Now more than ever, treasurers looking to build stronger teams and advance their own careers need to do far more than master core technical skills.

In a conversation with NeuGroup founder and CEO Joseph Neu, Mr. Richards shares lessons learned from three decades in treasury recruiting—along with tips for professionals preparing for their next step, whether or not they're actively searching.

14th June 2021 (Satsangs from the Archives) These are teachings and pointers from ongoing NDA(Non-duality awareness)/Advaitic Satsangs held at Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi Centre in Melbourne, Australia. Om Namo Bhagavate Sri Arunachala Ramanaya !

NBN host Hollay Ghadery speaks with cultural icons, Anne Waldman (The Iovis Trilogy: Colors in the Mechanism of Concealment) and Andrew Whiteman (Broken Social Scene) who have collaborated to create Your Devotee in Rags—a metamorphic sonic poetry LP released by Siren Recordings in 2025 and is available from Spotify. The conversation starts with a discussion of Anne's epic, The Iovis Trilogy (Coffee House Press, 2011). Published for the first time in its entirety, this major epic poem assures Anne Waldman's place in the pantheon of contemporary poetry. The Iovis Trilogy, Waldman's monumental feminist epic, traverses epochs, cultures, and genres to create a visionary call to poetic arms. Iovis details the misdeeds of the Patriarch, and with a fierce imagination queries and subverts his warmongering. All of Waldman's themes come into focus—friendship, motherhood, politics, and Buddhist wisdom. This is epic poetry that goes beyond the old injunction “to include history”—its effort is to change history. Your Devotee in Rags is a missive to this age of patriarchal power, its songs and poems are designed to specifically confront that power and hold it to account. Taking such activist inspiration from musicians like Lido Pimienta and Tanya Tagaaq, musically YDIR blends acoustic and electronic genres, waltzes, laments, and Pauls Boutique-era Beastie Boys mash-ups all with the intent of creating a new artistic headspace: sonic poetry. The cultural direction is forward, the earbuds open up the stereo field, listening to YDIR is, in a word, empowering. More about Your Devotee in Rags: Your Devotee in Rags is a sonic poetry collaboration between Anne Waldman and Andrew Whiteman; an act of desire and metamorphosis expanding the performative vision of being at the horizon of new experience, stripped down, exploring the turf, through poetry and spiritual yearning. Anne says: “Wizard Hal Willner would be proud of us companions in the vibrational matrix. Comrades in a studio of subtle suspense, and where were we headed? A magnificent voyage! Tender, rugged, true. I met Andrew Whiteman, genius player, composer, scholar, in one of Hal's unpredictable alchemical laboratories. We instantly bonded as mavens of poetry and its attendant orality, dedicated to the passion of epic life that is the source of this album, the 1000 plus pages of the feminist canto: Iovis Trilogy: Colors in the Mechanism of Concealment; passages plucked to be re-imagined in ambient explosive word-sound. On the Yantzse, in a strip club, a maelstrom of memory honoring precursor male poets, dressed in the rags of Celtic hags, so much more as mendicant, witty siren, compassionate lover, exploding empires of patriarchy and war. A kind of mythic hospitality.” Andrew says: “It was filmmaker Ron Mann and producer Hal Wilner who showed me the way. Hal was my guiding presence—whip smart, funny, gentle, empathic. This album is dedicated to him.” More about Anne Waldman: Anne Waldman is a living legend. Poet, performer, professor, editor, cultural activist, grandmother, and co-founder with Allen Ginsberg of the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics. Former director of the Poetry Project. Tireless author of over 40 books, her trademark energy coils ever outward, always seeking to reveal the four-fold vision that we have largely lost. More about Andrew Whiteman: Andrew Whiteman is a musician and mythopoetics scholar from Montreal, Canada. He writes and performs in Broken Social Scene, Apostle of Hustle, AroarA, and Poets' Workout Sound System. He is a co-founder of Siren Recordings. Learn more about your ad choices.

How do we lovingly tend to ourselves when we feel unappreciated, disrespected, and invalidated for who we are at our core?How do re-source ourselves and re-member who we are?Feeling unloved is a universal experience. We know every human has experienced it, and yet it can be so challenging to move through. As we approach this year's Venus Cazimi, in the middle of the Venus Retrograde, I shared my personal story growing up with bullying, what got me through, and what I learned about loving myself when I didn't receive the love I wanted from my surroundings.Special thanks to my mentor Ariana Felix who has been helping me remember the rigorous Practice of Love.

What medicine does hard astrology carry for us?How do we deepen our relationship with self, others, and the world through being with challenges?The hardship of life is often mirrored by astrology.One of the questions I consistently get as an astrologer is: "I'm going through something hard. Do you see that in my chart? What should I do to get out of it?"Usually, the answer is: yes, I see it in the chart.But whether the issue gets resolved through engaging astrology is a much trickier question. Sometimes, having astrological context inspires creative problem-solving. Other times, it leads into seemingly endless spirals of confusions, what-ifs, and so-whats – which can amplify feelings of powerlessness.In this episode, I shared my take on how to be with hard astrology.If you're feeling overwhelmed by the intense astrology of March 2025 – this one's for you.

What questions and explorations are most relevant to us in 2025, given the astrology and energetic signatures? Who might we become in the face of upheaval and change?Over the course of two episodes, Kelsey Rose Tortorice and I are joining forces to discuss the astrology of 2025.On this episode, Part 1, we cover the undertones: Pluto, Neptune, Uranus, and Chiron.Meanwhile, Part 2, on Kelsey's podcast The Maia Games, covers the mid tones: Jupiter, Saturn, and The Lunar Nodes.With all three outer planets shifting signs, 2025 is a year of significant astrological changes. Over the past few years of knowing Kelsey, I've been deeply impacted by her perspectives, creative fluency with astrology, and visceral kinship with the outer planets. She was the first person that came to mind and this conversation was as electric as I dreamed them to be.Listen to Part 2 on Kelsey's podcast, The Maia Games.Timestamps:Kelsey's bio:Kelsey is a post-capitalist astrologer, teacher, human design experiMentor, and community initiator. Ruled by a 7th house Jupiter in Gemini, they are a student-teacher of the maia; seeking to understand and universalize the mechanics of reality within the context of individuality, relationship, cosmos, and consciousness as a whole. Kelsey's frequency facilitates upheaval; disrupting homogenized programming and re-orienting people to their differentiated truth and separateness as a means to arriving to connection & inherent wholeness. With reverence for differentiation and a knack for universalization, they embrace the simultaneous uniqueness and sameness of each human experience. Their work incorporates various modalities, frameworks, and spiritual teachings in honoring and navigating this apparent contradiction.Kelsey accompanies others on their journeys towards remembering what they Know, and invites deeper levels of autonomy, authenticity, faith, freedom, and surrender along the way.Kelsey's Links:Website: https://www.kelseyrosetort.com/IG: https://www.instagram.com/kelseyrosetort/ I currently offer 2025 Clarity Alchemy, a 2-session package designed to help you cut through the internal fog, clarify your desires and intentions for 2025, and connect with your internal compass.

Here in Jagannātha Purī, the chief of the devotees, Haridāsa Ṭhākura —in general society, which was concerned with caste, creed, rules, and regulations, Haridāsa Ṭhākura was not well considered within the Hindu culture. And even with Advaita Ācārya back in Navadvīpa, when performing a śrāddha ceremony at the end, you're supposed to offer the prasāda to the most qualified Vaiṣṇava that's available. And Advaita Ācārya would take that śrāddha-pātra, and He would give it to Haridāsa Ṭhākura. And Haridāsa Ṭhākura said, "This isn't going to look good on Facebook, social media. They're going to put out criticism that, 'Why are you giving it to a Muslim-bodied person?'" And Advaita Ācārya said, "What Caitanya Mahāprabhu said, what the Bhāgavatam says: kirāta-hūṇāndhra-pulinda-pulkaśā, ābhīra-śumbhā yavanāḥ khasādayaḥ, ye 'nye ca pāpā yad-apāśrayāśrayāḥ, śudhyanti tasmai prabhaviṣṇave namaḥ (SB 2.4.18)—the only qualification is that one is surrendered to the Lord, and by the power of the Lord's mercy, that person becomes an exalted soul, not by some birth or social position.

This interview had two foci: ISKCON and Tulsi Gabbard's Connection to Krishna Hinduism and his new academic book on music and its role in psychedelics states. Gelberg was a Krishna devotee for 17 years and has written about his experiences with the cult and why he exited. He is now a successful photographer and author. We discussed the more recent finding that Tulsi Gabbard, nominated by Trump to be Director of National Intelligence, shows ties to Krishna Hinduism and ISKCON. Chris Butler, who is the guru of Tulsi Gabbard, was a disciple of the Krishna movement and Prabhupada. The group is known for its homophobia. “The Krishna movement also is very misogynistic. They try to hide that. They don't like talking about it. They know it's not popular, but if you go to Prabhupada's books, he repeats what he learned from the Hindu tradition about women being lesser and needing to be always under the control of a man and less spiritually adept than men are” Steven said. He then expressed concerns about ties with this organization and what that may mean by Gabbard's beliefs around these topics. In addition to his spiritual and academic education after leaving the cult, Gelberg continued to tune into an evolving “Psychedelic Renaissance” as the government began to loosen regulations allowing for legitimate clinical studies and inspiring the creation, by growing numbers of colleges and universities, of programs and centers for the study of psychedelics and their therapeutic effects.

How do we recognize our wounds as portals to new realities? How might accepting and tending to feelings of powerlessness birth deeper devotions of our paths? Where are we creating artificial separations between pain and beauty?

In contrast, Venus moves into Pisces.

One of the most profound conversations I heard was once when I was driving somewhere, hopefully to the temple, and I was listening to one of Prabhupada's conversations. It stuck in my mind so much that I thought I'd pass it on to you, and it goes like this: It was in Honolulu, 1976. Devotee: "So if we have to wake again, then there's no reason, why should we have to stop birth and death?" Prabhupada had been describing that dying is like going to sleep for some time. So the devotee was playing devil's advocate. Prabhupada: "So, you have no experience. Do you sleep perpetually, whole day and night? Why do you wake up? Is it not your experience that you sleep at night and wake up at daytime?" Devotee: "Yes, but if I'm going to wake up again, then why should I want to stop it? I go to sleep, I wake up." Prabhupada: "No, but you're waking up like a dog. That is the privilege. You sleep perpetually, not perpetually, for seven months, and then you wake up as a dog. The body is changed, and you go on barking—that you do not know. That is ignorance." Devotee: "Krishna, that's amazing. You go to sleep in a human body, and you wake up in a dog's body." Prabhupada: "Ah, that's it." Devotee: "When I wake up the next morning, I'm not afraid to go to sleep because I know that I will wake up. So if I'm going to die, and I know..." Prabhupada: "Die means you sleep as a man and wake up as a dog—that is dying." The part that stuck in my mind was when the devotee exclaimed after Prabhupada said that. He said, "Oh, you go to sleep as a man and wake up as a dog." It reminded me of a story I read in my childhood about a man who wakes up as a cockroach. It quite alarmed me, actually—was it a cockroach, or maybe it was a centipede? Somebody can check on that, but he was trying to figure out all his legs and arms—a famous author. There's a stark reality to death, and that is, it's not a joking matter or something to be taken lightly. When you do go to sleep or you die, you transfer to another body, and at that point, it's out of your hands. A devotee who had been arrested for trespassing and solicitation (a pretty common offense amongst devotees) he recalled being put in the back of the paddy wagon after having been handcuffed. There's this sense, once your hands are behind your back, and you're being pushed into a paddy wagon—where am I going? Don't worry about it. You're just going, and there's nothing you can do about it at that point. He recalled to me the feeling of helplessness that he had at that point. It's like, now it's out of my hands. Previously, I could have done something about it, but now it's out of my hands. So although death isn't final in any way because we're eternal, still there's a finality to the destination that we're going next. The only time that we can do something about it is before we go into the death throes. Even then, it's a little late because whatever we've cultivated throughout our lifetime will generally manifest quite strongly in the last days. It's hard to turn it around, so to speak. That is our habits, our way of thinking, and what we're attracted to at the last moment. Just as Prabhupada this morning brought up about taking a test, when you go in, you don't do it two minutes before they tell you to put everything away and pick up a number two pencil. You do it weeks before, months before. Hopefully, you're on track when you walk in. It's like a final exam, and Prabhupada brought our attention to this again and again, talking about how serious it is or how seriously we should take it because that's the final exam.

Devotional Fanscapes: Bollywood Star Deities, Devotee-Fans, and Cultural Politics in India and Beyond (Rowman and Littlefield, 2023) examines how fans worship film stars as deities. Focusing on temples dedicated to Bollywood (Hindi cinema) stars and the artifacts produced by Hindi and Tamil cinema fans, Shalini Kakar illustrates how the fan constructs their identity as a devotee and that of the star as a deity. Extending her research from India to the US, Kakar highlights the transnational dimensions of this phenomenon to demonstrate the degree to which devotional fan practices (fan-bhakti) and fan artifacts can help us rethink art, religion, and politics. With its interdisciplinary approach, this book addresses how fan-bhakti is performed in the global landscape, in the process augmenting new religious models and identities based on the idea of the “cinematic sacred.” For more information, go here.

Who is Mars, the warrior, in the primordial waters of Cancer? What are their challenges and opportunities? What wisdom might they have for us?For those of you paying attention, Mars is spending a very long time in Cancer between Fall 2024 - Spring 2025. In anticipation of the upcoming Mars Retrograde, I've been noticing subtle messages and telltale signs from Mars in Cancer. In this episode, I'm sharing a transmission I received on Mars in Cancer when I facilitated my Mars container, EYES ON THE EDGE. While I'm unlikely to run EYES ON THE EDGE again until another dignified Mars transit (Fall 2025), I encourage you to join our waitlist if you'd like to be the first to hear about it.

How does working with our emotional pain assist with returning us to innocence?The theme for September is Arriving at Simplicity. The route to simplicity is often anything but simple. It can be riddled with confusion, chaos, and doubt. In this episode, I share some contemplations for us to return to throughout the month. September 2024 starts with a New Moon in Virgo. It ends with the Sun conjoining the North Node in Libra. In between, we have the Full Moon in Pisces, which ushers the second eclipse season of the year, and Mars entering Cancer.  If you enjoyed this podcast, consider booking a reading with me.

Today we're diving deep into the world of short films with two incredibly talented filmmakers. Up first, we have the esteemed producer turned director Richard J. Bosner, whose latest project, Devotee, is a gripping psychological thriller that will stick with you for days. With a background producing critically acclaimed films like Fruitvale Station and Black Bear, Bosner has assembled a dream team for Devotee, including breakout child star Grant Feely and a post-production crew fresh off Megalopolis. But that's not all! Director Nicholas Santos also joins us to discuss his haunting short film, Strange Creatures. A tale of grief and longing, the film stars Quinn Jackson and Sean-Michael Wilkinson and is as emotional as it is terrifying. Both Devotee and Strange Creatures are making their world premieres at Hollyshorts this weekend For more information about both films including how to screen them go to hollyshorts.com. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/followingfilms/support
