Between Two Worlds: Integrating Transformative Spiritual Experiences9. Simone Surgeoner - The Long, Winding Journey from "Good" Religious Daughter to Medicine WomanSimone Surgeoner grew up in Melbourne, Australia in the Jehovah's Witness religious community. After having children of her own, Simone began to question the religion's teachings, and eventually left secular religious life behind in her early thirties.
What followed was a complete re-build of life on her own terms, leading to a twenty year journey of self-discovery. Simone explored different takes on love and sexuality, alternative therapies, and even moved to the U.S. and spent many months in her beloved Mexico where she experienced transformative healing from both plant medicine and good old fashioned sunshine.

She grew up watching her migrant parents work incredibly hard for the "American Dream", and found herself amassing degrees and credentials to make their sacrifice seem worthwhile. But there was something missing for Melissa, and her search for identity and meaning took her far away from her well-paid engineering career and marriage in the U.S., to where she finally landed in Ubud, Bali (finding new love basically on arrival!).
In this episode, Melissa shares her experience of exploring different aspects of...2023-12-141h 05Between Two Worlds: Integrating Transformative Spiritual Experiences6. Danielle Rateau Pt.

Samtal om böcker19. Nadim Ghazale: Min väg från flykting till hela Sveriges polisDet här är den vanliga invandrarhistorien, säger veckans gäst Nadim Ghazale. Lika dramatisk, förtvivlad och fantastisk som många andras i Sverige. Efter ett mycket uppskattat Sommar i P1 fördjupar Nadim nu sin berättelse om flykten från inbördeskrigets Libanon till livet som engagerad polis i Borås. Här finns det enkla och det svåra med resan till en ny framtid i ett nytt land. Johanna Stenius tipsar om ytterligare tre titlar från årets första boksläpp. Programledare Lisa Tallroth.
