Today’s Life Question of the Week comes from someone asking how to let go of the anger they feel towards a family member’s financial abundance when they believe they don’t deserve it.  Next, Michael sits down with Matthew Fox. Matthew is an author, theologian, and activist priest who, for over 50 years, has ignited an international movement to awaken people to be mystics, prophets, and contemplative activists who honor the Earth and work for justice. He founded the University of Creation Spirituality to help establish a new pedagogy for learning spirituality grounded in an effort to reawaken the West to its own mystical traditions in such figures as Hildegard of Bingen, Meister Eckhart, the mysticism of Thomas Aquinas, and other contemporary scientists and mystics.  During their insightful conversation, Michael and Matthew discuss:  Matthew’s early life as a monk in the Dominican Order, and his eventual embrace of spirituality and Liberation Theology which ultimately got him expelled by the Vatican The challenges of institutionalized religion, why younger generations are moving more towards spirituality, and what that means  The importance of returning to mysticism and spirituality, and Matthew’s work in discovering the teachings of Western mystics including:     -Thomas Aquinas, a 13th-century theologian and Dominican monk who stood up the religious establishment of the day by embracing Aristotle and his paganist beliefs in nature, science, creation, non-dualism, and being present to love and the Universe     -Julian of Norwich, the first woman to write a book in English in the 14th century. She wrote about the goodness of nature, that nature is God, and that we are all born in, and are here to share joy     -Howard Thurman, an American author, philosopher, theologian, mystic, educator, and civil rights leader who grounded all of his work in the idea that life is alive with creative intelligence Cultivating joy, and how playfulness and fun are virtues – and much more! And as always, Michael concludes with a brief meditation that encapsulates the energy of their conversation. *Please note that this conversation includes a brief discussion on Bishop Carlton Pearson, a progressive spiritual teacher and author who, since the recording of this episode, has passed away.

Today’s Life Question comes from someone whose brother is moving to another country to be with the person he loves, and while she’s happy he found someone, she’s skeptical about him making this life-changing decision for someone he only recently met. Next, Michael chats with acclaimed pop culture thought leader, speaker, life strategist, counselor, and author of “The Miracle Mentality,” Tim Storey. Tim is credited for enhancing the lives of millions and has traveled to 75 countries helping people to realize the best version of themselves. Whether one-on-one or in groups of more than 20,000, Tim is able to connect on a personal level with people from all walks of life, from entertainment executives, celebrities, and professional athletes, to adults and children in neighborhoods throughout America and in the most deprived and war-torn regions of the world. Through his several best-selling books, presentations, and strategy sessions, Tim’s mission is to bring to light all of the possibilities that are too often blocked by fear or hidden by one’s limited viewpoint. During this deeply insightful dialogue where Michael not only interviews Tim, but Tim also interviews Michael, they discuss: –How having a miracle mentality means feeling a sense of peace and joy despite life’s challenges, changes, and loss, and knowing you’ll get through anything regardless of what’s happening –Why it’s more important to focus on developing our strengths vs. trying to fix our weaknesses –Living in ‘the Mundane,’ ‘the Messy,’ ‘the Madness,’ and ‘the Miracle’ of life, and what that all means  –That it is natural for us to feel good and that we are wired for love, peace, and goodness, but we must learn how to bring it out, and that they must be practiced –How Tim’s travels and asking questions broadened his scope of spirituality and Christianity  –Tim’s new, upcoming podcast with Deepak Chopra, “Never Alone” – and much more! And as always, Michael concludes with a brief meditation that encapsulates the energy of their conversation.
