S4 Episode 2 of 'Where Should We Begin?' with Esther Perel
In this episode of, we are introduced to two individuals in a same-sex relationship. Over three years into the relationship the romance remains a secret as one of the partners is not yet ‘out.’ We meet the pair as they are working to decide if the connection is worth fighting for through the layers of oppression they face. The dynamic has devolved into a classic relationship dance of pursuer and distancer. Each partner unintentionally triggers the exact behavior they do not desire in the other.
Can the pair alter this pattern and create an open, trusting relationship? Or have they become so invested in the choreography they cannot change the dance?

WITH KRISTA TIPPETT
Pauline Boss coined the term “ambiguous loss” and invented a new field within psychology to name the reality that every loss does not hold a promise of anything like resolution. Amid this pandemic, there are so many losses — from deaths that could not be mourned, to the very structure of our days, to a sudden crash of what felt like solid careers and plans and dreams. This conversation is full of practical intelligence for shedding assumptions about how we should be feeling and acting as these only serve to deepen stress.

EPISODE 03: MENTAL HEALTH
This podcast’s mission is three-fold:
1. To have meaningful conversations about Business, Life and Happiness. To explore what it means to be human, and what is possible by living a life with intention (and not by default).
2. To build a community of kindred humans through sharing, learning and growing together.
3. To put out joy into the world. To have fun!
Vivek Murthy, former U.S. Surgeon General, says that even before the Covid-19 pandemic, we were facing another health crisis: loneliness. Studies show that, around the world, more people have been feeling a greater sense of social isolation, which has many negative affects, including increased blood pressure, reduced immune response, and decreased engagement and productivity at work. But organizations can be a place where people find a greater sense of belonging. Murthy wants us to take loneliness more seriously and focus on fostering the types of authentic connections — face-to-face and virtual — that we need to combat it.
