Podcasts about wabi sabi

Let's be real—life falls apart sometimes. But here's the good news: in Japan, we don't toss the broken stuff—we gold it. This week on Wabi Sabi, I'm diving into the art of kintsugi and how those so-called “cracks” in your life can actually lead you to your ikigai—your purpose, your why, your get-out-of-bed-and-make-matcha energy. We'll talk breakups, burnout, identity shifts, and how feeling “off” can actually be the beginning of something beautiful. It's not about having it all together—it's about loving your flaws, laughing at the mess, and finding your path anyway. This is your permission slip to be a little broken, a little fabulous, and a lot more you.

Hey friend, I know I've been a bit MIA from the pod these past few weeks, and I truly appreciate your patience. Life has its seasons, and sometimes we walk through chapters that aren't ready to be shared—yet. What I can say is this: we're all on our own unique path, and you never really know what someone else is going through. That's why it's more important than ever to lead with compassion. Everyone—everyone—is doing their best with what they have. When we start from that belief, we shift the way we see the world. We soften. We open. We allow more grace in. Today we will also be doing just a round up of recent events and little notes that you've all sent my way... Today's episode is a gentle reminder to pause. To take care of yourself. To give back to your community, even in small, quiet ways. To rest. To breathe. To do the little things that bring you peace. As one of my favorite monks once told me in Japan: "Bochi bochi ganbatte." Step by step, do your best. We'll also explore some perspectives from the Kintsugi documentary—how we mend, how we shift, and how we prepare for change in this ever-evolving world. And always remember: Wabi Sabi is about embracing the beauty in imperfection. Life isn't meant to be polished. It's meant to be real. So don't stress too much. You're doing better than you think. Let's begin.

Welcome to a second look at Wabi Sabi: a Japanese philosophy that I'm going to define too simply as a celebration of  imperfection. In this episode we look at 3 different books about the subject. Our first look at this, a favorite subject, was back in 2020. My favorite memory of that recording was our guests, Sensei Tracey and Sensei Sam. Interested?

For as long as he can remember, Leonard Koren has been searching for beauty and pleasure. Throughout his career, the author and artist—he prefers the term “creator”—has spent considerable time putting to paper expressions and conceptual views that architects, artists, designers, and others have long struggled to find the proper framing of or words for. In 1976, when he launched the counterculture publication WET: The Magazine of Gourmet Bathing, he ushered in the idea of “gourmet bathing,” which has maintained a potent cultural niche in the nearly 50 years since. With Wabi-Sabi for Artists, Designers, Poets & Philosophers, published in 1994, Koren introduced the Japanese expression for “beautiful, imperfect, and impermanent” to the West, where it quickly took on a life of its own. Perhaps one of Koren's greatest talents is his rare ability to translate philosophical meditations on seemingly esoteric subjects into accessible, approachable texts about ways of being, seeing, thinking, making, and feeling. On the episode, Koren details his best—and worst—baths, and explains why he views his life as one long aesthetic experience.Special thanks to our Season 11 presenting sponsor, L'École, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:Leonard Koren[4:01] “Undesigning the Bath”[7:30] Century Tower[7:30] 7132 Hotel (Therme Vals)[9:26] “WET: The Magazine of Gourmet Bathing”[9:26] Max Palevsky[9:26] Craig Elwood[13:32] “From ‘WET' to ‘Wabi-Sabi': Leonard Koren's Adventurous Aesthetic Journey”[13:32] Mick Jagger[13:32] Richard Gere[13:32] Debbie Harry[17:09] Charlie Haas[18:25] “The Slow Lane”[18:25] Pilar Viladas[21:49] “How to Take a Japanese Bath”[21:49] “Wabi-Sabi for Artists, Designers, Poets & Philosophers”[21:49] “Wabi-Sabi: Further Thoughts”[28:23] Okakura Kakuzō's “The Book of Tea”[31:38] Glenn Adamson[31:38] Sen no Rikyū[39:29] “Noise Reduction: A 10-Minute Meditation for Quieting the Mind”[42:32] “The Haggler's Handbook”[44:22] “283 Useful Ideas from Japan”[46:56] “The Flower Shop”[46:56] Blumenkraft[46:56] “On Creating Things Aesthetic”[46:56] “Which “Aesthetics” Do You Mean?”

Pour cet épisode de mars, nous parlons de Sen no Rikyū, celui que l'on considère comme le plus grand maitre du thé de tous les temps, et qui s'est donné la mort à 70 ans sur ordre du seigneur de guerre Hideyoshi, qu'il servait. Allons à sa rencontre le temps de cet épisode. Sen no Rikyu a vécu au XVIe siècle, de 1522 à 1591, il est le contemporain de Oda Nubunaga, le seigneur samouraï dont nous avons parlé dans l'épisode dernier, celui qui a introduit les armes à feu sur le champs de bataille.Rikyu va d'ailleurs devenir son maître de thé, ainsi que celui de son successeur Hideyoshi. Avec Ieyasu, ils sont surnommés les trois grands unificateurs du Japon, qui à l'issue de combats acharnés, ont uni le pays. Mais plutôt que le bushido, la voie du guerrier, Sen-no-rikyu s'est consacré tout entier à la voie du thé, le sado. Comme le bushido, le sado est une voie d'accomplissement qui dépasse largement la simple préparation d'une boisson. Ce faisant, il a révolutionné l'esthétique japonaise et a développé un mode de vie basé sur la simplicité, l'humilité et la spiritualité. Son approche connue sous le nom de wabi-cha a marqué non seulement la cérémonie du thé, mais aussi l'art, l'architecture et la pensée zen au Japon.Comment Sen-no-Rikyu a-t-il réussi à jouer un rôle si important aux yeux de ses contemporaines et dans l'histoire du Japon, lui qui était juste maitre de thé ? Qu'est ce qui a amené Hideyoshi à ordonner la mort de Riyuku qui était son serviteur et confident ? Et pourquoi la voie du thé est-elle si importante pour comprendre la culture japonaise ? Voici quelques unes des questions auxquelles nous allons tenter ici de répondre.Pour avoir les références et informations de cet épisode, c'est par ici : https://www.maisondumochi.fr/magazine/le-podcast-tsukimi-episode-36-sen-no-rikyu-la-ceremonie-du-the-et-le-wabisabi/Hébergé par Ausha.

En este episodio de El Artesano, Pablo Ortiz de Zárate nos lleva a Japón para explorar tres conceptos clave de su arte y filosofía: wabi-sabi, kintsugi y kawaii. Aunque estos términos puedan sonar extraños, son herramientas que nos enseñan a abrazar la imperfección y la fragilidad en nuestras vidas cotidianas. Descubrimos cómo el wabi-sabi celebra la belleza de lo simple y lo imperfecto, cómo el kintsugi transforma las cicatrices de un objeto roto en un símbolo de fortaleza, y cómo el fenómeno kawaii refleja la necesidad de recuperar la inocencia y la fragilidad en el agobiante mundo adulto.

Welcome to this episode of the Wabi Sabi podcast! Today, we dive deep into the powerful and inspiring reviews you've shared with us about what you took away from the Kintsugi documentary. Your feedback has been nothing short of amazing, and I can't wait to reflect on it with you. Have you ever felt like giving up on your dreams? I know I have. In today's episode, I'll be sharing some personal insights on how I've shifted my perspective, shaped my future, and kept pushing forward—even when there was no immediate reward and when others doubted me. These are not easy stories to share, especially when faced with negative comments or criticism—because yes, it happens. But through it all, I've learned one crucial thing: the moment an artist stops pursuing their dream is the moment that dream dies. I'm here to remind you to keep going, no matter what. Thank you for listening and if you love the show, don't forget to leave us a five-star review to help keep this free, public service podcast alive. xx Candice

Drew and Rory sound like they know what they're doing as they dissect the messy art of mood boards, style references, and Midjourney's ever-changing quirks, but can they be trusted?They debate whether organization is a blessing or a curse, try to make sense of image ranking, and wonder if Midjourney's interface was designed by someone who actively dislikes users. Along the way, they rediscover old tokens/techniques (like wabi-sabi) that were apparently genius all along—if only they had remembered them sooner. They break down the fine line between coherence and chaos in image generation, test the limits of personalization, and realize that sometimes the best creative breakthroughs come from happy accidents.They wrap things up by reminiscing about the good old days of Midjourney V4—because nostalgia makes everything seem better. It's part creative therapy, part AI troubleshooting, and entirely a reminder that no one really has this figured out.Ep.33 Midjourney After Dark—Organized Chaos & Wabi-Sabi

Austin's Sam Hernandez has always seen life through a different prism. Colors, textures, and the planes of reality are subjective and mere suggestions.

In this guided meditation we will be exploring the Japanese aesthetic philosophy of wabi sabi and how we can integrate it into our just-sitting practice. Wabi is about finding beauty in imperfection, simplicity, things that are aged and broken and cracked. Sabi is the appreciation of the beauty of impermanence and transience and the kind of melancholy feeling which comes with that which is kind of a sweet feeling. Sabi is concerned with the passage of time, with the way in which all things grow and decay and how aging alters the visual nature of those things.

In this fascinating conversation with Biba Logan, we dive deep into the mysteries of human origin, consciousness, and the quest to explore the unknown. Biba shares her unique perspective on being human—highlighting the beauty of our imperfections, the richness of our diversity, and how these traits shape our understanding of the world and ourselves. Drawing inspiration from the philosophy of Wabi-Sabi, Biba celebrates the inherent flaws and idiosyncrasies that make us who we are. As we explore the profound questions of existence, Biba reflects on the importance of allowing individuals to think for themselves, encouraging a journey of self-discovery and personal growth. This conversation is a beautiful ode to embracing life's complexities and finding wisdom in the uncharted territories of consciousness. Join us as we unlock new insights into the human experience, from the origins of our being to the deeper truths that lie within the unknown.

Constant and Never-Ending Improvement; The Attitude of Effective Leaders. God calls us to Constant and Never-Ending Improvement.  We are called to be NEW CREATIONS, getting better mentally, spiritually, emotionally and personally.  This is why we believe the sign of a Leader is, Under Construction. The Japanese are world renowned for their quality of life, and of manufacturing.  What I believe makes the Japanese people stand out is their attitude, their mindset of Continual Improvement.  An American named Dr. Deming went to Japan after America defeated them in WW2.  Dr. Deming taught the Japanese and important principle of life: Quality always costs less! He posited to the Japanese that if they could just focus on constantly improving, they would eventually be globally dominant. Today on Like It Matters Radio Mr. Black wants to focus in on 6+1 mindsets that the Japanese use to keep their hearts and minds focused on Constant and Never-Ending Improvement: Ikigai, Kaizen, Pomodoro Technique, Hara Hachi Bu, Shoshin, Wabi-Sabi and Kata. Tune into Like It Matters Radio for an hour of Power as Mr. Black helps listeners get their minds right!  Because it is that attitude that causes a leader to live their life like it Matters!

Welcome to another episode of "Predictable B2B Success," hosted by Vinay Koshy! Today, we have an enlightening conversation with Brittany Greenfield, the dynamic CEO of Wabi. Brittany sheds light on an often-overlooked area of cybersecurity: the pivotal role developers play and the challenges they face. In a world where the shortage of cybersecurity professionals is acute, Brittany's vision for empowering developers with more autonomy and integrating security directly into their workflow is not just a solution but an inspiration. We'll explore the cultural shifts required within organizations to embed security at the heart of development processes. Brittany will also discuss the pitfalls of over-reliance on tools at the expense of robust security processes and the complexities of managing compliance intelligently. As AI continues its rapid and sometimes bewildering evolution, Brittany highlights the importance of good process hygiene to integrate new technologies safely. This emphasis on process hygiene is not just a precaution but a reassurance that safety and security can be maintained despite rapid technological change. We also discuss Wabi's innovative approach to cybersecurity, designed to drastically reduce project delays and breach risks while enhancing developer productivity. Finally, tune in to hear about Brittany's insights on market dynamics, cybersecurity budget justification, and how adopting the Japanese concept of Wabi Sabi can be a game changer. Don't miss this episode with actionable strategies to fortify your cybersecurity framework and drive business growth! Some areas we explore in this episode include: Empowering Developers in Cybersecurity: Addressing the shortage of cybersecurity professionals by integrating security into developers' workflows.Cultural Shifts in Organizations: Recognizing the significance of security and the challenges of focusing on tools instead of processes within DevSecOps.Compliance Management by Exception: Planning for compliance deviations intelligently to improve efficiency and reduce audit pressures on developers.AI Adoption and Security Hygiene: The rapid evolution of AI and the importance of integrating it securely through established processes.Cybersecurity Budget Justification: Linking cybersecurity investments to business drivers like developer productivity and project delivery timelines.Wabi's Growth and Market Maturity: Leveraging market maturity and positioning as a consultative partner during DevOps transformations.Challenges in Market Differentiation: Overcoming market noise and skepticism to secure client meetings and differentiate Wabi.Pricing and Market Fit Insights: Realizing the need to link pricing to FTE impacts and adapting it to different customer profiles.Process Over Tools Philosophy: Emphasizing process improvement before implementing new technologies and managing risk by design.Wabi Platform and Benefits: Providing a shared services model for application security, reducing project delays and breach risks, and enhancing productivity through effective process integration.And much, much more...

On this episode of the Wabi Sabi podcast, we dive into the theme of overcoming change by letting go, drawing inspiration from the timeless teachings of Dr. Wayne Dyer. With fall upon us, it's the perfect season to reflect, release, and make brave changes. We explore practical tools for finding peace within and breaking free from your limiting beliefs, helping you navigate life's transitions with grace. Tune in for thoughtful discussions on how going inward, working on your own personal healing can make a profound difference in your life, enabling you to do difficult or even scary things and step into your true potential this season by shedding what no longer serves you.
