In this compelling episode of "Father and Joe," hosts Father Boniface and Joe Rockey delve into the profound concept of what it truly means to make an offering to God during Mass. Often perceived as just the physical gifts like bread and wine, this episode uncovers the depth of offering our entire lives—including our emotions and experiences—as a symbolic gesture transubstantiated into the body and blood of Christ. Joe shares his transformative realization that the offerings are not limited to tangible items but encompass the entirety of our lives, our struggles, and our joys. Father Boniface elaborates on the notion of negativity and how it is an intrinsic part of human life. Drawing from the Psalms and the example of Our Lady's sorrows, he explains how God not only understands these emotions but provides us with the means to express them through sacred scripture. The conversation navigates through the delicate balance of honesty in our relationship with God, examining how these emotions, though perceived as significant in our lives, may not impact God in the same way. Yet, Father Boniface emphasizes that God, being outside of time, provides a pathway for us to offer everything to Him, making our human experience a worthy offering. Ultimately, listeners are invited to embrace the idea that it's not about the perfection of what we offer but the wholehearted surrender of our entire selves to God. The episode concludes with a poignant reminder that the courage to present everything to God—good, bad, and ugly—is central to nurturing a profound and intimate relationship with the divine. Father Boniface encourages a posture of trust, surrender, and honesty, reflecting on our eternal role as God's children, always welcome to bring our whole selves to the altar. This episode inspires listeners to carry this understanding into their lives, fostering a deeper sense of comfort and courage in their spiritual journey.Tags: Spirituality, Faith, Christian Living, Mass, Eucharist, Spiritual Growth, Offering, Transformation, Faith Journey, Emotional Growth, Religious Understanding, Divine Offering, God and Emotions, Relationship with God, Lament in Faith, Childlike Trust, Human Experience, Spiritual Honesty, Spiritual Direction, Religious Life, Scripture and Emotion, Mass offering, Bread and Wine, Transubstantiation, Vulnerability, Trust in God, Spiritual Challenges, Faith in Struggles, God's Presence, Eucharist Understanding, Mass Experience, Sacramental Life, Honest Prayers, Father Boniface Hicks, Joe Rockey, Communal Worship, God and Pain, Spiritual Dialogue, Faith GuidanceHashtags: #Spirituality, #Faith, #ChristianLiving, #Mass, #Eucharist, #SpiritualGrowth, #Offering, #Transformation, #FaithJourney, #EmotionalGrowth, #ReligiousUnderstanding, #DivineOffering, #GodAndEmotions, #RelationshipWithGod, #LamentInFaith, #ChildlikeTrust, #HumanExperience, #SpiritualHonesty, #SpiritualDirection, #ReligiousLife, #ScriptureAndEmotion, #MassOffering, #BreadAndWine, #Transubstantiation, #Vulnerability, #TrustInGod, #SpiritualChallenges, #FaithInStruggles, #GodsPresence, #EucharistUnderstanding, #MassExperience, #SacramentalLife, #HonestPrayers, #FatherBonifaceHicks, #JoeRockey, #CommunalWorship, #GodAndPain, #SpiritualDialogue, #FaithGuidanceThis line is here to correct the site's formatting error.

How does literature enrich our understanding of ourselves and of others, in ways that STEM fields and other forms of knowledge cannot? What is contained within the language of reading that you don't encounter with other art forms like painting or film?Arnold Weinstein is a Professor Emeritus of Comparative Literature at Brown University and the author of several books. His latest two publications are The Lives of Literature: Reading, Teaching, Knowing and Morning, Noon, and Night: Finding the Meaning of Life's Stages Through Books.Greg and Arnold discuss how literature offers unique and invaluable insights into the human experience, bridging historical and cultural divides. Their conversation examines the connections between literature and self-discovery, the challenges of teaching literature in a contemporary academic setting, and the enduring relevance of classic works from authors like William Faulkner, William Shakespeare, and Mark Twain. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:Life doesn't come in disciplines01:02:54: Literature helps you see history. That philosophy, et cetera, needs a good dosage of literature, which is why we created that course and let the disciplines—not the people, the disciplines themselves—do battle with each other. And there's no obvious answer here. There's no winner or loser. But the students were confused. They wanted to get what's the right take on this. Well, has anybody ever offered the right take on reality? Universities come packaged in disciplines. Life doesn't. It doesn't. All of our major problems cannot be solved with any single discipline, including economics and, you know, and coding.Literature makes us more human09:25: It's a good workout to read literature. It makes us more generous, as being able to award the notion of humanity to other people. Because I do not think you can kill them. You cannot stamp them out if you do not think back.Why great books leave you uneasy30:13: We are supposed to exit literature course, not exactly being more confused, but more embattled in a sense to see that other ways of being, as well as other ways, other values that people might have, is a kind of absolutely basic "meat-and-potatoes" element of human life. You cannot just live in your own silo, in your own scheme, even though you are locked in it. That's the point. We cannot exit ourselves.History isn't a fairy tale40:51: If we read the books, it only tells us what we want to know, which is what we are headed towards in this society today with the current political scene. Any text that is critical of American history is considered broke and therefore removed. And I'm worried that we are going to get a generation of people who think that American history is a fairy tale, which it is not, and no amount of rhetoric can change that. That we can police and prohibit these certain kinds of texts can take over the Kennedy Center, but we cannot, in fact, change what all of that is about, which is that we are still paying the bill for the history of racism and slavery in this country. It is not solved. We can just try to put it under the rug, but it is not solved by any means. So it is in that sense that the discomfort is required. If it simply massages us, say, "oh, this is terrific," then I think we are reading the wrong book.Show Links:Recommended Resources:Harold BloomFranz KafkaThe MetamorphosisSøren KierkegaardWilliam FaulknerMark TwainAdventures of Huckleberry FinnJamesBenito CerenoBlaise PascalWilliam ShakespeareKing LearHamletOthelloIagoToni MorrisonNaked LunchGuest Profile:Profile at Brown UniversityWikipedia PageProfile at Roundtable.orgGuest Work:Amazon Author PageThe Lives of Literature: Reading, Teaching, KnowingMorning, Noon, and Night: Finding the Meaning of Life's Stages Through BooksNorthern Arts: The Breakthrough of Scandinavian Literature and Art, from Ibsen to BergmanA Scream Goes Through the House: What Literature Teaches Us About LifeRecovering Your Story: Proust, Joyce, Woolf, Faulkner, MorrisonNobody's Home: Speech, Self, and Place in American Fiction from Hawthorne to DeLilloThe Great Courses - Classic Novels: Meeting the Challenge of Great Literature

As we begin to live in the present moment more and more, we can let go of our identity and therefore let go of the unconscious patterns that are reacting to life. We can now begin to lean on Divine Wisdom flowing through us to interact with life.————————————————————You can join the conversation Live every Monday at 6 pm ET on Facebook & YouTube!

In this episode, Guy Lawrence interviews Greg Doyle, an expert in astral travel and energy healing. Greg shares his insights on the nature of astral experiences, comparing them to our 3D reality and emphasizing the importance of recognizing our perfect essence. The conversation covers how the mainstream mirrors a conditioned reality and discusses Greg's journey from a classical musician to an astral traveler and energy healer. They delve into common reactions to his work, the intricacies of astral workshops, and the impact of these experiences on personal growth and understanding of death. Greg also touches on the humorous and guiding aspects of astral experiences, his thoughts on the karmic machinery of human life, and the potential for anyone to access astral travel through meditation and relaxation techniques. Finally, they discuss Greg's plans for the future and his advice on living an authentic life. This episode is a thought-provoking exploration of spirituality, consciousness, and the human experience. About Greg: Greg Doyle Greg Doyle is an Astral traveler, energy healer, author, and speaker. His interest and expertise in the mind/body/spirit connection, particularly in the areas of energy healing, meditation and the Out-of-Body-Experience (or astral travel/projection), has seen him help many people around the world move forward through their pain and obstacles and connect more fully with their joy and potential. As a trained classical musician, Greg discovered the benefits of meditation in his early twenties to help combat the stress of stage fright, recognizing the greater aspect of self in the process. In his late thirties, he began to leave his physical body spontaneously, and so began a guided process of consciousness expansion that would not only divert his career, but would also alter his very perception of being. Greg also teaches Reiki and meditation and has recently begun helping people awaken the dormant sense of astral projection that lies within them, using the energetic tools that he has developed over the past decade. He believes that astral awareness is a particularly valuable tool for spiritual expansion, as it is by its very nature fully experiential.

As we head into Labor Day weekend, I'm flexing one of my superpowers: organizing information. In this episode of The Pharmacist's Voice Podcast, I share the story behind my book binder — a simple but powerful system that helps me keep track of dozens of book recommendations and the 20–30 books I read each year. You'll hear how I went from barely finding time to read as a busy mom to becoming an audiobook enthusiast with a binder full of possibilities. I'll also share 26 books currently on my “to be read” list (plus the Spy School series I'm enjoying with my son Kraig). Maybe you'll discover your next great read from this podcast episode! Even if books aren't your thing, you'll walk away with this takeaway: what makes you weird might actually be your superpower. For me, it's organizing information. For you, it could be something else entirely — and when you embrace it, life gets easier, less stressful, and more fun. You just might help other people too!
In this episode of the No Brainer podcast, Geoff Livingston and Greg Verdino chat with Dave and Helen Edwards, co-founders of the Artificiality Institute, to explore the profound impact of AI on human experience and organizational culture. They discuss the philosophical and cultural shifts brought about by AI, the biases influencing narratives around productivity, and the importance of trust and AI literacy in navigating this new landscape. The conversation emphasizes the need for leaders to understand not just the complexities of AI integration into their organization, but the broader human experience it shapes.

In this episode of The Human Experience, host Jennifer Peterkin travels to Clermont, FL and welcomes Derek Newborn, who shares his raw and inspiring journey from abandonment, trauma, and self-destruction to transformation, healing, and purpose. Growing up in Fort Myers, Florida, Derek faced the pain of parental incarceration, single-parent struggles, and a deep sense of abandonment. Becoming a father at 16 and navigating hardships such as divorce, narcissism, and a suicide attempt, Derek reveals how he reached rock bottom and began the hard process of rebuilding his life. Through deep vulnerability, self-reflection, and a spiritual awakening, Derek learned to take ownership of his story. His journey of resilience offers listeners valuable insight into self-compassion, accountability, and the power of rewriting one’s narrative. ⚠️ Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of suicide and trauma. Listener discretion is strongly advised. Key Takeaways:● Childhood experiences and family dynamics shape adult struggles and emotional development.● Derek shares the impact of parental incarceration and the challenges of being raised by a single parent.● Abandonment and isolation influenced destructive patterns in relationships and self-worth.● His journey of self-discovery highlights the importance of accountability and rewriting one’s story.● Trauma is subjective—its impact depends on how it’s carried and processed.● Community support, vulnerability, and self-compassion are vital to healing.● Forgiveness is powerful but doesn’t always mean reconciliation.● Derek describes the shift from narcissism and self-centeredness to authentic connection.● A spiritual awakening redefined his purpose and ability to help others. Derek Newborn’s Bio:Once named one of Florida’s “Top Personal Trainers” and a published fitness model, Derek Newborn appeared to have it all. But beneath the surface, he was unraveling. Multiple suicide attempts, destructive relationships, and narcissistic behaviors nearly cost him everything. Instead of ending his life, Derek chose to end the version of himself that was destroying it. Through resilience, accountability, and faith, he rebuilt his life brick by brick. Today, Derek helps women escape toxic relationships with narcissists, reclaim their worth, and reconnect with their authentic selves—mentally, spiritually, and physically. Having lived many lives—teenage father, construction worker, trainer, model, business owner, and survivor—Derek proves it’s never too late to rewrite your story. His mission is clear: no matter how far you’ve fallen, you can rise again—and thrive. Connect with Derek Newborn:

Dr. Emeran Mayer welcomes Martin Picard, PhD, mitochondrial biologist and systems thinker, for a fascinating conversation on the hidden role of mitochondria in health, stress, and consciousness.Martin explains how mitochondria, far beyond being simple “powerhouses of the cell”, are dynamic regulators of energy, emotion, and resilience. He explores their symbiotic relationship with the gut microbiome and how this ancient partnership influences inflammation, mental health, and overall well-being.You'll also hear about Martin's concept of “intrinsic health,” a field-like state that integrates biology, energy flow, and human experience. Together, he and Dr. Mayer discuss why understanding energy as the potential for change may reshape how we think about health, stress, and even consciousness itself.Key Topics Covered:• The evolutionary story of mitochondria and their link to the gut microbiome• Why energy is best understood as flow rather than a fixed resource• The impact of stress on mitochondrial health and resilience• How intrinsic health connects science with lived experience• A new paradigm for understanding mental and physical well-beingDiscover how mitochondria and the microbiome together form the foundation of vitality, and why a holistic, systems-based view of health is essential for true well-being.

AI isn't just changing technology, it's changing how you approach intimacy.WATCH NEXT ➡︎ https://youtu.be/YoIHF4Ks65QWhat happens when the porn industry no longer needs human bodies? When desire is shaped by pixels instead of people? And when the first sexual experience for a generation might be with something that isn't even real?In this episode, we're tackling one of the most dangerous trends quietly taking over: AI-generated pornography.We'll cover:Why AI porn is not the “ethical” alternative it claims to beHow deepfakes and generative AI are rewiring sexual desireThe lie behind “it's better than sinning with a real person”Whether AI porn trains us to fear real intimacyWho, or what, you're actually worshiping when you engage with itWhat true sexual healing looks like in a world of artificial connectionIf you've ever wondered, “Is AI porn really that bad?” or “Does it even matter if no one's getting hurt?” this conversation is for you.You're being trained by what you're entertained by. Let's talk about what that means.
In this episode of Chasing Leviathan, PJ and Dr. Eric Nelson discuss his book 'Heidegger and Dao,' exploring the intersections between Heidegger's philosophy and Daoist thought. Dr. Nelson emphasizes the importance of charitable reading and intercultural hermeneutics, critiques the influence of technology on philosophical discourse, and highlights new documentation that reveals Heidegger's deeper engagement with Daoism. The discussion also delves into concepts of freedom, nothingness, nurturing darkness, and eco-mimesis, advocating for a more attuned and responsive way of living in relation to our environments.Make sure to check out Dr. Nelson's book: Heidegger and Dao: Things, Nothingness, Freedom (Daoism and the Human Experience)
Automation is reshaping workflows across various industries, from fast food to creative production, prompting a shift towards smaller, trust-based online communities. The discussion centers on the balance between efficiency and maintaining authentic human connections in the age of AI. Kate O'Neill, a tech humanist and founder of Kao Insights, emphasizes the importance of designing automation that empowers individuals rather than detracting from their experiences. The conversation explores how companies can foster meaningful connections while leveraging technology to streamline operations.The podcast highlights the case of McDonald's, which has been experimenting with AI to enhance its operational efficiency. Despite initial setbacks with AI voice systems, McDonald's continues to innovate, focusing on edge computing and predictive analytics to improve customer experience. O'Neill points out that the key to successful automation lies in aligning business objectives with customer expectations, ensuring that technology enhances rather than replaces the human experience. This alignment is crucial for brands to maintain trust and credibility with their customers.O'Neill discusses the significance of measuring meaning in business, suggesting that metrics like net promoter scores can serve as proxies for understanding customer satisfaction. She advocates for a comprehensive view of business models that incorporates meaningful measures at every stage. By doing so, organizations can better align their automation efforts with customer needs, ultimately leading to more impactful outcomes. The conversation underscores the necessity of integrating employee feedback into the process of defining purpose and meaning within organizations.As trust in digital platforms declines, O'Neill stresses the importance of shared values between brands and consumers. Companies must take on a governance role, operating from a place of responsibility and authenticity. By fostering trust through alignment with community values, businesses can create a more sustainable and meaningful relationship with their customers. The episode concludes with a call for organizations to articulate their purpose clearly, enabling employees to make decisions that resonate with both customer and employee experiences.

The desire to pursue a passion can be a powerful motivator for individuals, often driving them to learn and grow despite feelings of unqualification or inexperience. This theme is vividly illustrated in this podcast episode featuring tattoo artist Chris Crooks, who shares his journey into the world of tattooing with host Aaron Della Vedova. From a young age, Chris was immersed in tattoo culture, with both of his grandfathers and his father sporting tattoos. This early exposure ignited a desire within him to become a tattoo artist, even before he fully understood the craft. He reflects on how the "desire to do it was bigger than the capabilities," highlighting a common experience among many who pursue their passions. This intrinsic motivation propelled him to acquire the skills necessary for success in tattooing, despite his initial lack of experience. Aaron sits down with Chris at Gods of Ink in Frankfurt, Germany. Aaron reflects on the tattoo artist journey that is rarely straightforward and lacks a clear roadmap. The conversation explores the intricacies of the tattooing process and the passion that fuels artists in this creative field. Tune in for insights into the art of tattooing and the stories behind the ink.

"If you wanna come in right now, you better end up being fucking really good at this." "I just, I'm always curious, like, where'd that little part of me go?" "Don't ever betray yourself by being indecisive and waking up and find yourself in a position that, you know, if you had a clone, it would tell you don't do it?" "Tattooing is like this, this lifestyle, find a decision, make the decision, go all in." "The biggest stumbling blocks for white guys aspiring to do Japanese stuff is other white guys that have been doing it longer." "You have to engage with people... it's a new community and you have to treat people with the same respect you would in real life."
