Podcasts about Dialogue

What happens when senior executives step into a room and speak with radical candor? In this episode of Leveraging Thought Leadership, host Peter Winick sits down with Ken Banta, Founder and CEO of the Vanguard Network, to explore how real leaders grow stronger through dialogue—not monologues. Ken doesn't just advise on leadership—he builds ecosystems where executives learn directly from each other. The Vanguard Network creates peer-to-peer forums where GCs, CEOs, and senior leaders share their toughest challenges and unfiltered lessons. The power comes not from lectures or PowerPoint, but from raw, honest conversation. Members of his network walk away with two powerful outcomes. First, practical insights they can use immediately—solutions drawn from peers who've been there before. Second, the relief of knowing they're not alone. When a board chair demands instant answers, having the confidence that others face the same issues is invaluable. These conversations create resilience, credibility, and a stronger sense of leadership presence. Ken also shows how these networks spark new thought leadership. Dialogue around real problems fuels fresh ideas, posts, and even books like his "Seeing Around Corners". This isn't theory—it's leadership in action, captured and shared for broader impact. The results are tangible. Leaders leave with new strategies, new allies, and sometimes even new career opportunities. One member walked peers through a cyberattack disaster, openly admitting mistakes and lessons. Another two struck a career-changing deal over dinner. This is thought leadership at its highest level—intimate, applied, and deeply human. If you want to see how conversation transforms into influence, this episode is for you. Three Key Takeaways: • Dialogue beats monologue. Executives gain more from candid peer conversations than from lectures or presentations. • Leaders don't stand alone. Sharing challenges in trusted forums provides reassurance and practical solutions. • Conversations spark influence. Real stories and exchanges fuel new thought leadership, stronger presence, and fresh opportunities. If you found Ken Banta's episode insightful, you'll want to keep the momentum going with Karen Leland's conversation on the performance of thought leadership. Ken showed how peer-to-peer dialogue fuels fresh insights and builds executive presence. Karen takes it a step further, exploring how leaders can deliver their ideas with clarity, confidence, and authenticity so they truly land with an audience. Together, these two episodes connect the what and the how of thought leadership: Ken highlights the power of conversations that spark ideas, while Karen shows you how to perform those ideas so they inspire action. Listen to Karen's episode to learn practical strategies for elevating your communication, amplifying your presence, and making your thought leadership unforgettable.

In this episode of Beyond the Letter, Adam is joined by Sammy and Jermaine for a powerful conversation on the connection between physical health and spiritual well-being. Inspired by Luke 2:52—where we read that “Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man”—they reflect on the reality that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit.The discussion highlights how caring for our physical health directly impacts our ability to serve God and others. Through the story of one individual's weight loss journey, the episode draws out a moving metaphor for spiritual transformation: with God's strength and the support of community, even the greatest obstacles can be overcome. This conversation challenges us all to examine how we steward our bodies, and how greater discipline in health can unlock new doors for growth, service, and intimacy with God.--Connect with:Adam Mesa https://www.instagram.com/amesa/Samuel Rodriguez https://www.instagram.com/samuelmrod/Jermaine Baker https://www.instagram.com/verlonbakerofficial/--Don't forget to stay connected with us:Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4OvpFp9OB9_DgVdVVbXhFgInstagram https://www.instagram.com/beyond.theletter/Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/discover/beyond-the-letter--Get Aaron Levy's book, JOHN: 21 Daily Drips of Dialogue: https://a.co/d/7lGB90i--Have a question?

It's never too late to look at our lives, to set out on a new path, to begin the difficult and necessary and life-giving work of changing course, of learning how to bring ourselves in a way that deepens our depth, courage, love, kindness, truthfulness and contribution. It's never too late to learn something, to teach something. It's never too late to live - even in the very last moments of our lives. This conversation, marking the 8th anniversary of Turning Towards Life, takes us into an exploration of who we humans can be to one another, especially when we pay attention, when we remember our capacities to make worlds together, and when we commit to listen to one another with kindness, truthfulness, openness and care. This week's conversation is hosted, as always, by Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace. Episode Overview 00:00 Celebrating Eight Years of Turning Towards Life 05:48 Introducing the Source: Harold Schulweis 11:57 Personal Reflections on Change and Growth 17:47 The Power of Openness and Change 24:08 The Importance of Dialogue and Disagreement 29:52 Creating a World of Connection and Kindness Here's our source for this week: It's never too late The last word has not been spoken the last sentence has not been writ the final verdict is not in. It's never too late  to change my mind  my direction to say 'no' to the past  and 'yes' to the future  to offer remorse to ask and give forgiveness. It is never too late  to start all over again  to feel again  to love again  to hope again. It is never too late  to overcome despair  to turn sorrow into resolve  and pain into purpose. It is never too late to alter my world  not by magic incantations  or manipulations of the cards  or deciphering the stars  but by opening myself  to curative forces buried within  to hidden energies the powers in my interior self. In sickness and in dying,  it is never too late. Living, I teach  Dying, I teach how to face pain and fear. Others observe me, children, adults,  students of life and death  learn from my bearing, my posture,  my philosophy. It is never too late -  Some word of mine, some touch, some caress may be remembered  some gesture may play a role beyond the last  movement of my head and hand. Write it on my epitaph  that my loved ones be consoled. It is never too late.

Welcome back to the Homeward podcast.  I am honored to share today's conversation with the incredibly wise + paradigm-shifting David Bedrick.  David Bedrick, JD, Dipl. PW, is a teacher, counselor, and attorney. He grew up in a family marked by violence. While his father's brutality was physical and verbal, his mother's denial and gaslighting had its own covert power. This formative context introduced David early to the etiology of shame and instilled an urge to unshame. Professionally, he was on the faculty for the University of Phoenix and the Process Work Institute in the U.S. and Poland and is the founder of the Santa Fe Institute for Shame-based Studies where he trains therapists, coaches and healers and offers workshops for individuals to further their own personal development. David writes for Psychology Today and is the author of three books: Talking Back to Dr. Phil: Alternatives to Mainstream Psychology and Revisioning Activism: Bringing Depth, Dialogue, and Diversity to Individual and Social Change. His new book is You Can't Judge a Body by Its Cover: 17 Women's Stories of Hunger, Body Shame and Redemption. Today's conversation serves as its own masterclass in unshaming. You'll hear David help me tease out my own inner critic and walk us through the unshaming process to find the flower (the gift) in our pain.  I can't wait for you to listen.  Links Mentioned:  Order The Unshaming Way: https://a.co/d/dYTwNa7 Learn more on David's website: https://www.davidbedrick.com/  Follow him over on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/david.bedrick/    Tag me in your big shifts + takeaways: @amberlilyestrom Did you hear something you loved here today?!

In this episode of Beyond the Letter, Adam addresses the growing trend of viral videos and popular teachings that misrepresent the Bible. Many ideas sound spiritual but don't stand on the foundation of Scripture.Adam challenges us to dig deeper than surface-level faith, reminding us that God's Word is the ultimate standard of truth. Using examples from Exodus and beyond, he shows how misinterpretations can lead us astray—and how rightly dividing Scripture keeps us rooted in God's design. This conversation is a call to believers everywhere: don't just accept what sounds good, study God's Word for yourself. Only then can we stand firm, refute falsehood, and walk in truth.--Connect with:Pastor Adam Mesa https://www.instagram.com/amesa/--Don't forget to stay connected with us:Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4OvpFp9OB9_DgVdVVbXhFgInstagram https://www.instagram.com/beyond.theletter/Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/discover/beyond-the-letter--Get Aaron Levy's book, JOHN: 21 Daily Drips of Dialogue: https://a.co/d/7lGB90i--Have a question?

Send us a textOn September 10, 2025, Charlie Kirk was gunned down while having an open dialogue with college students on the campus of Utah Valley University.  He was killed for what he believed and for what he said.  The killer's text message said, “Some hate can't be negotiated.” The irony is that Charlie loved people enough to tell them the truth.  Charlie had a tremendous impact not just on college students but on people of all ages around the world.  He was friends with presidents, prime ministers, and other world leaders.  In his thirty-one years, he accomplished far more than most people accomplish in a lifetime. In this episode of Finish Strong, Brian, Terry, Dan, and John talk about the lessons we can learn from Charlie.Support the showFearless Faith Websiteffaith.orgTo leave a review - Open Finish Strong on the Apple Podcast app and scroll down until you see "Ratings & Reviews".

We welcome you to our recorded Gospel Study this week. In preparation for General Conference next week, we are proud to present Reflections on the April General Conference talks with various friends of Dialogue, who… The post Reflections on April 2025 General Conference appeared first on Dialogue Journal.

Aujourd'hui, Barbara Lefebvre, professeure d'histoire-géographie, Jean-Loup Bonnamy, professeur de philosophie, et Jeremstar, influenceur, débattent de l'actualité autour d'Alain Marschall et Olivier Truchot.

When God's people aren't lined up together, we lose ground. In this message, Pastor Jamie Nunnally shares how to avoid the football penalty "illegal formation," which is called when players aren't lined up correctly.Church, what if we're out of formation? What if we have the right players, play, and coach—but we're not aligned with each other?Spiritual illegal formation is choosing individuality over unity.Unity is harmony despite differences; uniformity is sameness. Too often, we value personal preference over kingdom purpose. But when we isolate instead of cooperate, we run our play, not God's. Unity isn't about looking the same—it's about looking in the same direction.The church's power comes from agreement.Matthew 18:19 says if two agree on earth, God will do it. The Greek word symphōnéō means "to sound together." God is the melody—we follow His lead and harmonize with each other.Unity is essential.Ephesians 4:3-4 urges us to stay united in the Spirit, bound in peace. You'll spend eternity with other Christians—better learn to get along now.Unity attracts the Holy Spirit.Psalm 133 says unity is like oil poured out—oil represents the Spirit. How can we experience revival if we can't even walk in relationship?Our unity is evangelism.John 13:35: "Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples." When we fight, the world stays in the stands instead of joining the team.Even when we disagree, we're still on the same team.Luke 9:49-50—Jesus says, "Anyone not against you is for you." Stop tackling your teammates. Pride builds walls; Jesus builds teams.1 John 4:20-21 reminds us: You can't love God and hate His kids.Division is the devil's weapon.The word "devil" means false accuser. Nothing makes hell happier than Christians fighting.If you separate over opinion, your offense may have become your idol. Jesus didn't come as a politician—He came as a Savior. He's returning for a pure, holy bride, not a divided harem.How to Walk in Unity:Don't correct what you can ignore. Romans 14:4—Let God judge His servants.Practice godly confrontation. Matthew 18:15-17—Go to the person, not the comments section.Value unity over uniformity. Galatians 3:26-28—You are all one in Christ. Wear your Jesus jersey.Conclusions:Geese fly 70% farther in formation. When the leader tires, another takes the front, but the formation holds.Where have you let division or distraction delay God's work?Prioritize purpose over preference.Could "illegal formation" be called on you?

Ensemble, elles forment un ensemble polymorphe, d'une diversité fascinante, profondément moderne et jubilatoire.Les entendre toutes réunies, en une après-midi, est une fête musicale, un moment de partage rare, un événement dans une vie.* Les Sequenze sont numérotées de I à XIV. Berio a composé des variantes pour certaines d'entre elles, qui seront également jouées à l'occasion du concert, à l'exception de la Sequenza IXc pour clarinette basse.ProgrammeSequenza I pour flûte traversière (1958) – par Federico AltareSequenza II pour harpe (1963) – par Kikuko DachySequenza III pour voix de femme (1966) – par Margaux LoireSequenza IV pour piano (1966) – par Pierre VenissacSequenza V pour trombone (1966) – par Romain GoupillonSequenza VI pour alto (1967) – par Noémie BialobrodaSequenza VII pour hautbois (1969) – par Philibert PerrinePremier entracteSequenza VIII pour violon (1975) – par Anna GöckelSequenza IX pour clarinette (1980) – par Yan MařatkaSequenza IXb pour saxophone alto (1981) – par Pierre FagetSequenza X pour trompette (1984) – par Thaïs JudeSequenza XI pour guitare (1988) – par Nestor Laurent-PerrotoDeuxième entracteSequenza XII pour basson (1993) – par Marceau LefèvreSequenza VIIb pour saxophone soprano (1995) – par Esther PamelardSequenza XIII pour accordéon (1996) – par Charlotte Le RouxSequenza XIV pour violoncelle (2002) – par Yi ZhouSequenza XIVb pour contrebasse (2004) – par Pietro Elia BarcellonaHébergé par Ausha.

Living meaningfully with the time we've got. Join Rabbi Brous and Lori Gottlieb in a sermon-dialogue on the intersection of Jewish and therapeutic wisdom on issues of deep concern for us today: how to stay in relationship with people whose ideas break your heart, confirmation bias and how minds are changed (can they be?), how to overcome psychic numbing and stay centered and empathic, even when we're hurting, how to hold hope and grow resiliency, and more. Gottlieb is a psychotherapist and New York Times bestselling author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone, which has sold over one million copies and has been translated into over 30 languages. In addition to her clinical practice, she writes The New York Times “Ask the Therapist” advice column and is co-host of the popular “Dear Therapists” podcast and the advice podcast Since You Asked. A contributing writer for The Atlantic, she also wrote The Atlantic's “Dear Therapist” advice column for six years. She is a sought-after expert appearing on Oprah, The Today Show, The Daily Show, Good Morning America, CBS Mornings, CNN, and NPR's “Fresh Air” and her TED Talk was one of the Top 10 Most Watched of the Year. She is also an IKAR member, and mother of the wonderful Zachary Gottlieb, IKAR teen extraordinaire.

Ep. 201 (Part 2 of 2) | In the thirteenth dialogue of the A. H. Almaas Wisdom Series, Hameed Ali delves into the subject of knowing, or basic knowledge, at the deepest level of awareness. Different from ordinary knowledge, basic knowledge is inherent and immediate, an important feature of reality. You can know Being by being Being, he says; know consciousness by being consciousness, know peace by being peace. Being and knowing are the same thing, he explains, two sides of a coin. Some of what Hameed shares here is unique to his Diamond Approach teaching, and not found in other spiritual teachings, such as what he imparts about the origin of mind and the distinction he makes between pure being and pure awareness.Hameed explains that we need our conceptual mind (to do our taxes, he laughs), but that reification—treating concepts as if they were real things—creates obstacles and alienates us from our true nature. The aim of all spiritual practice is to go beyond reification to immediate experience, he says. When Hameed describes the difference between pure presence and pure awareness, John wonders, how does Hameed remember the state of pure awareness when there's no knowing in that state? And what does it feel like to experience no ground of being? Hameed answers in his usual enlightening, gently humorous way, leaving listeners in a state of open-minded wonder. Vastly illuminating, this conversation goes directly to the heart of being and the heart of knowing at the very foundation of true nature. Recorded July 17, 2025.“Mind is not an obstacle. Not an enemy. The obstacle is the reified representation of mind. If we take the knowledge of that mind to be reality, that is the obstacle.”Topics & Time Stamps – Part 2How does Hameed remember the state of pure awareness when there's no knowing in that state?

Sarah Keohane Williamson, CEO of FCLT Global and coauthor of The CEO's Guide to the Investment Galaxy, offers a disciplined primer for executives operating at the intersection of corporate strategy and capital markets. Drawing from her background in investment banking, government, consulting, and asset management, she explains why “investors are not a single audience,” how their incentives shape corporate outcomes, and what leaders must do differently to secure durable capital and strategic flexibility.   Williamson pushes back on conventional wisdom about investor relations, replacing it with practical routines and priorities. She emphasizes a consulting-rooted discipline, “Start with the answer”, as a communications principle, and translates it into a concrete playbook for CEOs who cannot afford ambiguity when describing long-term bets. She underscores that “quarterly calls are important, but they're often dominated by the sell side,” and CEOs should deliberately allocate their limited time toward building trust with long-term owners and anchor shareholders.   Key takeaways include: Map the owners. “Who actually owns your company? Who makes the decisions about those shares?” Owner types—retail, index funds, active managers, hedge funds—differ in incentives and time horizons, and executives should treat that map as a strategic input. Build an investor strategy like a customer strategy. Decide which kinds of capital the company needs, why, and how to attract and retain those investors. Use a long-term roadmap. Make risky investments intelligible by explaining milestones that link short-term actions to enduring value, and “don't be afraid to update the roadmap when the assumptions change.” Translate investor signals into operational choices. Avoid reflexive short-term fixes, like cutting R&D to meet a quarter, without measuring the long-term cost. Treat disclosure and dialogue as governance tools. Clarity about ownership, voting, and incentives reduces misalignment and reputational risk. Reframe consultancy input for execution. “The hard part is not the analysis, the hard part is making it happen inside the organization.” This episode equips CEOs, CFOs, and board members with a practical framework for raising capital, defending strategic bets, and managing shareholder composition. It reframes investor engagement from a compliance exercise into a core discipline of strategy and governance.  

Have feedback or a topic you want to hear about, let us know by sending us a direct message!On this episode of The KarWell Chronicles, Emily and Sarah dive deep into the current state of the world, navigating tough conversations about politics, free speech, cancel culture, social media, and the importance of open, honest dialogue—especially during turbulent times. They grapple with the public's response to the recent assassination of Charlie Kirk, the internet's loud reactions, and how society is dealing with disagreement in an age of polarization. Along the way, they share personal anecdotes, the challenges of raising thoughtful children, and the struggle to hold space for differing beliefs within their circles. If you're craving raw, unfiltered conversation about humanity, empathy, navigating the echo chambers of today's media, and how to foster real community even when opinions clash—this episode is for you.Whether you're exhausted by social media outrage, worried about free speech, or just want to hear two friends wrestle with the gray areas of modern life, tune in for an honest, vulnerable look at what it means to (imperfectly) try to live with love and conviction in a divided world.

“People don't actually follow outrage; what they follow is what is unique and different.” Host Julie Rose talks with Manu Meel, co-founder and CEO of BridgeUSA, about how a new generation of college students is challenging the outrage economy, especially in the wake of the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk. Meel explains that while conflict and violence often dominate headlines, the real counterculture movement is people hungry for respectful dialogue and pluralism. He argues that listening itself has become a radical act, one that could reshape democracy by empowering the “silent majority” to push back against polarization.

In this episode of Grit Meets Growth, we dive into the power of open dialog—not the surface-level kind that stays safe, but the kind that creates space for honest reflection, real accountability, and genuine connection. We explore how conversation becomes a tool for grit and resilience, challenging us to admit when we're struggling, to call each other out when excuses creep in, and to carry one another's burdens when life gets heavy.From the everyday encounters that remind us there are still good people in the world, to the brotherhood being built inside Built for More, this conversation is about taking the mask off, leaning into feedback, and growing together through meaningful, face-to-face dialog.5 key insights from this episode: Open dialog fuels grit and resilience Real conversation is not just about sharing opinions—it's about having the courage to admit struggles, the humility to ask for help, and the strength to listen to feedback. That kind of dialog builds resilience and helps us grow through discomfort.Accountability requires speaking goals out loud Books and self-help resources can provide valuable insights, but without accountability, most lessons fade away. When goals are spoken out loud in a trusted group, others rally around them, creating support and pressure that makes growth stick.Connection and trust are built face-to-face In a world dominated by algorithms and social media echo chambers, true trust and connection come from human interaction. Sitting in a room together, removing the masks, and engaging in real dialog creates a kind of support technology can't replace.Feedback is fuel for growth Feedback isn't an attack—it's a seed. When we receive it with humility, nurture it, and put it into action, it becomes the catalyst for transformation. Defensive walls only block the growth that comes from honest reflection and outside perspective.Brotherhood creates lasting change Inside Built for More, men are experiencing transformation because they're no longer carrying their roles and struggles alone. Sharing openly with a trusted group shifts how they show up—in their families, their work, and their personal lives. Community accelerates change.One Truth:Growth doesn't happen in silence—it happens when you're willing to take off the mask, speak honestly, and let others hold you accountable.

Au Cameroun, le ministre d'État Bello Bouba Maïgari a fait sensation le 28 juin 2025, quand il a démissionné du gouvernement et annoncé sa candidature contre Paul Biya à la présidentielle du 12 octobre. En effet, son parti, l'Union nationale pour la démocratie et le progrès (UNDP), est un poids lourd dans le pays. Mais quelles sont ses chances de gagner si l'opposition reste divisée ? Aujourd'hui, le candidat Bello Bouba annonce qu'il « peut arriver à une entente » avec le candidat Tchiroma Bakary. En ligne de Yaoundé, il répond aux questions de Christophe Boisbouvier. RFI : Si vous êtes élu, quelles seront vos deux priorités ?   Bello Bouba Maïgari : Mes priorités, si je suis élu, ce sera d'abord pour la formation d'un gouvernement de large union. Parce qu'il faudra que nous nous attaquions aux problèmes essentiels de notre pays, à savoir la protection de l'unité nationale, son renforcement notamment dans les régions anglophones, mais également les problèmes de sécurité dans d'autres régions du Cameroun, notamment l'Extrême Nord.   Alors, vous parlez de la très grave crise anglophone au Nord-Ouest et au Sud-Ouest. Beaucoup de Camerounais, y compris des candidats, prônent le retour au fédéralisme. Qu'en pensez-vous ?   Aucun sujet ne sera tabou. D'abord, pour qu'il y ait une vraie inclusivité au Dialogue national inclusif que nous allons convoquer dans les six premiers mois de notre mandat, nous parlerons même aux leaders politiques des régions aujourd'hui troublées par cette crise anglophone, et nous envisageons de libérer ceux d'entre eux qui veulent travailler avec nous pour aboutir à un large consensus.   Votre fief, c'est le nord du pays, mais comme vous le savez, il ne suffit pas de gagner au nord. Est-ce que vous avez la stature nationale pour être élu président ?   Qui peut dénier à l'UNDP une implantation nationale ? Quel autre parti au Cameroun peut nous dénier cette bonne implantation que nous avons à travers l'ensemble des dix régions ?   Oui, mais tout de même, Monsieur le Premier Ministre, votre parti UNDP est pour l'instant très loin derrière le parti au pouvoir RDPC. Qu'est-ce que vous comptez faire d'ici au 12 octobre pour combler ce retard ?   D'abord, ce que vous appelez « très loin derrière le parti » au pouvoir, nous pensons que c'est parce que les conditions de transparence, de liberté et d'organisation des élections dans notre pays ne sont pas remplies. Nous travaillons pour cela et, d'ici à la fin du premier trimestre de 2026, vous verrez un renforcement de la représentation de l'UNDP dans toutes les assemblées de notre pays.   Mais pourquoi la fraude s'arrêterait-elle au Cameroun ?   Parce que d'abord, nous pensons, dans nos contacts avec les candidats et les anciens candidats, renforcer la collaboration entre nous pour assurer la vérité des urnes par une présence massive et digne des partis de l'opposition dans tous les bureaux de vote, dans toutes les commissions départementales où se passera le décompte des voix.   Tout récemment, il y a quelques jours, l'opposant Maurice Kamto, qui n'a pas le droit de se présenter et qui n'a pas encore donné de consigne de vote, vous a invité, Issa Tchiroma et vous-même qui êtes tous deux originaires du nord du pays, à vous entendre pour fusionner vos deux candidatures, qu'est-ce que vous en pensez ?   C'est pour cela que, après avoir écouté non seulement l'appel du professeur Kamto, mais aussi d'autres responsables de partis, nous avons relancé cette demande de rencontre entre nous pour que nous puissions nous entendre.   Une rencontre entre Tchiroma et vous ?   Une rencontre entre, oui, Monsieur Tchiroma, mais également avec d'autres candidats aussi. Les choses sont en train d'être explorées et nous n'avons pas perdu l'espoir qu'elles aboutiront à un consensus acceptable, non pas entre nous seuls, mais également à qui répondra à l'attente de beaucoup de Camerounais.   Et vous pourriez arriver à fusionner vos deux candidatures ?  Nous pourrons arriver, je l'espère, à trouver la solution que beaucoup attendent. C'est-à-dire une entente entre nous. C'est ma détermination pour laquelle je veux travailler.   Et que répondez-vous à ceux qui disent, comme le candidat Cabral Libii, qu'il faut renouveler la classe politique camerounaise et que les nonagénaires, comme Paul Biya, et les septuagénaires, comme Issa Tchiroma et vous-même, devraient peut-être laisser la place aux jeunes ?  C'est son opinion, mais la loi permet encore qu'un candidat de cet âge-là puisse se présenter. Je n'ai aucun commentaire à ce sujet.

In the wake of the Charlie Kirk tragedy, as I was reflecting on what unites us amidst intense political division, I thought who better to come on to discuss this than Aubrey Marcus - a visionary podcaster, writer, and poet. Aubrey and I delve deep into what shared values we can focus on that transcend politics, religious dogma, and cultural conventions. We explore the desensitization caused by social media, the importance of recognizing shared humanity, and the dangers of labeling individuals based on their political beliefs. The discussion emphasizes the need for open dialogue, the spectrum of values, and the potential for redemption and transformation in individuals. Ultimately, we advocate for finding common ground and uniting against anti-value ideologies while acknowledging the good intentions behind differing beliefs.The Illusion of Consensus is a reader-supported publication.

In this episode of Faith for Normal People, Pete and Jared talk with lawyer, lecturer, and author James Kimmel, Jr. about our primal desire for revenge against the people we feel have wronged us. James shares the science behind the belief that revenge is an addiction tied to gratification, and offers alternative strategies to break the revenge cycle and move towards a forgiveness-oriented approach to living.

In this episode of Beyond the Letter, Pastor Adam and the team take us on a journey through the rich history of the Church. From standing during the reading of Scripture to the rhythms of communion, the conversation invites us to reflect on how ancient traditions and practices can still shape our worship today.This isn't just a history lesson—it's an invitation to root ourselves deeper in the timeless truths of our faith. By exploring the unity and diversity that has characterized Christian worship across two millennia, we're encouraged to be curious, reflective, and intentional in how we live out our faith in the present. How can our current practices connect us more meaningfully to God and to the global family of believers across time?--Connect with:Pastor Adam Mesa https://www.instagram.com/amesa/Pastor Sammy https://www.instagram.com/samuelmrod/--Don't forget to stay connected with us:Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4OvpFp9OB9_DgVdVVbXhFgInstagram https://www.instagram.com/beyond.theletter/Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/discover/beyond-the-letter--Get Aaron Levy's book, JOHN: 21 Daily Drips of Dialogue: https://a.co/d/7lGB90i--Have a question?

On May 29, 2025, MoCP presented a series of conversations that explored topics of authorship, representation, and the dissemination of information as they relate to the past, present, and future of photography. This special edition of Focal Point Extras captures the conversation between scholar and educator Laura Wexler (Yale University) and artist, art historian, and educator Shawn Michelle Smith (School of the Art Institute of Chicago) on the topic of “The Living Archive.” The two discuss artists who work with archives to expand fixed notions of history, and people who call for a reassessment of ownership and control over photographed people within archives. This symposium was in conjunction with the exhibition, Collaboration: A Potential History of Photography in Dialogue with the MoCP Collection curated by Wendy Ewald, Susan Meiselas, Laura wexler, and MoCP Curator of Academic Programs and Collections, Kristin Taylor.

Join us for an enlightening discussion with Tia Slightham, a passionate parenting coach and mother of two, as she shares her journey from being a kindergarten teacher to becoming a certified positive discipline expert. Tia's unique approach emphasizes that parenting is a learned skill, and she has dedicated her career to helping parents foster better relationships with their children. We explore common challenges faced by parents, such as the reliance on ineffective tactics like yelling and bribery, and highlight the importance of acquiring proper parenting skills to create a harmonious family environment. Tia's transformative Parenting with Purpose Method has guided thousands of parents globally, providing them with the tools to enjoy their parenting journey. Listen in as we explore the impact of different parenting styles on children's behavior and motivation. Tia discusses the challenges parents encounter when employing authoritarian or permissive styles, which often lead to anxiety and boundary-pushing in children. We also tackle school-related responsibilities, focusing on fostering self-motivation in children as they transition to higher grades. Tia emphasizes the importance of not making homework the parent's problem and instead setting structured systems and boundaries to encourage a positive learning environment, ultimately strengthening the parent-child connection.
