TODAY'S GUEST   BJ Miller is an American physician, author, and speaker. He is a practicing hospice and palliative medicine physician, and is best known for his 2015 TED Talk, "What Really Matters at the End of Life". BJ, who served as an executive director of San Francisco's Zen Hospice Project, has been on the teaching faculty at UCSF School of Medicine since 2017, and is the subject of the Netflix Academy Award nominated short documentary, End Game. His book, A Beginner's Guide to the End, which he co-authored with Shoshana Berger, is an unflinching, compassionate, and intensely pragmatic guide to the end of life.   Today, BJ sees patients and caregivers through his online palliative care service, Mettle Health.   EPISODE SUMMARY   In this conversation we talk about: Growing up with a mother who lived with polio, and how that influenced his thinking. A severe accident early it life, which forced him to re-form his identity and informed the rest of his journey. His path in Palliative care - and the insight that the health establishment is designed to treat diseases, not humans. His insights into the meaning and wisdom one can find at the end of life.   It's been a rare pleasure to talk to someone like BJ, who is someone who steps into realms of experience most of us avoid at all costs, and to hear the precious types of wisdom he brings with him from there.   This episode, I think, is also a great introduction to the world of palliative medicine, which may be the first time the medical establishment put the patient's experience, quality of life, and constructed meeting at the heart of care, treating people as opposed to diseases. BJ and I discuss the ways the healthcare system and hospital system are badly designed, and what can be done about it.   TIMESTAMP CHAPTERS   [4:32] Life During Covid [7:23] Early Childhood Spirituality [12:30] An Accident and an Identity Crisis [18:25] The Significance of a Snowball [22:01] Palliative Care and the Dynamic Between Human Beings [29:51] A Badly Designed Healthcare System [32:20] Necessary vs Unnecessary Suffering [35:13] Lessons in Death [39:51] Wildness and Wonderment [47:54] A Beginner's Guide to the End [53:36] A Sermon on Life and Death   EPISODE LINKS BJ's Links 🌍 Zen Hospice Project 🌍 Mettle Health 📘 A Beginner's Guide to the End: Practical Advice for Living Life and Facing Death 🎤 TED Talk 🍿 End Game 💼 LinkedIn: LinkedIn Profile 📣 Twitter: @bjmillermd 📺 YouTube Channel ABOUT US Remake Podcast: Visit us: RemakePod.org 🙏🏻 Rate the show on iTunes 🙏🏻 Support us!

TODAY'S GUEST Rabbi Amichai Lau-Lavie is an Israeli-born, Jewish educator, writer, and performance artist. He's the creator of Storahtelling, Inc. and the founding spiritual leader of Lab/Shul in NYC, an artist-driven, everybody friendly, God-optional, pop-up experimental community for sacred Jewish gatherings. Amichai is a member of the Global Justice Fellowship of the American Jewish World Service, a founding member of the Jewish Emergent Network, serves on the Leadership Council of the New York Jewish Agenda, the Advisory Council of the International School for Peace - a Refugee Support Project in Greece, a member of the Advisory Council for the Institute for Jewish Spirituality, and is a faculty member of the Reboot Network. Through all his endeavors, he brings a creative, inclusive, and vital energy to Jewish practice and Jewish life.     EPISODE SUMMARY In this conversation we talk about: How the Jewish concept of the set table served both as a happy early memory, and as an organizing principle for his later work. How Covid 19 made rituals and online communities more important than ever. His orthodox roots as the scion of an ancient and respected rabbinical dynasty, and his journey of self discovery through theater, drag, and art. His creation of storytelling, a way to bring to life the ancient ritual of the reading of the Torah, and the Maven Method he developed to spread the practice further. The emergence of Lab/Shul and the community around it. The power of spiritual design and a well-designed practice in transforming our lives and our communities for the better. We also discuss: How is religion used as a tool in the service of humanity? What happens if you bring scripture to the 21st century as a performance? Why is the tribal wisdom of small circles within a bigger circle so important? I've long believed that one of the most promising avenues to apply design skills and creativity to is in designing communities, social rituals, and spiritual practice that suits the modern world. And, as such, there's no one I can think of that exemplifies this better than Rabbi Amichai Lau-Lavie. I think this conversation, which is full of wisdom and fun, is a great introduction to exactly the type of spiritual design we need to see more of. So let's jump right in with Rabbi Amichai Lau-Lavie.   TIMESTAMP CHAPTERS [3:52] Life During Covid [10:17] The Wisdom of the Set Table [22:31] The Birth of Storahtelling [29:55] A Paradigm Shift from Patriarchy [38:25] Rebirth of the Translator [54:34] The Design of Lab/Shul [1:00:19] Design Thinking and Virtual Practice [1:11:54] Individualism vs Collectivism [1:19:36] The Significance of the Tree   EPISODE LINKS Amichai's Links 🌍 Lab/Shul 🌍 Storahtelling, Inc. 🌍 American Jewish World Service 🌍 Jewish Emergent Network 🌍 New York Jewish Agenda 🌍 International School of Peace 🌍 Institute for Jewish Spirituality 🌍 Amichai Lau-Lavie Official Website 💼 LinkedIn: LinkedIn Profile 📣 Twitter: @AmichaiLauLavie 📺 YouTube Channel Other Links     📺 Bo Burnham: Inside 🌍 929 🌍 Design Thinking - Stanford d.school 📕 The School of Life: An Emotional Education by Alain de Botton 📕 Religion for Atheists: A Non-believer's Guide to the Uses of Religion by Alain de Botton 📕 The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why It Matters by Priya Parker   ABOUT US Remake Podcast: Visit us: RemakePod.org 🙏🏻 Rate the show on iTunes 🙏🏻 Support us!

She is a Y Combinator alum, a young global leader at the World Economic Forum, and she's also Roma's mum.   EPISODE SUMMARY   In this conversation we talk about: Her journey from empowering citizens in the political process to empowering collectives to self-fund and self-govern Her vision for a more inclusive and expansive digital democracy The tension between idealism and the realities of life, politics, and system   We also discuss: How do we, as individuals, create a system and an environment that affects change? How can we use technology to upgrade democracy? How do we trust ourselves and each other?   There is no more important discussion, I believe, than how our new technologies should be used and woven into the fabric of our public life. And how to move from chaotic, even destructive populism, to a constructive model of participation and empowerment. My conversation with Pia is one of the most fascinating conversations, in an ongoing series of design conversations we've lined up for you on design for democracy, social change, and positive impact.   TIMESTAMP CHAPTERS   [2:48] Life During Covid [10:26] Early Influences [20:54] Upgrading Democracy [30:23] DemocracyOS and Liquid Democracy [38:07] The Dream of a Borderless and Equal World [46:24] Net Party and the Clash with Reality [53:33] Maintaining Hope and Motivation [58:40] Building a New Narrative [1:03:55] A Transition to an Open Collective [1:21:14] A Sermon of Inspiration   EPISODE LINKS Pia's Links 🌍 Open Collective 🌍 TED Talk 🌍 DemocracyOS 🌍 Net Party (Partido de la Red) 🌍 Pia Mancini Official Website 💼 LinkedIn: LinkedIn Profile 📣 Twitter: @piamancini 📺 YouTube Channel Other Links     📕 Humankind: A Hopeful History by Rutger Bregman    📕 From Dictatorship to Democracy by Gene Sharp   ABOUT US Remake Podcast: Visit us: RemakePod.org 🙏🏻 Rate the show on iTunes 🙏🏻 Support us!

How do we enact change to happen in a more human way to allow people to lead balanced lives? How do we become effective leaders?

TODAY'S GUEST   David Peter Stroh is the bestselling author of Systems Thinking for Social Change: A Practical Guide for Solving Complex Problems, Avoiding Unintended Consequences, and Achieving Lasting Results.   For the past 40 years, David has helped leaders to apply systems thinking to organizational strategy, and achieve breakthrough, sustainable change. He is a founding partner of the influential consulting firm Bridgeway Partners, a faculty member of the Academy for Systems Change, and a charter member of the Society for Organizational Learning.   EPISODE SUMMARY   In this conversation we talk about: How he was exposed as a child to both natural and urban complexity growing up in Inwood, at the very northern tip of Manhattan, NY. How he fell in love with transportation systems, but ended up studying Organization Development at MIT. How his search for greater impact and a seat at the table led him down the Systems Thinking path, and eventually to founding a consulting firm alongside Charlie Kiefer, Robert Fritz, and Peter Senge, later of The Fifth Discipline fame. We also discuss: What’s a system, and what’s systems thinking? Why do complex systems often yield unintended consequences? What are the benefits of systems thinking, especially in the world of impact? What does it tell us about wealth inequality and poverty? And why David has come to see systems thinking as an almost spiritual practice?   David’s book and his blog are must reads for anyone interested in making deep and lasting positive impact, and avoid undesirable consequences. And this conversation can serve as a good, and I think, exciting intro to the topic.   So let's jump right in with David Peter Stroh.   TIMESTAMP CHAPTERS   [3:34] Life During Covid [6:00] The Advantages of Various Points of View [12:17] The Birth of Innovation Associates [18:05] Defining Systems Thinking [22:57] The Role of Intent In Systems [33:32] The Benefits of The Systems Thinking Approach In Creating Change [42:56] The Spiritual Aspects of Systems Thinking [59:03] A Sermon for Those Who Wish to Create Change   EPISODE LINKS David's Links 🌍 BridgewayPartners.com 🌍 Bridgeway Partners' Blog 📘 Systems Thinking For Social Change: A Practical Guide to Solving Complex Problems, Avoiding Unintended Consequences, and Achieving Lasting Results 📝 Overcoming the Systemic Challenges of Wealth Inequality in the U.S. 🌍 Applied Systems Thinking 💼 LinkedIn: LinkedIn Profile 📣 Twitter: @davidpeterstroh 📺 YouTube Channel ABOUT US Remake Podcast: Visit us: RemakePod.org 🙏🏻 Rate the show on iTunes 🙏🏻 Support us!
