Today, Michael speaks with Anita Moorjani. Anita is a renowned author and spiritual speaker known for her transformative journey beyond the brink of death. While living in Hong Kong, Anita battled end-stage cancer before experiencing a remarkable near-death experience, or NDE, that shifted her perspective on life. Her bestselling memoir, "Dying to Be Me," chronicles her profound journey and miraculous healing. Anita travels the world sharing her insights on self-love, consciousness, and the interconnectedness of all things. Her teachings empower others to embody the highest version of themselves and live vibrant, authentic lives. Anita's new book, “Sensitive is the New Strong,” is out now. Conversation highlights include:  -Anita's near-death experience: the freedom from pain, the absence of fear, and the deep clarity that revealed how her life choices shaped her illness -Her turbulent relationship with her father and the weight of cultural traditions that led to a life-changing act of defiance that shaped her path and healing -Reuniting with her father on the other side in unconditional love, seeing glimpses of her future mission, and facing the decision to return to physical life -Waking up from her coma, against all odds, accurately recalling conversations she “shouldn't” have heard, and beginning her stunning physical recovery -How a simple online post about her NDE caught the attention of Dr. Jeffrey Long—and then Wayne Dyer—setting Anita's public mission into motion -How illness often begins at the soul level, why fear fuels disease, and how choosing joy, love, and purpose can reverse one's life trajectory -Shifting from “remission” to “remember my mission,” Anita reframes healing and explains why letting go—rather than holding onto resentment—sets you free -Why true transformation comes from communion with the soul, not just treating symptoms, and how this deeper work sustains physical and spiritual wellness Finally, Michael leads a guided meditation to open the heart and mind to the ever-present blessings of the Universe.

Episode 354 of RevolutionZ continues the sequence presenting the Oral History titled The Wind Cries Freedom. In this third installment, as an opening act, interviewee Leslie Zinn reflects on the finished oral history of a revolution that emerged from conditions similar to our own. She argues that revolution isn't utopian but tangible—a possibility within reach if we're willing to learn from each other's experiences and unite around shared values and aims.Then, conveyed from the book itself, Bill Hampton, takes us to a church in San Antonio where a congregation's nonviolent stand against violent deportations became, in their time and their world, a turning point in the immigrant rights movement. Hampton's account reveals how compassion and incredible determination transformed violent repression into tentative solidarity, even converting a Trump-supporting sheriff into a future ally. Could that happen in our world? Listen, see it in your mind, and decide for yourself.The heart of the episode explores how scattered resistance movements began weaving themselves together into something more powerful. Instead of working in separate silos—climate activists here, labor organizers there, anti-racism advocates somewhere else—people started supporting each other's struggles. They protested what they opposed but also demanded, fought for, and built alternatives they wanted to see: sanctuaries instead of deportations, new housing instead of military spending, sincere dialogue instead of reflexive division.Guevara's questions and the interviewees' answers don't offer a blueprint but a provocation. They show one successful path. Can our movements connect more deeply, as their's did? Can we recognize that our diverse struggles are fundamentally linked as they did? Can we commit to supporting each other across differences? Will our path to such gains be similar to theirs? If not, how will it differ?The Wind Cries Freedom challenges us to imagine resistance evolving into revolution—not through violence or top-down control, but through solidarity and shared vision and strategy. It asks us to consider whether such transformation might be possible in our own world, emerging from our own movements and struggles. It asks what does our activism need to embody to build the world we need? It hopes that by documenting the approaches of its related future revolution, in the words of its participants, it may offer useful insights while making real the prospects of winning.Support the show

Steve Griggs has been building more than gardens for nearly 40 years — he builds stories, sanctuaries, and spaces that speak. In this episode, he pulls back the curtain on what truly separates pretty landscaping from living landscapes: engineering, plant science, personal memories, privacy, and yes — even the grit behind the beauty.

Farmed animal sanctuaries are the heart of the animal advocacy movement. Our guest today, Zoe Novic, Executive Director of CAPE (Center for Animal Protection and Education), knows this well as she grew up on a sanctuary in the Santa Cruz hills. Zoe has a diverse background that includes two years in the Peace Corps in Indonesia, a Master's in Public Health, and leadership roles at The Humane League, Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, and Greener by Default, Zoe has expertise in grassroots organizing, public health policy, and advocacy.On the podcast, Zoe discusses the significance of the human-animal connection in comprehending and understanding nonhuman animals. She talks about how sanctuaries serve as acts of resistance, providing physical spaces where we can shape the world as we envision it. She and Hope also discuss how sanctuary and rescue efforts have been devalued in recent years, with current animal advocacy funding and philanthropy philosophies moving away from funding direct animal care and how that is impacting the movement. Zoe emphasizes the importance of emotion in advocacy, highlighting how it can often prompt action more effectively than logic or reason. She further explains how sanctuaries deeply evoke emotions. Additionally, Zoe shares her public health background, underscoring the intricate connections between this sector and animal agriculture.Resources:CAPE: Center for Animal Protection and EducationSonoma County VegFest, September 27, 2025Film: Called to RescueSupport this podcast:Hope for the Animals PodcastCompassionate Living

Dad, who do you say you are? We live in a world that hands out labels like candy—your job, your personality type, your hobbies, your past. Some of those things matter, but not all of them belong in your identity bucket. In this episode, the second of a three part series on (you guessed it) IDENTITY, Kent and Lawson unpack the “I Am” statements of Jesus, explore what's true only of Him, what's true only of us, and what's true of us both.   From roles and skills to preferences and past experiences, we'll wrestle with what shapes us—and what we shouldn't let define us. Bottom line? Your identifiers don't define your identity; God does. You'll leave this episode with a clearer picture of your God-given identity, as well as some practical tools to help your kids sort through theirs.   -------------------------------------------------------------------------   Range Leather: Support the show and upgrade your fatherhood swag. Shop Range Leather and get 15% OFF with code MJ15 Grab some fresh beans! https://rangecoffee.com/   Fatherhood Guard – Connect with dads from over 20 states and at least 2 countries by joining the Fatherhood Guard.

After a twenty-year career as a business leader, he embarked on biblical Fatherhood ministry projects. He's appeared on television, radio, web outlets and podcasts. He's spoken at parenting and men's events, and authored four books. The first, Wise Guys: Unlocking Hidden Wisdom from the Men Around You, was written to help men learn how to find mentors and wise counsel. The latest, Don't Bench Yourself: How to Stay in the Game Even When You Want to Quit, aims to help dads stay present in their roles as fathers and husbands even when they feel like giving up. Kent's life has been radically affected by godly mentors and his lovely wife, April. They have been married thirty years and have five sons and one daughter-in-law. He lives in Louisville, Kentucky. Lawson Brown is husband to his high school sweetheart, a father of two young adult daughters, has been a business leader since 1995, and is a former Marine. He served as a small group leader for teenage boys for many years, helped start the Christian media ministry City on a Hill Productions, then later Sanctuary – a new church in Kennesaw, GA – where he served as its leader for Men's Ministry. Lawson's journey of faith has always been centered in a grounding from his wife, Audrey, and supported throughout by many men whom he's found as brothers along the way. His family is nearing an empty nest phase and has recently relocated to the Florida Gulf Coast beaches area.

In this powerful follow-up episode, host Donald E. Coleman steps back to reflect on the recent 12-part teaching series centered on Hebrews 10:19-25 and the invitation into God's open sanctuary. As we enter the final stretch of the year, Donald invites listeners into a sacred pause—a moment to consider what the Holy Spirit has been revealing through this journey and how we might respond to the call for deeper intimacy, wholeness, and transformation.This episode is more than a recap—it is a prophetic reflection on the journey of agape, the open door of divine presence, and the saboteurs that still attempt to distract us from becoming fully rooted in Christ.You'll hear Donald:Revisit key themes from the series, such as confidence to enter God's presence, holding fast to hope, mutual encouragement, and sacred gatheringIlluminate how God's Agape both protects and transforms, pursuing the soul even in its resistanceExplain how saboteurs of the soul—like the judge, hyper-achiever, and pleaser—fragment our identity and block awareness of divine presenceChallenge listeners to adopt an “open-door policy” with God, allowing His love into every area of life for full integrationReaffirm that wholeness is not self-improvement, but spiritual surrender to God's transformative love within and among usEncourage listeners to see each episode as more than content—it's a gathering of grace, where God meets us wherever we areWith Revelation 3:20 as a guiding light, Donald reminds us that Christ is still knocking, still calling, and still ready to fill every room of our soul with peace, presence, and purpose."Have Questions, Send us a Message" This podcast is a production of The Center for Biblical Coaching and Leadership.

Reposted from Still Slaying: A Buffy-verse podcast which you can find at https://podcastica.com/podcast/still-slaying-a-buffy-verse-podcast “What am I? I'm an unemployed librarian with a tendency to get knocked on the head.” Penny, Kara, and Dodie revel in the silliness of this mid-season romp: a rare episode focusing on Giles. The trio talk about the cruelty of Maggie Walsh, Giles's mid-life crisis, men feeling intimidated by powerful women, shiny shirts, measuring tapes, hiking metaphors, the male gaze, daddy issues and daddy issues tropes and pop psychology, “nice guys,” Barbie and Ken, Taylor and Travis, how “Travis Swift” would be the best name, villain monologues, demons in space, the Fourth Amendment, and patriarchy as usual.    Next time we'll be talking about Buffy, Season 4, Episode 13, “The I in Team.” Let us know your thoughts!  And in a few weeks, we'll be covering “K-Pop Demon Hunters!” We'd love to hear from you on that, and we'd love to hear from your kids!  Keep Slaying!

In the middle of Somalia's civil war, when the world was falling apart, Dr. Hawa Abdi started building. On her family's land outside Mogadishu, she created a hospital, a school, a legal aid clinic, and eventually a sanctuary for tens of thousands of people fleeing violence and famine. Armed militias tried to take it. She told them to get off her front lawn. And they did. This is the story of a doctor who held the line when no one else could, and turned one patch of earth into a beacon of hope for an entire nation.

In this week's show Lian is joined by Paula Robinson. As an intuitive interior designer, Paula understands the profound effect that the spaces where we live and work have on our health, happiness and success in life. Often called the ‘space whisperer', she helps people to create living and working environments that transform their lives on all levels. Paula has been an interiors columnist for The Sunday Times, the Sunday Telegraph and Move Or Improve? magazine, and is the author of "The Healing Home & Garden: Reimagining Spaces for Optimal Wellbeing" and "The Room Planner: Over 100 Practical Plans For Your Home". Paula is happiest in nature - especially by the sea - and loves designing outdoor spaces. She is passionate about the environment, sustainable design, re-purposing furniture and objects, and supporting craftspeople over mass-producers. In this episode, Lian and Paula explore how our homes shape our bodies, minds, and mythic lives… the primal ways space soothes or unsettles us, and the quiet work of making a dwelling that heals. Together, they trace the path from head to heart, from trend to truth, and from copybook rules to the felt sense of sanctuary. Together, they journey through refuge and prospect, the simple power of moving a chair, and why bedrooms and workspaces ask for special care. Paula shares how intuitive design emerges, how objects carry the craft and energy of their makers, and how plants, animals, light, and air restore a room's vitality. At the centre of this conversation is a gentle invitation… listen to what your home is already telling you, let your instincts set the first mark, then let practicality refine it. Beauty follows when a space begins to mirror the soul that lives there. 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 learn from this episode: Start with feeling, then refine with form: notice how each room lands in your body, create refuge and prospect by seeing both door and view, then let measurements and plans serve what already feels right. Small changes shift everything: rearrange to interrupt stale traffic patterns, personalise even temporary spaces, and enliven rooms with plants, natural light, fresh air, mirrors, and the quiet presence of animals. Design as living story: choose objects that speak to you, honour their makers and materials, and when a house feels unsettled, consider energetic space clearing so the home and its history can move with you rather than against you.

They control the narrative in order to control you. What happens when you stop feeding the fear machine?In this raw, no-BS conversation, returning guest Ole Dammegård shares the biggest lessons from 40+ years down the “rabbit hole,” why he's stepped back from the noise, and how he now chooses to live: less screen, more heart, more nature, more courage. We get into fear programming, AI deepfakes, media choreography, saying NO without hate, and his new “light-minded” sanctuary project in Bali.If you're tired of panic headlines and ready to reclaim your attention, this one's for you.What you'll hear, from Ole's perspective:How fear is manufactured, and why he stopped trusting anything that arrives through a “smart” screenAuthority & algorithm “mind control” 101 (simple tools used daily, not sci-fi)From outrage to inner balance: living from heart, not headlinesCourage over compliance: the school-yard bully rule for geopoliticsWhy he's building Selalu (a sanctuary of light-minded friends) in Bali, and what “community without committees” looks like

Send us a textWhen God's special tent was finished, He chose helpers to care for it. Moses called the people together and showed that Aaron would be the high priest, with special clothes that jingled with tiny bells and a shining breastplate with twelve jewels. The Levites would pack, carry, and set up the tent wherever God led. Aaron's sons lit sweet incense from God's holy fire, reminding everyone of His promise to send Jesus to save us. But two sons disobeyed and used their own fire, teaching the people the wrong lesson about God's holiness. God wants loving obedience because His work is special, and He keeps His promise to rescue us through Jesus. Talk about it:Why did God choose special workers for His tent?What do the bells and jewels help you remember about God?Why did the incense have to come from God's holy fire?What is one way you can show respect for God this week?Visit our website: kathyskidsstorytime.orgWe'd love to hear from you.To reach us quickly, click the “Send us a text” link at the top of the episode description.Or write to us by mail:Kathy's Kids StorytimePO Box 44270Charlotte, NC 28215-0043

Welcome back to The Round Table! This week, our hosts Kassandra and Preena are joined by Shennell McCloud, a visionary leader redefining civic engagement. Together, they dive into a conversation that bridges two worlds we rarely talk about together: wellness and infrastructure and how their intersection is essential to building lasting justice. Too often, civic leadership is measured by rallies, votes, and policy wins. But what about the systems that support the people doing the work?What if true, sustainable change means protecting not just rights, but rest? Not just momentum, but mental health? In this episode, we explore why burnout and overwork are not sustainable models for engagement and how movements can thrive when wellness is treated as a core part of organizing.We also examine how neglecting mental health and community care weakens civic infrastructure. From physical spaces to digital platforms like The Sanctuary, we spotlight ways to intentionally build systems of care that fuel resilience and action.Shennell's work offers powerful insight into what it means to build structures that support both freedom and function, especially in communities that have been over extracted and under-resourced for generations. Together, this conversation reminds us that justice work isn't just about fighting back, it's also about building up, and that starts with caring for ourselves and each other.Thanks For Listening!
