The GoodBeing Podcast

Part 3 in our series looks at the forces, both internal and external, that make it hard for us to respond to and solve climate change. We also hear from professionals on the coping strategies and skills we can employ to help manage climate anxiety when it feels overwhelming.

In part 2 of our 6-part series on the intersection of climate change and mental health, we look at the different ways we become aware of climate change, and the role that social media and our media diets have at shaping how we think about or understand climate change. We also look at how rural and urban people may experience climate change differently, and why learning about climate change can be uniquely challenging for young people.

Consumers, investors, and top talent are increasingly looking for the same thing - to feel good about who they do business with. The businesses of tomorrow's economy make society better through the problems they solve and services they provide. But what does "better" really mean? How do we find a purpose and mission that people can feel connected to? This talk discusses how we can ask better questions and tell better stories while confronting challenges such as climate change, inequality, and discrimination.

We all experience difficulties in life, and one of the most common is managing our own minds. I chat with psychotherapist, writer, podcaster, and radio host Sarah B. Simpson about curiosity and creativity, the relationship between psychology and spirituality, the pitfalls and benefits of social media, and why you should walk barefoot on the grass everyday.

For this first episode of Season 2, I speak a little more about GoodBeing as a project beyond this podcast, and why I think wellness is an intrinsic aspect of sustainability. I also talk about why a worthy goal of society is to help us be and feel more "human".

How often do we take time to actual digest and process all of the information we're exposed to every day? How often do we allow ourselves to truly slow down and take our time with things, not allowing the pressure of our fast-paced lives to erode our sense of presence? Let's talk about why this important and practice with a short guided meditation.

Is there a word more overused and unclear as Love? What do we really mean by the word Love? How does romantic love differ from brotherly love? What do people mean when they say God is Love? Join me as we unpack some of these questions, learning from writers such as Erich Fromm and Ram Dass.

The most helpful phrase that I have found in my meditation journey is "begin again". The idea that we can always renew our intentions at any moment can help us not to give in to feelings of frustration, boredom, or many other emotions that keep us from persevering in the things that we want to. Join me as I go for a walk and share some thoughts on this simple but powerful idea.

What is wisdom? And how is it different from knowledge? This is something that I've been fascinated with for a long time. It seems to me like our society contains a lot of knowledge, and yet lacks wisdom somehow. The internet has democratized access to knowledge, but where and how do we cultivate wisdom? Let's talk about it.
