Talk, Unleashed

Aloka the Peace Dog


Listen Later

Boy do I wish the episode were an actual interview with Aloka. 

No doubt he’d have magnificent wisdom to share.

Who’s Aloka? Great question. If you didn’t follow the recent Walk for Peace - he’s the dog who accompanied the Venerable Monks on their journey. They found him on another walk - that one in India. He was a stray and now he lives with Bhikkhu Pannakara at their Temple in Fort Worth, TX.

In one of his talks to the public, Pannakara spoke of Aloka, what his name means, and what the story of his coming to be with them in the first place means in the big picture.

That’s what this episode is about.

In a world where what passes for radical honesty usually means someone is just letting things fly outta their pie-hole without much care for others, it’s time for radically authentic conversation. Conscious communication is simple, but often isn’t easy. That’s why Cathy Brooks created Talk, Unleashed – a weekly podcast of radically honest conversation about — everything. Whether her own musings or in conversation with industry leaders, each episode invites curiosity. 

Curiosity not about what people do, but why they do it. Who they are and what makes them tick. It’s about digging underneath to reveal the thing that is most true - that we are more alike than we are not. A mix of solo episodes where Cathy shares her insights and experience or Cathy engaged in conversation with fascinating humans doing amazing things. No matter the format - it’s unvarnished, radically honest and entirely unleashed. 

This podcast compliments Unleashed Leadership, the coaching business through which Cathy works with symphony orchestras, corporate clients, and individuals to help them unleash and untether their leadership and connect with others in a way that truly engages.
