Podcasts about how to live a good life

Is it OK to Fly in a Climate Crisis? In episode 2 of our How To Live A Good Life in a Climate Crisis series, the hosts grapple with one of most divisive issues for those concerned with climate change - is it ok to fly, when flying is responsible for the bulk of our personal carbon footprints, and when 80% of the world never sets foot on a plane? Tom, Paul and Christiana dive into this thorny issue from three different perspectives. Putting forward the case for and against flying, the hosts touch on the miracle of flying, the potential of sustainable aviation fuels and offsets, and the joys of train travel! They hope that these tricky conversations will be a springboard for further and deeper conversations for listeners.   NOTES AND RESOURCES   How much does aviation contribute to climate change? How will this change in the future? Why do aircraft leave contrails in the sky?

In episode 1 of our How To Live A Good Life in a Climate Crisis series, the Outrage + Optimism hosts introduce you to their new mini series and discuss how they define a good life. For the next few weeks, Tom, Paul and Christiana will explore questions that you, the listeners, have asked us to address, around what it means to live a good life at this pivotal moment, facing uncertainty and judgments. They'll talk about whether we should fly, what we eat, how to enjoy a meaningful career and whether or not we should have children. This free ranging discussion attempts to shine a light on the interplay between the largest issue facing humanity - the climate crisis - and the difference each of us can make. Although this series concerns itself with individual action, part of our role is to call on governments and other institutions to precipitate systemic change. Please don't expect any right or wrong answers! Tom, Paul and Christiana will not prescribe you the ingredients for the perfect life! They will share their own insights, stories and struggles. And after listening there's a good chance you might feel more confused - we only hope you'll be confused at a deeper level.     We'd love to hear what you think.  NOTES AND RESOURCES   Understanding Ireland Citizen Visions of a Good Life 2030 Fifty Ways to Start a Climate Conversation Climate Week NYC: Love is the Answer   Learn more about the Paris Agreement.   It's official, we're a TED Audio Collective Podcast - Proof!

How good are you willing to let life gets?This is something that one of my mentors would often ask. It is truly a powerful question because it contains the truth about the good life that most highly successful people won't tell you: Life can get really, really good, but it's scary to let it!It requires us to let go of our need for safety and security and to step into the unknown beyond the boundaries we got used to. And that is a sacrifice most people are not willing to make. Just to make this clear - it's nobody's fault! This is a fear-based society, and the fear of the future is one of the strongest. Sometimes we're not even aware of how much courage it takes to move out of our comfort zone. However, once you learn to recognize the way of thinking caused by programming and conditioning, you'll be able to choose to grow over staying safe, and your life will quickly get lots easier and much more enjoyable.Tune in as I'm diving into choosing the good life and the experience of being committed to more and more of the good.Key Takeaways:- How good are you willing to let life get?

#951: There are key, intrinsic activities and aspects of work that truly make you come alive and within which are your greatest opportunities for top level success, and your greatest fulfillment and joy. But we don't tend to realize what they are. We attribute them to a specific job or business and the roles we had, the product or service we were involved with, the people included. But nearly every job or business ends or significantly changes and we lose it and try to recreate it based on those external ingredients. And often can't recreate it. Why? Because those are not the right ingredients. To showcase what the right ingredients are, I have Jonathan Fields back on the show. Jonathan was with me years ago and we talked about his book, How To Live A Good Life. He has a really big podcast called the Good Life Project, and now he's put together a work profile you can take for free at sparketype.com, and he goes deep into what sparks us in our work, in his new book, Sparked.

‘It’s five billion years away still.’ She replied: ‘What’s five billion?’Happy Earth Day! For over three months, we have ardently prepared for this day. Over 100 of us, but to be honest, I loose track. My own contribution today is a funny, melodramatic and quirky last episode. The whole second series of My Beautiful Stories – the podcast was dedicated to our planet. It is an issue I care about deeply, so why not tell you my own stories and connection with it? There are over 100 other people who are joining hands with us today. Today we tell you about a subtle realisation that parenting has led us to. We place our faith in the generations which follow us. If you have enjoyed this episode, or the whole series, which talks about pandas, perfume, coffee grounds and so much more, please do share with other people. It’s not that easy to record these episodes while we are all isolating… but we will continue to, if it matters.Support the show (https://ko-fi.com/alexcuncev)

I've known about Jonathan Fields for about five years now. We have tons of mutual friends and we even wracked our brains when we first got on Skype to do this interview, "Is it really possible we haven't met in real life?" So this was a fun time getting to know each other and geeking out on topics we're both really into like love of learning, creativity, the complexity of life in the 21st century, the humble pursuit of simplicity and more. We also get into some good stuff from his new book How To Live A Good Life, and talk about personality tests, strengths, and weaknesses. This conversation is more than good. Enjoy! About Jonathan Fields: Jonathan Fields inspires possibility. A New York City dad, husband, award-winning author, serial entrepreneur, teacher and strategist, he founded a number of game-changing wellness-companies, taught thousands of students and led workshops around the world on everything from yoga and mindfulness to conscious entrepreneurship and innovation. His new book, How to Live a Good Life: Soulful Stories, Surprising Science, and Practical Wisdom, offers a gateway to a life of meaning, connection and vitality. To celebrate the book’s release and inspire early interest, Jonathan is doing something pretty extraordinary. In addition to offering fantastic pre-order bonuses, he’s teamed with the One Tree Planted foundation to plant a 10,000 tree “Good Life Forest!” When you pre-order your copy of the book before the October 18th publication date, you’ll also be sponsoring a tree and doing good for the planet (and for you). You can get all the details at GoodLifeProject.com/book. Now, working with his wife and a world-class faculty, he runs mission-driven media and education venture, Good Life Project®, where they produce a top-rated podcast channel and video-series with hundreds of thousands of followers and millions of views and downloads. Good Life Project also offers in-person and online events and trainings, including their annual 400+ person Camp GLP gathering. Jonathan regularly keynotes at events and has been featured widely in the media, including The New York Times, USA Today, People, O Magazine, Vogue, Elle, Yoga Journal, SELF, Allure, Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg BusinessWeek, FastCompany, Inc., Entrepreneur and thousands of other places that sound cool, but don’t impress his daughter all that much. When not writing, teaching, building things or telling stories, he can be found dancing around his living room with his wife and daughter. In this episode, Jonathan shares: 1. How pop psychology and self-knowledge interface with each other when we're seeking. 2. Living by default rather than design. 3. Daily rituals and the three buckets he uses to simplify life  

Jonathan Fields, author of How To Live A Good Life and founder of The Good Life Project, explores what it really means to have a good life — spiritually, physically, emotionally — and a tactical approach to achieving it.
