Episode 94. Are you a Jew, Christian, or Muslim? Do you wonder about how your holiday this spring intersects with other holidays occurring at or near the same time? What do you make of that? And what does your holiday mean to you? How do you celebrate it? In this month's reflection, I address how Ramadan, Lent, and Passover connect thematically, and in the calendar. In these tense times when so many of us are feeling anxious and distressed, we can either give into that or strive to remember what connects us to be civil and caring and, that we can learn from each other. I personally choose the latter and I'm guessing you do as well. I thought taking a few moments to look at the main themes of these holidays and the calendar of these holidays that we can, get a little relief from the exhaustion and expand, enrich our own spiritual experience.Highlights:Ramadan, Lent and Passover coinciding this year.Ramadan and Lent: Repentance and gratitude.Lent and Passover: Redemption and transformation.Fasting or restriction brings time and reflection.Exodus story as the foundation for both Lent and Passover.Importance of processes over time for renewal and spiritual cleansing.Bio:I am a public scholar and interreligious leader with a keen interest in understanding the nature of similarities and differences––especially religious and cultural.  The Talking with God Project is currently my main focus, and I am actively expanding its reach through workshops, articles, panels, talks and a podcast.  ​Raised in the Boston area, I have lived in Seattle, WA and Berlin, Germany, before returning to Boston in 2017.  Carving out a varied educational and professional path, I hold a B.A. in Fine Art from Oberlin College (1984), an M.B.A. from Northeastern University (1997), a Certificate in Coaching from the International Coach Academy (2015), and a Master of Jewish Liberal Studies (MJLS) from Hebrew College with a focus on Global Interreligious Studies (2019).  Professionally, I have worked as a business manager, an art dealer and founder of Solomon Fine Art gallery, language trainer, text editor, business coach and now public scholar and podcaster. ​Though raised in an interfaith non-observant home. my Conservative Jewish practice and wide range of personal and professional experiences inform my research and life.Transcript on BuzzsproutSocial Media links for Méli:Website – the Talking with God ProjectMeli's emailLinkedIn – Meli SolomonFacebook – Meli SolomonFollow the podcast!The Living Our Beliefs podcast is part of the Talking with God Project.

On this week's show… Something like “being tough on immigration” can so easily become political capital, and, of course no one wants unfettered streams of people, unchecked, moving through one's country's borders. But what happens, when a hard-line policy ignores nuance, ignores affected industries and is also hard on human rights while implementing policy? Enter this week's show guest, Brian Reisinger, author of Land Rich Cash Poor, from a multi-generation farm, a journalist, author and ex White House agricultural policy adviser, who works on building bipartisan support for improving the lives of farmers and the stability of the food system - from access to consumer pricing. We need to think more profoundly and go wider in our search to understand a subject, garnering more perspectives on issues before we ‘know them'. Big tech profits from polarisation and sensationalisation. I feel lucky to bring these considered, intelligent deep dives to the show with experts who can explore all aspects of an issue - not just what they want to promote or politicise. So we talk about: How the farm seems to have been the way of the past, not the future and how that feels for small and medium farms (across the world)How the evaporation of the middle class promise affects city and rural people TOGETHER - not as adversaries. How immigration policy affects small/medium farms and policy often fails farms. and much moreWant to learn more about this week's guest?

On today's episode, I'm speaking with the wonderful Preethi Nair—an author, entrepreneur, and storyteller with an incredible journey into publishing.Preethi left her career as a management consultant to pursue her dream of writing, but after facing multiple rejections from publishers, she took matters into her own hands. She set up her own publishing company, took on a secret identity as a publicist, and successfully got her debut novel Gypsy Masala a whole load of press and attention. Her creative marketing and perseverance led to a three-book deal with HarperCollins, and she has since gone on to inspire countless aspiring writers with her story.In this episode, we talk about her novel Unravelling, a beautifully written story about family, love, and self-discovery. We also explore the deeper themes of identity, resilience, and the unconventional path she took to bring her books into the world. Unravelling is indepdnently published, and this is a conversation full of warmth, wisdom, and inspiration, and I can't wait for you to hear it.Support the show

Richard Horan first arrived at Esalen in the mid 1960s, traveling from Los Angeles to Big Sur at the height of a cultural renaissance. He was an early member of the Esalen massage crew and played a pivotal role in founding the Esalen Garden, a space that continues to nourish the land and community today. He was also deeply involved in the psychedelic inquiry of the time. Over the years, his connections to Esalen deepened: with Gabrielle Roth he had a son, Jonathan Horan. Later, he married Peggy Horan, and together they raised two daughters, Lucia and Jasmine. Horan's purpose as an artist was revealed to him during his time at Esalen when he founded the Art Barn as a collective with other artists.  Horan remains legendary in Big Sur for his mastery of jade carving. His work includes rings, earrings, pendants, belt buckles, and sculptures, many of which are inspired by ancient esoteric symbols and indigenous traditions. His signature earrings are renowned for their thin-cut jade, which allows light to pass through. As a multi media artist, he has worked in depth with clay, redwood and jade, making musical instruments, art objects and jewelry. Today, we'll hear from Richard as he reflects on his journey—his artistic process, his connection to Esalen, and the life he has built in harmony with the wild nature of Big Sur.

We don't naturally think when we have recurrent sinusitis or cognitive decline: “Well I guess I should book with the dentist!” Right? Well, today's guest Dr. Michelle Jorgensen who is a dentist, naturopath, author and speaker,. says, you might want to make that dentist appointment!As she's seen as both a dentist and a naturopath, oftentimes what's happening in the body can originate from dental work that's been done in the mouth - common procedures millions of us have had.I was blown away by some of the examples she shared in this show. Once Michelle's eyes were opened, she decided to study beyond dentistry and dive deep into the history of health cultivation from around the world to design a blueprint to get her own health back on track and help her patients and now people around the world do the same. In this show you'll grow confidence in: How our mouth is a dashboard for the body and how to ask for investigations to see if what ails you is connected to past dental procedures you might have had. How we now have the technology to find hidden mouth infections that can lead to rapid health improvements - the Chronic fatigue example blew me away! How ‘we're all energy' isn't woo woo - energy is just another word for electricity and we are all electrical beings.Tuning into what your body needs and when - an individual seasonal approach. How a simple assessment can give us a blueprint for how to move forward.

Episode 91.    In this episode, I delve into the complex intersection of personal faith and public roles. I reflect on my recent conversation with Chris Stevenson, founder of the National Museum of American Religion, who chooses to leave his Mormon faith outside the museum to maintain an inclusive environment. I also explore the balance between personal religious identity, intention, and situational appropriateness, sharing my experience of being Jewish in Germany and interacting with diverse cultures and traditions. I highlight the importance of respectful dialogue and awareness, drawing connections to the observance of Ramadan and the values it emphasizes, such as mindfulness and community. Bio:I am a public scholar and interreligious leader with a keen interest in understanding the nature of similarities and differences––especially religious and cultural.  The Talking with God Project is currently my main focus, and I am actively expanding its reach through workshops, articles, panels, talks and a podcast.  ​Raised in the Boston area, I have lived in Seattle, WA and Berlin, Germany, before returning to Boston in 2017.  Carving out a varied educational and professional path, I hold a B.A. in Fine Art from Oberlin College (1984), an M.B.A. from Northeastern University (1997), a Certificate in Coaching from the International Coach Academy (2015), and a Master of Jewish Liberal Studies (MJLS) from Hebrew College with a focus on Global Interreligious Studies (2019).  Professionally, I have worked as a business manager, an art dealer and founder of Solomon Fine Art gallery, language trainer, text editor, business coach and now public scholar and podcaster. ​Though raised in an interfaith non-observant home. my Conservative Jewish practice and wide range of personal and professional experiences inform my research and life.Resources:Chris Stevenson podcast episodeNational Museum of American ReligionZeyneb Sayilgan blog The Big Kahuna movieTranscript on BuzzsproutSocial Media links for Méli:Website – the Talking with God ProjectMeli's emailLinkedIn – Meli SolomonFacebook – Meli SolomonFollow the podcast!The Living Our Beliefs podcast is part of the Talking with God Project.

Trae Bodge is a successful lifestyle writer and TV commentator who made the brave leap from beauty brand founder to creating her own unique space in retail and shopping expertise. I loved discussing our shared experiences of separating our identities from our corporate personas. After Trae left RetailMeNot, she discovered that her value wasn't tied to a corporate email address or brand name, but rather to their skills, relationships, and reliability. One of my favorite moments was discussing those inevitable TV mishaps, like when Steve Harvey and Rachael Ray mispronounced Trae's name on air. But what really resonated was Trae's advice about finding "white space" - not just following your passion, but identifying what people actually need and where there's room in the market. Her journey from beauty entrepreneur to becoming one of the go-to shopping experts for major networks is a testament to the power of reinvention and staying true to your expertise. And now, she's launching a foundation to help other midlife entrepreneurs, which perfectly exemplifies how success can come full circle into giving back.

How would you characterize the discussions? MR WITKOFF: It was positive, upbeat, constructive, everybody there to get to the right outcome, solution based. We discussed it afterwards.

Contact Scott from Bonsai MatsuCarving and bonsai seem to go hand in hand. I think everyone I have ever spoken to about bonsai over the years has mentioned carving at one time or another. And carving, good carving, takes skill and technique. Texture, the need to appear 'natural' and staying safe are all very important! How you work with an electric carving tool is crucial to your success and I'll let you know how I work with them to help minimise collateral damage to the rest of the bonsai.Support the showBecome a podcast supporter and show the Bonsai Love (it's really appreciated) ❤️https://www.buzzsprout.com/263290/supportWhere to find Bonsai Matsu:InstagramFacebookYouTube Web

Data centers are filled with servers, basically a bunch of beefed-up computers stacked on top of each other in buildings that can be as big as warehouses. So they need a lot of electricity. And there are more of those projects in the works. For example, Meta has said it's planning to build out at least one data center that’s going to be so big it could cover a good chunk of Manhattan. Wall Street Journal tech reporter Meghan Bobrowsky explained to Hughes what kinds of companies are benefitting from this data center construction boom.

Another reminder post from Mark Hickie (@MPHickie) where he shares this: “A message for today … Simplify your life! It's easy to get caught up in the chaos of life, but taking time for self-care really makes a difference. Carving out time for self-care helps recharge our mental & physical energy.” The post is all about this quote from Quotes Cafe - “Go offline, focus on yourself, treat yourself, exercise, go into nature, watch the birds in the sky, drink water, pray, laugh until you cry, cry until you laugh again, dress how you want, and set your boundaries. Be free.” So many outstanding reminders here for me to focus on, especially the going offline part a bit more. Yep, I need that. I think so many of us do. So many things we can do to better ourselves. Connecting to the previous episode, these are habits I need to do more of for sure as a part of my own system of living.
