A former Zen monk, PhD, and author of the international bestseller The World Peace Diet, he joins this conversation to walk through his newest book, The World Peace Way, a practical guide built around six keys: diet, spiritual practice, relationships, movement, nature, and creativity. What makes this conversation worth staying with is how grounded it is.

    You Don't Find the Story. The Story Finds You.

    Adam Mills didn't set out to write about race, small towns, or forbidden relationships. He sat down in a coffee shop in Mexico City with a spiral notebook and no plan — and the story told him what it needed to be. In this conversation with host KAJ, the author of the Patrick Stone series talks about the creative process behind writing four books, the challenge of writing characters whose experience differs from your own, and why a book, like a child, eventually stops belonging to you.He also gets honest about the part most writers avoid: marketing, sustainability, and what it actually takes to let your work be found.=========================================KAJ Masterclass LIVEA video-first, live-first global conversation ecosystem — editorially independent, depth-driven, and supporter-sustained.

    A special conversation with author Doug Fleener on his book "Start With What If: 52 Weekly Questions to Spark Immediate Change and Growth".When Doug looked back at every meaningful change in his life, he noticed a pattern: there was always an interrupter — something that disrupted his automatic thinking long enough for him to choose differently.

Not a 200-page explanation, but a simple tool: one chapter on the mechanism, and 52 weekly questions designed to help readers practice interruption in real life. In this conversation on The Author's Voice with KAJ, Doug shares how rebuilding his life from addiction and business collapse led him to this insight, why simple ideas are often overlooked, and how better questions can quietly reshape a life over time.
