Marisa Renee Lee: Making A Stubborn Commitment to Hope

What does it take to keep hoping when hope keeps breaking your heart? Tami Simon speaks with Marisa Renée Lee—New York Times bestselling author of Grief Is Love and Waiting for Dawn: Living with Uncertainty—about what she calls a "ruthless, stubborn commitment to hope": the conviction that something better is coming, and the willingness to do whatever is necessary to make it so, even in the darkest seasons. This conversation offers genuine transmission—not just concepts about awakening, but the palpable presence of realized teachers exploring the growing edge of spiritual understanding together.

Just One Question | Martha Beck: What Do I Do At Three In the Morning?

We've all been there — wide awake at three in the morning, brain running the instant we wake up and no chance of getting back to sleep. This week we hear from Martha Beck and her answer when Tami asks the question: "What Do I Do At Three In the Morning?" Martha shares her expertise on anxiety, calming our nervous systems, and why beds are just the best.

Ilia Delio: A Cyborg Christian on the God Revolution We Need Now

What if the God you've been taught to believe in is the very thing that’s keeping you from finding God? Tami Simon speaks with Sister Ilia Delio—Franciscan theologian, scientist, and author of The Not Yet God—about the evolutionary vision of Teilhard de Chardin, why monotheism is giving way to a new religious consciousness, and how AI, far from threatening our humanity, might be the unexpected catalyst for a God revolution. This conversation offers genuine transmission—not just concepts about awakening, but the palpable presence of realized teachers exploring the growing edge of spiritual understanding together.

Just One Question | Rainn Wilson: Why Are You NOT an Atheist?

In this clip from Insights at the Edge, Tami asks Rainn Wilson — Emmy-nominated actor, author of Soul Boom, and devoted Bahá'í — why he never became an atheist. His answer moves from humor to philosophy to genuine vulnerability, landing on an idea that surprised even him: that "the Great Mystery" might be enough. A rare, honest conversation about faith from someone who had every reason to stay quiet about it.
