We’re back!

On the premiere episode of season two, I’m joined by James ‘two snakes’ Stovall for a chat about his spiritual path, his podcast “Around Grandfather Fire”, and a bit about his role as spiritual dad. Melissa Welsh performs a beautiful, most appropriate original song called “Elements” at the end of the episode. And, I make my debut as a vocalist in the chant “we are one with the infinite sun”, and original recording, although I do not take credit for writing the lyrics.

So much gratitude going out to James and Melissa for being a part of Wider Circles!!!

On this episode of Wider Circles, I have the distinct pleasure of sitting down with Ted Jauw for some story telling, along with a trip around the world- and then some, a absolutely delightful conversation you surely don’t want to miss.

Many thanks to Ted for sharing his time, energy, wisdom and words with us! I can hardly wait for his next visit...
