In this episode, we chat with Amelia Hruby about finding softer, more intentional ways to grow our art and businesses—without relying on social media. Amelia shares insights into her decision to quit social media, how it impacted her creative life, and how to build a business that doesn't depend on the digital grind. We explore the many creative projects she's launched, including Softer Sounds Studio, and discuss myths around marketing, the challenges of staying true to our values, and how to embrace unconventional paths in both art and business. If you're feeling disconnected or overwhelmed by social media, this episode is full of inspiration for creating from a grounded, off-the-grid place.About AmeliaAmelia Hruby is a feminist writer, podcaster and producer with a PhD in philosophy. She is the founder of Softer Sounds, a feminist podcast studio for entrepreneurs and creatives. And she's the host of Off the Grid, a podcast about leaving social media without losing all your clients.WebsiteOff The Grid PodcastSofter SoundsFree Leaving Social Media ToolkitAbout mePascale Côté is a creativity guide, artist, and writer who helps creatives meet, understand, and express themselves by guiding them to work *with* their (creative, complex, unconventional) nature instead of against it. She helps artists, visionaries, disruptors and earth stewards break free from the vortex of overthinking and move forward with their bold, rebellious ideas. Her work challenges conventional norms, inviting creatives to explore what's possible when they release outdated narratives and embrace their true, authentic expression. Pascale believes that art is a powerful vehicle for both individual and collective change when it's grounded in truth—created outside the rigid systems that stifle our creative spirit.About the podcastCreative minds are the architects of a new world, and their art holds the keys to reimagining our reality. The challenge is, creative minds often spend just as much time crafting self-limiting narratives as they do creating their art. Dear Creative Mind is a space for creative liberation—a pathway out of the cycle of overthinking, burnout, and stagnation. This podcast is for artists & creative entrepreneurs where Pascale, creativity guide, shares grounding meditations, gentle coaching guidance and heartfelt conversations with inspiring artists.

Our relationship to stories creates our understanding of time and what NOW means.So in this episode, grace begins by looking at stories in two ways — stories as lenses and stories as magnets — to help us become more flexible and creative in the face of pessimism and cynicism.Then she explores how softening our stories allows us to step into the currents of time and move at the pace of Life.NOW is the Seed for Next. Listen in and join us.Time is not fixed. Time is not set. The story is not already decided. The story is a writhing, alive, dancing, breathing snake. And so the more skillful we get with our energy, our spiritual practice, and our creative practice… the better we are able to dance and writhe with that snake. — grace allerdice we discuss —the stories we're telling about our Selves and our liveshow story follows state + state creates storywhy Now is the soil + the seed for what's Nextwhat to do when the Story is an obstaclethe importance of quiet + making space to listenwhy your pain is not your contributionhow to be supple + strong LINKSIf you enjoyed the episode, check out —from Judgement to Mystery

On the spiritual path to becoming our Selves we must release dogma and court Mystery.So many of us have been wounded by our experiences with religious institutions. We crave something bigger than certainty, but we're only offered shallow identity markers and multiple-choice metaphysical “answers.”For those of us who do leave church dogma, we often become steeped in political or scientific dogma. We turn to the superficial pleasures of judging others on social media, television and the internet.Judgment and ideology is alive and well everywhere. But what if we left them behind and stepped toward Mystery?Learn how to stop avoiding the Mysterious path and find the antidote to separation. “We can't really judge, because it's a Mystery.” — grace allerdice we discuss —Why we choose judgement + ideology instead of uncertaintyWhat we're really craving when we reach for GodHow to embrace the path toward Mystery“Everyone is God in drag.” — Ram DassWhy your body is not better or worse than your spiritHumble stewardship + discerning difference without judgement LINKSIf you enjoyed the episode, check out —the Magic of the Third ▽What Courage Has to Do with Heavena great Teacher of the Mystery… for those with ears to hearMentioned in the episode—Pete Holmes 2024 comedy specialthe language of “situated knowledge” comes from the work of Donna HarawayFree Resources —Learn the 3 main ingredients that formed the bedrock of every quantum transformation in my life. **Get 3 Keys for the Soul here for FREE.

Through exploring the relationship between ego death, spiritual maturity, and our connection to greater Forces, we uncover why many people remain stuck in patterns of pain and projection.

Today Aishath Huda joins us to share her lifelong connection with water and how it has shaped her creative process and perception as an artist. In this conversation about art, nature, and experience, we explore the fluidity of more-than-human consciousness and the impact that abstracting water has on humanity and climate literacy.“When we extract water, or reduce it to H2O, or categorize it as merely a utility and, ultimately, a commodity, we take the place out of water. And this influences how we perceive accountability and our sense of responsibility toward water and climate issues. I mean, climate issues are water issues. Water issues are climate issues.” — Aishath HudaAishath Huda is a Chicago-based visual artist from the Maldives. She makes work that investigates the relationship between bodies and the environment in both the local and the ecological sense.

I can make my choices, and I can make the best choices available to me in that moment, and astrology can give me a really good window to understand what those choices are, but that doesn't guarantee specific results.” — Amaya RourkeAmaya Rourke is an animist folk witch, astrologer, tarot reader, spirit worker, and folk herbalist. Her work guides others called to a wild witchcraft that straddles the seen and unseen worlds, traveling the moonlit and star studded crooked path of the bramble hedge. Rooted in historic folkways and updated for contemporary life, Amaya's praxis seeks to return to the interwoven cycles of the Moon, fixed stars, and living Earth. She has been a featured guest on many podcasts, a writer for limited edition grimoires, Moon planners, and astrology magazines; and is a seasoned workshop writer and facilitator.we discuss —Contextualizing ancient understandings of astrologyHow myth is informed by placeWater as a symbol of void and fluidityBalancing control with surrenderThe role of the moon as mediatorAstrological gardeningRelating to fixed starsLINKSIf you enjoyed the episode, check out —Sound Magic, Creative Listening + Connecting to Intuition w — Zaneta SykesResponsibility + Possibility for Mystical Crafts w— Diana Rose HarperMentioned in the episode—Learn more about the Water Medicine course + use the code LISTEN for a special discountSecrets of the Ancient SkiesMore about our guest —Amaya's website and InstagramFree Resources —Discover your wild water archetype + upgrade your self care with our free Water Medicine QuizStay Connected —Subscribe to the home—body podcast wherever you get your listens.grace's websitehome—body websiteThis podcast is produced by Softer Sounds. ✨Support the show

ABERTURA SEGUNDA-FEIRA, 20 DE NOVEMBRO DE 2023. EU SOU LEO LOPES  E ESTÁ NO AR O CASTNEWS, O PODCAST SEMANAL QUE EM MAIS OU MENOS 15 MINUTOS INFORMA VOCÊ SOBRE TUDO O QUE ACONTECE DE MAIS IMPORTANTE NO MERCADO DE PODCASTS NO BRASIL E NO MUNDO. Escalada Os números do relatório anual de tendências do Spotify, um artigo sobre as melhores estratégias para podcasts no YouTube, uma nova ferramenta que permite assinar podcasts direto no seu calendário e episódios de podcast que dão destaque à saúde do homem neste Novembro Azul estão entre as principais notícias que você vai ouvir nesta 42ª edição do Castnews! NOTÍCIAS 1 – Como hoje, 20 de novembro, é o dia da consciência negra, eu quero começar o episódio com uma recomendação especial.  A equipe do Castnews fez uma matéria com várias recomendações de podcasts incríveis feitos por ou para pessoas pretas. Tem podcast de vários gêneros, vários tipos de assunto, então com certeza algumas das indicações vão entrar na sua lista de preferidos. Entra no link que tá aqui na postagem pra ouvir as indicações, blz? Essa é a nossa forma de fazer uma homenagem, ainda que simples, a essa luta histórica que milhares de pessoas já lutaram, e celebrar a diversidade como tem que ser. 2 – Agora a gente vai falar sobre o novo relatório de tendências do Spotify, que saiu na última quarta-feira e que tem a ver com o título desse episódio. Segundo os resultados, o podcast segue sendo cada vez mais popular entre todas as faixas etárias – especialmente entre os ouvintes acima de 45 anos! Inclusive, foi registrado no mundo todo um aumento de 65% na faixa entre 55 e 64 anos. As categorias mais consumidas no Spotify nesse ano são as mesmas do ano passado: Sociedade e Cultura, Estilo de Vida, Saúde, Educação, Comédia e True Crime. Não dá pra dizer qual o grande preferido entre esses, porque como o relatório é global, a preferência dos ouvintes varia de acordo com a região. Além disso, sobre a publicidade na plataforma, a dica foi que os anunciantes planejem seus assuntos antes e depois de grandes eventos culturais, já que os podcasts geralmente prolongam a conversa sobre esses temas, como aconteceu esse ano com o lançamento do filme da Barbie, as finais da NBA e outros grandes eventos. O relatório completo está disponível pra consulta no portal do Castnews. 3 – O Buzzsprout lançou o Podroll, uma nova ferramenta em seu site que permite aos criadores de podcasts recomendar seus programas favoritos aos ouvintes. Inspirado nos blogs dos anos 2000 como MySpace e Last.FM, o Podroll permite que os podcasters compartilhem recomendações de forma orgânica, sem depender do pitaco de qualquer algoritmo. O recurso pode ser usado de várias formas, desde a promoção do próprio podcast, até criação de campanhas e o compartilhamento do que estão ouvindo no momento. Por mais que o Buzzsprout chame o Podroll de “ferramenta”, eu não sei você, mas eu achei com uma carinha de rede social. 4 – E por falar em redes sociais, você acredita que elas sejam essenciais pra divulgação de um podcast? Segundo a Amelia Ruby, fundadora do estúdio Softer Sounds, a resposta é não. Embora 72% dos americanos usem redes sociais todos os dias, o número de americanos que ouviu podcast em outubro foi 42%. O argumento é que o público que você vai encontrar nas redes sociais não está interessado em sair das redes sociais pra ir ouvir um podcast, então a taxa de conversão real é muito baixa pro tanto de energia que um produtor de podcast tem que investir pra alimentar as redes sociais. Além disso, a Amelia também ressaltou que a natureza das redes sociais é muito visual, o que não combina com a natureza do podcast, que é auditiva. No final das contas, o ponto chave é que o produtor tem a escolha de divulgar ou não seu podcast nas redes sociais, mas não vale a pena investir muito tempo e esforço nelas, já que o mesmo esforço poderia ser investido no conteúdo do podcast. AINDA EM NOTÍCIAS DA SEMANA: 5 – Um estudo recente da Audiotrack com a Colourtext revelou que a eficácia dos anúncios em áudio está diretamente ligada à quantidade de palavras usadas, tendo em base campanhas de rádio AM e FM que foram veiculadas entre 2020 e 2022. Segundo o relatório, menos é mais: quanto menos palavras forem usadas em um anúncio, mais eficaz ele vai ser com os ouvintes. A média reunida pela pesquisa foi de 169 palavras por minuto, mas a cada 10 palavras por minuto retiradas de um anúncio, a aceitação pelo público cresce em 1%. Então nada de encher linguiça; anúncio bem feito é anúncio direto, beleza? 6 – E atenção nesse alerta de golpe! Atencione pickpocket! Nos últimos meses, vários podcasters gringos relataram pro Podnews que foram vítimas de um esquema de roubo de contas. Todos eles foram contatados por esses golpistas, e foram convidados a participar como convidados de um podcast, que, supostamente, seria gravado em live no Facebook. Só que o objetivo real dessa pessoa que entra em contato com esses podcasters é outro: roubar as contas do Facebook dessas pessoas, e usar a identidade delas pra vender produtos. O esquema tem uma engenharia social muito bem planejada, e eles até oferecem uma grana alta pela participação desses podcasters nesse programa que não existe. Então, antes que vire moda e venha pro Brasil, a gente já avisa: não existe almoço grátis, desconfie de contatos suspeitos, e se você for convidado pra participar de um podcast que não conhece, faça uma boa pesquisa antes de aceitar. Procura o nome da pessoa que te contatou nos créditos da produção do programa, vê se o podcast existe de fato… Enfim, se proteja na internet, porque tá cheio de gente mal-intencionada por aí, inclusive no podcast. 7 – A empresa PodLP lançou o PodCal, uma ferramenta que permite aos ouvintes de podcast adicionar o lançamento de novos episódios de podcast, direto nos seus calendários. Disponível para macOS, iOS, Google Calendar e outros aplicativos de calendário, o PodCal precisa do número de identificação do podcast, que é inserido em uma URL fornecida pela empresa. Depois de registrar essa URL no seu calendário, os eventos de lançamento dos próximos episódios vão ser adicionados automaticamente na sua agenda. Legal, né? Quer saber como ativar o PodCal pra nunca mais perder um novo episódio do seu podcast favorito? Então acessa a matéria no portal do Castnews em castnews.com.br, que lá você encontra a instrução de como fazer isso. E MAIS: 8 – O especialista em áudio Matt Deegan discutiu em um artigo recente, diferentes estratégias para podcasts no YouTube e YouTube Music, explorando principalmente a diferença entre as duas plataformas. Ele apontou que conteúdos estáticos, como imagens e visualizadores simples, são melhores para o YouTube Music, mas se você quiser ser notado pelo algoritmo do YouTube raiz, criar vídeos (de verdade) é o melhor caminho.  É claro que a estratégia ideal depende muito do objetivo e da capacidade de gestão de cada projeto, mas é importante considerar todos esses aspectos que podem te ajudar a ter um podcast bem sucedido no YouTube. A matéria completa tem vários exemplos práticos, mostrando como cada caminho afeta a visualização e o envolvimento dos espectadores. Confere lá. 9 – E se você vai estar em Maceió agora no dia 25 de novembro, fica ligado: vai acontecer no auditório do Norcon Empresarial o primeiro encontro de podcasters de Alagoas. A entrada é mediante a doação de 1kg de alimento não-perecível, mas precisa fazer a inscrição online para participar do evento. O encontro é destinado a todos os apaixonados por áudio, produtores de podcast e também pra quem tem interesse no mundo da comunicação digital. Então se você quiser participar do evento pra trocar experiências, fazer um networking, aprender mais sobre a nossa mídia, não perde tempo não. Entra lá no portal do Castnews e já se inscreve pra esse encontro! HOJE NO GIRO SOBRE PESSOAS QUE FAZEM A MÍDIA:  10 – No Dia Mundial do Diabetes, 14 de novembro, as jornalistas Bia Libonati e Luciana Oncken lançaram o Meu Diabetes Podcast, pra pessoas que, assim como elas duas, vivem com a doença. A iniciativa surgiu da vontade que elas tinham de compartilhar experiências pessoais e dar apoio a outras pessoas diabéticas, através de relatos, acolhimento e aconselhamento. A temporada tem 6 episódios, cada um contando a história de vida de uma pessoa diferente que vive com a diabetes, e eles vão ser liberados toda semana no Spotify e no YouTube. 11 – E o podcast Projeto Querino foi o grande vencedor da categoria “áudio” na 45ª edição do Prêmio Jornalístico Vladimir Herzog, que celebra profissionais que defendem a Democracia, a Cidadania e os Direitos Humanos. O programa foi lançado pela Rádio Novelo em agosto de 2022, em colaboração com a Revista Piauí, e teve um grande sucesso de audiência.  Quem recebeu o troféu na premiação foi a Angélica Paulo, produtora e pesquisadora do podcast, com um discurso muito bonito sobre gratidão e ancestralidade. Nós já parabenizamos o Projeto Querino aqui no Castnews por ter batido a marca de um milhão e meio de downloads, e agora a gente dá os parabéns mais uma vez, por mais essa conquista. SOBRE LANÇAMENTOS: 12 – Na última semana foi ao ar mais uma temporada do podcast Ambiente de Música, do Choque de Cultura. Essa terceira temporada tem 13 episódios no total, e o lançamento vai ser às quintas-feiras. A série é conduzida pelos personagens Maurílio, Julinho e Renan, interpretados pelo Raul Chequer, o Leandro Ramos e o Daniel Furlan, um elenco hilário que fala sobre a música de um jeito que você nunca ouviu antes. A produção ficou por conta do Canal Brasil com a Globoplay, mas o podcast está disponível também em todas as principais plataformas de áudio. 13 – E também na semana passada foi lançado o podcast O Mundo Que Sei, que tem o objetivo de dar voz à perspectiva das crianças. O podcast faz parte de um projeto multimídia bem maior, que tem uma série onde 23 crianças paulistas compartilham conversas e experiências, dentro da vivência de cada uma delas. Já o podcast tem uma proposta diferente: a voz das crianças entra como ponto de partida para uma conversa entre adultos. O papo é mediado pela jornalista Giuliana Bergamo, e os episódios vão ficar disponíveis na íntegra no Spotify. RECOMENDAÇÃO NACIONAL:  14 – E na recomendação nacional da semana a gente vai indicar não um, não dois, mas CINCO episódios de podcast! É, a gente gostou da experiência, e de vez em quando vamos fazer isso aqui. Estes cinco episódios falam sobre o Novembro Azul, o mês que incentiva a prevenção e o diagnóstico precoce do câncer de próstata. Os episódios incluem discussões sobre a saúde masculina, a campanha do Novembro Azul, e muita informação. Então já pega sua caneta e anota aí os podcasts: O primeiro é o episódio “Novembro Azul: Cuidando da saúde masculina” do Cancercast; O episódio “Paulo Laste – Novembro Azul” do podcast É Pro Teu Bem; O “Saúde em foco: Saúde masculina e novembro azul” do podcast Conexão JT; O episódio do podcast Homem Sem Tabu: “Novembro Azul e a saúde do homem com Alessandro Rossol e Dr. Fernando Theodoro”; E também o episódio sobre “a campanha Novembro Azul e a saúde do homem” do StandardsCast.

In this episode, Perdita Finn shares her knowledge of empowering individuals to activate their own magic with the help of their ancestors.Together, we talk about connecting with the dead, the battle against matriarchal wisdom, and reclaiming both the power of the rosary and the significance of our relationship with the unknown."Don't think of a soul as an object, as a pearl. Think of a soul as a long, long red thread creating the very fabric of existence woven together with other threads.” — Perdita FinnPerdita Finn is the co-founder, with her husband Clark Strand, of the non-denominational international fellowship The Way of the Rose, which inspired their book The Way of the Rose: The Radical Path of the Divine Feminine Hidden in the Rosary. In addition to extensive study with Zen masters, priests,  and healers, she apprenticed with the psychic Susan Saxman, with whom she wrote The Reluctant Psychic. Finn now teaches popular workshops on Getting to Know the Dead, in which participants are empowered to activate the magic in their own lives with the help of their ancestors.

In this episode, we explore Mercury's influence in water signs with the astrologer, writer and ritual strategist Erin Tack Shipley.Erin begins the discussion with the origin story of Mercury, the mischievous son of Maya and Zeus, who sneaks out of his cradle on the day of his birth and steals his brother's oxen. Then we reflect on the complexity of morality and explore the adaptability and fluidity of Mercury. And we close by examining Mercury's character in each of the water signs, Cancer, Scorpio & Pisces.“I think Mercury gets a bad rap because there's so much focus on Mercury's conniving nature. And we never stopped to think about why Mercury's conniving.

In this episode, Gabriela Gutierrez takes us on a captivating journey through the world of imagery, religious symbolism, and the goddess in ancient Europe.From the first religious scriptures etched on Paleolithic cave walls to the transformation of icons into idols, Gabriela unpacks the layers of meaning behind these ancient artifacts while challenging us to view ancient cultures through their own lens, free from the limitations of a colonial perspective.“What does it mean to live a life in devotional, intimate, direct relationship with it, not through somebody else's interpretation?” — Gabriela GutierrezGabriela is a writer, scholar and teacher of the mythic imagination, mysticism and ancient history. Her work stems from her decade-long studies with shamans and renunciants around the world, and is focused on the revival of the spiritual traditions in pre-patriarchal Europe.

Sean invests in care, awareness, sensation, and love, all of which he practices through the lens of queer stamina, movement, and evolution.Hez Stalcup is an experimental dance artist. He works with bodies, words, sound and objects. He makes dances. He is usually in them. He makes other things that maybe get seen. Most people think his work is about being queer or about gender, its only sometimes about either. Often he is dancing about time, failure and personhood with people he thinks are smart and funny and should be looked at. He doesn't make beautiful dances per se, rather he thinks about what makes something outlandish and solitary enough that you want to love it forever.LINKSIf you enjoyed the episode, check out —Meditation on the Fool w— Hez StalcupEpisode w— Alkistis Dimech on The Occulted Body + Dancing with DaimonsEpisode w— Laura ZuspanMore about our guests —Sean's websiteSean's InstagramFly On A Wall websiteemail Hez at hezstalcup@gmail.comStay Connected —Subscribe to the home—body podcast wherever you get your listens.mary grace's websitehome—body websiteThis podcast is produced by Softer Sounds. ✨Support the show
