best-sellers Cloud Cuckoo Land and Four Seasons in Rome. Be sure to listen to Part 1 if you haven't already! As the conversation continues, Anthony tells the story of finding out he had won the prestigious Rome Prize literally the same day his twin sons were born, and what it took for he and his wife to make the monumental decision to pack up their newborns and move to Rome for a year. He also explains how writing a book set in a foreign city can change your experience of the place.  He also discusses his work as the editor of The Best American Short Stories 2019.

There's one museum in Rome that has it all—and it's not the Vatican.   The Capitoline Museums are comprised of a collection of nearly everything you could hope for in a museum—sumptuous frescoed rooms, Caravaggio paintings, Bernini sculptures, ancient bronze and marble statuary, panoramic views of the Roman Forum, fascinating artifacts, and the ruins of Rome's oldest and most important temple.   And believe it or not, it's never crowded. Not even in high season. On this mini-episode, Tiffany talks about why she adores this museum, and believes it's Rome's best-kept secret that blows the Vatican Museums out of the water. And don't miss your chance to visit Rome with us, on our intimate Rome listener trip, coming up in October 2025. Find out all about it here, or email us for more information! ***Katy's sister Dana has recently been diagnosed with stage 4 agressive brain cancer.
