This week marks a significant turning of the wheel for Wild Sovereign Soul, not only have we rebirthed as The Wild Sovereign Soul Show, which is the first phase of our wider rebirthing of *everything* we do, it's also the first episode of our co-founders Lian Brook-Tyler and Jonathan Wilkinson sitting down together for their monthly, free-flowing conversations honouring the path of the Wild Sovereign Soul. It's challenging to live in this crazy modern world, the Wild Sovereign Soul path is what we know will help. Each month, they'll be meeting live themes from the modern world head on, weaving together what they're currently consuming and creating, how wildness, sovereignty, and soul are showing up in their own lives, along with questions from listeners and the team, and the patterns they're seeing across our students and clients. There is room for curiosity, disagreement, and humour, alongside reflections drawn from their own experiences and initiations, as well as insights from ancient wisdom traditions, astrology, Gene Keys, shamanism, and more. The show offers grounded perspective, practical insights, and stirring activations for staying soul-led, aware, and responsive inside a modern culture that continually asks us to flatten and deaden ourselves. Each episode is also an invitation to journey deeper with the themes within the Wild Sovereign Soul community, UNIO. In this episode, Lian and Jonathan reflect on twelve years of shaping this work, and on the moment it became clear that Wild Sovereign Soul wasn't another rebrand, but a naming of what had always been at the heart of what they do. Just some of what they speak includes…. The increasing pain and struggle that so many of us are experiencing right now - even more so than they began this work 12 years ago, the soul as North Star, the choices that forge sovereignty, thawing bodies numbed by modern domestication, the moments that awaken soul through loss and love, and the ordinary places this path shows up, in nature, in boredom, and in the decision to say yes or no when it truly matters. Listen if you have ever felt out of place in the modern world, sensed there was a truer life waiting, or wondered what it actually takes to live it. We'd love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let's carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage. What you'll receive from this episode: Things aren't getting easier, they're only getting crazier and the Wild Sovereign Soul path is what brings us back to ourselves, each other and our own souls How reclaiming wildness restores instinct, belonging, and aliveness in a world that trains us to live from the neck up Why sovereignty always asks a price, and how choosing it reshapes fear, agency, and the way you meet challenge What happens when the soul becomes your North Star as a lived orientation that changes everything Resources and stuff Lian spoke about: Join UNIO, The Community for Wild Sovereign Souls: This is for the old souls in this new world… Discover your kin & unite with your soul's calling to truly live your myth.

REVOLUTION, ASSASSINATION, AND CHAOS Colleague Professor James Romm. Dion launched an invasion to liberate Syracuse, but the revolution unleashed chaotic populist passions he could not control. After ordering the assassination of a rival, Dion fell into a depression and was eventually assassinated by a faction of his own army. Rommnotes that ancient historians, including Plutarch, largely protected Dion's reputation to safeguard the prestige of Plato's Academy, despite Dion's failure to become a true philosopher king.

There, the former absolute ruler became a music teacher, leading to the proverb "Dionysius is in Corinth," a saying used for centuries to describe the unpredictability of fortune and the fall of the powerful.

Among the most prolific and everywhere-all-at-once people in the world of art—whose peripatetic path has taken him from a sheltered upbringing in a small Swiss village to his current post in London at the Serpentine—Obrist has been curating shows for more than three decades. During this time, he has recorded conversations with thousands of artists, architects, and others shaping culture and society. He's also the author of dozens of books, most recently Life in Progress, released in the U.K. this fall, with the U.S. edition coming out next spring.On this episode, Obrist reflects on 25 years of the Serpentine Pavilion, which has become a defining annual moment in culture globally and a springboard for many of today's leading voices in architecture, including Lina Ghotmeh (the guest on Ep. 129 of Time Sensitive) and Frida Escobedo, and his firm belief that we all need to embrace more promenadology—the science of a stroll—in our lives.Special thanks to our Season 12 presenting sponsor, Van Cleef & Arpels.Show notes:[00:47] Hans Ulrich Obrist[5:18] Brutally Early Club[7:40] Frank Gehry[8:20 ] Bettina Korek[8:28] Luma Arles[10:21] Pierre Boulez[13:10] Etel Adnan[19:37] Giorgio Vasari[21:22] Ludwig Binswanger[27:20] “Life in Progress”[37:48] Peter Fischli & David Weiss[34:00] Kasper König[39:09] Maria Lassnig[39:35] Serpentine Galleries[43:24] Musée d'Art Moderne de Paris[48:11] Serpentine Pavilion[51:15] Frida Escobedo[51:49] Lina Ghotmeh[56:11] The FLAG Art Foundation[56:37] Play Pavilion[56:58] Serpentine General Ecology[58:00] Serpentine Arts Technologies[1:02:08] “Peter Doig: House of Music”[1:04:11] “Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley: The Delusion”[1:05:00] Édouard Glissant[1:05:47] Umberto Eco[1:12:28] Lucius Burckhardt[1:12:28] Cedric Price[1:11:56] Robert Walser

Jaysyn reflects on her journey into the classroom, inspired by an eighth-grade history teacher who helped her see the power of connecting personal experience to historical truth.

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Avik sits down with neuroscience-based coach Dorota Kosiorek to unpack why doing more stops working—and how elite performers can shift from pressure to presence. We get tactical on dopamine loops, subconscious “autopilot,” and boundary-setting as a performance system. Dorota breaks down her Elite Mind Framework—from clarifying values to rewiring limiting beliefs—so leaders can achieve more by doing less, with calm confidence instead of chronic overdrive. If your calendar runs you, this is your reset. About the guest : Dorota Kosiorek is a neuroscience-based coach and creator of the Elite Mind Framework. After 15 years across consulting and startups, she helps high achievers build healthy selfishness, stronger boundaries, and a results-without-burnout operating model. Key takeaways: High achievers often chase dopamine hits from goals; the drop after “arrival” fuels endless pursuit and burnout. Rest ≠ laziness. Reframe recovery as a strategic input that compounds focus, creativity, and output. Autopilot rules 95% of day-to-day choices; noticing subconscious patterns is step one to changing them. Boundaries are performance infrastructure: set personal non-negotiables and practice saying no without apology. Start with values and “why” to align goals with peace—not at the expense of it. The Elite Mind Framework pillars: Explore (values/why), Liberate (subconscious reprogramming), Integrate (courage and confidence), Transcend (boundaries/healthy selfishness), Embody (purposeful, slower, legacy-driven living). Known but misaligned environments feel “safer” to the brain; courage is required to exit toxic success loops. Practical first move: schedule protected time just for you weekly; treat it as immovable as a board meeting.

Emily joined me today for another episode of Cosmic Wisdom. We addressed the very busy week ahead as well as the longer term outlook of the next several months. A number of themes emerged from our conversation, including these gifts of the cosmic forces:* We have the power to liberate our minds from the programming and entrainment so prevalent right now;* We are in a concentrated period of endings in preparation for the new beginnings coming in 2026;* We are supported to heal old childhood stories and ways in which we haven't claimed our right (and duty) to be fully ourselves;* The return of Uranus to Taurus plus Saturn and Neptune to Pisces reminds us of the spiritual dimension to the material realm;* The number of planets in water signs encourages us to feel deeply, and use the power of our emotions consciously in service to what we desire.Emily has a cool program coming in the new year to support people in their Saturn returns; make sure to join her mailing list to hear all about it.My energy forecast for 2026 is this Saturday, November 8th, free for paid subscribers, or register here for only $22.And, join me for an in-person Capricorn Solstice retreat to renew your life, December 19-22nd at a high desert hot springs, Ojo Santa Fe.

From those lessons came a return to first principles—the farm, the tribe, and the eight pillars of performance.Together, they unpack:The real story behind Swiss 8's evolution from app to retreatHow stress, isolation, and loss of purpose mirror across soldiers, athletes, and everyday performersThe eight pillars of Swiss 8—Move, Heal, Breathe, Liberate, Survive, Connect, Defend, TranscendWhy modern psychology and medication often miss the markThe healing power of nature, shared suffering, and manual labourRaising resilient humans through movement, critical thinking, and connectionThis is a raw, open conversation on identity, purpose, and rebuilding what matters—inside and out.
You've achieved success, checked the boxes, and earned recognition… so why do you still feel empty?In this episode, I unpack the hidden story beneath achievement: the belief that you're never enough. Many high achievers live driven by an inner critic, a voice formed in childhood, telling them they must constantly prove themselves to feel worthy.We'll explore:Why success alone can't fill the void insideHow childhood experiences shape the need for external validationHow to shift from proving yourself to realizing you've always been enoughIf you're ready to break free from the endless hustle and reclaim joy, self-trust, and liberation, this episode is for you.Find me at www.carriebradley.com or on IG @carriebradlycoaching for daily insights on freedom.

Cristina Comencini"L'epoca felice"Feltrinelli Editorewww.feltrinellieditore.itRosa sa di avere un vuoto nella memoria, un lungo intervallo di tempo che segna con una riga netta la fine della sua adolescenza: la ragazzina vitale, inquieta, fantasiosa è diventata una giovane diligente e fin troppo responsabile. Quei mesi – persi, cancellati – sono gli stessi in cui i genitori, spaventati dalla sua esuberanza e dai cattivi risultati a scuola, l'avevano ricoverata in una clinica del sonno, come usava negli anni settanta.Ora che Rosa è una donna matura, dopo anni trascorsi all'estero in missioni umanitarie, rientra in Italia. Ed ecco che il tempo perduto si riaffaccia da una vecchia fotografia che la ritrae durante una gita in montagna. Da quello scatto, i suoi quindici anni cocciuti e felici la interrogano: dov'è finita la ragazzina che preoccupava tanto i genitori, ormai scomparsi, e che adesso a lei sembra la parte più autentica e vitale di sé? E chi è il ragazzo che ha scattato quella fotografia, perché sente che c'è con lui qualcosa da recuperare, un sentimento da trarre in salvo dall'oblio? Per ricomporre la sua vita spezzata e recuperare il passato, Rosa ha bisogno delle sorelle: Margherita, la maggiore, che quella gita la ricorda bene, e Viola, la più giovane, pronta a scardinare insieme a lei segreti e silenzi di famiglia.È difficile rappresentare il momento fuggevole della felicità, ma Cristina Comencini ci riesce, incastonandola come un prisma nel tempo dell'adolescenza, delle sue turbolenze emotive, dei suoi saliscendi spiazzanti, abbaglianti.L'adolescenza è l'ultima occasione. Se non capiamo cosa ci è successo in quegli anni, rifacciamo continuamente gli stessi errori.Cristina Comencini nasce a Roma nel 1956. Figlia del regista Luigi Comencini e madre di Carlo, Giulia e Luigi, esordisce al cinema come attrice nel 1969, diretta dal padre in Infanzia, vocazione e prime esperienze di Giacomo Casanova, veneziano, accanto a Tina Aumont e Maria Grazia Buccella. Laureata in Economia e Commercio con Federico Caffè, lavora per alcuni anni come giornalista economica e ricercatrice. Inizia la carriera di scrittrice nel cinema sceneggiando insieme al padre il film TV Il matrimonio di Caterina (1982) e il lungometraggio Buon Natale... Buon anno del 1989; è co-sceneggiatrice di Ennio De Concini in Quattro storie di donne (1986) e autrice insieme a Suso Cecchi D'Amico dei televisivi Cuore e La Storia, entrambi diretti dal padre.Nel 1988 esordisce alla regia con una fiaba lieve e aggraziata, Zoo, cui fanno seguito l'ambizioso ed elegante I divertimenti della vita privata (1990), il criptico e sinuoso La fine è nota (1992, tratto dal romanzo omonimo di Geoffrey Holliday Hall), il fortunato Matrimoni (1998) e successivamente Liberate i pesci con Michele Placido e Laura Morante, passando nel 1995 per la trascrizione in immagini del celebrato bestseller di Susanna Tamaro Va' dove ti porta il cuore. Del 2005 è La bestia nel cuore, pellicola nominata all'Oscar come miglior film straniero e premiata al Festival del Cinema di Venezia con la Coppa Volpi per l'interprete femminile protagonista, Giovanna Mezzogiorno. Nel gennaio 2008 Cristina Comencini è tornata al cinema con Bianco e nero, commedia e storia d'amore appassionato tra un giovane uomo italiano senza grandi idee sul tema dell'Africa e una donna senegalese che vive in Italia da dieci anni. Sceneggiatrice de La donna della mia vita, ha partecipato alla 68. edizione della Mostra Internazionale di Arte Cinematografica di Venezia con il lungometraggio Quando la Notte. Latin Lover con un cast quasi tutto al femminile del 2015. Qualcosa di nuovo, adattamento cinematografico dello spettacolo teatrale La scena, è il suo penultimo film, uscito nel 2017. Successivamente realizza il documentario Sex Story e il film Tornare, presentato in anteprima alla Festa del Cinema di Roma nel 2019.Cristina Comencini è anche autrice e regista di pièces teatrali (Due Partite, 2006; Est Ovest, 2009; il dialogo Libere, 2010, La scena 2013; Tempi Nuovi 2017) e di numerosi romanzi editi da Einaudi (Essere vivi, 2016, Da soli, 2018, L'altra donna, 2021) e da Feltrinelli (Pagine strappate, 1991; Passione di famiglia, 1994; Matrioska, 2002; La bestia nel cuore, 2004; Due partite, 2006; L'illusione del bene, 2007, finalista al Premio Strega; Quando la Notte, 2009; La nave più bella 2012; Lucy, 2014; Voi non la conoscete, 2014; Flashback, 2022; L'epoca felice, 2025).

How can we address the problem of violence against the poor? International Justice Mission exists to answer this question with protecting and rescuing victims, bringing criminals to justice, restoring survivors to safety and strength, and helping local law enforcement build a safe future that lasts. In this episode, International Justice Mission's founder and CEO, Gary Haugen, joins Mark Labberton to reflect on almost three decades of IJM's fight against violence and slavery worldwide—and the spiritual formation that sustains it. Haugen shares the origins of IJM in response to systemic violence against the poor, the evolution from individual rescues to transforming justice systems, and the remarkable rise of survivor leaders transforming their own nations. Together they reflect on courage, joy, and faith amid immense risk—bearing witness to God's power to bring justice and healing through ordinary people. Episode Highlights “Protecting the poor from violence is God's weight, but it's our work, and we're gonna seek to do it Jesus's way.” ”In this era, I just think what the world is aching to see is the followers of Jesus who have a incandescent freedom from fear and a life-giving joy.” “Most of this violence will go away if government does just even a decent job of enforcing the law.” “Our first commitment is to help each other become more like Jesus—and from that strength, to do justice.” “The greatest miracle of IJM is not only the results—it's the freedom from fear and the joy with which they've done it.” “God saw them in their darkness, and they now testify to the goodness of an almighty God who loved them.” Helpful Links and Resources International Justice Mission – https://www.ijm.org Gary Haugen, The Locust Effect: Why the End of Poverty Requires the End of Violence – https://www.amazon.com/Locust-Effect-Poverty-Requires-Violence/dp/0199937877 Gary Haugen, Just Courage: God's Great Expedition for the Restless Christian – https://www.amazon.com/Just-Courage-Expedition-Restless-Christian-ebook/dp/B001PSEQR4 Riverside Church Sermon by Martin Luther King Jr., “Beyond Vietnam” — https://kinginstitute.stanford.edu/encyclopedia/beyond-vietnam William Lloyd Garrison biography – https://www.britannica.com/biography/William-Lloyd-Garrison Rwanda Genocide Investigation (UN Historical Overview) – https://www.un.org/en/preventgenocide/rwanda About Gary Haugen Gary Haugen is the founder and CEO of International Justice Mission (IJM), the world's largest international anti-slavery organization.

Also Tony had to pause the show to use the toilet. Which is just what they call it there, he'll get pissed at me if I call it a “restroom” or a “bathroom.” It's the toilet!! Today we came upon the weirdest beer related PR push of all time, and I honestly cannot unlock what is happening there. Some really bizarre stuff. I would try “Dale's IPA,” I just want that out there. I would try it and I think it'll be pretty good. I would also try a beer called Lucky O'Reilly or Mo'Mummy. Even if they are actually slot machines, I would give them a shot. Anyways, see you next week. ★ Support this podcast ★

What fuels a business? It all starts with the dream. In this episode, we look at lessons from the legendary Michael E. Gerber, author of The E-Myth Revisited, who first championed the idea that entrepreneurs must cultivate their dream before anything else. From there, we explore why emotion is the spiritual energy behind every great business, movement, or mission. Without it, even brilliant ideas and top teams fall flat. With it, you attract missionaries instead of mercenaries—people who believe in your vision and help you build something that lasts. Defining a higher purpose is an overlooked advantage. Bring that spiritual dimension into your company and your people can put a small dent in the universe. --- Bring in the Spiritual Dimension Hi everyone. Today I want to share something really special. I recently had the honor on interviewing the great Michael Gerber, yes, the author of The E-Myth Revisited on my podcast. Now, Michael is close to 89 years old, but let me tell you, he's still sharp as a samurai's blade. During our conversation, Michael emphasized just how important it is for every entrepreneur to cultivate their dream. Because the dream, it fuels your passion for the business. And once it's alive, it becomes the energy behind everything else. Your role as a thinker, a storyteller, a leader, a designer, a builder, a launcher, and ultimately a grower. It really hit me. All of this is about tapping into one thing, emotion. Think about it. You can have brilliant ideas, unique assets, and a team of full of A-players. But without emotion, nothing happens. Emotion is the fuel in the tank of your business. And doesn't that sound familiar? Every great religion, every movement, every political ideology in history, what did they all do? They tapped into the spiritual power of emotion to rally people. So why would it be any different in a business? Here's the real question. Do you want mercenaries or missionaries helping you to grow your business? If it's the latter, then you need a mission that excites you and inspires your people. The good news? Every company already has a seed of a great mission inside it. At Summit OS®, we call this the Company Why™. And here's the thing: it's not about inventing it—it's about unearthing it, polishing it, and sharing it boldly. Let me give you a few powerful examples. “Liberate people from unhealthy and unpleasant tasks”. That's the 'Why' of Combi Packaging Systems. A maker of packaging machines that help people not have to climb high ladders or work in dusty and steamy places. “Facilitate people's independence and self-determination”. That's the 'Why' of RackN that manages physical server parks. “Transform people to help fulfill their potential and enjoy a better social life”. That's the 'Why' of Eos Rejuvenation, a facial plastic surgery in Los Angeles. And finally, “Help entrepreneurs reach their Ideal Lives while creating a positive impact”. That's our very own 'Why' at Summit OS Group. Defining a higher purpose is the number one missed opportunity for business owners, and yet it's one of the most powerful ways to create excitement, pride, attract top talent, and spark creativity in your business. So don't forget to bring that spiritual dimension into your company because when you do, your people will begin to put a small dent in the universe. If you'd like to dive deeper, check out SummitOS.co for more videos on this concept. And until next time, keep growing.

How would you feel if you were cursed to die in seven days? Not very good. But Parīkṣit Mahārāj said, ‘Let the snake-bird, or whatever magical creature this boy has conjured, bite me at once. All I want is to go on hearing the transcendental vibration about Kṛṣṇa.' He wasn't disturbed by it. In fact, there's a list of symptoms given in the Madhya-līlā of the Śrī Caitanya Caritāmṛta, which is the teachings and pastimes of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. That's another book besides the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam. It's a must-have, by the way. And within that, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu teaches Sanātana Gosvāmī the tenets of bhakti-yoga. In one section, he describes what symptoms one would have when one becomes spiritually advanced. He gives Parīkṣit Mahārāj as an example of a highly advanced person. The first symptom of the heart being spiritually enlivened, otherwise known as bhāva, is that he didn't mind being cursed. It was called kṣāntir, a kind of immediate forgiveness of the situation. He said, ‘You're cursed.' A little boy cursed you, and it's effective. So it's coming. There's a snake-bird coming for you. And he said, ‘Let it come. It's the arrangement of the Lord.' In fact, his opinion was that this is Kṛṣṇa's arrangement for me. He said, "I was a king. I was so attached to all my things. How else would I have given them up? But now I have an excuse. A perfect excuse." Who else got an excuse in the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam to walk out on his family? Vidura. Vidura was not cursed, but he was insulted severely by Duryodhana. You remember this? Vidura was trying to stand up for the Pāṇḍavas, and Duryodhana said, ‘Who is this guy, anyway? He's not even full-blooded, part of our family. He's a mutt. Get him out of here! I'll beat him up! I'll beat him out of here!' In that very moment, Vidura felt, ‘This is Kṛṣṇa's opening for me to go out and just be absorbed and go on pilgrimage.' This is what you do when nothing else works out. You just go to the Dhām. He went on pilgrimage for many years. He walked outside that palace, laid down his bow and arrow right on the doorstep, and then he was unrecognizable after that. No one could tell where he was, or they couldn't see him anymore. So, the times in which we're tested most deeply in this world are the times when we can understand, 'How spiritually advanced am I?' One of the first symptoms is called kṣāntir. It means the heart is forgiving. It's like, 'Okay, it's Kṛṣṇa's arrangement.' This is embodied in one of the most famous verses that we're going to visit today, in the 14th chapter of the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam. “Prabhupada Picks” refers to a selection of verses from the 10th Canto of the Srimad Bhagavatam that Srila Prabhupada memorized himself and quoted very frequently in his teachings.

Listen now and take the first step toward more confidence, freedom, and self-respect.--------------------------------------------- Welcome to another episode of Shrink for the Shy Guy, where we tackle the challenges of social anxiety, people-pleasing, and self-doubt to help you confidently show up as your true self. Today's episode is about breaking free from the crippling grip of anxiety—specifically, how the need to control your environment can intensify your feelings of anxiety and hold you back. Why Do We Feel Anxious? Anxiety is an uncomfortable and unsettling feeling, often accompanied by thoughts of worry or fear. It's that nagging voice in your head telling you that something bad is going to happen, causing your body to feel on edge, frantic, or even panicked. Anxiety can show up anywhere—whether it's in social situations, at work, or in personal relationships. But what if I told you that the key to reducing anxiety isn't about finding a quick fix or a silver bullet, but about changing how you relate to the anxiety itself? The Need for Control: The Root Cause of Anxiety Here's the truth: Anxiety often stems from the need to control. When we feel like we need something to happen a certain way—whether it's for people to like us, to be successful, or to avoid discomfort—we trigger anxiety. We think, "If I don't control this, something bad will happen." For example, consider the anxiety we feel about sleep. Maybe you're stressed about getting enough rest, but the more you stress about it, the harder it becomes to fall asleep. This is a perfect example of how our need to control a situation causes the anxiety itself. The more we believe that we need to control the outcome, the more anxiety we create. Stand-out Quote: "Anxiety comes from the need to control. The more you try to control something, the more anxiety you create." Shifting Your Relationship with Anxiety So, how do we break free from the grip of anxiety and control? The solution isn't a magic pill or a one-time fix. It's about awareness and practice. Acknowledge the need to control: The first step in breaking the cycle is recognizing when you're trying to control something. Notice how your thoughts tell you, “I need this to go right, or else.” Sit with discomfort: Instead of avoiding discomfort or trying to control it, choose to face it. Anxiety will always be present when we try to control our emotions or outcomes. By allowing yourself to feel the discomfort without attaching a need to control it, you can start to decrease its power over you. Let go of the “or else”: Remind yourself that even if things don't go as planned, you will be okay. By choosing to stop controlling and embracing uncertainty, you take back your power. The Long-Term Solution: Training Yourself to Think Differently The real liberation from anxiety comes when you train yourself over time to think and act differently. Just like building muscle at the gym, overcoming anxiety takes consistent practice. The more you practice letting go of the need to control, the less anxiety will dictate your actions. It's not about never feeling anxious again. It's about learning to respond differently to anxiety when it arises. You can train your nervous system to become more regulated, even in the face of discomfort. The more you practice this, the stronger your sense of confidence becomes. You Have the Power to Change If you're ready to break the avoidance cycle and take control of your anxiety, the first step is acknowledging the need to control and learning how to let go. This may feel uncomfortable at first, but remember—you don't have to do this alone. You can train yourself over time to build lasting confidence and handle life's challenges without anxiety taking the lead. Action Step: Today, notice when you're trying to control something. Whether it's a conversation, your schedule, or how others perceive you, take a moment to breathe and remind yourself that it's okay not to control everything. Let go, and see what happens. Remember, the path to confidence is built one step at a time, and you are capable of taking that first step today. Until we speak again, may you have the courage to be who you are and know on a deep level that you're awesome.
