  • A Radically-Simple Approach to Getting Well | Julia Hotz

    A Radically-Simple Approach to Getting Well | Julia Hotz
    Aug 2 2024

    Did you know doctors are now prescribing activities like art classes, nature walks, and community gardening to treat loneliness, lack of purpose, and other modern ills? In this fascinating episode, Julia Hotz discusses the power of "social prescribing" outlined in her book The Connection Cure: The Prescriptive Power of Movement, Nature, Art, Service, and Belonging.


    Learn how reconnecting with these ancient wellsprings of human health and happiness can provide an antidote to the soul-draining effects of our frenetic, disconnected lives. If you've been yearning for more meaning, joy, and community, this conversation may be just what the doctor ordered.

  • What It’s Like to Be

    What It’s Like to Be
    Jul 31 2024

    Sharing an episode of “What It’s Like to Be…” from author Dan Heath. On the podcast, Dan explores the world of work, one profession at a time, and interviews people who love what they do.


    He finds out: What does a couples therapist think when a friend asks for relationship advice? How does a stand-up comedian come up with new material? What are the clues that suggest fraud to a forensic accountant? If you’ve ever met someone whose work you were curious about, and you had 100 nosy questions but were too polite to ask… this is the show for you.


    In this preview, Dan talks to an ocean lifeguard about performing CPR on a dolphin, learning to read the ocean, and leading daring (and sometimes foolish) rescues. You can find more episodes of What It’s Like to Be at https://link.chtbl.com/danheathsummer?sid=goodlifeproject

Fantastic.

I never fail to be amazed by the Jonathan Field’s intellect. He is not only a brilliant interviewer, he seems authentic and interacts so effortlessly. He seems to really do his research but nothing feels scripted. This is simply a class podcast. I just love it.
