Interview with Buddhist teacher, management consultant and executive director of the non-profit organization Unfettered mind Ken McLeod and a track by Uppsala-based, Brazilian-born Rafael Oliveira.

What makes you be in love with life? How do you translate your values into the everyday choices? What makes this life meaningful to you? Interview with Eric Maisel on the art of living a meaning-making life, a book tip and a track by Uppsala bound musicians Larry and Fredrik.

I talk with Marian Voigt about what made him quit his well-paid job in Germany and embark on biking trips around Sweden and Australia and how being on the road challenged him.

I speak with Brian Robertson, one of the developers of Holacracy, a fundamentally new organizational model that is based on the principles of dynamic steering. Holacracy views organization as a liberated, differentiated entity with its own purpose in life, rather than as property or extension of the founders. Tune in!

Do you know why zebras don’t get ulcers? Why is the assumption that we are supposed to achieve a 50-50 balance between our life and our work is not only unrealistic but also prevents us from being content with our lives? What keeps us stuck in the places we don't want to be? Interview with Nicola Phillips, who has worked intimately with fear and the different ways of overcoming it since 1981. She is the author of a number of book, the latest of which is "Fear without loating: why life/work balance doesn't matter but you do".

In the second part of the two-part conversation, Susanne Wiigh-Mäsak shares the ideas she had in mind when designing the technology of promession. She hopes that the method, that allows the dead body to become part of life again, will also contribute to how we in the West relate to death and dying.

In one of his gathas, or mindfulness poems, called Gardening, Thich Nhat Hanh writes about the cycle of life, "Earth brings us to life and nourishes us. 
Earth takes us back again.
 We are born and we die with every breath." But how easy is it for earth to take us back? This week I am joined by Swedish biologist and founder of Promessa Organic, Susanne Wiigh-Mäsak. In 1999 Susanne patented promession, the alternative, ecologically-conscious burial method, that supports life even after our death. Listen to Susanne's fascinating story about the path from composting food remains to helping people bring a gift of themselves to earth by becoming part of it.

Do you choose to survive or thrive in the face of hard circumstances? In this second part of the two-part conversation, Andy McLellan and Erica Hamilton share some of the techniques they found useful in coping with the physical and emotional pain on their path of transitioning from surviving to thriving.

I am joined by my friends Andy McLellan, PhD and Erica Hamilton, PhD. Andy and Erica generously share about the most challenging aspects of living with a chronic illness. This first part of the conversation touches upon how our fast-paced life can lead to our disembodiment and pushing ourselves too far, the existing in the world of Western medicine dichotomy between the organic and the functional and how the absence of measurable cause of a medical condition influences the attitude of the medical establishment towards the patients.
