Most of us are busier, more “optimized,” and more connected than ever - yet somehow feel less alive. Why? And what would it look like to reclaim a deeper, wilder sense of humanness in a world obsessed with control?This week, Oliver Burkeman, bestselling author of Four Thousand Weeks and Meditations for Mere Mortals, returns to explore the paradox at the heart of modern life: the more we chase mastery, certainty, and perfect systems, the more we squeeze out the very aliveness we're craving. From the illusion of control to the quiet courage of letting go, we dig into how to live fully now, not “one day when everything's sorted.”Together we explore:Aliveness vs. optimization: why feeling in control can be the enemy of feeling alive — and how to make room for vitality again.“Letting go” without giving up: Elizabeth Gilbert's reframe you're not losing control; you never had it, only anxiety.Productive discomfort tolerance: sitting with the first five messy minutes, parenting, deep work, reading, and why difficulty isn't a personal failing.Resilience as release: from kintsugi to self-trust, why strength often arrives after the break, and why gripping harder rarely works.Plans that don't kill the work: using structure as a North Star, not a taskmaster, so projects keep their spark.Spontaneity on schedule? The weird trap of “time-boxing serendipity,” and the liberating truth that every moment is a choice.Comparison culture: inside vs. outside, and why someone else's serene grid may mask chaos you can't see.AI, therapy, and the human need to be held in mind: where tools help, and where only a person will do.This is a conversation about refusing to postpone life until after the emails, the crises, or the algorithm say you're done, and choosing to show up, human and imperfect, right now.Love,Sarah Ann

In this episode, we lean into the mystical side of Elizabeth Gilbert's Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear. From her belief that ideas have a life of their own, to the almost magical way inspiration seems to show up, we explore the “woo-woo” aspects that make this book both enchanting and controversial. We'll share our thoughts on the spiritual and mysterious side of creativity—like whether ideas really “choose” us, how synchronicities play a role in the creative process, and why leaning into wonder can transform how we work and live. If you've ever felt like creativity has a mind of its own—or questioned the mystical side of inspiration—this conversation is for you. Come with an open mind, a little curiosity, and maybe a touch of magic. BUY Big Magic Here Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Elizabeth Gilbert rocketed to fame for her best-selling romp “Eat, Pray, Love.” Her  latest memoir has a very different tone. “All the Way to the River: Love, Loss, and Liberation” details her journey to heal from sex and love addiction. It is also about the love of her life, Rayya Elias, a Syrian-born recovering addict and musician. Elizabeth Gilbert joins us for a live broadcast in front of an audience at the Literary Arts bookstore.

Charles shares a personal reflection on Elizabeth Gilbert's new memoir All the Way to the River—a raw, beautifully told story about love, addiction, and loss. He explores what makes Gilbert's writing different from typical books on recovery and co-dependence, how her honesty resonates with his own journey, and why the audiobook version delivers an especially powerful experience.Support the show

What if the secret to unlocking creativity, confidence, and collaboration at work wasn't more structure—but more play? Today's guest is living proof that playful rebellion can lead to powerful results. With over a decade of experience in corporate leadership and nearly as many years on the improv stage, this dynamic facilitator and coach has helped thousands of professionals ditch burnout and rediscover joy, connection, and purpose in their work. His book, “Playful Rebellion: Maximize Workplace Success Through The Power of Play,” challenges the idea that productivity and play are at odds. Instead, it offers a bold invitation to infuse our workdays with curiosity, experimentation, and fun without sacrificing results. Drawing from both personal burnout and professional reinvention, he shows how applied improv, strategic play, and intentional facilitation can transform teams and leadership from the inside out. Named one of the Top 100 HR Influencers by Engagedly, and a trusted guide for companies that want to energize their culture, today's guest brings depth, warmth, and a touch of magic (literally!) to everything he does. Please join me in welcoming Gary Ware.  In this episode, we discuss the following:

This week we're going all over the place, so buckle up for the ride. Starting off with a dead body being found in a TikTok star's Tesla trunk (but he's been on tour so who put it there???), UFOs are all over the damn place, just released terrifying shirtless selfies of Bryan Kohberger, and Elizabeth Gilbert admitting to *almost* attempting to kill her partner but no one seems to care?? WHAT IS HAPPENING

“I don't think anybody manages to go through their experience incarnated in human form and not have chapters of your life that are like, what literally just happened?” says Elizabeth Gilbert. “How did I end up here and who am I? And where did the ground go beneath my feet?” Today, Gilbert shares the story behind her new memoir, All the Way to the River: Love, Loss, and Liberation. She rightly describes it as the most excavating and the most searching thing she’s ever written. The book, and this conversation, are full of lessons for all of us about what we might search for, and find, in ourselves, in our relationships, and in love.

Description: As a luminary in contemporary literature, Elizabeth Gilbert's writing has shaped the zeitgeist through adventure, spiritual exploration, creativity, and what it means to live a life of integrity. Her work consistently resonates with a global audience, prompting introspection and inspiring personal journeys of self-discovery. In this episode, Elizabeth Gilbert delves into the intricate narratives woven within her latest book, All the Way to the River: Love, Loss, and Liberation.  Liz traces the evolving nature of her bond with Rayya Elias, illustrating how the relationship transitioned from a cherished best friend to a trusted neighbor, then blossomed into a profound creative muse, and ultimately became a romantic partner—her "person."  This deeply significant relationship unfolded against the harrowing backdrop of Rayya's terminal pancreatic cancer diagnosis and her courageous, yet often arduous, battle with addiction.  In a conversation full of heart and unabashed vulnerability, Liz reflects on her own struggles with people-pleasing, addiction, and finding emotional and spiritual sobriety, discussing what it looks like to take accountability for one's own well-being to write a life story that ends with dignity. Thought-provoking Quotes: “If you're very lucky, you might just meet one person in your life who you can go all the way to the river with.” – Elizabeth Gilbert “There's not a jury in the world who wouldn't have agreed that I had every right to see myself as a victim in that story but I still didn't see my role in the insanity. It took me years of grieving and anger and processing to see it.” – Elizabeth Gilbert “There is no such thing as a relationship between an incredibly healthy person and an incredibly dysfunctional person. There's an incredibly dysfunctional person and a person who is very far from themselves engaging in that relationship with that incredibly dysfunctional person.” – Elizabeth Gilbert “I've used people as though they are drugs, to shore up my incredibly gaping insecurity wound. So I'm going to either use someone as a sedative, somebody who makes me feel really safe, or I'm going to go find somebody to use as a speed ball of excitement and danger, somebody who's very bad for me. I would just try to find the person who could make my levels feel right.” – Elizabeth Gilbert “Like many humans, I am extremely faulty at knowing what's going to make me happy.. I anticipate that something will make me happy and it almost kills me.” – Elizabeth Gilbert Emotional sobriety, for me, is taking complete accountability for my own nervous system and not ever accusing anybody of disrupting it. A simple thing that I've learned to say is not ‘You need to stop behaving the way that you're behaving', but ‘I love you and I need to go.'” – Elizabeth Gilbert To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

When someone you love is in pain—whether they’re sick, addicted, or falling apart—you show up. Again and again and again. You make the calls. You hold the line. You carry what you can. But what happens when love, loyalty, and devotion blur into something harder to name? When care turns into codependency, and compassion starts to erase your sense of self? Kate sits down with best-selling author Elizabeth Gilbert (Eat, Pray, Love; Big Magic) to talk about the toll and the tenderness of caregiving. Liz’s new memoir, All the Way to the River, chronicles her years caring for someone she loved deeply through addiction and illness—and what it meant to finally let go. Together, they explore: What it means to walk someone you love to the edge of life How codependence disguises itself as devotion The permission we need to be more than someone’s lifeline This conversation is for anyone who has ever loved to the point of exhaustion. Who wonders if love is meant to cost this much. Who needs a blessing for the moment when helping means losing yourself.

What happens when love becomes addiction and life completely breaks you open? In this raw conversation, Elizabeth Gilbert shares her journey through grief, codependency, and recovery - revealing how our most devastating experiences can become our greatest teachers. You'll learn the difference between healing and fixing, why familiar pain often feels safer than growth, and what it truly takes to rebuild yourself from the ground up.  @elizabeth_gilbert_writer is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Eat, Pray, Love and Big Magic, with over 25 million books old worldwide.

The Wailin' Jennys have been singing together for more than two decades - recording albums, touring the world, and filling venues large and small. After all these years, the trio—Ruth Moody, Heather Masse, and Nicky Mehta—have reached both a plateau and an inflection point. What's it like for a musical group that's been together for that long; for singers who've found such perfect vocal harmony for one another? How do they each think of songwriting, and of creative work in general?
