    24/06/2016 Duration: 31min

    Justice. Peace. Love. The lessons of Jesus lead to these three things. The ways of our world? Not so much. I sat down with Dr. Jim McDonald, President of San Francisco Theological Seminary, Rev.

  • SC 30 Gender Bathrooms, Rape Culture, and Other Fun Topics

    10/06/2016 Duration: 30min

    I’ve held off podcasting about the gender bathroom fiasco for a while thinking all had been said. However, since hearing about Brock Turner’s verdict of serving 6 months in county jail after raping a woman because anything longer may “damage his future” – I figured it was time to put my two cents in the mix. […]

    06/05/2016 Duration: 26min

    I really need to get to Alaska. I’ve said this before, after interviewing Iditarod musher,Debbie Moderow.  Now after talking with author, Brendan Jones, the pull is even stronger.

    25/03/2016 Duration: 41min

    The Enneagram is rocking my world. I’m slow to catch up with this personality profile craze. I went my whole adult life explaining myself with the Meyers Briggs terminology ENFJ. Surely all personality profiles are similar, yes? No. In the short time I’ve known about the 9 types of the Enneagram, I’ve learned so much more […]

  • SC 18 Amy Zellmer ~ Brain Injury Awareness Month

    04/03/2016 Duration: 26min

    I reached out to Amy last year after reading her Huffington Post article 5 Things Every TBI Survivor Wants You To Understand.   I didn’t know the acronym for Traumatic Brain Injury, but I knew the symptoms about which she wrote. As a stroke survivor, my disability is labeled an acquired brain injury and not a TBI, though I […]

  • SC 15 Debbie Clarke Moderow – Fast Into The Night

    12/02/2016 Duration: 37min

    Sometimes you think you’ll know what a book will be about and it ends up being completely different.

I didn’t know I’d take away lessons […]

  • SC 13 Can You Be Colorblind? A Conversation with Cliff and Diana Chappell and Matt O’Donel About White Privilege and Racism

    29/01/2016 Duration: 55min

    Black. White. Brown. Do you see the color of people’s skin? Or are you “colorblind”? If you answered “colorblind”, I’m willing to bet you are Caucasian. There’s a whole world of racism out there. To deny it is to bury your head in the sand. If we truly want racism to be ancient history, it’s […]

  • SC 12 Water 1st International with Molly Briscoe

    22/01/2016 Duration: 23min

    What do you think about water? Do you think about water? What’s in your mind as you stand under the shower for 20 minutes, or you let the water run until the temperature is just right, or when you forgo the tap for a $3.99 bottle of H2O? If you’re like me – you probably […]
