What Have You Learned From Your Story?

“You live and you learn.”

But, what does that truly mean? Is learning the same as living? Is living the same as learning? What is the connection between the two?

Do all of us have the capacity to learn from life circumstances? Or is learning a skill that’s available only to a few of us?

How do you know if you have learned something?

Does everything in life have a lesson behind it?

Join us August 27th, 11:45 AM EST, as we, Scott Mason, Casey Berman, Dorothy Oger and Oleg Lougheed, explore ways to learn from life circumstances, the importance of beginners mindset, and other related topics.

Understanding and Eliminating Incivility

Incivility is on the rise, specifically in the workplace, whether everyone may realize it or not, so what can we do to get people to acknowledge it and end it?

Sejal Thakkar discusses how to recognize acts of incivility, what to do if you witness such behavior, and how to understand what behavior is acceptable. By educating ourselves on incivility, we can help create a more respectful and welcoming work environment for everyone, and we can also use this knowledge outside of the workplace.

Conversations About Race

Some may find it difficult or uncomfortable to talk about race, but why does it seem this way? While it may come down to understanding the history or developing a common language to use, having conversations about race should be something we are not afraid of.

In this episode, April discusses the internalized conceptions we have about race, where they come from, and what we can do to alter or reframe them. Although we may not believe in the conceptions that have been passed down from generations, they are still ingrained in us, and it is up to us to educate ourselves in order to deviate from them.

How Breathwork Benefits The Mind, Body And Spirit

It’s something we’re constantly doing without even thinking about it: breathing. Although we may not realize it, being aware of our breathwork can help relax our nervous system and our state of mind, and Mark Guay describes ways in which we can control it in order to achieve this state of being.

Guay goes into detail on various types of breathwork that can help us with anxiety, clearing our minds, and getting a good control of our emotions. Through methodic breathing and meditation, we can learn ways to help with our focus, and a unique way of breathing can even cause us to gain a new perspective on things happening in our lives.

How Can Juggling Improve Your Memory, Focus, Movement And Vision?

This week's conversation features Zander Phelps.

Back in 2010 while doing experimental facescaping, Zander came across the "half 'n half" which lead into a fit of self-laughter. Driven by the desire to spread warm fuzziness, he was prompted to wear his newly acquired style into Hanalei Town.

Walking around inspired others to join in the merriment thus changing their day and potentially their lives. Recognizing that this simple jester could change so much so easily, Zander agreed to continue to display his facial art.

He made a deal with himself, the day that he went out in public and did not receive the good vibes, he would shave it clean. So far, it has held up its end of the deal and promoted jollification everywhere.

Opening up many doors, the face-do lets people know that Zander does not take himself too seriously.

The Importance Of "Hello"

We may not understand the significance of a simple word we use every day of our lives: “hello.” It’s a word that initiates communication, acknowledges a person, and can make someone’s day in the easiest way.

In this episode, Teresa Quinlan discusses the importance of our words, the different ways in which we say “hello,” and the meanings behind them. While it may be an unspoken expression some of us take for granted, it is a word that carries so much power and can affect us in ways we didn’t even realize before.
