Poet, publisher, and educator Anthony Anaxagorou on treating rejection as part of the job, pushing an idea to its edge without losing the reader, and ending a poem where it can keep travelling — a re-release of episode #012.You'll learn:Why walking away from writing for years doesn't necessarily mean you ever left it.How to treat rejection as part of the job rather than a verdict on your worth.What happens to your work when one stamp of validation starts to feel like an entitlement.How a restless, never-satisfied mind can become a creative engine.A morning listening exercise, borrowed from Lydia Davis, that can hand you the first line of a poem.What to do when you're stuck on a line and the answer is sitting on your bookshelf.Why “accessible” is one of the most loaded words in poetry.How far to push an idea before you lose the reader.Two ways to take a flat, literal line and make it tell the truth slant.Why your poem probably starts later and ends earlier than you think, and what the reader does with the space you leave.Resources & LinksOriginal episode: #012 Anthony Anaxagorou — Push Past Self-Doubt and Think Like a PoetAnthony's websiteHow to Write ItAfter the FormalitiesHeritage AestheticsOut-SpokenOut-Spoken Press“Tell all the truth but tell it slant” by Emily DickinsonAbout Anthony AnaxagorouAnthony Anaxagorou FRSL is a British-born Cypriot poet, fiction writer, essayist, publisher and poetry educator.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week is the digital debut of Pip's live spoken word rendition of the DISTRACTION PIECES album in full!For total clarity, the order of events was the solo album 'Distraction Pieces', and then this podcast. So it makes total sense that in this whole podcast ouroboros and infinity loop we have in front of us, the podcast itself is the perfect platform for the very first digital unveiling of the spoken word version! While Pip was filming in Canada in maximum pandemic, time marched on until boom, it was time for the 10 year anniversary of his solo album. With the initial album on deck as a proper reissue, it turned out that with all that isolation and solo time that was in fact legally mandated, it was the ideal moment to add a little special something to the reissue situation. What better moment to leap back in time to the days of rocking up to a venue with a notebook and not much else, to perform spoken word and get your name out there where the game was a good deal of word of mouth and not all socials. Pip packed up his mic and jetted to Stanley Park, up on the tippy top of Vancouver, recorded the whole album acapella, and this formed disc 2 of the vinyl reissue. It was never digitally released, no Bandcamps, no streamers, nothing, and so if you didn't cop the wax you won't have heard this. So it really is a very special thing indeed, and represents a really important era in the Pip career path. Enjoy, and as this isn't a regular sounding episode (ie. not an interview), maybe set aside some time to take it in properly and without - indeed - distractions.Recorded by Pip • mix/edit/master by Buddy PeacePIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureSPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMPIP TWITTERPIP PATREONPIP IMDB Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, LDF host Dan Wotherspoon chats with William Evans, whose spiritual path is unusual for a Latter-day Saint but one that has led him to an expansive vision of life in general along with greater peace than he has ever had. Born and raised as a grandson of LDS apostle, Richard L. Evans, who is perhaps best known for his multi-decade tenure writing and voicing "Music and the Spoken Word" during the long-running Sunday morning show featuring the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. William was a faithful, very involved Latter-day Saint, serving a mission to Germany, earning a bachelor's degree at BYU, which was followed by both a master's degree and doctorate from Creighton University. During these years, he remained faithful but haunted by the LDS Church's shift from a visionary, expansive one to today's version that eschews both things. Drawn to quiet reflection (but a failure at "meditation"--can some of you relate?) and also suffering from insomnia, he eventually discovered floatation therapy (a form of sensory deprivation), and then for the past five years has also been undertaking psilocybin ("magic mushroom") journeys as a spiritual practice (and overseen by trained and loving facilitators) that have led to deep inner healing that has helped him move past much of his inner turmoil related to his upbringing and membership in a church that fails to deliver what he has long craved. These therapies, along with additional reflective tools he has honed for his own needs (and discussed in the conversation) have allowed his deep, beautiful, expansive, loving soul to come alive. You will enjoy meeting him in this episode! Note: William is also a regular attendee of Latter-day Lunches, our weekly virtual group who gathers through Zoom on Mondays from noon to 1:30 pm Mountain).

Wednesdays on Whidbey: We Absolutely Need to Hear a Woman's True Voice Speaking From Her Identity

Stories From Women Who Walk

Play Episode Listen Later Aug 5, 2026 5:41


Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga. Why are stories spoken aloud? Why do we lean into the music of the spoken word? And why do we need to hear a woman's voice speaking her truth from her heart, her identity? Written text is processed intellectually by the brain but the spoken word resonates deeply. When we hear a woman's voice take a breath, pause, and speak from the heart, we feel it emotionally. The pauses, the unhurried rhythm, and the warmth of delivery invite listeners to feel like they are right in the moment of the story sitting side-by-side. For just a moment let's sit together. I've been reflecting on how we transform our lived personal experiences, the memories, the moments into story magic that captivates the listener with its universal meaning. Hint: It's the archeological dig. The archeological dig uncovering the treasure trove of our lived experiences is where we challenge ourselves to discover and make sense of what our story is really all about. Not just the quick, cheap, easy, and superficial answers but what flows like a river under the frozen ice. You and I know we aren't just talking about words on a page here. We're talking about how we hold our own lives. Most of the time we're taught to just report the facts. "Here's what I did today. Here's who I took care of. Here's my role." It's polite... it keeps the peace...it's empty and boring. We women of “middle earth age” can no longer deny the quiet, restless ache that shows up in the middle season of our lives. It's the emotional weight of a deeper question: Who am I... when no one is asking me to be anyone for them? When you finally stop and attend to that ache... that's where your real story begins. That is the moment of self-discovery and, more importantly, identity. You realize you aren't just a collection of jobs and titles; you are your own unique engagement with this world. And what about the thing you've actually come here to say? The wisdom you've earned? It doesn't need to be shouted out loud. It just needs to be true. It's the moment of self-definition... where you stop asking for permission to occupy your own life. It's looking at yourself in the mirror and realizing... my perspective matters. My voice does not need to be softened to be acceptable. When you lean into that... you aren't just letting life happen to you anymore. You are claiming your narrative. You are saying what you mean... and maybe for the very first time. That's what depth of inquiry means. It's having the courage to sit in the quiet... until the surface noise fades... and the truth of who you really are finally rises up. CTA: Today, don't just live the plot of your life. Lean into the rich, unfolding, joyful, wisdom of it. Say what you mean, mean what you say and let yourself be known - to yourself.

For several years, I performed as a member of the Orchestra at Temple Square, accompanying what was then known as the Mormon Tabernacle Choir on *Music and the Spoken Word*.From long Sunday mornings and rehearsals in the Tabernacle to touring, auditions, and eventually leaving the orchestra, this is my honest story of what it was really like behind the scenes.This isn't an exposé. It's a personal memoir about music, faith, and one of the most memorable chapters of my life.Along the way, I discuss:* What rehearsals were really like* The musicians behind the performances* Touring with the orchestra* My changing beliefs while still performing* The emotional power of music* How my time with the orchestra unexpectedly came to an endAlthough I no longer believe in the truth claims of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I remain deeply grateful for the opportunity to make music alongside so many exceptional musicians. Some experiences transcend belief, and beautiful music is one of them.If you enjoy thoughtful conversations about Mormonism, music, faith transitions, and honest personal stories, consider subscribing for more episodes.**#Mormon #ExMormon #TabernacleChoir #TempleSquare #MusicAndTheSpokenWord #LDS #FaithJourney #ClassicalMusic #MormonStories #MormonNewsRoundup**Please consider making a donation by joining our Patreon https://www.patreon.com/MormonNewsRoundup Email: kolob@mormonnewsroundup.org Website: https://mormonnewsroundup.org/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mormonnewsroundup Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mormon_news_roundup/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100093511869924 X: https://twitter.com/NewsMormon New episodes LIVE every Sunday and Monday nights at 9:30PM ESTPlease like and subscribe and hit the notifications bell.

Mental health is the number one crisis commanding our culture today, trapping millions in a relentless cycle of confusion, chaos, and dis-ease as they desperately try to outrun their own internal trauma. We are medicating our pain at unprecedented rates while drowning in a sea of subjective opinions that deny the absolute, universal laws of nature. Yet, when we examine the disparity between the brave stories we speak with our mouths and the agonizing symptoms manifested in our physical anatomy, we confront an unmistakable reality: the body keeps the score. Our stories didn't begin at home; we carry the biological downloads and emotional conflicts of our lineage, but we remain the sovereign agents responsible for our own healing. True restoration demands that we understand our inner constitution—the divine architecture of spirit, soul, and body—and exercise internal liberty, the structural capacity to self-govern our mind, heart, and central nervous system. By rejecting the modern myth of "personal truth" in favor of absolute moral principles, we stop running from ourselves and begin reasoning significance. Only through this active, intentional process of discipleship counseling can we displace internal disorder with clarity, order, and ease, stepping out of bondage and into the external freedom of wholeness.Where to Find Virginia: WebsiteSubstackInstagramFacebook

Grief and healing often begin with telling the story we've been afraid to share. In this heartfelt conversation about child loss, domestic violence, mental health, and healing through storytelling, we explore how one mother transformed unimaginable pain into purpose.In this episode of Groove with Portia, I sit down with Kia Wallace, domestic violence survivor, advocate, and spoken word artist. Kia opens her heart about the loss of her 15-year-old daughter, Jordan, to a fentanyl overdose, surviving domestic violence, and discovering that poetry became a pathway toward healing.Together, we discuss the realities of grief after losing a child, the misconceptions surrounding domestic violence, rebuilding faith after tragedy, and why survivors deserve compassion instead of judgment. Kia also shares how spoken word gave her the courage to reclaim her voice and encourage others to do the same.In this episode, we discuss:• Honoring Jordan's life and legacy• The impact of fentanyl on families• Life after domestic violence• Healing through poetry and spoken word• Rebuilding faith after profound loss• The stigma survivors continue to face• Finding strength through storytelling• Turning pain into purposeWhether you're grieving the loss of a loved one, healing from trauma, or supporting someone through a difficult season, this conversation is a reminder that hope can still be found, even after life's darkest moments.Connect with Kia Wallace: https://www.facebook.com/ksade.savageEmail: KiaW1012@icloud.com
