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

This episode of EV Musings explores the concept of renting electric vehicles (EVs) instead of owning them. The discussion covers short-term rental services like Zimble, which offers hourly EV rentals with home delivery, and traditional rental companies like Europcar, which provide both short-term and long-term EV rental options. The episode highlights the benefits of EV rentals, including cost savings, reduced environmental impact, and the opportunity for potential EV buyers to experience driving an electric car before making a purchase. We'll look at the big rental companies AND the smaller, more bespoke rental companiesGuest Details:Tom Middleditch - An experienced marketing and product development leader, Tom has been in the mobility sector for more than 15 years, and has worked for a number of brands in the leisure and business travel space. He joined Europcar in 2015, and today leads the B2B marketing activities. With a passion for greener motoring, in Summer 2023 he was appointed as Head of Electric Mobility. In particular, Tom's focus has been on widening awareness of the role vehicle rental can play in helping businesses and individuals reduce their environmental impact – whether that be changing attitudes to vehicle ownership or driving electric. Dispelling the myths around electric motoring is a central objective of this activity. His contributions to the industry were recognised when he was named an EV Champion at the 2023 GreenFleet Awards.Tom's WebsiteThis season of the podcast is sponsored by Zapmap, the free to download app that helps EV drivers search, plan, and pay for their charging.Links in the show notes:Electric Car Hire in Oxfordshire - ZimblNottingham gets next batch of electric buses - Cool ThingEuropcar EV GuideEpisode produced by Arran Sheppard at Urban Podcasts: https://www.urbanpodcasts.co.uk(C) 2019-2024 Gary Comerford Support me: Patreon Link: http://www.patreon.com/evmusingsKo-fi Link: http://www.ko-fi.com/evmusings The Books:'So, you've gone electric?' on Amazon : https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07Q5JVF1X'So, you've gone renewable?' on Amazon : https://amzn.to/3LXvIckSocial Media:EVMusings: Twitter https://twitter.com/MusingsEvInstagram: @EVmusingsOctopus Energy referral code (Click this link to get started) https://share.octopus.energy/neat-star-460Upgrade to smarter EV driving with a free week's trial of Zapmap Premium, find out more here https://evmusings.com/zapmap-premiumMentioned in this episode:ZapmapThe...

ABOUT THE EPISODE:Consider this your wakeup call: In 2023, the number of people using marijuana products daily surpassed those who use alcohol daily - even though three times as many people drink. Young people aged 18-25 make up the largest group of those daily users.As president of the Partnership to End Addiction for five years, Fred Muench, Ph.D. provided recovery information and resources about all substances, from alcohol to heroin. But when his team looked over their own helpline data, they noticed that calls about marijuana far outpaced every other substance. Most were calls from parents, and they weren't simply discovering that their children had begun using high-potency marijuana. Many were detailing their kids dropping out of school after daily use, or even showing frightening signs of cannabis-induced psychosis.Today, Fred is the founder and CEO of Clear30, a community-centered support app that invites people to change their relationship to weed. The app isn't just a repository of information, but a personalized, interactive support system for withdrawal and recovery. Clear30 invites daily users to take a 30-day break, examine their own symptoms, and find encouragement from others who are finding that high-potency marijuana isn't all it was promised to be.In this episode, Fred and I talk about the inception of Clear30, the specific support systems it can provide, the difference between male and female withdrawal symptoms, and the questionable marketing of marijuana products.EPISODE RESOURCES:The Clear 30 websiteThis podcast is part of a nonprofit called Hopestream CommunityLearn about The Stream, our private online community for momsFind us on Instagram hereFind us on YouTube hereDownload a free e-book, Worried Sick: A Compassionate Guide For Parents When Your Teen or Young Adult Child Misuses Drugs and AlcoholHopestream Community is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and an Amazon Associate.

In this bonus episode, grace shares what's underneath the frustration, resentment, guilt and the plaguing sense that you're not doing enough to save the world.This un-embodied paradox is probably why your business isn't working, why your creations don't have that sparkle, why your mission isn't moving, your creativity is stagnant, or your relationship is just… ok.Be sure to listen to the end, for a simple and portable embodiment practice to help you ground into the present moment.“Your capacity and your prowess to embody the Beauty of the New Earth is more important than all the things you are DO-ing.” — grace allerdiceLINKSIf 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.

Investigate what happens when we avoid initiation and how to recognize when we're doing that. 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. Learn why engaging initiation is crucial for personal growth and how avoiding it keeps us tethered to beliefs and behaviors that prevent true evolution.“everything you want for this world, out of the beautiful innocent goodness of your Heart, can only manifest if… when… there is a Great Change in human consciousness.” — grace allerdicewe discuss —The difference between spiritually mature individuals who embrace initiation versus those who avoid itHow lack of initiation keeps us stuck in adolescent emotional patternsWhy we struggle to connect with and embody powerful energiesThe importance of death and rebirth cycles in spiritual transformationHow to recognize and respond to initiation when it appears in our livesWhat is really behind the energy of initiation and what it could unlocklinks —If you enjoyed the episode, check out —Beauty is Everything

In this episode, Gary continues his look at charging solutions for those with no off-street parking.In episode 199 last season we looked at public charging solutions. In this episode, we'll look at solutions that allow you to use your own electricity supply but pipe it out to a car on the road.Guest Details:Ben Macdonald : Ben has been an environmentalist and educator throughout his career. He cofounded an environmental group in Aotearoa/New Zealand in 1997 that led to the cessation of logging of lowland temperate rainforest by a State Owned Enterprise. He then went into education to help shape the attitudes of future leaders teaching in SE London schools for 20 years. He began his foray into the world of EV infrastructure when he made his first cable gantry in 2016 in a futile attempt to charge an EV whilst parked on street. In 2021 he founded Nodum with Kohen Judd to help make EV charging more accessible to more people. Nodum has two products coming to market in 2024 and 2025.

ABOUT THE EPISODE:It probably doesn't surprise you that the majority of Hopestream Community members are moms. About 70% of therapists are women, as well, and women are significantly more likely than men to seek out their services.Last year, we launched The Woods, our private community for dads, stepdads, and male co-parents. And as much as we would love to help more dads who have kids struggling with substances, they don't come flocking to our services. I wanted to dive into this imbalance and asked Steve Andrews to join me for a conversation. As host of The Woods, Steve brings a lot of harrowing personal experience to the table. When his son first began misusing DXM, Kratom, alcohol, and marijuana in middle school, he had no idea how bad things would get. (To hear his whole story, check out his first appearance on the show at the link below.)Now, with his son in full recovery, Steve is a practicing therapist. He's seen this gender dynamic play out within himself, in The Woods, and the world of therapeutic practice. Today, he gives us his best take on why men seem to have a natural aversion to approaches like The Invitation to Change and CRAFT and how we can reframe those ideas in a more accessible way.EPISODE RESOURCES:Steve's Story, Hopestream Episode 183Never Split The Difference, book by Chris VossSteve's websiteThis podcast is part of a nonprofit called Hopestream CommunityLearn about The Stream, our private online community for momsLearn about The Woods, our private online community for dadsFind us on Instagram: @hopestreamcommunityDownload a free e-book, Worried Sick: A Compassionate Guide For Parents When Your Teen or Young Adult Child Misuses Drugs and AlcoholHopestream Community is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and an Amazon Associate.

Are you scaling your food, drink or pet treat brand and have taken time to think about how to get stocked into all the stores you've successfully landed? What about how much it's costing you to store inventory rather than landing it on the retail shelf? Or how much each carton is costing you to deliver so you can work out what your precise CLOGS are?You quite possibly haven't!!! Supply chain is not the first thing Foodpreneurs think about as they're making amazing products. Well… that is until they're scaling and got to get product into many, many different locations and make sure there's enough to fulfil orders but not too much that it ties up cash. These and other supply chain by design processes are the expertise of my guests in this episode, Cameron Aboud and Joost Bekker from sc3sixty logistics management. They're the supply chain masterminds behind the global expansion of the hangover-busting dream team that created Bae Juice, and countless other brands!If you want to get stock to stores without it costing a tonne of money, listen to what Cameron and Joost have to say about:

EP. 212ABOUT THE EPISODE:When Dr. Nzinga Harrison was recently approached by her son, a high school senior, about going to his first party, she consented. He was unsurprised by her followup question: “Do you think there will be drugs there?” As an addiction psychiatrist and M.D. specializing in addiction medicine, Dr. Harrison had been talking with him about substances since he was very young, so the question wasn't awkward. “Yeah, probably,” he replied. As her stomach twisted, she realized that the years of preparation for this stage of his life were about to be tested – if not at the party, then sometime soon afterward.In the two years since our favorite doctor was last on the show, Dr. Harrison has organized much of her extensive knowledge about the roots of substance use disorders into a new book: Un-addiction: 6 Mind-Changing Conversations That Could Save a Life. The framework is comprehensive and data-driven, but also plainly written and easy to understand. I tried using sticky notes to mark the best parts, but gave up when I realized I was marking almost every page.In this conversation, Dr. Harrison lays out these six conversations, sharing with us how the conversation with her son progressed, and covering a range of other topics, including:Conversational scripts for talking to kids about substancesThe importance of asking, “What do you know?” without judgmentThe nascent idea of “pre-addiction” and how understanding it can change the trajectory for someone strugglingHow your ZNA (zip code at birth) predicts health outcomes better than your current zip codeHow cultural traditions and rituals can create risk factorsEPISODE RESOURCES:Un-Addiction bookEleanor HealthDr. Nzinga Harrison's websiteThis podcast is part of a nonprofit called Hopestream CommunityLearn about The Stream, our private online community for momsFind us on Instagram: @hopestreamcommunityDownload a free e-book, Worried Sick: A Compassionate Guide For Parents When Your Teen or Young Adult Child Misuses Drugs and AlcoholHopestream Community is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and an Amazon Associate.

It pulls me into a wider and greater understanding.Tune in to this episode to learn how the three or the third gives us a code for understanding humanity's current chapter, as well as how we can become more skillful in what seem to be increasingly polarized situations or realities.“The third is not just playing the game.

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. Her most recent work addresses the many ways water is abstracted through ethics and aesthetics, how this affects climate literacy, and how climate literacy is connected to human and more-than-human relations.we discuss —Huda's life-long connection with waterInteracting and collaborating with water through artChallenging logic that centers humansLife informing art and art informing lifeThe commodification of waterThe connection between Huda's work and performance artLINKSIf you enjoyed the episode, check out —Water Medicine + the House of the Goddess w—graceOf Selkies + Cycles w— mary graceBurn Out + Water Medicine w— mary graceMentioned in the episode—Learn more about the Water Medicine courseWhat is Water? book by Jamie LintonMore about our guest —Huda's websiteHuda's 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

She shares her belief in the fluidity of identity and her disinterest in being boxed into specific identities, advocating against reducing one's identity to marketable, narrow brackets.

Have you taken time to slow down lately?Hey friends! We just wanted to take a moment during this super busy time of year to encourage you. We see you, and as parents, we know that it's so easy to slip into the trap of feeling pressure to do it all. So here's your reminder to slow down and focus on what's in front of you.We know we all want to bless our kids and give them good gifts (and there's nothing wrong with that!).. But the reality is that years down the road, your kids are going to look back most fondly on the memories that were made, and not the gifts they received. So let this short message be the nudge that you need to take a deep breath and just enjoy this season. Focus on being present with your family, and not quite as much on the presents under the tree. And most importantly, let's remember that if it weren't for the birth of Jesus, we wouldn't be celebrating at all.We love you, friends! You are doing a great job.

How can we lean into our children's nature and learn to nurture it?When our kiddos come into the world, they bring along their unique set of characteristics and tendencies. These inherent qualities are like pieces of a puzzle that make up their nature. It's the starting point, the foundation upon which their personality takes shape.But here's the thing: while nature provides the initial blueprint, it's the nurturing environment that helps fill their buckets, allowing those innate qualities to flourish and grow. As parents, caregivers, and mentors, we are like gardeners tending to a precious garden. We create the nurturing soil, provide the right nutrients, and offer the care and support needed for those traits to bloom.Imagine our kids' nature as a bucket waiting to be filled with experiences, knowledge, and love. It's up to us to add to that bucket—to nurture their nature—by surrounding them with positive influences, guiding them with values, and offering opportunities for exploration and growth. Each interaction, every conversation, and every moment spent together adds up.Parenting is a learning journey—one where we adapt and grow alongside our kids. So, friends, let's keep filling their buckets with love, encouragement, and experiences that help them become the best versions of themselves. Episode Highlights: Life's too short to take it too seriously.How much can our nurturing impact their nature?Understanding our children's nature.Nurturing their gifts.Focusing on inner workings vs final results.Filling their buckets.Don't get caught up in the rat race.Truly seeing our kids for who they are.Links Mentioned in Episode/Find More on Ryan and Shannon:Follow Shannon on InstagramFollow Ryan on InstagramVisit Shannon's WebsiteThis show has been produced by Adkins Media Co.

What is the key to instilling healthy eating habits in our families?With so many options and our ‘on-the-go' lifestyles, eating healthy can be overwhelming. As we navigate school drop off, work, school pick up, appointments, and our kiddos' practices, we often don't have much time to think about what we're going to eat for dinner.. And with fast food restaurants on seemingly every corner, it can be easy just to give in and make the ‘easy choice'.So, how do we plan ahead and set ourselves up to make healthy choices? Well, the truth is, there are many different strategies and plans that work for different families… but in this episode, we will share some of our favorite ways to eat healthy while also making allowances for the occasional sugary treat.Healthy habits and eating is all about balance. When we master the mindset of ‘food is fuel', it makes healthy choices much easier. So sit back and relax, and let us share some of our favorite tips and advice to help you raise healthy kids.Remember - it's never too late to start..

What is your parenting style?We know there are so many different styles of parenting, and there isn't one universal style that works for everyone. Every child is different and has their own unique needs. Around here, we've found that gentle parenting is the most beneficial for our family.So what is gentle parenting, really? And why does it work? We believe that some forms of discipline promote fear, and fear never leads to good behavior. When kiddos feel safe, loved, and respected, they are more likely to behave. Positive reinforcement really goes a long way!In our episode today, we are sharing more about our parenting style, some tricks we've found that work for us, and some good old-fashioned encouragement to parents. At the end of the day, you know what's best for you and your kiddos. God chose you to be their parents, and that means you are the best one for the job! Episode Highlights: Encouraging Moms to lean into gentle parenting.Discipline is not punishment.Kids don't behave out of fear.There are different types of parenting.We aren't defined by our past.It's never too late to make a change.Kids need to be kids, and adults need to be adults.What example are we trying to set?Investing in our kids.The Positive Parenting Bench.Letting your kids know you're hearing them.Links Mentioned in Episode/Find More on Ryan and Shannon:Follow Shannon on InstagramFollow Ryan on InstagramVisit Shannon's WebsiteThis show has been produced by Adkins Media Co.

Are you struggling? You're not alone.Dear friend - the reality is - everyone struggles. We all face adversity in life, but it's how we respond to it that sets us up for success. It is in life's greatest challenges that we discover our true strength and resilience. Someone in our online community recently reached out to us and asked, ‘Do you ever struggle?'. It is important to remember that you are just seeing others' ‘highlight reels' on social media. When we engage in constant comparison, we often measure ourselves against unrealistic standards. People tend to showcase their best moments, highlight reels, and successes on social media. This can create an illusion that everyone else is leading a perfect and joyful life while our own lives fall short.In this episode, we are touching on struggles and ways that we can be intentional about how we get through these rough times.  We share about finding someone to talk to, leaning into our struggles, and changing our perspective. It is often in times of struggle that we learn some of life's greatest lessons. So, no matter where you are today or what is going on in your life - we want to encourage you. You are not alone, sweet friend.Episode Highlights: People are struggling all around us.If you're not struggling, you're not human.Comparison is the thief of joy.Finding someone to talk to.Leaning into our struggles.Our thoughts are powerful.Changing our perspective.Don't be afraid to change.Resilience is built when you feel safe.Serving others fills your bucket.Never underestimate the power of a kind gesture.Links Mentioned in Episode/Find More on Ryan and Shannon:Follow Shannon on InstagramFollow Ryan on InstagramVisit Shannon's WebsiteThis show has been produced by Adkins Media Co.

What could you live without?Today, we are diving back into the topic of minimalism. Minimalizing the amount of things we have has played a huge role in creating room for things that matter more to us. It has created more freedom to travel and spend quality time with family.That storage unit or room in your house is likely a burden to you. There is a balance between keeping sentimental items and flat-out keeping everything. In this episode, we will share about how we decide what to keep and what to get rid of and answer some of our community's most asked questions about our lifestyle.The bottom line is this - You have the control over your things. We can either let our things dictate our lives, or we can take hold of the reins and get rid of what is burdening us. It is so freeing to let go of things that have been piling up and causing more stress in the grand scheme of things. We invite you on this journey with us to discover how embracing simplicity, decluttering your life, and focusing on what truly matters can lead to enhanced mental clarity, reduced stress, increased freedom & flexibility, and a more intentional and fulfilling lifestyle.Episode Highlights: Less is more.Family keeping everything.Stuff adds to your stress.Do you keep awards & keepsakes?Freedom and flexibility of not having a lot of stuff.Navigating gifts from family & friends.Valuing experiences over things.Links Mentioned in Episode/Find More on Ryan and Shannon:Follow Shannon on InstagramFollow Ryan on InstagramVisit Shannon's WebsiteThis show has been produced by Adkins Media Co.
