So, I decided that this month, I'd look at the issue of burnout. In Canada, like the rest of the world to varying degrees, we're facing a sea change with America no longer willing to play the role they've played since the end of World War II. With tariffs applied to our long-standing trade, and threats to annex us, Canadians feel this new threat to their core. And people simmer in the stress of it without any real awareness of the havoc this is playing in our nervous systems. In today's episode, I'm sharing a few thoughts, and some found music from Lisbon, Portugal. I hope it helps you find some calmness in your day.  And a word of gratitude for street musicians all over the world, but particularly those in Lisbon who have unknowingly contributed to this episode. You all Rock!! And you make the world a better place as you share your talents. Thank you.Please, share this episode around, and if you're of a mind, subscribe wherever you get your podcasts; and give us a review.

This gentle book explores the deep knowledge coming out of the Indigenous way of living on the land. Using stories coming from her Potawatomi ancestors, Dr. Kimmerer shares traditional ways of gardening and harvesting, as well as some of the origin stories of her people. She then weaves these together with knowledge from botany and Western Science, showing us that both traditions have legitimacy. She underlines practices of gratitude in how we live on the land, and reminds us that we live in reciprocal relationships with our world. I especially love the chapter on language and how it holds the world view of the speaker.Dr. Kimmerer lives in Syracuse, New York, where she is a SUNY Distinguished Teaching Professor of Environmental Biology, and the founder and director of the Center for Native Peoples and the Environment. I hope you enjoy this episode.

They discuss the evolution of Shapiro's career, the importance of publishing and selling books, and how to define value in speaking engagements. Shapiro shares insights on building innovation communities, the role of professional associations, and the concept of stability in an uncertain world as presented in his book 'Pivotal'. The conversation emphasizes the importance of meandering with purpose and connecting diverse experiences to foster creativity and innovation.TakeawaysThe journey to innovation often starts with a passion for change.Publishing a book can be a strategic move to enhance your speaking career.Selling is as important as writing when it comes to books.Value in speaking engagements is often defined by the impact made, not just the fee charged.Building a community of passionate individuals can drive innovation within organizations.Professional associations provide valuable networking opportunities for speakers.Stability in uncertain times can be achieved by focusing on what shouldn't change.Meandering with purpose allows for adaptability in personal and professional growth.Connecting diverse experiences can lead to innovative breakthroughs.Expertise can sometimes hinder true innovation; fresh perspectives are crucial.About Stephen ShapiroStephen started his innovation work over 25 years ago while launching and leading Accenture's 20,000-person innovation practice.Since then, he has written seven books on innovation, including Best Practices Are Stupid, which was named the best innovation and creativity book of 2011 by Porchlight and was an international #1 business best seller. His latest book, PIVOTAL: Creating Stability in an Uncertain World launched in June 2024. He is also the creator of Personality Poker®, a card game used worldwide to develop high-performing innovation teams. Stephen has presented at conferences in over 50 countries, and in 2015 was inducted into the Speaker Hall of Fame.He is also a Senior Fellow with The Conference Board.When he's not working with organizations helping them make the impossible possible, he enjoys dabbling in magic!Links:https://www.stephenshapiro.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/shapiroinnovatesSound Bites"You never know who's listening.""You need that core group.""Meander with purpose."Keywordsinnovation, reinvention, speaking career, book publishing, value definition, professional associations, stability, creativity, community building, personal growth

In this fourth week of the month, I'm offering you another book that I love. This week I bring you a rip roaring tale about the early years of the 21st Century, and how a driven journalist finally found his way into a more calm and balanced life through mindfulness meditation.This book plays two roles for me. First, it's just a good story about affairs as they unfolded in the US in the early days of the turn of the century. 9/11, the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, all told by someone who covered them on the ground. Secondly, Dan shares with us how he managed to shift from hard-driving journalist into a more balanced version of himself. His invitation into mindfulness meditation via his app helped me find my way into a more relaxed version of meditation that I follow to this day. He's a guy out there truly doing good in this world, and I appreciate him. And this book is great.If you're of a mind, share your thoughts with me about this, or any, book review at meanderingswithtrudy@gmail.com. If there is a book you recommend, let me know and I'll give it a look, no promises though. Episode Links:Chapman Coaching Inc.Dan Harris' Ted Talk about how he became less of a jerk to himself – I laughed, and cried, when I watched this one.The revised app is called “Happier”And his podcast is Ten% Happier with Dan HarrisPoem “'Twas the Night Before Christmas” just 'cause it's traditionThe book, reviewed on Good ReadsRoyalty free music is called Sunday Stroll – by Huma-Huma

We meander around beginning again, around little monsters that join us when we engage in a meditation or a “sit,” around what Advent offers to us as we prepare for the coming holidays… It's a nice complement to my solo meander from last week, and I hope you'll listen to these both in that understanding.December, at least in the northern hemisphere where we live, gets increasingly dark, the days, shorter, until the longest day of the year, Dec 21, and the Winter Solstice. In December, hope, peace, joy and love are centered week by week as Christmas approaches… which is an invitation for Christians and non alike to name what is in the dark, and turn towards something life giving… hope, peace, joy and love... and begin again. And yet, life includes a lot of fear these days… mostly of the unknown. So, in the face of this fear, naming that, pausing, and turning towards… hope peace, joy and love…. Forgiveness, and trust too. This and more we cover in this meander. I hope you enjoy this free-wheeling exploration. Please, share our work widely, give us a review or a drop us a few stars.

Today, we are exploring "Embers: One Ojibway's Meditations" by Richard Wagamese.Wagamese died in 2017, leaving behind 16 books. The bulk of his writing was fiction, telling stories about his people, informed by his experience. These are hard reads sometimes for they are full of heartbreak and challenge. His first book, "Keeper'n Me" tells the story of Garnet Raven, a story that parallels Wagamese's own life experience.  It's worth your time too.Two of his books are autobiographies, and several others explore Indigenous spirituality and wisdom. "Embers" is of that latter type, offering us hard-won wisdom about how to live a fulfilling life. I like to pick this book up and just open it up to see what is alive for me in that moment. I've never been let down. Also, it is beautifully laid out, a feast for your eyes!I've read from "Embers" countless times on this podcast, particularly on the PauseCast in conversation with Angie Arendt, so it seemed like the right place to start.Episode Links:Chapman Coaching Inc.Richard Wagamese biography"Embers: One Ojibway's Meditations"Royalty free music is called Sunday Stroll – by Huma-Huma

The sum spells disaster for the human race in the dystopian world of Meander, which evokes both ancient Greek mythology and near-future science fiction. Meander finds herself destitute in the Underworld with no way to finance escape other than offering her biological potential for surrogate pregnancy up to dubious experimentation in an underground facility. Meanwhile, filmmaker/narrator, Lexi Bass, recounts her experiences of pregnancy and motherhood at the precipice of age 40 and the loss of her own mother shortly after, questioning the future of humanity at the precipice of Artificial General Intelligence and Artificial Super-Intelligence. For more and to connect with us, visit https://www.artsconnectlex.org/art-throb-podcast.html

The genesis of this episode lies with an article I read as I was making my morning coffee about the cancellation of three Taylor Swift concerts in Vienna this summer. Threatened by a terrorist plot, authorities closed down the phenom, breaking the hearts of some 200,000 fans who'd hope to attend. On its own, this story is simply a sign of our times. The mayhem on our streets playing itself out in myriad ways from day to day, heaping sadness and disappointment on many… but hey, it's only a concert, right?As I try to find and showcase the good in life, this piece about how the fans responded to the cancellation gives me hope that ultimately, things will be ok. In the face of challenge, human beings are amazing, and these fans, no less:  finding meaning in their shared loved, sharing connection, exhibiting resilience through song, sharing rituals and yes, joy… the fans showed it all. All in the face of the cancellatoin of "just a concert."All this and more is what we meander around every week as we shine the spotlight on joy. I believe that joy, and hope, are antidotes to fear and sadness about the state of the world. I hope you don't mind this impromptu meander from my kitchen, as I made coffee, and tea, and shared my thoughts with you. And please, give the article a read let me know if it gives you a little more hope in this broken, but beautiful, world of ours.

In our final meander together with Dina, we explore the final chapter in “Grief Unleashed: Moving from the hole in our hearts to wholehearted.” This Postlude explores the work that Dina is confidently and humbling stepping into, the work of a Grief Doula, which she defines as companioning people in their grief journey. This is such big work, and such important work, as life is full of grief and loss, not just death but losses of all kinds. And learning how to manage grief as a normal, healthy and involuntary activity has been the focus of this book, and all in service of helping us experience joy in our lives.My take-aways from the book, very high level, are:Loss is simply what happens to us in life. It's part of living fully. It is natural. Meaning is what we make of it. We all move through grief, and recovery, at our own pace.STUGs – sudden temporary upsurges of grief – happen because grieving is not linear; we ebb and flow in our experience for the rest of our lives.Listening to someone in their grief is our superpower as humans.Grieving takes effort, awareness, self-compassion, time, and community. We all have a part to play.Grief is love.My final invitation to you is to consider these take-aways and see how they land for you now.

In chapter five of Dina's book, we're looking at the gifts that come out of embodying our grief, of healing the wounds in a healthy way. I found this chapter a wonderful way of pulling together all the threads of learning in this book. In fact, the invited homework from the previous chapter on continuing bonds helped me with this too. The notion of post traumatic growth is a centrepiece of this chapter, and it is a much-overlooked reality of our effectively growing through our grief from a loss. This idea spotlights all the ways in which we as people grow stronger, learn more about ourselves, develop resilience and insight by experiencing grief and big life losses. All this helps us as we become our future selves. Or as Dina puts it “… post traumatic growth… describes the positive psychological change that is experienced as a result of the struggle with highly challenging life occurrences.” The gifts of grief are many, sometimes simple, others profound. But always nurturing to us as we move forward into tomorrow.Invitations:Out of each episode this season, we are offering people ways to increase their grief literacy. This month, we're offering an invitation to you to explore one of the seven growth opportunities coming out of grief that Dina outlined for us from the literature.

In chapter four of Dina's book, we're looking at this idea of continuing bonds, of continuing our relationship with people who have died, by way of better owning, embodying, and coping with, our feelings of loss.  The thing about death is that we often can't accept the reality of our loss. Continuing bonds normalizes our desire to maintain a relationship with those who have died, and for this to be seen as a healthy way of coping. Continuing bonds can look like different things for different people – I like to invite my mom's spirit to come and meditate with me, for example. And for some, this idea of continuing bonds is not for them at all, and that's ok too.Another big part of this meander explores fear. It seems to us that understanding fear a bit better will help us cope through periods of grief, so Dina shares a bit about the five basic human fears, and how these manifest in us, in our lives.Invitations:Out of each episode this season, we are offering people ways to increase their grief literacy.

In this second episode in our book review, we look at chapter one, which is all about grappling with grief. The starting point is understanding that we all grapple in different ways. And that is absolutely as it should be. But most of us don't know how we grapple, and don't realize that others ways can be different. So that is where we start, and we meander from there. I hope you find this both helpful and informative.Invitations:Out of each episode this season, we are offering people ways to increase their grief literacy.

Then, sit with what you've explored and consider: what do you see? Any trends, or threads that you see? What does this tell you about your approach to loss and grieving... how do you grapple?

Send us a Text Message. Aloha from Dipperz and 1986! This week, Sarah and Lauren voyage back in time to a stand-out in TV show crossover history with Magnum, P.I. Season 7 Episode 8 "Novel Connection" (aired Nov.19, 1986) and Murder, She Wrote Season 3 Episode 8 "Magnum on Ice" (aired Nov. 23, 1986). Meander gently with the Dipz as they do their best to recount what is admittedly a pretty thin plot but two eps that are thick with the best of the 1980's! Featuring: What Would Jessica Wear?, guns were smaller then, Jonahthlbig Higgsbuggondle, ~mystery~, Pamela!?!????!?!?!, exploding car!, GYATTTT, snoopin', and Jessica Fucking Walter. Bonus: Keep track of how damp Magnum is along with the Dipperz!

Meander into random temples / focus and simplicity / move the internal mountains of attachment and petty grievances / everywhere we turn someone is trying to sell  us happiness / kindness saves a ton of mental baggage / simplicity saves us issues with stuff - kindness saves us from issues with people / when you become very focused on spiritual life, it affects everyone / we're off the leash looking for distractions / Vishnu is our real soulmate / game-changer: happiness is automatically obtained without endeavor, just as we obtain distress SB 7.6.1-5
