The first episode of season three of the podcast Common Thread introduces the topic of conversation for the season. I am curious about what we are responding to when it is an innate desire to follow the thread of what is most important to us on a human and heart level. Not only is this inner guided. The more you respond the more you know, without being told, all-is-one. This is not a benign concept. Knowing is responding in kind. The sum of everything considered unprecedented has brought us to the threshold of a great unknown. It is important to explore a source of inner guidance and discover our larger whole when or if all else fails.

Inga-Mette (IM) Stenseth believes creativity is a human life-force. Her life moves to the rhythm of intersecting fields such as the fashion industry, technology, economics, culture, the Alexandria Library in Egypt, climate education, and creative problem solving. Each unique area of interest expands beyond its own objectives when viewed a catalyst to a deeper appreciation for life and is worth protecting. This can only become possible if concerns about copyright, competition, who gets credit for what sheds its value system and liberates the butterfly who is a symbol for love. I asked IM how she holds onto her thread? “I stay anchored in my smile!” was her answer.

Shauna gives us a heart-warming compass of joy. “We are so ingrained with shoulds we no longer hear our inner voice.” For many of us the idea of having more joy is a fearful thought. Why? It doesn’t measure up to the many unrealistic standards which we hold ourselves to. Shauna supports neuro diverse women, who struggle with acceptance more than others, but her reflections on what is most important to her on a human and heart level weaves a common thread. Her joyful message is to create your kind life!

Kathy learned the rules of economics but through the lens of Earth. Her thread is to remember ourselves to the garden in her lifetime. Kathy’s background covers the economics of the environment; sustainable forestry; fishing; populations; and Superfund Cleanup. What is most important to Kathy is to cultivate awareness we are members of this earthy paradise. If we loosen our boundaries we may discover we need each other and by doing so, find the edge of our interdependence.

The “key” is to see, hear, and value the human thread which connects us with others and the natural world. Caring about and for relationships reflects a uniquely feminine concern like hierarchical systems tend to be masculine. Social pioneer and mother of three, Tina Shattuck, weaves a compelling story how she followed her impulse and thread to create a framework and container for women. “The only real work I do must be in my zip code,” is an example of how she is acting locally but thinking globally.”  If you are wondering what happens when you say “yes” to what is most important to you on a human and heart level, Tina is a trailblazer of a spiritual human purpose which is the (feminine) key to peace.

Sheila’s question: Is the world ready for peace inspired the theme for season 2 of the podcast. She turns a proclamation into a personal question when she observes, there is no condition that we face personally which isn’t also the human condition. The common human thread could be a vital force wanting to live life through us! Our unique response, therefore, is on behalf of others. “Your depths are the lights of the world.”

INTRODUCTION:
The theme for season 2
A friend of mine asked: Is the world ready for peace? At first, I thought this was odd when most of us long for more connection in our families, communities, countries, and in the world. Yet she knew something was missing—something in good faith to ease frayed tensions, a sign of goodwill, a gesture of sincerity. Season 2 of The Common Thread podcast relooks at the 4 questions from Season 1 as revealing a missing spiritual human purpose. Can peace really be legislated or negotiated politically when it is a bonding process between individuals? When you honor the common human thread, it becomes peace. Acknowledging relationships is the first step that very few people see—or truly care about. Connections influence unseen states of grace. There is no hammering out a peace-deal. Bonding creates the conditions for reconciliation. It’s the cocoon and not the unknown answer. Season 2 listens carefully to personal reflections on: What is most important to me on a human and heart level? Why is it vital I respond? What are the challenges when I put this purpose first? And what wisdom can I share from my experiences? Hidden are the many ways everyday people are sowing the seeds of peace—weaving its cocoon with the common human thread.

Renée is a farmer and artist who intuits we are Nature. Her assemblages of natural objects symbolically carry her hidden story out into the open. Its theme belongs to a special category when a definitive direction and goal are unknown. If you are Nature, then your life is ever evolving into something new. Small beings are those whose invisible work weaves the common thread of mutual sustainability. Renée’s invisible work includes elevating the tenuous edge of vulnerability and impermanence we all face. Why? Love is a raw human potential—nested deep.

Tess takes an honest look at what is most important to her and discovered it is not a dream-job but a realm where we all meet. She was sexually abused by her grandfather and when her mother would not listen, she made her way in the world alone. She refused to become bitter and instead became a writer and filmmaker. When a close acquaintance was in the hospital dying of COVID-19 she transformed monetizing her talents into imagining, like a movie, a frame-by-frame recovery of her friend. Healing is what is most important to Tess. She orchestrated a circle of people on Zoom who for 75 days imagined the impossible. John walked out of the hospital and has regained full health. Tess’s story affirms when the heart is open it becomes possible to imagine there is only ONE OF US and we all come from the same place. Honestly…there could not be a better perspective today which expresses a common human thread.
