Why do you love SupermanMy Adventures With Superman teaserMy experience with seeing Superman 1&2 back to backNotes from the films - Glen Ford plays it as not only is he having a heart attack but he realizes he's dying. The "oh no" is saying "not now. I thought I had more time. "How long after Pa dies does Clark hear the crystal calling to him? I would've liked at least one more scene with Pa. What is ma telling Clark to remember?Clark asks the one question you might ask God - Who Am I? What is my purpose? Why am I here?I never noticed jimmy said " I told you one P"There's something about 70s NY on film that makes Metropolis feel so important and huge The double Jeopardy scene is the best first appearance period, the end.

To ask for help.” - ClarkTwins, Sarah, Nat, John Henry“Rusty”“You look like a guy who made a wish to be a kid again”Is Clark trying to control Jordan because he can't control Lois' Cancer?Lana/Kyle/SarahIs this Sohpie's first sighting this season?! Where has she been? Juvie?OMG so awkward with Chrissy and LanaI like that Chrissy and Kyle are continuing. They're cute.Sarah, “you're chipper, it's weird.”No one is paying attention to Sophie. Maybe if she was in more episodes, they'd notice her. They freaking lost her. What the hell?Boy, between the slapping and the negligence, these two are really parents of the yearSad, sad Sophie at the abandoned fair. That is bleak. Sophie's character arc is going away, then when they need a story for the Cushings, they bring her back. Haha, nice reference to Burger Time. Kyle and Chrissy going steady, cute.

“Society is losing something when we don’t share our weirdness with one another. You're losing something when you have someone at your table and they don't share what makes them different. One of the purposes I have in life is to create spaces where people will share what is interesting about them, and why they are different.” - Sophie Mona PagèsAs a Moroccan immigrant growing up in France, Sophie Mona Pagès grew up feeling a bit “weird” in her complex identity. She craved a space infused with diversity, inclusion, intimacy, modernity, and beauty. Instead of waiting for such a space to appear, she created LVRSNFRNDS herself. The 20 attendees at the first event in East London were people Sophia found on dating apps who she “would be happy to spend an evening with.” She asked them to fill out a form if they wanted to attend, spend 15 minutes with her on a call, and gathered fun facts about each attendee to spark conversations. The group was diverse across identities and ages, and meaningful relationships were sparked. The night was a success. Today LVRSNFRNDS gathers people around the world, to fight loneliness and enable meaningful connections of all kinds. Hand-selected members have access to events where they’re asked to contribute their voice to conversations on intimacy and relationships.In March 2020, the community traded bars for virtual rooms. We’ll talk with Sohpie about developing a playbook that captures shared values, facilitating online conversations, and why this work matters to her.Highlights, inspiration, & key learnings:Origin story. Finding the first 20 people.Can’t fake the funk. “I grew up feeling weird.”Going virtual. People showing up and supercharging the why--support.Facilitating online. Empowering members to step up as hosts.Building playbooks with members. Acknowledging that people mess up and creating a response for when that happens.
Let Cancer Transform Your Life~ In this interview, Sophie Sabbage shares how cancer is transforming her life. Sophie’s terminal cancer diagnosis was a lifeshock and it also awakened her to her most authentic, loving, and creative self. Sophie is living with terminal lung cancer despite being given a few months to live over five and a half years ago. Upon hearing her diagnosis, Sophie vowed not to be a victim and took charge of her treatment. Furthermore, Sophie shares how she found the unlikely gifts of cancer and how the illness is transforming her life. In addition, we talk about lifeshocks, those unwanted and unexpected moments in our lives, and how they can awaken us to our most authentic, loving, and creative selves. Sophie is the author of two Sunday Times bestsellers: The Cancer Whisperer, translated into twelve languages, and Lifeshocks, 2018 winner of the international Nautilus Gold Award for personal growth books. As a transformation specialist, Sophie equips people to engage powerfully with challenging lifeshocks. Also, she has nearly thirty years experience as both a business consultant and as a Senior Trainer with the More To Life Foundation. In addition, Sophie is a professional speaker. In this episode, Sophie talks about the impact of fear on wellbeing and even on medical outcomes. Her experience of living with cancer, adversity, uncertainty, and facing death is very relevant and useful to the current coronavirus situation. Finally, Sophie says “I have cancer, it does not have me.” Episode Highlights: First, Emily introduces her guest, Sophie Sabbage. Then, Sophie shares how she learned about her cancer. She tells us she pushed her doctors for scans. After that, Sophie talks about her daughter who recently turned 10. Sophie explains lifeshocks, those unwanted moments in time. She tells us that she is fortunate to have a toolkit for dealing with lifeshocks. Next, Sophie shares that she was dying of fear. In other words, when the doctor told her she was going to die, she started dying. Furthermore, Sophie says she needed to get through fear to have a chance to stay alive. Sohpie discusses the symptoms she experienced before her cancer diagnosis. She listened to her intuition and pressed the doctor for scans that saved her life. Sophie shares that she wrote her book, The Cancer Whisperer, to help patients navigate the psychological and emotional territory of a cancer diagnosis. No one offered Sophie emotional support and she describes what it was like to sit in oncology ward waiting for her cancer treatment. She then describes the moment that led her to write the book. Sophie explains, “If we don’t take hold of our fear as patients, our fear will take care of us and make the decisions and run the show.” She stresses the importance of not handing all of the power to the doctor. Then Sophie explains her darkest hour, when she learned she had multiple brain tumors. After that, she talks about the ways in which she educated herself and took charge of her treatment. Sophie says the primary reason she’s still alive is the medical treatments she received. After that, Sophie talks about how she took control of her appointments, even delaying a treatment so she could see her daughter’s nativity play. In other words, she says, “If I fit my life into cancer, I’m going to die soon in spirit if not in body. But if I fit cancer inside my life, I’m more likely to have a life.” Next, Sophie shares how the late Dr. K. Bradford Brown taught her to find unlikely gifts in unwanted happenings. After that, she explains why she wrote her second book: Lifeshocks And How to Love Them. Dr. K. Bradford Brown taught Sophie his mantra: There is no event by which and through which life its self is not trying to awaken you to your most authentic, loving, and creative self. There is no event that is not speaking to you. Lifeshocks are collision points between what we expect and how it really is. In other words, we run into reality and think it should be different. But actually these moments challenge our expectations, our conditioning, our belief in very profound ways. Sophie says “Sometimes we rise to our destinys when we’re brought to our knees.” Next Sophie and Emily discuss the lifeshock of the COVID-19 crisis and how we’re being humbled and reminded of what really matters. Sophie explains that if she held onto anything that said her life doesn’t matter she wouldn’t have been able to put energy into herself to stay alive. According to Sophie, the only way out of fear is through it - no way over or around it. Sophie shares that there is pain and suffering and illness in life but we make it worse because of how we interpret it as happening. In other words, fear is self generated by what we think. Sophie can control the quality of her life as long as there is breath in her body. Some people are free of cancer but not really free mentally. Everything we feel is from the neck down. Our breath brings us into our bodies and our feelings. Next Sophie talks about her studies and work and how they prepared her for her cancer diagnosis. Emily talks about benefit of sharing stories and how they can help other people move onward. Sophie introduces a caveat on sharing stories saying, we must be conscious of where we’re coming from when we tell our stories. She tells her story to enhance our lives. Finally, Sophie states “I don’t want even this podcast to be about my story. I want it to be about there is no lifeshock by which and through wich life is not awakening you to your most authentic, loving, and creative self. That’s what I want this podcast to be about and that is for everyone who’s listening.

In today’s episode, Sophie Howard shares her journey with Crohn’s Disease. After being diagnosed at the age of 11, she learned to navigate the ups and downs of Crohn’s as a child and fought off countless infections over the years. Now, 14 years later, she chooses to look at the accomplishments in her life and hasn’t let Crohn’s hold her back. Although food is not a trigger for Sophie, stress is. She’s learned the importance of sleep, stress management, and how to balance fitness and recovery. As an avid traveler, Sophie shares her tips for reducing stress while traveling, including why she packs as light as possible and why she increases her vitamins before a trip. She’s also learned to appreciate simple things in life, like walking outdoors to enjoy the fresh air and taking long, hot baths on a regular basis. She makes priority lists every morning to help her focus on what she wants to get done first and what can wait until later, if needed. After feeling very alone as a child with Crohn’s Disease, growing up in a small town where she didn’t know anyone else with IBD, Sohpie embraced the support and connection that being an active part of the IBD community online offers. She felt immediately connected with fellow IBD patients from all around the world who shared the same disease. She’s now speaking up and sharing her voice in the community. She describes it as a place “where everybody is talking about their experiences daily...and we’re all pushing each other to be better and we’re all pushing each other to widen the conversation and to make sure we are educating everybody who doesn’t know about IBD...and what it’s like to live with it.” She blogs about her travels at www.crohnswithme.com and shares her journey on Instagram (@crohnswithme). She hopes to show that life can be good and that it’s about making simple adventures as fun and as easy on yourself as possible.
Welcome this week's guest Sophie Beya. Sophie is a single mama who, although she probably doesn't think so, is crushing motherhood. In this episode, Sohpie tells us her story and hands out all sorts of life lessons. This episode is super important, ya'll. Take a listen.

At the beginning of every Pokémon game, players must make a Sohpie’s Choice-like decision to ally themselves with a single, cuddly fighting animal. While their stable will undoubtedly expand, it is that creature who will be their intimate companion on the long road to becoming the very best. Like no one ever was. Today’s formal debate brings three Pokémon experts to the fore, including Polygon’s Allegra Frank and Ryan Gilliam as well as The Verge’s Megan Farokhmanesh. They will each make their case for one of the three iconic starting Pokémon: Charmander, Squirtle, and Bulbasaur. Later this week, Polygon will also publish passionate analyses of each of these starting Pokémon. Then, next week on our official Twitter account, you will be able to make your voices heard with a final vote. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Just as the super fans predicted last week, the penultimate episode delivered another "lackluster" performance from Laurel and Donathan who only managed to conjure up more "veiled" threats, squandered any remaining "win equity" they had mustered at the merge, and watched the last of their "social capital" circle the drain. All hope is not lost though. We are looking forward to a few more surprises in the finale! We want to thank and acknowledge everyone who contributed to another great Listener Feedback show.
