CONVERSATIONS WITH CALVIN WE THE SPECIES hosted by CalvinSchwartz

Meet KRYSTLE HICKMAN; “Firstly, much thanks to Nanda Dyssouat Coriolis Public Relations in Los Angeles for the connection with KrystleHickman. The initial absorption of Krystle’s profile was staggering. Heraccomplishments and career are beyond. (a favorite word of exclamation). Forexample. National Geographic Explorer, TEDx Speaker, Artist, CommunityScientist, and Photographer. But what resonated with me was Krystle’s new book,The ABCs of California’s Native Bees (on Amazon). She is a pre-eminent Bee expert.And bees have been on my environmental conscience for a long time. We needbees. Krystle is passionate, delightful, insightful, devoted, caring, andwondrously inspirational. This was a rare and precious interview. We talkedabout her book, and even AI, and the daily habits of rare native bees, savingbees, her breathtaking photography, sometimes waiting a week to photograph arare bee, TikTok, Jurassic Park (not necessarily the movie!), and so much more.Love off topic. Krystle was gracious, replete with endless knowledge andexperience. And perhaps to be continued. And our synchronicity: besides my loveof bees and showing Krystle a jar of honey, I recently purchased from Kuwait,we’re both graduates of Big Ten schools. Nebraska and Rutgers. This interviewwas as good as it gets.”  Calvin

CONVERSATIONS WITH CALVIN WE THE SPECIES hosted by CalvinSchwartz

Meet JODI PAVLOCK. “Our interview was meant to be. We met afew months ago at the New York Book Festival Awards Ceremony on Second Avenue.Jodi’s book, ‘Jekyll Can’t Hyde’ won honorable mention. On my way to catch acab, I congratulated her. In those few seconds, her riveting personalityengulfed. We talked about an interview. I’ve been around many blocks on myjourney. Not to my recollection, have I met a more poignant, expressive,honest, brilliant, and emotional person shrouded in the aura of a victim ofnarcissism. And the concept and understanding of that word are still vague. Youdon’t go into a drug store and buy a cure for narcissism. Her brillianceemanated throughout our hour. Just some thoughts and words to ensnare. Arelationship is becoming toxic and controlling. Empath. Certified NarcissisticAbuse Recovery Coach. Deception. Self-discovery. Survival guide. Manipulation.I took deep breaths often. Heavy stuff. Her journey through two intense, failedrelationships. And maybe even a movie one day. There’s more to Jodi. A singer.Real estate. So much honesty. So grateful I had to catch a cab.” Calvin

CONVERSATIONS WITH CALVIN WE THE SPECIES hosted by CalvinSchwartz

Meet DR TARA CHALAKANI; “I marvel at the connectivity of theuniverse. Reasons to believe. Two weeks ago, I sent out a group email tohighlight fascinating interviews I’ve done on Conversations with Calvin. DrTara Chalakani replied. I interviewed Dr Tara, the CEO of Preferred BehavioralHealth Group here in New Jersey, about mental health several times. She hasthirty years of experience. Each time, she amazes with her depth, grasp,caring, and devotion. For me, a corporate 25-year veteran, few CEOs are hands-on,involved, and eager to give back as Dr. Tara. And mental health is a globalpandemic. Then a light bulb went incandescent. To talk to Dr. Tara about AI andmental health. It’s consumptive. All through our everyday lives. We don’t graspit because our world is changing every fifteen minutes. Scary. Dr Tara was soeager to chat. And we put this together fast. It’s important. It’s ourwell-being and our lives. And it’s here and growing. Rarely do I invoke the“wow” word in one of my descriptions. Dr. Tara just got three “wows” for thischat on Mental Health, Promise, Illusion, and Responsibility. As I quipped, alittle less TikTok dancers and a little more Dr. Tara.  Have a nice day.” Calvin

CONVERSATIONS WITH CALVIN WE THE SPECIES hosted by CalvinSchwartz

MEET ABBY GRACE: “My most poignant, warm, introspective, andemotional interview (all these journalism years) with singer-songwriter AbbyGrace (in hospice care) and her new record label, producer Jesse Roads. Nearthe end of our interview, Abby said, “I’ve seen too many miracles not tobelieve in them.”  Hours later, this isstill reverberating. Thanks to Kayden Gordon for bringing Abby into my visionand now, soul. Today was a privilege to spend time with a remarkable soul, AbbyGrace. Last night I listened to her music and words for hours (her websitebelow). Totally enamored for real. Meaningful, provocative, gleeful, abundantlife, and elevation. As I’ve come to learn, Abby has lived a life with a guitarin her hands. Even now, in hospice care, she continues to shine with the samewarmth, humor, and musical magic that touch hearts. My time with Abby was notonly about music-it is about courage, creativity, and resilience, and thisbeautiful way she shares her light with the world. And Abby mentioned Peter,Paul, and Mary, which sealed the deal for me. Abby is a gift. You’ll see.”Calvin

BIO: Bio:  “Puttingthe living room back in the music” – Emmylou Harris

When Abby heard this saying, it spoke to her heart and soul,and her belief that music is made to be shared. Coupled with a strong visionthat music can bring peace to the world, her songs are her contribution to thiscause to which she is deeply committed. 

Growing up in a small town in Northern Canada, Abby didn’thave a lot of access to the world of music and only latently decided to followher musical passion in 2013.  She taughtherself how to play guitar- a hand-built cigar box model to boot, and heroriginal material is unfailingly upbeat, jaunty and celebratory, projectinginclusive messages of hope and joy.

On a visit to Nashville in 2014, Abby was discovered in alittle honky tonk bar open mic by Rojo Marlowe, who loved her songs and askedif she wanted to record them.  Always upfor fun and adventure, she said sure, and a recording artist was born.   Abby’s debut release was the Abby’s AmblingsEP (2016) The songs attracted the attention of circles within Nashville’spublishing and songwriting communities, and in turn that of Paul Bezooyen ofThe Hermit’s Music on Vancouver Island, BC.

As a consequence of The Hermits involvement, a second EP,Senses of the Sea -August  2017 was

Rare to find a journey from engineering in collegeto expertise in the alkaloids of the plant Kratom. You never heard of it? It isprecious in its healing powers. Not so rare. Perhaps up to twenty millionAmericans may use Kratom. It’s beautiful to be devoted to healing andwell-being and doing something right. Alexander Karp helped birth ETHA NaturalBotanicals, where quality and assurance are part of their being. I know aboutthat. From my Pharmacy days. Alexander’s depth of understanding of Kratom'smechanics is amazing; Well beyond being a merchant. He meticulously describesall the uses and reasons for this precious plant, which has been around for along time. He cares. Therefore, a very special interview.
