January is prime seed-dreaming and seed-catalogue season. With that in mind, we're revisiting a favorite conversation all about generosity, mutual care, good seeds, and seed people. Who doesn't need more of all those as we continue to lay the foundation for this new year? Ken Greene – who goes by K - is a seed person. He is the co-founder of the Hudson Valley Seed Library, which in 2004 became the first public library-based seed lending library in the US; in 2008, he went on to co-found with his partner Doug Muller, Hudson Valley Seed Company, a seed and art company focused on heirloom and open-pollinated vegetable, flower and herb seed. Even more interested in seed literacy, sovereignty, and cultural seed rematriation, in 2016, K and Shanyn Siegel, a seed work colleague, founded the now-dormant non-profit, Seedshed, devoted to sharing and supporting the cultural, agricultural, and ecological diversity of seed. K joins Cultivating Place this week to delve into the long view and deep relationships born of the generosity of seed – and seed people - in our garden lives. Cultivating Place now has a donate button! We thank you for listening over the years, and we hope you'll continue to support Cultivating Place. We can't thank you enough for making it possible for this young program to grow and engage in even more conversations like these. The show is available as a podcast on SoundCloud and iTunes.

In this episode of The Motivatarian Exchange, Dionne Woods sits down with Dallas-based abstract artist and photographer Andie Hamilton, the creative force behind Andie in Color. As a young girl, Andie dreamed of becoming a photographer and fashion designer. Today, she is fully embracing every layer of her creative life—using bold color, expressive abstraction, and intuitive storytelling to shift spaces, spark emotion, and encourage women to be seen. In this honest and motivating conversation, Dionne and Andie talk about the journey from imagining a creative life to actively living one. Andie shares how motivation has evolved for her over time, how trusting creativity changed her path, and what it looks like to integrate every skill, interest, and season into becoming the artist she is today. Together, they explore: The transition from dreaming to doing in a creative life How color can change not just a space, but a mindset Staying motivated through uncertainty, pivots, and growth Letting go of old expectations to embrace creative identity Why becoming an artist is often about permission, not perfection Andie's story is a reminder that motivation isn't always loud or linear—it's often found by showing up, trusting intuition, and allowing yourself to grow into the work over time. This episode is especially resonant for creative women who once held big dreams and are now learning how to honor them fully. Whether you're an artist, photographer, creative entrepreneur, or someone rediscovering your creative voice, this conversation offers encouragement, perspective, and a gentle push toward becoming who you've always imagined.
In this day and age when there are a lot of things that want to stifle our dreams and stifle our energy and our creativity about what it is that we can build or do or how we can exist in the world, we need support with dreaming. In this episode, Monique shares what came up during a recent dream session she led with her clients, and why making space for self-reflection and imaginative play is such a powerful (and necessary) practice. You'll hear her unpack our relationship with dreaming and the ongoing work of becoming, not the version of yourself that gets approval, but the version that feels true. She also offers a gentle but clear shift: instead of chasing external validation, start paying attention to what you actually desire, because those internal cues are often the most honest fuel for your ambition.If your dreams have been feeling distant, smaller, or harder to access lately, this conversation will help you reconnect. Tune in, explore what's calling you forward, and take one small step toward reclaiming your dreams.GEMS DROPPED“Dreaming can feel really tough, especially for women who are positioned to be the caretakers of this world in our communities, in our families, in our offices, everywhere we go. And so we get wrapped up in what everybody else needs.”“To have a relationship to the dream, which is like more of a destination positioning, as opposed to having a relationship to dreaming, which is the act of creating, engaging with the dream. I think the line of delineation there is one points to where am I supposed to go or and how am I supposed to go there. The other one points to who am I supposed to be and so that's the question I'll pose to you, which is who it is that you're trying to be?”“The dream is really just a byproduct or a symptom of you being who you are meant to be expressed as here and now, right? Are you behaving as her? Are you existing as her? Are you at the energetic frequency? It's just what happens.”“Whether or not we know it, y', all, we have mantras running through our heads every day. Directing our beliefs, directing our actions, all of our choices. You're already running off of a mantra, and it is your job to, as often as you can, examine what is the mantra that I'm living by right now. What is the track that is running through my mind that is directing my thoughts, my emotions, my behaviors, what's in there and is it serving me? Because sometimes it is, and sometimes it isn't. Many times, especially in a season where you are triggered by fear and overwhelm, those kinds of things, they don't come from nowhere, and they don't have an impact. That's just external. It's like your mind is running on something. And so we've got to get a hold of our thoughts, and we have to replace our thoughts.”“Your dream is about who you wish to be. How you wish to be expressed in the world. It's not about the destination or the accomplishments. It's about how you want to feel about yourself. The kind of woman who is. The kind of woman who does. The kind of woman who exists. Are you willing to put her at risk to make other people feel better?”STAY IN TOUCHCome and follow me on Instagram @moniquershields or YouTube and I would love your feedback so send an email to ambition@moniquershields.com.

In this episode, Moni and Andrea discuss the often-overlooked leadership skills that military spouses possess and how they can leverage these skills in their businesses. They explore the unique challenges faced by military spouses, including adaptability, crisis management, and the importance of community support. Andrea emphasizes the need for self-awareness, recognizing one's leadership abilities, and the importance of setting boundaries to avoid burnout. The conversation also touches on practical steps for military spouses to embrace their leadership roles and maintain momentum during transitions such as PCS moves. Takeaways Leadership skills are often built without conscious awareness. Military spouses possess unique leadership superpowers such as adaptability and resilience. Community support is crucial for overcoming feelings of isolation in leadership roles. Recognizing and celebrating your leadership contributions is essential for self-empowerment. Making decisions alone can be challenging; seek accountability and support. Imposter syndrome is common; focus on authenticity and self-awareness to combat Setting boundaries is vital for maintaining personal well-being and business success.

A Bears-Packers playoff comeback is already chaos, then Chicago gets a second shockwave mid-game: news leaks that the Cubs are signing Alex Bregman. Evan and Tiki debate how any fan is supposed to process a blockbuster baseball move during the biggest football moment in years, plus why good news can wait but bad news hijacks your brain instantly. Then the show pivots back to the NFL with a caller hammering the league's new addiction: going for it on fourth down. The guys break down the Jaguars' pivotal decision to pass up points against Buffalo, why it felt even worse after a gifted short field, and how one empty possession can swing a playoff game. From there it turns into full Jets fan therapy. Calls flood in with trade-up fantasies for Fernando Mendoza, reality checks on what it would actually cost, and the clip that sent Jets hopes into a spiral when Mendoza names Tom Brady as his dream dinner guest. Plus: a debate on Ben Johnson's “talking spicy” persona, whether he's hard to root for, and why Sean McVay is the easy choice when likability becomes part of the playoff rooting chart.
Sangeet Paul Choudhary is the bestselling co-author of Platform Revolution, founder of Platformation Labs, senior fellow at UC Berkeley, and author of Reshuffle, exploring how AI fundamentally reorganizes value creation architecture.Episode Sponsor: Fiscal AI is a modern data terminal that gives investors instant access to twenty years of financials, earnings transcripts, and extensive segment and KPI data—use my link for a two-week free trial plus 15% off: https://fiscal.ai/talkingbillions/3:00 - Sangeet describes growing up in an industrial town where everyone's father worked at the steel plant, creating a homogeneous, "straight-jacketed" environment. Digital technologies opened new career possibilities beyond this rigid path.5:45 - The Intelligence Distraction: Sangeet challenges the dominant narrative of AI benchmarked by intelligence metrics. "AI is not an alternative to human thought. It could be an alternative to human-performed knowledge work, but it's not an alternative to human thought."8:30 - The GPS metaphor: AI's real impact comes from reorganizing systems, not raw intelligence. Like GPS restructures traffic flow by coordinating unconnected drivers, AI reorganizes economic activity by creating shared representations of complex spaces.15:00 - Travel industry transformation: Dreaming on Instagram, planning on Google Flights, booking through fragmented systems. AI could create unified representations connecting desire to action seamlessly.28:00 - Piracy as market research: "Piracy is a form of market research showing unmet demand." When illegal activity fills gaps, it reveals where legitimate systems fail to serve users.35:00 - Platform economics: Network effects create winner-take-all dynamics. Once critical mass is achieved, platforms become nearly impossible to displace.42:00 - Solution vs. execution: Professional services charging for billing hours face commoditization. The future belongs to those charging for outcomes and results, not execution time.48:00 - Orica example: Mining explosives company stopped selling products, started selling blast outcomes. Shifted from commodity provider to results-aligned partner, capturing more value and developing superior expertise.52:00 - Don't need AI strategy, need strategy for AI world: "What is our strategy given the conditions that AI creates?" AI dissolves industry boundaries by making previously siloed knowledge accessible across sectors.54:30 - Value migration: Ask where value sat before, where it moves with AI, then position to capture that shifted value.Podcast Program – Disclosure StatementBlue Infinitas Capital, LLC is a registered investment adviser and the opinions expressed by the Firm's employees and podcast guests on this show are their own and do not reflect the opinions of Blue Infinitas Capital, LLC.

Dreaming with the Gods: Sleep, Visions, and the Sacred Night. Tonight, we journey into the sacred realm of sleep and dreams— that mysterious threshold where the conscious mind rests and the soul begins to speak. Across cultures and centuries, dreams have been understood not as random images, but as divine messages, soul journeys, and visions sent by gods and goddesses who dwell in the night. In this episode, we will explore the sacred meaning of dreams, the deities who govern them, and how sleep itself is a spiritual initiation—one we enter every single night. Also includes the Sacred Source Guide to Dream Interpretation. And a guided sleep meditation suitable for entering the sacred state of sleep.

In this episode of Polly Campbell Simply Said, Polly welcomes Bonnie Buckner, author of The Secret Mind and founder of the International Institute for Dreaming and Imagery. Together, they explore how dreams can guide personal growth, creativity, and self-understanding. Bonnie explains that dreams are the language of the inner self—images that communicate directly with the subconscious—and offers practical ways to work with them through journaling and reflection. They discuss how the same brain networks involved in creativity and dreaming help us generate ideas and insights, even when we're not consciously focused. Bonnie also shares how nightmares can act as “friendly messengers,” revealing emotional truths that support transformation and healing. This conversation invites listeners to explore their own dreams as tools for clarity, creativity, and personal awakening.

Are events in life symbolic, or are they simply expressive moments within a vast, intelligent universe? We humans love to make meaning of things, especially unusual events or mysterious dreams. Are we justified in doing so, or are we possibly distracting ourselves from what's really going on around us. Once again, Thom offers a profound reframing of symbolism, dreaming, and the role of unbounded awareness in everyday life.You can also watch this episode in two parts on YouTube, here https://youtu.be/ExUj9fmAeVU and here https://youtu.be/gkEwft6ST-0.

We are longing for something better than this, greater than this, higher than this. Dreaming for a life free of addiction and pain. The opportunity is there, its what we do in this moment on earth that will decide our eternity.
Dreaming can feel impossible when you're still carrying the weight of what didn't happen, what hurt, or what never got resolved. In this episode, Meghan and Maria explore why dreaming often feels blocked—not because you're doing it wrong, but because your heart and body are still holding last year.They walk through why looking back with honesty and compassion is often the missing step before moving forward, how unforgiveness and disappointment live in the body, and why healing creates the space needed for hope, curiosity, and desire to return.This conversation gently invites you to release what's been weighing you down, make room for God to meet you in the ache, and begin dreaming again—from a place of freedom rather than pressure.
This week's featured story comes from the Martin & Sylvia: More Adventures! collection. It's called "Dreaming the Garden."

But the quiet work is much more imaginative than they expect - they are going to help the garden dream. If you enjoyed that story, there are hundreds and hundreds more where that came from.

Jacob #2 - In this passage, Jacob must leave his home in the promised land after tricking his brother, Esau, into selling him his birthright and stealing Esau's blessing from Isaac for himself. Now, Jacob is facing poverty and danger instead of the power and prosperity that he was promised. In this moment where everything is going wrong for him, Jacob meets with God. He sees that there is a connection between Heaven and earth and that through His angels, God provides for and protects his people. This is still true today. God sees you and cares about you, even when you are at your lowest point. And God still invites us to meet with Him today - through Jesus.

Luke's ENGLISH Podcast - Learn British English with Luke Thompson
[966] Here is a super-long seasonal rambling episode, which you can listen to while wrapping presents, finishing some last-minute gift shopping, or (if you don't celebrate Christmas) just doing whatever you normally do in December. This is a long one, but the more you listen, the more it will help your English!
We know you've been thinking about it. Dreaming about it. Talking to your spouse, friends, and family about it. Take our advice: don't do it…yet. Obviously, we're talking about the one thing every real estate investor is after: quitting your job. It's the goal of every rental property owner to have enough real estate cash flow to pay for your life, tell your boss it's over, and walk out the door, fading away into the sunset. But quitting your job for rentals could add years to your financial freedom timeline, limit your ability to scale your real estate portfolio, and force you back into the job market when things get tough. Today, we brought on someone who's proof that keeping your job makes you richer (quicker) in real estate. Paul Novak has worked full-time for 20 years. At record speed, he acquired eight rentals in just five years. And guess what? In five more years, he could be financially independent and retire early, IF he keeps his job and invests. The best part? Paul has unlocked secret, low-interest loans that W-2 workers have easy access to but rarely know about, helping him supercharge his rental portfolio. If you really want to quit, do it. But if you actually want to get wealthy with real estate, listen to this episode. In This Episode We Cover How Paul scaled to eight rental units while working a full-time schedule The secret loan to fund your real estate deals that W-2 workers have easy access to Why you'll retire much sooner if you keep your W-2 job vs. quitting Should you work in the real estate industry if you don't like your job? The benefits of going full-time into real estate (only quit if these are worth it) And So Much More!
