Ben and Laura (his mom) swap stories about church, meditation, dance, and the lost art of a shared Sabbath, tracing how ritual, rest, and community shape attention and belonging. Between memory palaces and eyeglass rants, we look for teachers, practices, and spaces that make patience feel possible.

• growing up Catholic as routine not worship
• memory palaces and extemporaneous hosting
• managing kids in church and small-town community
• Buddhist meditation versus ten-minute sermons
• the value of Sabbath, rest, and ritual
• delayed gratification, good teachers, and momentum
• attention economy pressures on children
• modern parenting empathy and resources
• dance as worship and embodied practice
• lenses over frames and choosing substance

You heard it here first, everybody. Tune in next time to That’s a Good Question.
