Healthy forests help combat climate change, provide humans with drinking water and even improve mental and physical health. But it's hard to imagine an entire forest in the middle of a big city. That's where micro-forests come into play — public forests on a smaller scale, filled with native plants. They exist around the world, and producer Rachel Carlson went to visit the largest micro-forest in California. She joins host Emily Kwong to chat about what she saw. Interested in more of the science behind urban nature?

The Gospel in Tombstone Sign up for the Father Matters Zoom Group: https://www.zoweh.org/events#circles  In this episode of the Exploring More podcast, Michael Thompson and SJ Jennings kick off their new "Faves" series by diving into one of their all-time favorite films: Tombstone. Through the lens of the friendship between Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday, they unpack themes of sacrifice, loyalty, and brotherhood—exploring how one man laid down his life so another could live his. Drawing from Joseph Campbell's "Hero's Journey," they reflect on the arcs of transformation, the call to adventure, and the role of mentors, weaving these archetypes into real-life spiritual parallels. As they recount powerful moments from Tombstone, the conversation touches on the universal longing for a normal life, the inevitable confrontation with evil, and the beauty of redemptive friendship. Whether it's Wyatt's search for peace or Doc's act of selfless love, the hosts invite listeners to consider the ways story helps us see our own battles, questions, and courage more clearly. It's not just a movie episode—it's a deep reflection on the power of story to mirror truth, stir the soul, and invite us into the greater story God is telling.

Tom Junod is famous for writing essays that have defined both people and events. He wrote a piece called "The Falling Man" for Esquire, which is the canonical piece about 9/11. Later on, he wrote the iconic "Can You Say...Hero?" about Fred Rogers, also for Esquire. What's unique about this conversation is that it's both practical and deep, but it all comes to a head at the end. In this climax, we get to talk about his bookshelf, and it fast becomes one of my favorite things that's ever happened on How I Write. Enjoy! About the host Hey!

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA Auto Care and NAPA TRACS Watch Full Video Episode Dr. J.J. Peterson, PhD in communications, explains how business owners can elevate their leadership by stepping into the role of the Guide instead of operating as the hero, villain, or victim. Using proven storytelling frameworks, Peterson outlines four core characters, Victim, Villain, Hero, and Guide, and why self-awareness of these roles is critical to effective leadership. Victims lack agency and believe outcomes are beyond their control. Villains respond to pain by inflicting it on others, gaining short-term power but long-term resentment. Heroes work to redeem pain but are often overwhelmed and unstable—especially when leaders try to play that role in business. The most powerful role is the Guide: a steady, confident mentor who combines empathy and authority to help others win. Peterson shows that when leaders stop trying to be the hero and instead guide customers and team members, who are the true heroes of the story, culture improves, trust deepens, recruitment becomes easier, and retention increases. The result is the Badass Softie balance: driven leadership grounded in genuine care for people. Dr J.J.

For over four decades, Ravi Sawhney has shaped the world through human-centered innovation—from the first touchscreen experiences at Xerox PARC to iconic products and services that have improved millions of lives. In this episode of The Story Engine Podcast, Ravi shares the timeless principles behind his psychoesthetic methodology: a design philosophy rooted in emotion, memory, and how an experience makes us feel about ourselves. We explore why modern technology often feels synthetic, how great design creates meaning rather than aesthetics, and why the most successful products, services, and even political messages connect to our deepest human needs. Ravi reveals the emotional tests every person unconsciously runs—Is it like me? Does it like me? Can it make me more?—and demonstrates how companies can use these insights to create solutions that resonate, inspire, and elevate. This is an insightful journey through innovation, anthropology, storytelling, and the universal longing for affirmation. On This Episode 00:25 — Ravi's Origin Story: From Xerox PARC to Founding RKS Design Ravi recounts his early work on the first touchscreen graphical interfaces and the leap from corporate life to entrepreneurship. 01:50 — The Core Principle: Human-Centered Innovation "It's not how you feel about the design—it's how the design makes you feel about yourself." 02:36 — The Problem with AI-Driven, Algorithm-Centered Design Why modern technology often feels synthetic and emotionally flat. 04:57 — The Human Emotional Litmus Test "Is it like me? Does it like me? Can it make me more?" Ravi explains the universal psychological process humans use to evaluate meaning. 06:20 — Maya Angelou Meets Design Why emotion—not logic—is the heart of unforgettable experiences. 07:12 — Why Organizations Seek Human-Centered Innovation The two sides of motivation: fear avoidance and aspiration. 10:14 — How the Hero's Journey Is Actually a Design Process Ravi breaks down attract → engage → adopt → affirm. 12:15 — What Makes Psychoesthetics Unique Discovering deeper meaning and triggering positive memories through design. 17:01 — The Teddy Ruxpin Story: Bringing a Toy to Life How Ravi turned an ugly, mechanical bear into a cultural phenomenon. 19:19 — Designing Guitars Played by the Rolling Stones How sustainable materials and emotional resonance changed music hardware forever. 24:27 — Human-Centered Design for Social Impact How Ravi redesigned access to home-buying programs for first-time buyers. 26:14 — Where to Learn More Ravi shares resources, books, the methodology, and where to find more of his work.

The night of the final public showing a fellow guest speaker was SaVana the older sister of Devon and his two brothers who were in the film. During the episode, SaVana shares about her experiences growing up in extreme poverty, homelessness, mental illness and addiction. She shares about her mental awakening at an early age the introduction to Carl Jung and Joseph Campbell's Hero's Journey and how that have served as templates to navigate in life today as woman, wife, mom and sister.

Is corruption the exception… or the rule?“People assume you fall for a con because you're naïve.In reality, you fall because the con aligns with what you already know to be true.”In this King Hero interview, I'm joined by Achille Currado, whose nearly 20 years in policing gave him a front-row seat to realities most people never see—and few are willing to talk about.Long before corruption became a public talking point, Achille had already witnessed it firsthand.During his career, he was exposed to:Systemic corruptionCultural corruption—where unethical behavior becomes normalizedBlatant abuse of powerHe personally witnessed:Careers destroyed for personal and political reasonsReputations manipulated behind the scenesCriminal acts quietly covered up in the name of “the system”Over time, a clear pattern emerged:Advancement often required compromising one's moralsThose who refused to comply became problemsA deeply entrenched “us vs. them” mentality took holdWithin this culture:Officers came to see themselves as above civiliansAccountability became optionalLoyalty to the system outweighed loyalty to truth“That context matters—because cons don't start with lies. They start with truths.”In this conversation, we explore how corruption sustains itself not through deception alone, but through alignment with partial truths, cultural conditioning, and unspoken agreements. We'll look at how systems drift, how good people get caught inside them, and what it takes to see clearly once you're already in.This is a grounded, sobering, and deeply human conversation about power, perception, and the cost of integrity.Bio:Born and raised in London, Ontario, I began my career as a youth worker in a maximum-security facility for young offenders, where I worked for seven years. Driven by a desire to serve the community, I joined the London Police Service in 1998. Over nearly two decades, I worked as a patrol officer, in recruiting and training, within the detective office as a crime analyst and in Intelligence, and as a report auditor. These experiences offered a unique perspective on how policing operates from the inside.Join us live.

Hero collapses and the guests are cleared out of the chapel. Leonato rages at his daughter until the Deacon intervenes, vouching for Hero's honor. She makes a plan to keep Hero in hiding and spread word that she is dead in order to stir guilt and remorse in the conspirators that framed her. Leonato agrees and departs with the Deacon and Hero, leaving Benedick and Beatrice alone in the sanctuary. As Beatrice mourns her cousin's misfortune, Benedick swears his love to her and she swears hers to him. But when she asks Benedick to prove his love by killing Claudio, he refuses.

In this episode of Hoopsology, we sit down with Patty Mills: Beyond Basketball author Boti Nagy for one of the most powerful and eye-opening conversations we've ever had on the show. We explore Patty Mills' remarkable journey—from his Indigenous Australian roots and the legacy of the Stolen Generation to becoming an NBA champion with the San Antonio Spurs and an Olympic hero for Australia. Boti Nagy explains the deep cultural significance behind Patty's story, including:

As 2026 begins, Andrew and Jay take a look at one of the most dangerous traps for founders and small shop owners: becoming the hero who always steps in to save the day.Andrew introduces a personal document he titled “Andrew Is Fired,” a deliberate decision to remove himself from roles that feel productive but quietly limit growth. The conversation explores why constantly “going above and beyond” can actually be a form of selfishness, how undocumented processes turn leaders into bottlenecks, why clarity around ownership matters more than raw effort, and more.

THE DEATH OF A RANGER AND THE CREATION OF A HERO Colleague Professor Robert G. Parkinson. Michael Cresap marched his riflemen from the frontier to Boston in 1775, where the press hailed them as "secret weapons" against the British. However, these troops proved undisciplined, and Washington privately wished they had not come. Suffering likely from malaria, Cresap fell ill and died in a New York City boarding house in October 1775. Despite being a stranger, New York patriots gave Cresap a massive, lavish funeral at Trinity Church to rally support for the cause. The revolution transformed Cresap from a frontier instigator into a celebrated American patriot. NUMBER 5

PREVIEW FOR LATER TONIGHT: A PRIVATE HERO GOES PUBLIC TO OPPOSE INTERVENTION Colleague H.W. Brands. The discussion focuses on Charles Lindbergh's decision to leverage his fame for radio airtime upon returning to the United States in 1939. Despite his deep distrust of politics, Lindbergh felt compelled to speak out to prevent America from repeating the mistakes of World War I.

AGAMEMNON'S FAILURE AND DIVINE POLITICS Colleague Professor Emily Wilson. This segment details the plot's catalyst: Agamemnon seizing Briseis from Achilles, causing the hero to withdraw from battle. Wilson explains the divine politics, including Hera trading three Greek cities to Zeus to ensure Troy's destruction. They analyze Agamemnon's flawed leadership; while he blames Zeus for his bad decisions, the poem portrays the immense difficulty of holding a disparate army together, leading to disastrous choices that necessitate Achilles' eventual return.
