  1. AEWCH 285: HOW TO LIVE IN 2025: CONNECT with DEAN SPADE

    13 HR. AGO

    AEWCH 285: HOW TO LIVE IN 2025: CONNECT with DEAN SPADE

    This is the third in a series of episodes on HOW TO LIVE IN 2025, focusing on the thoughts, feelings, and actions we need to thrive, develop, create, and resist. At the end of each of these episodes, I’ll offer an exercise - a thought exercise, spiritual exercise, or practical exercise - that brings an experiential dimension to what I and the shows guests talk about. This episode’s theme is CONNECTAnd my guest is organizer, activist, and writer, DEAN SPADE Our disconnection from each other is the negative space that power thrives in. It's a void that threatens to overtake us with its heavy unfeeling emptiness. Connection is the remedy, but more than that: it's the great meaning we all seek. The connections we form with each other can create networks of mutual aid, solidarity, safety, love, pleasure, and happy engagement with the challenges of our time. Dean's new book, Love in a F*cked-Up World: How to Build Relationships, Hook Up, and Raise Hell Together offers a powerful look at connection. And it gives everything its title promises: a wealth of practical steps you can take to learn how to live well in this world through what you learn in relationship with others. It’s a book about relationships that takes nothing for granted from the dominant narratives that rule our lives. Rather than trying to fit society as it is, the book asks us what it would look like if our relationships were built out of our desires, including our desire to create a better word through better relationships.

    This is the first in a series of episodes on How To Live in 2025, focusing on the thoughts, feelings, and actions we need to thrive, develop,  create, and resist.

    AEWCH 280: LISA ROMERO / HOW DOES YOUR INNER LIFE DIRECT WORLD EVENTS?

    Our inner lives do matter, more than ever, in this moment. But how do they matter, and how can we offer them up to the tasks of our time? And what if some of us get those inner conditions properly oriented to the spiritual work of the world we're in, but most people don't? Will any of it make a difference? To discuss this, I welcomed author and teacher Lisa Romero back to the show.Lisa and I talked about these themes before on the show, on AEWCH 257, but now we develop them more deeply here, particularly in relation to how the world is unfolding.

  7. AEWCH 279: THE FEELING OF POLITICAL DEATH

    11/13/2024

    AEWCH 279: THE FEELING OF POLITICAL DEATH

    Friends, In the wake of Donald Trump’s second election win, amongst those who didn’t vote for him at least, calls for mourning and grieving have been issued all around. The idea being that something has been lost, that it may be irretrievable, that a brokenness must be felt and that we should honor that feeling. But what if instead of making room to mourn, we notice that we’ve already made plenty of room for feeling — too much, in fact — and what if all that expression of feeling has become part of the problem? On this episode, I look into the problems with our feelings about politics when they don't meet our thinking and action correctly. Rather than make lots of predictions about what's next. or try to figure out who to blame, or even assume that anyone who listens to the show voted one way or the other, I consider 1. The problems with the intense expressions of emotion. 2. How Trump was elected again anyway (with as little speculation as possible). 3. Why the political realm is dead in its current form. 4. Where we can draw strength from to create a new political life that can adapt to individuals and economies. 5. What to do about the fact that a lot of people are our "enemies." 6. The path that we're on in the world and in our own development. Together and in each of our individualities, we will create a new way.
