Educating for the Soul (S3E6)
In this final episode of season 3 (Calli), we review the essay by Thomas Moore "Educating for the Soul" which appears in Holistic Learning And Spirituality In Education: Breaking New Ground (2005), edited by John P. Miller and more. We discuss the idea of breaking from the path of secular/conventional education that is not designed to teach for the soul. Why is the soul important? How might we change our behaviors and strategies to open up an embracing of soul centered learning?

Ecstatic Risk-taking (S1E7)
Emergent Curriculum takes over our podcast and veers our hosts towards a jagged dialogue regarding the role of risk-taking as a quality and skill to develop as Mentors. Becoming a life-long learner requires risk-taking. The alternative, as Joseph Campbell would put it, is specialization—within such a scope a life-long trajectory is possible but at a loss for the holistic potential we all carry within. Robert Bly wanted nothing to do with any of this--he was more in line with the Mystics, like Hafiz and Rumi, whom he worked so hard towards bringing into our myopic vision field.
