Start times and Segments:

[0:00:35] What’s On Your Mind: Julie and John discuss an article: “What the longest study on human happiness found is a key to a good life”, by Robert Waldinger and Marc Schulz. There is a strong co-relationship between deep relationships and wellbeing. Taking time to reflect on relationships is rewarding.

[0:12:32] Expanding Minds Interview: We ask Chef Kay Miller about food in the context of respecting the environment. Our discussion touches physical, environmental, social and economic wellness.⁠ We have all vegetables, fruits, spices at our disposal these days. We’ve never been in a position like this in all of history, yet there’s constantly this discussion on food insecurity. Food is expensive. We have very little time. Home cooked meals are more expensive, more time consuming, but vastly more nutritious for you. However, it’s more difficult to prepare and afford them. We need to find ways to overcome this. We need to move back to more simple roots, looking at more sustainable practices, such as companion planting, replenishing the soil.

[0:28:12] Adventures of the Starving Artist: Cameron’s friend Meghant is working on a cool sound design project.

[0:32:19] Move That Body: 6 tips to motivate you to keep working out regularly. A social media post found on “verywell”.

[0:37:51] Running Popup: John finished his run feeling good while thinking about Canadian voices he enjoys hearing.

[0:39:06] Flipside of the Coin: John pulls another from his quote list, this time by Sigmund Freud: “One day in retrospect, the years of struggle will strike you as the most beautiful”. We talk about that being our experience.
