Do you know the difference between curiosity and nosiness? How do you feel about people being nosy? Are you nosy at times? Humans are born with curiosity. Through curiosity we learn, grow and evolve. In this episode Kathi and Daisy discuss this topic in depth and give insight how we can respond to humans who appear to be rather nosy than curios. Enjoy!

We chop up a DEEP question that a listener sent in! Send in your voice memos to fromthegravepodcast@gmail.comSeeing and feeling expansion. Creation - Maintenance - Destruction. The Universe is structured in us as it is in Nature. Consciousness is constantly going through expansion and contraction. Getting pushed into the wilderness. Where your greatest purpose in life is there will be fear. When you get involved with Nature; She nods back. Life is in a constant state of change. "How does God keep you sober"?The doomed nature of addiction/alcoholism. How we get sober does not make any sense. The disease of addiction/alcoholism does not make any sense. It is a walking riddle. If we suffer from something much greater than ourselves then our solution must also come from something much Greater. Flying the UFO with no answer. The function of the 12 steps. Contemplating something great. Opening yourself up to new knowledge. "Let he that be without sin cast the first stone". Curiosity helps you go inward. The Bhagavad Gita. Knowing your faults and continuing to practice them. When the pain gets great enough. Watching the ones you love go through pain. The story of the Gods are within us.https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC93nT0ACHVfQGW5-BaLNZMQ https://www.instagram.com/fromthegravepodcast/https://fromthegraveco.com

Alex was crushing it early in his career, ending up on Wall Street after getting a combined JD/MBA.  But after a few years, he went looking for his next mountain, aiming his ambition at the tech sector. He ended up co-founding LiveOak, a company he eventually sold in 2020. After that, he struggled to determine what was next and finally decided to walk away from more than a million dollars. Now he's embracing non-doing, reconnecting with his passions, and figuring out what's next.

Today, Debbie speaks with bestselling author Abigail Thomas whom Stephen King calls “the Emily Dickinson of memoirists."Her new memoir, titled "Still Life at Eighty," is a series of loosely connected essays on the topic of aging. But it's so much more than that. Abby, as she insisted that Debbie call her, is funny and frank and profane as she talks about the good and the bad of aging. Yes, there are aches and pains. No, she doesn't mind being old. In fact, she loves it. She no longer cares what people think of her and - just for the record - she is not afraid of death. As she puts it: "Please God, let there be no afterlife."In this conversation she and Debbie talk about her writing (Debbie finds it "transcendent"), her relationship to time and memories, her longterm friendship with literary agent Chuck Verrill (who died in early 2022), and why she loves working with clay.Abby is the daughter of renowned science writer Lewis Thomas, the mother of four children and a grandmother of 12. She is the bestselling author of several previous memoirs, including "A Three Dog Life" and "What Comes Next and How to Like It." She lives in Woodstock, NY with her dogs, where she writes and teaches writing. Mentioned in this episode or useful:Her website: Abigail ThomasStill Life at Eighty: The Next Interesting Thing by Abigail Thomas (Golden Notebook Press (February 28, 2023)What Comes Next and How to Like It: A Memoir by Abigail Thomas (Scribner; 2015)A Three Dog Life: A Memoir by Abigail Thomas (Mariner Books; 2006)The Next Interesting Thing from Abigail Thomas (Next Avenue, March 9, 2023)Hope?

Jesse Griffiths is an Austin-based chef, author, hunter, and fisherman, and he's also the co-owner of Dai Due Butcher Shop & Supper Club and the New School of Traditional Cookery. Jesse's work has been featured everywhere from The New York Times to the Joe Rogan Experience, and he's a regular contributor to Steven Rinella's MeatEater. As an author, Jesse has received great praise for his two books, the James Beard Award-finalist cookbook, "Afield: A Chef's Guide to Preparing and Cooking Wild Game and Fish," as well as his most recent title, "The Hog Book: A Chef's Guide to Hunting, Preparing, and Cooking Wild Pigs." - Born and raised in Denton, Texas, Jesse grew up obsessed with fishing– he loved catching the fish, but he also loved cooking and eating them. As a teenager, he started working in restaurants and became more and more interested in cooking– an interest that he pursued full-time after graduating from high school. Propelled by a deep curiosity and a desire to broaden his perspective, he would save up his money and then travel, studying food and cooking in a wide variety of cultures around the world. Eventually, Jesse combined all of his unique personal and professional experiences and opened his own restaurant, Dia Due, which features food that is “produced in a fair and equitable way, represent(s) local culinary traditions, and support(s) farmers and ranchers who are striving to improve the quality of our food.” - I've been a fan of Jesse's work for many years, so I was thrilled when we were introduced by a mutual friend. Over the course of our hour together, we covered a lot, include: Jesse's upbringing in Texas and his early days in cooking, the importance of international travel, the challenges of getting Dai Due off the ground, the importance of humility and curiosity, a deep dive into wild hogs in Texas, his approach to writing, Jesse's recent obsession with wild turkeys, and, of course, Jesse offers a ton of great book recommendations. - I loved this conversation and was blown away by Jesse's kindness and humility. I really appreciate his taking the time to chat with me, and I know you'll learn a lot from Jesse's fascinating life story.  Enjoy! --- Dai Due New School of Traditional Cookery The Hog Book by Jesse Griffiths Afield by Jesse Griffiths Full episode notes and links: https://mountainandprairie.com/jesse-griffiths/ --- Join Ed for five days on Utah's Green River for his Freeflow Institute Course: PLACE, POWER, PURPOSE --- TOPICS DISCUSSED: 3:15 - Jesse's upbringing 7:30 - How Jesse got involved in cooking 12:15 - When Jesse first left the USA 13:30 - The importance of international travel 16:45 - Jesse's mentors 24:15 - Getting Dai Due started 27:15 - How Jesse learned to be a manager 31:15 - The source of Jesse's humility 36:15 - Jesse's work with Texas wild hogs 50:15 - Jesse's ethos in writing 51:30 - Jesse's recent work with turkeys 1:01:15 - Jesse's book recommendations --- ABOUT MOUNTAIN & PRAIRIE: Mountain & Prairie - All Episodes Mountain & Prairie Shop Mountain & Prairie on Instagram Upcoming Events About Ed Roberson Support Mountain & Prairie Leave a Review on Apple Podcasts

How can we foster curiosity in learners of all ages? Andrea Craddock of TeachBeyond School Services introduces us to the topic of holy curiosity and how we can integrate this into our classrooms and conversations. “The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when one contemplates the mysteries of eternity... Never lose a holy curiosity." - Albert Einstein “Cultivating a Holy Curiosity through Social Studies” Article “Looking to the world around us, words are used like ‘madness' and ‘folly.' We see that if we can satisfy our curiosity through God's Word, we eventually end up in this place of transformation.” “We don't want to teach students what to think; we want to teach them how to think.” “It's a lot easier to create opportunities for the younger ones because they are so curious about life, whereas the older ones, for them it's really more about helping them find what they're curious about.” “When a student asks a question in the classroom, you don't just immediately give the answer.” “We want them to take what it is that they are learning in the classroom and be able to apply that to life.” “There's a lot of good that comes out of curiosity, and that's how we were made, so we want to be supporting that and fostering that.” What's changing our lives: Keane: Scooter walks Heather: Family reunion Andrea: Multi-generational Bible study Weekly Spotlight: Timothy Academy We'd love to hear from you! podcast@teachbeyond.org Podcast Website: https://teachbeyond.org/podcast  Learn about TeachBeyond: https://teachbeyond.org/

Do you ever feel like there's something more out there for your life but don't know how to get to it? Every day we face countless choices that can either take us down a path of adventure and fulfillment or a road to monotony. Most people tend to forego the former; they succumb to safety and security rather than allowing their curiosity to lead them down uncharted paths. It's an undeniable fact: following your curiosity leads to powerful and meaningful outcomes. In this episode, I discuss why you need to start following your curiosity and how to start trusting it.

Are you living your life trying to achieve or maintain an image, or are you creating a life you truly enjoy? In this world we are surrounded my images. Take a simple scroll through social media and it's hard to miss the fact that so many of us try to only show the “best” versions of ourselves. How much of what you choose in your life is because you are seeking to have more of that “ideal” image? But, is that ever truly being you? In this podcast episode our host, Sarah Grandinetti, and our amazing guest, Brendon Watt, dive deep into the journey of actual vulnerability. They extrapolate about the pursuit of creating, achieving and maintaining an image and the amount of rightness and avoidance that you must have in your life to have it in place.  Warning: this conversation might fry your brain! What if you didn't have to hide what you truly desire? What if you didn't have to maintain an image? What would it be like to live a life of vulnerability and unapologetically being you? Take aways:  - Start acknowledging where you are choosing an image of yourself and ask: what would it take to be more of me here?  - Where else can you choose vulnerability in your life instead of having to be “right”?

Chris Voss has an extremely impressive resume and bio. He's used many years of experience in international crisis and high-stakes negotiations to develop a unique program that applies globally proven techniques to the business world through his company, which is called The Black Swan Group. Prior to 2008, Chris was the lead international kidnapping negotiator for the FBI, as well as the FBI's hostage negotiation representative for the National Security Council's hostage working group. During his career, he's also represented the US Government as an expert in kidnapping at two international conferences sponsored by the G8. Before becoming the FBI's lead international kidnapping negotiator, Chris served as the lead crisis negotiator for the New York City division of the FBI, and he really was in some precarious negotiations and he talks a lot about those experiences in his wonderful book, which is called Never Split the Difference, which has sold over two million copies. Chris was a member of the New York City joint terrorist task force for fourteen years; Chris has been in the weeds, in the trenches, fighting against some of the toughest, most difficult stuff that our country has faced. During his 24-year tenure, Chris has really experienced so many different situations. He's trained not just on the field and in the trenches, but he's also gone to Scotland Yard and Harvard Law School so he could learn more about negotiation. He's also been a teacher; he's taught business negotiation in MBA programs as an adjunct professor at the University of Southern California's Marshall School of Business, and at Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business. In addition to that, he's gone all over the world to teach as a guest lecturer from places like Harvard University to the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, and even to places like Germany to teach what he's learned along his journey and his experience. In today's conversation, Chris will talk about experiences as a negotiator, whether it's kidnapping or whether it's something in your business, and I even get into negotiation with my children. I think you'll find that he's definitely someone who's had applied experience, there's no question about that, but he also loves to read, he loves to listen to podcasts, he loves to learn from science and research; Chris is this amazing blend of authentic, real, street smart, coupled by a humility and a strong, strong desire to learn that I think you will connect with. I know you're going to learn from Chris, I certainly did.   Chris had a number of amazing insights during our conversation. Some of them include: “Nobody is going to be great at negotiation first thing in the morning” (8:30). “Mirroring works great with kids of all ages when you're trying to get them to talk” (8:50). “'No' makes people feel safe and secure” (9:20). “People are smarter when they're laughing and they're having a good time” (9:45). “Trying to get people to say ‘yes' is a bad idea” (11:10). “'Yes' is nothing without ‘how'” (14:15). “Open-ended questions are designed to create thinking, not to get an answer” (16:00). “Helping people get better. Helping people solve their problems. Helping people accelerate their lives. [That's what excites me].” (18:40). “What people don't say is as important as what they do say” (19:10). “Sniff out the people that are trying to cut your throat, trying to exploit your interests, and walk away” (21:10). “Best chance of success means you're not always going to be successful” (22:30). “When things go bad, you have two choices: you can grow, or you can quit” (22:35). “I don't think you really learn anything when you win” (24:20). “You can't read enough. You can't learn enough. You can't listen enough” (27:15). “High IQ people have trouble being good negotiators” (28:40). “Curiosity is a superpower” (29:45). “You're 31% smarter in a positive frame-of-mind” (29:55). “It's impossible to be curious and in a negative frame-of-mind at the same time” (30:05). “Empathy is really about demonstrating understanding” (35:45). “Empathy is not about liking or agreeing with the other side” (36:35). “Data improves design. We execute and learn constantly” (43:10). “Someone once asked me ‘Describe yourself in three words.” And my respond was “deeply flawed human” (45:05). “[Listening skills] are perishable” (45:45). “Compromise is lazy. Compromise is not collaborative” (46:55). “Don't let your ego get in the way of a better idea” (47:30). “Never be mean to somebody who can hurt you by doing nothing” (58:25).   Additionally, you can purchase Chris's book, Never Split the Difference, anywhere books are sold. You can also find the website for the Black Swan Group here, where you can find a ton of information and also sign up for a free newsletter. Lastly, you can follow Chris on Instagram as well.

Human nature tends to be such that we want to figure out who we are, who “our people'' are, and then settle into whatever feels easiest and most familiar. What's more, psychologically speaking, our brains appear to be hard-wired to seek out people who look, think, behave, and even believe similarly to ourselves. But on the other side of that coin, an increasing number of people are discovering that an even deeper faith life has become possible by leaning into differences and even celebrating them. On this week's podcast, we talk about how enriching it has been to learn about - and share in - the faith traditions of others. Join us for a dialogue centered around the practice of nurturing our interspiritual friendships.NOTE:  At The Contemplative Life, we take seriously our commitment to bring a quality experience to our podcast listeners.

Friendship is a dynamic force that holds the capacity to mend some of the broken pieces of our stories. Today on the podcast, Hannah and Nicole sit down with writer, speaker, and mental health advocate, Chinae Alexander, to dig into the beauty and power of ‘chosen family'. As a content creator, Chinae shares a lot of her life with her online community, and together we discuss the nuances of this digital space in tandem with the nature of the community she has built with the deep personal friendships she has cultivated over the course of many years. We talk about the practice of presence, the concept of curiosity as a pathway to meaningful relationships, and how every moment shared together—from birth and death to our watershed moments and the simple, everyday mundane ones—carries the potential to move us from friendship to family.

If we're honest, we often take pleasure in judging others and our culture offers us plenty of opportunities to be judgmental. Sadly, even within our judgy culture, Christians are often known for being especially judgy. But in today's sermon, we'll see that Jesus calls his followers to be a lot less judgy and a lot more curious about the people around us. We'll learn why judginess is especially toxic for Christians, what we miss when we're being judgmental, and how we can be better. Join us as we continue our series, ‘Different.'   Memory Verse: “Don't be conformed to the patterns of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds so that you can figure out what God's will is—what is good and pleasing and mature.” - Romans 12:2 (CEB)   Baptism/Renewal Interest Form: https://rb.gy/kdfnf Share: Know someone who needs this message right now?

Yes you too can fall in love with playing the piccolo! This week on Talking Flutes, Jean-Paul speaks with Egor Egorkin, the Principal Piccolo player of the Berliner Philharmonika. In this insightful episode, Egor speaks about the process of creating a balance of pitch and emotion, how practicing whistle tones can really help your piccolo practice,  and the importance of finding the right colour in the intonation process.   For Egor, being constantly curious with the piccolo and searching for new sounds, colours and feelings keeps him excited about the instrument.

Cultural curiosity refers specifically to the wonder, discovery and understanding of people from different cultural backgrounds in the ways they feel, think, communicate, behave and interact. Val Fontaine shares some of the incredible experiences she's had along the way - and around the world - because of her interest in different cultures.

Alison Zak is an author, yoga teacher, environmental educator and anthropologist, and in her self-written bio, she also adds, importantly, that she is an animal. Her new book Wild Asana launches June 27th and is a delightful mix of wildlife science, Hindu mythology, Eastern philosophy, and personal stories that help us draw connections between our bodies, our minds, and the animals that inspire our practices. As if writing and teaching doesn't keep her busy enough, Alison also founded the Human-Beaver Coexistence Fund, a nonprofit that educates the public about the benefits of coexisting with beavers and provides resources and address human-beaver conflict.Alison has a long history connecting with animals, and when her primate studies took her across the world to Indonesia, she learned firsthand how nuanced the relationship can be between humans and non-human animals, and she began to grasp the importance of deconditioning what we're taught through society—that humans are superior and that other animals are only worth saving if they provide value to us. Of course, if you take the time to learn about different animals, you realize that each species possesses remarkable traits and skills that are integral to the ecosystems they live in. And if you do want to look through the lens of value-to-humans, it can be argued that every animal provides value because we are all intricately connected within the cycles that create our planet, our food, water, air, and soil. This truth has been known since the beginning of time, and modern research continues to publish findings daily that remind us of our interconnectedness.Alison's creative outlets and offerings suggest powerful, yet incredibly simple ways that we can begin to connect with our fellow animals, not only to understand our true role in the greater interdependent ecosystem of the planet, but to also experience the often sought-after feelings of awe, wonder, and unity that we go looking for in spiritual practice, travel or relationship. In her new book, Wild Asana, she teaches people how to connect with and embody animals through the yoga poses that are named after them: scorpion, cobra, fish and downward-facing dog, to name a few. She uses the framework of the Three C's: Curiosity, Compassion, and Connection, suggesting that the last category of connection can be taken even deeper, practicing yoga with a capital Y, meaning union, and that if we can reach that state of union with another animal, there's no longer a question as to why this other being is important, because he or she is me. There's no separation.Come with us, into a wild and wonderful interview that will leave you feeling inspired to learn more about the animals you encounter in your everyday life or those you have a secret curiosity about. I guarantee that after listening, you'll want to go out into the world and experience it for the epic, magical place it is and remember that PLAY is one the most primal animal actions, shared by almost every species, certainly other animals like us in the mammal classification.Alison Zak WebsiteHuman-Beaver Coexistence FundSupport the showConnect with Feathered Pipe Ranch: FacebookInstagramSubscribe to our NewsletterCheck out 2023 Retreats

Why is change so hard? Maybe it's because we resist and judge it rather than embrace change with curiosity, honesty, and patience while being kind to ourselves along the way. In this week's episode, we'll explore different approaches like tracking progress and seeking support, to help you create meaningful and lasting lifestyle changes. Some of the key factors in creating change are self-awareness, honesty, and self-reflection so we can clearly see and understand our own actions or the lack of them. Listen now to hear more about: The significance of being honest without judgment and how to approach change with curiosity and explore the gap between what we think we're doing and what we're actually doing. Questioning the duration of consistent efforts…how long is "long enough" to see results? Creating time for yourself to track and evaluate factual information and gain a deeper understanding of your actions. Embracing curiosity and flexibility: the importance of making adjustments, exploring different methods, and giving yourself grace as you navigate the journey of lifestyle changes after breast cancer.
