We tend to divide our experience into two parts, which we usually name ‘good’ and ‘bad’. And we do so for good reason - to belong in our family systems and communities, to keep a particular image or identity going, because we are afraid of what and what we will be if we let love, or joy, or anger, or longing touch us. But the cost is high - in realness, in capacity to bringing our gifts to the world, in our fully taking up the possibilities of this one precious life. So how might we welcome and reinclude that which has been split off? And how might we do so in a way that is life-giving, mature, and responsive to our cares, concerns and commitments?

417: It's Never Too Late, our 8th Anniversary Episode
It's never too late to look at our lives, to set out on a new path, to begin the difficult and necessary and life-giving work of changing course, of learning how to bring ourselves in a way that deepens our depth, courage, love, kindness, truthfulness and contribution. It's never too late to learn something, to teach something. It's never too late to live - even in the very last moments of our lives. This conversation, marking the 8th anniversary of Turning Towards Life, takes us into an exploration of who we humans can be to one another, especially when we pay attention, when we remember our capacities to make worlds together, and when we commit to listen to one another with kindness, truthfulness, openness and care.
