ep.47: ”I had nowhere to look” Practicing Yoga w/o Sight w/ Regina Padilla,

We got together for a catch up and realized we were processing our practice without sight, so we set an intention to go into our yoga routine with a blindfold. This episode dissects how we felt, what we observed from a basic space of self-observation, attention and aliveness.

ep 46: Empower Through Surrender, Lessons for a White Man w/ Eli Flournoy

Eli Flournoy is a businessman, who worked at CNN for 25 years in various roles and has experimented with what he calls, 'servant leadership,' which for him is wholly team focused. And throughout his life he's realized, the System is 'rigged' for him and he's learning over and again to show up better - for Women, for his Black colleagues and friends and it's a lifetime of transforming his power into empowerment, navigating ego and surrender. White Men in America need a story of Surrender. And Eli hopes to lead by example.    Follow Eli at:  LinkedIN:https://www.linkedin.com/in/eliflournoy/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/eliflournoy/]

From October 2016 to July 2017, the battle for Mosul Iraq against ISIS raged. I was there, Meethak al Khatib was there and he was one of our guides, he worked with us messy foreigners and showed us the truth in his country, the beautiful and the damned. Now he's his own journalist, making a name for himself and discovering how to navigate the pitfalls of a country still un-repaired and often forgotten by western countries. I checked in on him. He's an incredible Storyteller and the lessons are about self-reflection and internal understandings - He's translating the war for himself. Join us will you?

ep43: Under Occupation: We Generate Hope from Nothing, w/ Aysar Nasrallah (Gaza)

I met Aysar Naserallah in the heat of the 2014 - 50 day war in Gaza. He worked with journalists and NGOs to translate, transport and help use unfold the destruction of his home land. Today we're still friends and last year when attacks bombarded Gaza again, he left me a haunting message as he moved his family out of their home and only to follow them the next day. So recently I called him up to find out how he's doing, and give us a picture of the struggle and how he keeps hope amid the occupation.  I hope you'll take share podcast w/ your communities and begin to have real conversations about the violence of the oppressed v. the oppressor, so we can begin to translate the wars abroad to our wars at home.    There's more to come. Stay tuned. And thank you for listening. May you find your way to hope - Cheers.    How to follow:  Aysar I/G: https://www.instagram.com/aysar.naserallah/ [https://www.instagram.com/aysar.naserallah/]Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/aysar.naserallah/ [https://www.facebook.com/aysar.naserallah/]2 of the Stories We Worked On Together in 2014~  Gravediggers Killed in Bombinghttps://theworld.org/dispatch/news/regions/middle-east/israel-and-palestine/140824/gaza-gravediggers-cemetery-hamas-crisis [https://theworld.org/dispatch/news/regions/middle-east/israel-and-palestine/140824/gaza-gravediggers-cemetery-hamas-crisis]Gaza's Fisherman Struggle (PASSWORD: gazafish)https://vimeo.com/manage/videos/190442997 [https://vimeo.com/manage/videos/190442997]
