  • The Law of Indifference

    Send us Fan Mail

    There is a vast difference between reacting and responding. The law of indifference helps us develop a non-resistance to the appearance of negativity, so we can learn to be unbothered by external conditions, or to respond to them instead of reacting.

  • Brief Summary of the Enneagram

    Send us Fan Mail

    The Enneagram is over 2,000 years old and originated as a Sufi oral tradition to explain the human personality and its journey toward integration and disintegration. This podcast is a very brief summary of the 9 Enneagram Types. See my other podcasts for further information, or contact me at [email protected].

  • Did You Want Me to Listen or Did You Want Feedback?

    Send us Fan Mail

    Years ago, an Al-Anon sponsor listened to me unload, paused, and asked one question: did you just want me to listen, or did you want feedback? I didn't know the answer. This episode is about everything that question opened up. Growing up in a family where everyone weighed in on everything, why well meant advice can still feel like criticism, and how kindness can quietly become a way of running the show. Plus a few simple tools for taking your hands off the wheel.

  • Alex’s View in 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    In October of 2011, I went to Brooklyn to meet my grandson Alexander when he was two weeks old. I have been blessed to live near him in Los Angeles since he was three and a half. I had the blessing of listening to him, now at fourteen and a half, share his views and reflect on himself. He passes along great tips for living.
