GENUINE, the podcast

Co-hosts Sarah Lipton and Dr. Carlton Green converse with amazing humans from around the world who are sparking with kindness and igniting with creativity and inspiration because NOW is the time to show up and be who you are.

    16: Learning to Trust Yourself

    Sarah Lipton and Dr. Carlton E. Green welcome you to another episode of GENUINE, the podcast! We cannot be fully genuine unless there is some measure of trust. So the journey of remembering how to be genuine dovetails with us learning to trust ourselves. Today, Carlton and Sarah introduce a diverse group of people who all think about things deeply and are willing to be open and vulnerable in sharing their stories. They pull back the curtain on the topic of trust and dive into what it means to trust yourself. The world feels tumultuous right now for many different reasons, and there has been a lot of uncertainty lately. Covid has been a common experience for everyone, and that environment has presented many new questions and provided many new and exciting opportunities. However, when new opportunities arise and we need to pivot, many of us don’t know what we are supposed to do. Some of us might look to others for help in understanding things more clearly or figuring out what the next step is going to be. Sarah and Carlton encourage you to relax, feel into your body and vulnerabilities, and stay present with this moment. Pause and allow yourself to be. Know that you are safe wherever you are. Show highlights: Dr. David Rivera is our first guest for today. Many things have gone into his journey of learning to trust himself. Aaron Lurin feels that trusting himself is the only thing he can do with 100% confidence. Amy Lepage’s approach to helping people trust themselves involves deep listening and building awareness. Dr. Corey Capers had some difficult family dynamics. He has had to navigate different worlds as a biracial person. Learning to trust himself was a complicated and primal challenge. Yvonne Hawkins experienced sexual harassment and sexual abuse. It disrupted her sense of safety, and healing from it was the key to her learning to trust herself. Sarah Galbraith and Sarah Lipton connected around a piece she wrote about caring for the earth. She talks about dealing with our stuff and living into our experience as a way to learn to trust ourselves. Tiffany Thomas loves to serve people. The book, A Course in Miracles changed her life. It taught her to use love rather than pain to learn to trust herself. About our guests: Dr. David Rivera  is a friend Carlton met while at graduate school. He is an Associate Professor of Counselor Education at Queen’s College in New York. He is also a scholar, author, researcher, consultant, and leader in his field.

    15: The Promise of Spring

    Dr. Carlton E. Green and Sarah Lipton welcome you to this latest episode of GENUINE, the podcast! If you are anything like them, you could be feeling a little drained and fatigued right now. Not only from surviving the pandemic but also from living day-to-day with everything that’s been going on in the news recently. Derek Chauvin was found guilty of the murder of George Floyd last week. Sixteen-year-old Ma'Khia Bryant got shot and killed by police in Columbus, Ohio. And the use of Johnson & Johnson vaccines got put on hold due to the possibility of deadly side effects. Not to mention an increase in suicide mortality rates, mental health diagnoses related to Covid-19, and the mass shootings in the United States in the last month. With all of that going on, Carlton and Sarah decided to check in with you, the listeners, today. In this episode, they offer their thoughts on how to be present amid the turmoil of the times. They reflect on how they are doing and share how they are trying to be. Sarah and Carlton hope you will enjoy hearing their conversation today. They urge you to pause, take a breath, and be present in this moment. And remember that now more than ever is the time to listen, spark, and ignite. Show highlights: Allow yourself to tune into your body breathing. Still your mind, and let your heart stay open. We need to give ourselves permission to check in with ourselves and with each other. Carlton helps people to connect in community and carry the burdens that communities carry. All of that feels quite oppressive for him right now. Sarah sees the opportunity for learning, understanding, and growth in all that has been going on recently. Growth can feel tiring. Sarah talks about living beyond hope. Carlton defines hope. Learning to reside and cope in this place, with all the burdens and pain. And learning to stay with all your experiences, regardless of how painful they are. Sarah and Carlton talk about pain. And letting go. Carlton shares a powerful quote from the book, Against Racism by Valerie Kaur. Stress can be exhausting! Focusing on your breath can help you relax.  Links and resources: Rate, review & share GENUINE, the podcast: https://sarahlipton.com/blog/podcast/intro/ Thanks to Carlton’s Alfred Street Baptist Church Choir for the music: https://www.alfredstreet.org/ Book mentioned: Against Racism by Valerie Kaur

    13: Are We Hardwired? with Dr. Ron Siegel

    Welcome to the latest episode of GENUINE, the podcast! Today, Dr. Carlton E. Green and Sarah Lipton are happy to have the author and teacher, Dr. Ron Siegel, as our guest. Dr. Siegel is an Assistant Professor of Psychology at Harvard Medical School and Board of Directors Faculty Member at the Institute for Meditation and Psychotherapy. Dr. Siegel has a warm, humorous, down-to-earth approach to thinking about how we navigate relationships, which is why we invited him to be a guest on the podcast. His many years of work, study, teaching and writing in the field of psychology and meditation has led him to a clear understanding of how we, as humans, tend to get caught up in cycles of dominance and delusion, and what it takes for us to engage in a life that has wellness, balance, and truth. In this episode, you will hear Dr. Siegel shares his thoughts on what the journey of being genuine entails and how to approach a relationship. We also offer a guided meditation for you to engage in empathy and to rouse compassion. Enjoy the exquisite cello piece composed and performed specially for the podcast by Paul and Melissa Perley. Stay to the end to hear the fabulous genuine definition by Crys Goure, who did the beautiful cover design for Sarah's book "The Harmony of Dissonance.” Carlton and Sarah spent many hours working on this episode and encourage you to take time to soak it up and listen. Show highlights: Dr. Siegel shares from the perspective of his training what the journey of being who we are looks like. The more we can embrace our messiness, the more compassionate we can become toward ourselves. And the more compassionate we are toward ourselves, the more compassionate we can become toward others. There are benefits to rousing the necessary courage to lean into being gentle and vulnerable in our relationships. Dr. Siegel discusses our social dilemma. Dr. Siegel talks about meditating when we are feeling vulnerable or experiencing painful emotions. Leaning into the balance between our vulnerability and executive function when we are in a position of helping someone else. Dr. Siegel explains the fundamental ground of empathy. And empathic resonance. We discuss engaging with compassion versus engaging with empathy. Dr. Siegel talks about what the word 'genuine' means to him. Dr. Siegel discusses our human preoccupation with social dominance. There is value in risking being genuine.

    12: Three Badass Asian American Women

    Welcome to another episode of GENUINE, the podcast. Spark is a word you might hear mentioned frequently in the GENUINE community. For Dr. Carlton E. Green, co-host of the podcast, spark reflects the energy related to an epiphany after he has been reflecting on something, or a shift he feels as a result of some deeper understanding he has gained. Sometimes, spark could even occur as we relate to others. For this episode, Carlton has invited three self-proclaimed "badass" Asian American women to a roundtable discussion, hoping that they might all experience that spark. We live in a time with record levels of hatred and reported hate incidents leveled towards Asian and Asian American people. Many listeners may be aware of the anti-Asian hatred and violence that have come to the fore recently, in the conversations about and the movement for racial justice in the United States lately. According to a recent peer research center survey, three in ten Asian Americans have reported experiencing racist jokes or racial slurs since the pandemic began. In their latest national briefing, StopAAPIhate.org disclosed 3,795 anti-Asian hate incidents between March 2020 and February 2021. And then, in mid-March, a man murdered eight people in the area of Atlanta, Georgia. Six of them were Asian women working in Asian owned businesses. At GENUINE, we are interested in experiences of genuineness. We wanted to talk to some people about how they manage to live through this time in our nation’s history. So we invited three Asian American psychologists to discuss the harm that is happening to people from the Asian diaspora. And to share their expertise because we wanted to hear about their experiences as Asian-American women living through this challenging and overwhelming time. It is important to note that while all our guests identify as Asian American, they are ethnically diverse. Marcia identifies as Chinese American. Cirleen identifies as a multiracial Asian American. And Kim is a Korean American transnational transracial adoptee. We invite you to take a deep breath and soak into this potent episode. Show highlights: Kim, Cirleen, and Marcia talk about how they experienced, in their bodies, the recent news and images about the violence perpetrated against Asian and Asian American folks. Tapping into the heart pain is a significant aspect of the racially violent experience. Marcia, Cirleen, and Kim discuss the effects that anti-Asian racism and violence have been having on communities of people. Particularly on the Asian and Asian American folks. Kim talks about the visibility and the invisibility that Asian and Asian American folks face due to the current situation. There are times when Asian and Asian American folks may not talk about race because the white supremacy culture has set them up not to have a voice. That has become very upsetting, hurtful, and possibly even dangerous to Asian and Asian American folks, particularly women. Our guests discuss what that has felt like for them. Cirleen talks about Asian and Asian American people are being re-traumatized. A fresh public voice is emerging out of this conversation. And that is another hard part of what is happening right now for Asian American women in particular. Asian folks often get regarded as the model minority. Marcia, Cirleen, and Kim talk about what that means to them and how it affects people. Some recent reports in the public sphere have highlighted schisms or violence between black and Asian people. Our guests give their take on the way that gets produced in the news media. Our guests share some strengths that they are drawing on right now to keep putting one foot in front of the other.

    11: Living Truth

    Welcome to another episode of GENUINE, the podcast! Spring is finally taking wing here in Vermont, and because of the frantic pace of everything, we want to offer you this episode, to give you a chance to calm down and just be for a little bit. Today's episode is called "Living Truth" because when when we slow down to be present with our experience, we are, in fact, living truth. We’re talking about being present and mindfulness today. My interview with John Bailes, an old friend and teacher of mine, gives us an introduction to mindfulness. John lives in Somerville, Massachusetts, (which he claims is the hipster capital of the world!) and John is a long-time practitioner of meditation. I have worked closely with him on my own journey, with meditation, mindfulness, awareness, presence, and the deeper elements of how to be human. Now, we invite you to give yourself some time to sit back, relax, listen and just be. Show highlights: John talks about what he does in the world and what he teaches people to do. John explains what it means to be a Zen priest. A large part of John’s work entails helping people open to the vulnerability of being exactly where they are in the present moment. John explains where the dedication of his community lies and what they practice. John talks about the Zen vow to opening and explains how it affects people. John describes what happens in a seven-day intensive session. Empowering people to let go. When we are fully who we are, it allows others to be fully who they are. Most people allow fear to run their lives. And they don’t trust. John explains what he means by saying that we are trapped by the grammar and syntax of our constructed world. John defines the word ‘genuine’. John urges you to follow your own path as it opens before you. It will not be a straight line, nor what you imagined it to be. Being present is being fully alive. Presence has become a buzz-word in the world of psychology today. I lead you through a simple way to be mindful and explain what that will bring to you. It is vital that you feel worthy as a leader.

    10: One Year In: Reconnect With Yourself

    This one is dedicated to you, the Mamas out there! Thank you for joining me for the tenth episode of GENUINE, the podcast. It has been a whole year since we were immobilized by the lockdown and stricken by the panic and fear of the pandemic. A full year has passed since our collective world altered irrevocably, and I hold in my heart all the pandemics of racism that have unfurled amongst so much angst, pain, and grief. It has been a torturous year for all of us. So I will bare my heart and share some of my story with you today. I always wanted kids, and I am super glad that I waited a long time to have them. But I am a writer, a creator, a dreamer, and a visionary. I am constantly burning with the desire and the need to create. So, I never wanted to be with them full-time. Although I am always burning with the awareness of what’s possible, it wasn’t until the enforced presencing with my young family last year that I allowed myself to settle fully into my bones as a mother. And it has been challenging! I have recently been unpacking some of the places I have been stuck, that I didn’t even know about. And I have also tentatively started to trust myself. The only thing that has kept me alive, and allowed me a semblance of sanity over the past year, is the ability to be present. So I invite you to settle down for a moment and travel back in time with me as I open my heart and share the story of how I created the foundation of the work I have devoted my life to do. Show highlights: I never even knew I had fear until I had children. And I never really understood the word anxiety until we hit the pandemic. It is shocking how much it hurts! Worldwide, we have hit more than two-and-a-half million deaths from Covid-19. I can’t shake off the awareness of the racial pandemic our country continues to face. I have been unpacking some of the places I have been stuck and learning to trust myself. I share the story about how my friend and I birthed a potent practice to guide us through the creative process. It created the foundation of the work I would devote the rest of my life to doing, called The Presence Point. It is six steps to expressing from genuine presence. I have always believed in omens and signs from life that point you where you need to go. I wrote a whole draft of a book but did not publish it because I realized that I had an important choice to make first. The six steps of The Presence Point became the foundation of the work that I did with hundreds of leaders, through my first business. Six years ago, I wanted to create a podcast to showcase the power of someone who genuinely sparks in the world. And I also co-wrote a book with my cousin, called The Harmony of Dissonance. In 2018, I decided to focus on the work that was burning within me. When the pandemic hit a year ago, it felt like everything shattered. I finally realized that it was time to stop holding back. I am now at the center of myself and ready to share my core work with you. Step one is to be present with your experience, no matter what.

The story of the shiny bowl and the lesson for how we see ourselves. Lessons learned from Octavia Butler’s writing How Krishna Das defines Genuine KD shares the difficulties we encounter in just being ourselves We all need someone to turn the light on for us at some point in our lives. What KD learned from his experience in a cult. Learning trust through betrayal The principle of our enlightenment being up to us. The wounds we carry from the expectations of others.
