 The episode discussed on today's Sound Judgment is Near Death: Death Party. Near Death is a Dying For Media production with sales and distribution by Lemonada Media.Nikki Boyer's takeawaysThese are the takeaways from the end of the episode. For more takeaways from all of our guests, subscribe to the Sound Judgment newsletter and visit our blog.  Nikki loves having uncomfortable conversations. She'll ask almost anything, and she'll share herself in order to create a welcoming, inviting environment. The result: healing conversations about the things that matter most. It takes a lot of character to admit to the obstacles that stand in our way of doing our best, most honest work. For Nikki, the obstacle was her mindset: Before podcasting, she was an actress, a voice-over artist, and a TV personality. And, she says, she  was always seeking attention. Creating Dying for Sex changed all that. Now, she says, “I have this person's story to tell and I can't wait to share it with you.” She's no longer chasing the spotlight, but giving a gift. One thing Nikki has learned from doing podcasts about death? A lot of people wait to give themselves permission to do the thing they really want to be doing. And in the end, they regret having put it off. If there's a project you've been putting off, don't wait any longer. Give yourself permission and jump in.Near Death: CreditsNikki Boyer: Dying for Media CEO and cofounder and host, Near DeathKevin Sabbe: Dying For Media cofounder and executive producer, Near DeathReverend Peggy: cohost and executive producerKatie Amanda Keane: producer/writerTommy Fields: head of audioNikki BoyerNikki Boyer is the founder and CEO of Dying For Media and a three-time Emmy® award-winning TV host, producer, actress and podcaster.

Nikki cohosts the popular weekly podcast, “Straight Talk with Ross Mathews,” which recently recorded its 400th episode. Nikki cohosted the 2021 Ambie Awards show and was a regular guest contributor to The Wendy Williams Show for over eight seasons. She has appeared on virtually every major television talk show, most recently as a guest on The Drew Barrymore Show, supporting the launch of “Call Me Curious.” Along with Kevin Sabbe, she co-created and was co-executive producer of Step Girlfriends, a television concept based on her real life, optioned by CBS Studios. Nikki made her mark hosting Yahoo!'s ultra-popular Daytime in No Time, where she was the most watched host on the internet during the series' five-year run. Follow Nikki Boyer: www.dyingformedia.comwww.nikkiboyer.comInstagram: @nikkiboyer LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nikki-boyer-6873b847/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/itsnikkiboyer If you liked this episode, you'll love: Sound Judgment Season 2/Episode 10: How to Tell the Truth: The Art of Memoir with Dana BlackSound Judgment Season 2/Episode 2: Standing Ovation Host Jay Baer: How to Craft a Million-Dollar StorySound Judgment Season 1/Episode 8: How Top Hosts Hook Listeners in 60 Seconds or Less We need your support!

Theology: the study of the nature of God and religious belief.Hope & Heresy is a show all about theology, and our entire last season focused on visions of the Divine (check it out!), so why do we need to define the term? Excellent question. On this episode, Reverend Sarah and Reverend Peggy argue that defining theology in a liberal-religious context is a necessary ingredient to gaining greater understanding of your own beliefs. Discussing theology is deeply personal -- perhaps even more personal than discussing sex! -- and being prepared with language and vocabulary can facilitate deeper and more meaningful conversations.Thoughts on this season's guide to theological terms?

It's the final installment in our season-long exploration of aspects of the divine! Throughout this season, Reverend Sarah and Reverend Peggy have deeply contemplated and discussed the possibilities of the divine and humans' relationship to it.  Today we discuss our motivation for embarking on this season-long project and the lessons we've taken away as these conversations have become part of our own spiritual practice. Over and over, we've returned to the idea that our conception of the divine affects how we relate to others and to our environment. A vision of the divine that includes messiness, imperfection, and continuous formation allows us to imagine grace for ourselves and others. The divine is discovered through human connection. We invite you to connect with us by emailing us at podcast@ccny.org to share thoughts on this season or ideas for what you'd like to hear in our next season, scheduled to begin this fall.

Throughout our season-long exploration of the divine and its many expressions, Reverend Sarah and Reverend Peggy have often returned to the idea that our vision of the divine substantially affects how we move in the world. On today's episode, the conversation picks up the theme of "process theology" from last week's show and moves into a discussion of humans and the divine as co-creators. From making art to planting gardens to cooking meals for family and friends, humans are constantly creating (and destroying) our own world. What lessons about the divine does this insight hold?To open this episode, Reverend Sarah references the poem "The Shield of Achilles" by W.H. Auden. You can read the poem in full here: https://poets.org/poem/shield-achilles. This episode also discusses the art and spiritual practice of mandala-making.
