Cosmic Clowns
Erotic Presence
Welcome (back) to Cosmic Clowns, a podcast about exploring consciousness, surviving chaos, and finding the comedy in it all. After a tiny hiatus, we kick off our second “season” with an episode all about the erotic (just in time for Valentine’s Day). In this episode, we explore the multifaceted nature of an erotic that includes all sensual experience within its definition. We center Audre Lorde's ovular essay, “Uses of the Erotic: The Erotic As Power” where she emphasizes the erotic as a source of empowerment, resistance, and (especially) joy–a key insight for these times. Her/our take on...

New Year, New Woo
Welcome to Cosmic Clowns, a podcast about exploring consciousness, surviving chaos, and finding the comedy in it all.

We explore the inward turn that winter invites and suggest that we all engage in various ways of starting anew—the new moon, the new season, the equinoxes, the solstices...

Being Right vs Being Free
Welcome to Cosmic Clowns, a podcast about exploring consciousness, surviving chaos, and finding the comedy in it all. In this episode, we take a deep dive into the provocative question: Do you want to be right, or do you want to be free? We discuss how asking this question can dramatically change your attitude when you’re experiencing conflict with others, what role our need for perfectionism, control, and/or certitude plays in the need to be “right,” and the power of letting go of clinging and competition in favor of deeper curiosity and connection. Join us as we explor...

The Closet, Masks, and Hidden Identities

We discuss the complexities of coming out, who defines the closet or coming out, how sometimes we can go back in the closet, and the shadow or shameful parts of self that end up in the closet. We also explore different types of closets, including artistic and spiritual closets. Join us...

Scared Into the Sacred
Welcome to Cosmic Clowns, a podcast about exploring consciousness, surviving chaos, and finding the comedy in it all. In this episode, we discuss the role of fear in spiritual development by looking at two words with one letter difference: scared and sacred (the “c” moves). We talk about how scarcity can drive anxiety and the ways new perspectives, caring community, and spiritual practices (practices, practices, practices!) can help transform the scaries into sacred presence. There’s a lot of fear in the world right now. There are also people who profit greatly from us being scared. Let’s follow that “c”...

In This Episode: * Why coach Reva Patwardhan counts her intrinsic sense of belonging as one of her top strengths* How “deep processing” allows her to work with high-achieving women in unexpected ways* How she’s learned to work with her ADHD instead of against it* What she’s discovered at the intersection of neurodivergence and being a woman of color I think a lot about belonging.

This Conversation Actually Explains Oneness With The Universe | Sebene Selassie
I grew up with that famous Groucho Marx joke, "I wouldn't want to belong to a club that would have me as a member." It always resonated with me. As my grandfather would say, "I resemble that remark." We all know that belonging -- to a tribe, a family, a group of any sort -- is a key part of human happiness; science bears this out. But my guest today, Sebene Selassie, is taking this concept of belonging to a much, much deeper level. To the "oneness with the universe" level. That's obviously one of the world's greatest spiritual...

Growing up in the nation's capital as the daughter of Ethiopian and Eritrean immigrants, Selassie herself spent much of her life on the outside looking in. In her new book, You Belong: A Call for Connection, she mixes personal narrative with classical Buddhist teachings on interconnectedness to make a compelling case for why...
