In this special roundtable episode of Restorative Works!, host Claire de Mezerville López brings together a powerful group of restorative justice practitioners, educators, and leaders to explore the creation and impact of the Restorative Rainbow Alliance's Facilitator Code of Conduct. Guests Ames Stenson and Rami El Gharib, co-founders of the Restorative Rainbow Alliance, join Lindsey Pointer and Kathleen McGoey, co-authors of The Little Book of Restorative Teaching Tools, to share the story behind this groundbreaking initiative. Together, they reflect on the urgent need for LGBTQ+ affirming practices within restorative justice, drawing from lived experiences, community dialogue, and the gaps that led to harm when identity and power were not fully considered in restorative conferences.   The conversation explores how the Alliance's Code of Conduct, now adopted as a foundational document in Colorado, offers both guidance and a call to reflection for practitioners seeking to move beyond cis-heteronormative frameworks and toward truly inclusive, equitable practice. The group also highlights a collaborative effort to bring the code to life through an engaging, experiential learning activity: Inclusive Facilitation: Increasing LGBTQ+ Awareness in Restorative Justice. Designed as a companion tool, this resource supports practitioners in navigating discomfort, building empathy, and applying inclusive principles to real-life scenarios through dialogue, play, and reflection. Throughout the episode, listeners are invited into a rich and honest conversation about harm, accountability, identity, and growth. The guests emphasize the importance of curiosity, compassion, and the willingness to sit with complexity as essential elements of restorative practices, especially when working toward belonging for LGBTQ+ communities. This episode offers both inspiration and practical pathways for anyone committed to deepening fostering spaces where all identities are affirmed and valued. Tune in to learn from these wonderful guests, and we invite you to explore the Restorative Teaching Tool activity for the Facilitator Code of Conduct here.

Marc Kramer, host of the award winning The Best Business Minds, interviews Justin Evans author of "The Little Book of Data: Understanding the Powerful Analytics that Fuel AI, Make or Break Careers, and Could Just End Up Saving the World"

Greetings Friends,We are moving through this wonderful collection of encounters with Buddhist Women found in the book The Hidden Lamp for our Summer Read. This week we met Keizan Zenji and Mokufu Sonin engaged in the dialogue below:Hidden Lamp Case 20: Sonin's Shadeless TreeMaster Keizan Jokin asked the nun Mokufu Sonin, “The winter is coming to an end and the springtime is arriving. There is an order to this. What is your understanding?” Sonin replied, “In the braches of a tree without shade, how could there be any seasons?”These two people are very important figures in the history of Zen Buddhism. They are direct Ancestors in our Soto Zen lineage tree. So, they are our Ancestors. What is an Ancestor? One way we understand Ancestor in Buddhism is someone who aligns their heart and mind with the aspiration to awaken and liberate all beings from suffering. So, someone who wants to help us wake up! But one Zen teacher says in actuality —all beings are your ancestor.What would it be like to truly see the world this way?Are all beings trying to awaken us?Is everyone we meet helping us on this path of liberation from suffering?Are they, through their words, thoughts and actions aiding us in opening our own hearts and minds to the love, compassion and wisdom of this universe?It may not always feel that way. But we can aspire to practice as if it were true, this is taking the view of bodhicitta— the great compassion unfolding this life.Connecting to the Zen Ancestors can remind us that humans have been walking this path of awakening for a long time. They were shaped by the path and they also shaped or opened new dimensions of the path through their embodied walking. I find that hearing the ancestor's stories is a lot like pulling a tarot card, or reading a myth or fairytale. Their life stories usually contain dharma teachings, universal themes about the path, but also personal dimensions that may resonate with our own struggles, questions, doubts, curiosities or lived experience.Keizan's PathKeizan Zenji is a great example of this. Considered the “mother of Soto Zen”, he was born in the early years of Soto Zen in Japan, just eleven years after Dogen Zenji (the founder) died. His mother and his grandmother were both Zen practitioners, but also embodied and practiced a more ancient form of spirituality that was common amongst women at the time—a form of spirituality we might call “folk” or “shamanistic” or “animist”. (In her recent books, Bringing Zen Home and The Little Book of Zen Healing Paula Arai explores how the blend of Zen and shamanism is still alive in how many lay women engage in dharma practice).Below is an excerpt from Sallie Tisdale's book Women of the Way, here she shares the story of Keizan's birth. This short selection introduces us to some of the people and practices that influenced Keizan throughout his life.Many years later, when Ekan Daishi was thirty-seven years old, she had a dream. She swallowed the morning light, warm and as soft as silk, and it filled her entire body. A few days later she realized she was pregnant. Then she prayed, as she had often prayed, to the beloved statue of Kannon: “May this child be a spiritual leader, a benefit to all, and please, may the delivery be easy.” For the next seven months, she bowed 1,333 times each day and recited the Kannon Sutra. The baby was born on the property of the Kannon Temple in the province of Echizen, without pain. A short while later Daishi took vows as a nun, and the baby's grandmother, Myōchi, helped raise him.So Keizan was raised with a deep connection to both his mother and grandmother and to the Bodhisattva Kannon (who is the bodhisattva of compassion). He was brought up in an enchanted world, where kami (spirits) filled the natural world, where Buddha's and Bodhisattva's appeared in dreams, where even the mundane aspects of life were part of the art, the ritual of living in an interconnected world of mutual reciprocity. A world emerging from the great compassion of Kannon. Keizan also listened to the wisdom of his dreams, practiced Buddhist astrology and geomancy. He was instrumental in creating and recording the ceremonies we have throughout the Buddhist liturgical year. His love for the ancestors, led him to gather the stories of the Zen Buddhist lineage dating back to Shakyamuni Buddha. Creating a mythological retelling of their lives, and giving teachings inspired by their stories. This collection of his dharma talks on the ancestors, is called the Denkuroku, the Transmission of the Light.Here's another selection from Women of the Way revealing some of the ways he practiced and saw the world, and how he carried his mother's vow forward after she died.His dreams about Yōkōji were strong and good, filled with spirits and buddhas. Even the stars overhead, streaming slowly between the black branches of the pines, were correctly aligned. The hills were no more beautiful than other nearby hills, but he could see through these particular hills to the hidden hills beneath. He believed that he could see the true monastery already there, the one belonging to the other world—the world of protectors and guides. In this place, where the boundary between worlds was very thin, he would build the Monastery of the Eternal Light. A year later Daishi died. Almost at the moment of her death she reached for her son's hand. “I made a vow to Kannon,” she said. “You must continue it. You must help all beings come to the Dharma. Especially, most especially, because you can, you must help all women of the three worlds and the ten directions. “Take the little statue,” she added, nodding toward the Kannon she had found all those years ago in the mud. “Take care of it forever.” In her memory, Keizan ordered that a Sōtō women's temple, Hōō-ji, be built in the province of Kaga.Keizan and Sonin's Dharma FriendshipOne of the most remarkable aspects of Keizan, is that he really took this vow to heart. Sonin was a patron, she donated the mountain where Keizan built Yokoji, one of the many monasteries he helped found, and the one where he spent most of his time. After Sonin's husband died, she went to Keizan to ask for ordination. The night before Keizan had a dream that his beloved deceased grandmother came to him and asked for ordination. From this point on he regarded Sonin as a reincarnation of his grandmother, and the two were very close as teacher and student, and then as friends and collaborators. Keizan wrote that the two of them were like, “magnet and iron.”Keizan wrote that Sonin's aspiration for awakening “clarifies each day”, that “she radiates kindness” and that her “insight is ripening”, shortly before the dialogue above took place. He had asked her about, “temporal existence” and she was unable to answer. She let this question work on her. And sometime later asked Keizan to engage in dharma combat. That is when he asked her about the seasons changing from winter to spring. Sonin's understanding was clear, and she was able to meet Keizan in the place with neither light or shadow.Sonin is the first woman in the Soto Zen lineage of Japan to receive full dharma transmission. Keizan gave transmission to two other women, Konto Ekyu and Myosho Ekan, before he died. (Keizan's mother Ekan Daishi, Mokufu Sonin, Konto Ekyu and Myosho Ekan are all part of the Women's Lineage found in the ZCO chant book, at the monastery we would chant their names as part of morning service twice a week.)In closing, this short snapshot into the lives of Keizan and Sonin, I want to share another excerpt from the Women of the Way.In 1322 Keizan and the nuns founded Enzūin, the Temple of All Pervading Perfection, across the stream from the mountain gate, hidden in the trees. Enzūin was dedicated to the well-being of women forever, and it was most especially meant as an honor to his grandmother and in keeping the promise he made to his mother Ekan Daishi when she died.At the dedication, the statue of Kanzeon, with its eleven serene faces, was installed as the main image. It had come to seem like an animate thing, hearing and acting on the prayers of its bearers. In its base Keizan placed a lock of his own baby hair and his umbilical cord, which his mother had preserved. In this way, he gave his own life to this women's hermitage in the trees. Sonin was the first living abbot there, although Ekan Daishi was considered the first ancestoral abbot. There is still a portrait of Ekan Daishi, Keizan's mother and Sonin as the first abbots on the Yokoji temple property.So, here is a story of the legacy of two Zen Ancestors. If you want to learn more, listen to the podcast where I also explore this short koan exchange and how we too are shadeless trees, in the midst of the changing seasons of our lives. If you are curious to learn more about Keizan and Sonin, there is this great resource here.Is there are any aspects of Keizan and Sonin's story that piqued your interest or felt resonate with your own life and practice?

This week on the Bourbon Bytes podcast, we're diving into new whiskey releases from Blue Run, Little Book, Very Old St. Nick, 15 Stars, and one of the strangest TTB labels I've seen in a while: a goat milk flavored whiskey from Tamworth. On the gaming side, Microsoft is making headlines with 8,000-year Xbox bans for Forza Horizon 6 pirates, while Xbox Game Pass is adding a new Discord Nitro perk. Then it's time for a Byte-Sized Review of King of Kentucky 16 Year Bourbon. This 2024 release from Brown-Forman is a 16-year-old Kentucky straight bourbon bottled at 132 proof, with only about 5,100 bottles released. It shares the same mash bill as Old Forester 1924, but at six years older and full barrel strength, does it live up to the King of Kentucky name? Expect deep oak, antique wood, cedar chest, dark roasted nuts, molasses, tannic richness, and a long finish.

While the podcast team is taking a Radical Sabbatical, Kim is interviewing authors of the books that have had a big impact on her in the past two years. In this episode, she's speaking with Daniel Coyle about his new book, Flourish, The Art of Building Meaning, Joy and Fulfillment.  What is a meaningful life, and how do we make one? How do certain communities foster closeness, fulfillment, happiness, and energy?  Daniel Coyle has spent the last few years trying to crack this code.  He talks about the transformation that happened during the famous story of the 33 miners trapped 2000 feet underground in a mine in Chile.  It turns that the key to survival was a leader who was willing to let go of control.  You can't command and control your way to flourishing--or surviving in a crisis.  Background on Daniel Coyle: Daniel is the New York Times bestselling author of The Culture Code, which was named Best Business Book of the Year by Bloomberg, BookPal, and Business Insider. Coyle has served as an advisor to many high-performing organizations, including the Navy SEALs, Microsoft, Google, and the Cleveland Guardians. His other books include The Talent Code, The Secret Race, The Little Book of Talent, and Hardball: A Season in the Projects, which was made into a movie starring Keanu Reeves. Coyle was raised in Anchorage, Alaska, and now lives in Cleveland Heights, Ohio, during the school year and in Homer, Alaska, during the summer with his wife, Jenny, and their four children.

#881 What if everything you've been trying to hide — the fear, the insecurity, the old beliefs — is actually the doorway to everything you want? In part two of this powerful two-part conversation, host Tara Williams continues her discussion with Dr. Amy Johnson, author of The Little Book of Big Change, diving deeper into the thought patterns that quietly run the show in our businesses and our lives. Dr. Amy opens up about her own long-held belief that "no one cares and I have to do it all myself" — and how that kind of fierce independence, while it can fuel entrepreneurial success, can also keep you isolated and stuck. Together, Tara and Dr. Amy explore why curiosity is the antidote to self-judgment, how moving your body and saying things out loud can unlock emotions you didn't even know were weighing you down, and why the courage to look in the darker places is where real freedom, energy, and growth are waiting! What we discuss with Dr. Amy: + "No one cares, I'll do it alone" belief pattern + Fierce independence as an entrepreneurial trait + Curiosity as the antidote to self-judgment + Nothing is wasted — even our struggles + Saying things out loud releases their power + Moving your body moves stuck emotions + Don't fix your mindset before starting — just begin + Shedding what no longer serves you + Looking in the dark places is where freedom lives + High vibes alone aren't enough Thank you, Dr. Amy!

#880 What if the voice in your head that you've been trusting your entire life is actually the thing holding your business back? In this episode, host Tara Williams sits down with Dr. Amy Johnson — author of The Little Book of Big Change and host of the Changeable podcast — for part one of a two-part conversation that will completely shift the way you think about feeling stuck. Dr. Amy has helped thousands of people break free from anxiety, overthinking, and habits that feel impossible to change, and today she breaks down why the problem is never your strategy — it's the thought-created reality you've been living in without even knowing it. Together, Tara and Dr. Amy explore what's really happening beneath the surface when you can't seem to take action, why willpower is the wrong tool, and how learning to feel your way through discomfort (instead of avoiding it) is the key to unlocking real freedom in your business and your life! What we discuss with Dr. Amy: + Why willpower isn't the answer + Your thoughts aren't reality + The helicopter moment that changed everything + Fear of feeling keeps you stuck + Procrastination is a feeling, not a flaw + How habits hide what we won't face + The courage to look inward + Avoiding discomfort only grows it + Leaning into fear builds real strength + Feeling everything is the path to freedom Thank you, Dr. Amy!

Revelation 10:1-4 A loud angel and a little book...Support the show

Ever wondered why some spaces instantly relax you, while others energise or even irritate? The secret might lie in the colour! Karen Haller, is an expert in applied colour psychology, and reveals how understanding the emotional dance of colours can transform our built environments into havens of well-being and productivity. Whether you're an interior designer, architect, or simply a lover of nature-inspired spaces, this podcast dives deep into the unseen forces of colour. You'll learn how colour influences behaviour, how to select the perfect hues for different environments, and why true biophilic design demands more than green and brown, it's about the symphony of natural colours that heal and energise us. Colour Psychology seems to be a bit of a missing link in biophilic Design. Not a lot of people are talking about it but it is vitally important. We've all seen it—spaces drenched in beige, sterile white corridors, or overly vibrant hues that overpower instead of soothe. Spaces, especially healthcare environments, often neglect the impact colour can have on users of the space. Karen shatters the myth of “neutral” colours being emotionally neutral altogether. Every colour triggers a response, whether it is positive or negative, each is embedded in our personal memories, cultural beliefs, and innate responses. For example, red energises or stimulates physical reactions, but excess can overwhelm. Blue can be calming or stimulating, depending on its shade and context. Recognising this nuanced language of colours allows designers to craft environments that truly support human health and behaviour. Whether it's selecting hues for a hospital or designing a peaceful workspace, understanding the emotional implications of colour creates spaces that nurture rather than numb. 3 ways we relate to Colour – and how to use them! Karen's theory identifies three distinct ways we connect with colour:Personal Associations:Colours evoke memories and feelings unique to each individual. A bright yellow might remind someone of their childhood joy or a dull green might trigger childhood discomfort. These associations drive our preferences and aversions—so understanding clients' personal ties to colours is key.Cultural Meanings:Deep-rooted beliefs shape cultural responses—red for luck in China, white as a symbol of death elsewhere. Ignoring these can cause disconnect in design choices for diverse spaces.Colour Psychology:Each hue has a spectrum of responses aligned with nature's endless diversity.Recognising these layers allows designers to create intentionally harmonious spaces—be it a calming hospital room or an energetic collaborative zone. Nature's palette can guide authentic Biophilic DesignNature's colours can be perceived almost like a blueprint for emotional well-being. Karen emphasises the importance of sticking to true natural colours, no artificial greens or overly saturated hues. These colours, like the rust reds of autumn leaves or the soft lavender of seasonal blooms, carry intrinsic harmony and emotional resonance. When designing with nature in mind, identify the desired outcome, calm, energy, focus and select natural hues that support these goals. For a high-energy space like a bustling office, vibrant reds or energizing oranges may work. In contrast, serene blues and gentle greens foster calm in healthcare or relaxation zones. But please avoid the cliché of “green and brown”, these are just two colours among many. True biophilic design encompasses the entire spectrum of natural colours, creating an ecosystem of shades that balance, connect, and heal. Good biophilic design comes complete with a understanding of emotional language of colours. Genuine biophilic design is rooted in understanding this language, aligning space with human innate responses, and collaborating across disciplines. Whether it's a hospital, office, or school, the goal is harmony, balancing energy levels, fostering comfort, encouraging productivity. This is achieved by starting from the outcomes and working backwards, what behaviours must be supported? What emotions should be evoked? Then, select colours accordingly. Remember, every space is an ecosystem, and our role is to nurture human-nature connection through thoughtful colour choices, never just following trends but listening to what nature and our psychology say. When you understand the true language of colour, you wield a tool you can use to shape environments that heal, energise, and sustain us. Dive deeper with Karen Haller's courses or consult her for tailored strategies. Start viewing spaces as living ecosystems filled with the colours of nature, inspired by human psychology, and crafted for well-being. Because colour can also help restore our innate connection to the natural world.

What if everything you've been told about success is backwards? In this episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius Mirshahzadeh is joined by bestselling author Daniel Coyle to unpack the real drivers of performance, fulfillment, and human connection, along with insights from his new book “Flourish: The Art of Building Meaning, Joy, and Fulfillment”. Daniel shares his journey from aspiring baseball player in Alaska to becoming a leading voice on what truly powers high-performing individuals and teams. His work reveals a powerful truth: success doesn't create strong relationships. Strong relationships create success. Together, they explore the science and soul of community, why modern life often leaves us feeling disconnected, and how simple, intentional moments can help us reconnect and thrive. They also dive into practical ways to build stronger relationships in your daily life, both personally and professionally. This conversation will challenge the way you think about achievement and inspire you to prioritize connection in a deeper, more meaningful way. In this episode, Darius and Daniel will discuss: (00:00) Introduction and Background (02:46) The Journey to Writing and Performance (05:16) The Importance of Community (08:15) The Upside Down of Success and Relationships (11:10) Creating Connective Pauses (14:03) Rituals and Connection to Ancestors (17:03) Personal Practices for Connection (21:56) Reconnecting with Ancestral Wisdom (27:21) The Renaissance of Community Building (32:29) Creating Conditions for Flourishing (43:12) The Ideal Reader for 'Flourish' Daniel Coyle is a New York Times bestselling author known for “The Culture Code,” named Best Business Book of the Year by Bloomberg, BookPal, and Business Insider.

After a short hiatus, I'm back with a paired review of The World According to Coco and The Little Book of Chanel. Truthfully, neither book is extraordinary on its own. But together, they open a far bigger question: what does it cost to reinvent yourself so completely that the myth becomes more powerful than the person?In this review, I explore Coco Chanel's brutal beginnings, her obsession with uniqueness, the creation of Chanel No. 5 and the little black dress, the moral ambiguity of her wartime years, and the deeper tension beneath it all — greatness, ego, loneliness, and whether success is worth the price.Timestamps00:00 – Back After the Hiatus00:25 – The Two Chanel Books I Read01:05 – Why This Review Is About Perspective, Not Just Facts02:11 – Honest Verdict: Are These Books Actually Worth Reading?02:54 – Coco Chanel's Harsh Origins04:09 – She Didn't Just Build a Brand, She Built a Myth07:06 – Where the Name “Coco” Came From08:23 – Self-Creation, Status and the Modern Social Media Parallel10:30 – Chanel No. 5 and the Simplicity of Genius12:41 – The Little Black Dress and Designing for Movement13:57 – The Better Chanel Biographies to Read14:50 – Was Coco Chanel a Nazi?18:02 – The Quotes That Reveal Her Character23:19 – The Final Question: Was Greatness Worth the Solitude?25:16 – Closing ThoughtsConnect with Mere Mortals:Website: https://www.meremortalspodcast.com/Discord: https://discord.gg/jjfq9eGReUTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/meremortalspodsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/meremortalspodcasts/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@meremortalspodcast Connect with Mere Mortals:Website: https://www.meremortalspodcasts.com/Discord: https://discord.gg/Xs9DjsurFqTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/meremortalspodsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/meremortalspodcasts/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@meremortalspodcastsValue 4 Value Support:Website: https://www.meremortalspodcasts.com/supportPaypal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/meremortalspodcast

What actually makes a life feel meaningful? In this conversation, Daniel Coyle joins Michael Shermer to talk about why fulfillment rarely comes from optimization, status, or trying to "win" at everything. Instead, it grows out of connection, shared effort, curiosity, and the kinds of projects that pull people out of themselves and into real community. Coyle makes the case that flourishing is not a mood and not a hack. It's a process. It happens in groups, in relationships, and in the messy work of building something with other people. Daniel Coyle is the New York Times bestselling author of The Culture Code, which was named Best Business Book of the Year by Bloomberg, BookPal, and Business Insider. Coyle has served as an advisor to many high-performing organizations, including the Navy SEALs, Microsoft, Google, and the Cleveland Guardians. His other books include The Talent Code, The Secret Race, The Little Book of Talent, and Hardball: A Season in the Projects, which was made into a movie starring Keanu Reeves. His new book is Flourish: The Art of Building Meaning, Joy, and Fulfillment.

What Brand Has Made Daniel Smile Recently? Daniel Coyle recently found himself smiling at Martin Guitars. After acquiring his first one, he was struck by the brand's deep interweaving with the fabric of American music, noting how even the lyrics to the classic song “The Weight” were inspired by the brand's Nazareth, Pennsylvania, roots. For Coyle, the way people care for these instruments and their storied history makes being around the brand feel genuinely good. Resources & Links Connect with Daniel on LinkedIn.
