Conflict Resolution - with Trace Bell and Tina Olson

Trace Bell joins me for a second time with his partner Tina Olson. We ended up talking a lot about relationships including: steelmanning and boundaries. We talked about the trends we're seeing in the collective and in our own lives. Some of those trends include not getting stuck in the ditches of seeing life as purely positive or negative. Another trend is recognizing the messiness of life and people (including ourselves). You can find Trace on his website here.

The Alchemy of death - with Brandy Anderson

Join Brandy and me for a Halloween special discussing ghosts, demons, and death. We share how our modern culture pushes the natural cycle of death to the margins and how Halloween can be an invitation to contemplate and prepare ourselves for the inevitability of death. We talk about how to view the afterlife and celebrate the holiday appropriately, and not simplify it in a dualistic good or bad category.

An intro to Spiral Dynamics - with Gavin Abeytratne

Gavin joins me to explain the psychological/sociological model of Spiral Dynamics. We explore how the model can be helpful and ways in which it can be distorted. We connect periods of history and people groups with different stages while acknowledging all the stages are within us and can be activated individually.
