Aloha listening family. I want to share something special with you this week. It's an

episode of a podcast that I'm enjoying. It's called Need a Lifted by Tim Shriver.

Tim has years of experience working as an educator

and with the athletes and leaders of the Special's found that the best way to build

and through his work he's found that the best way to build community to connect people

is at a soul level and that's why his podcast need a lift

features guests who have transformed painful moments in their lives into purpose through spiritual rituals and

practices. Guests like best-selling novelist Min Jin Lee talking about why she creates complicated characters who hold the secret to our

transformation.

Writer Simon Sinnick on why idealism belongs in the workplace.

An Olympic athlete Michael Phelps and his wife Nicole talking about the importance of cultivating an inner life in competition, mental health, and their marriage.

Need a lift is truly the antidote to the hatred and despair were all exhausted of hearing giving us hope

that change is possible. In this episode the Office's Rain Wilson explains how we can quiet the world's chaos and deal with our collective sense of overwhelm by believing in something bigger than us.

Okay, here comes the preview.

You can hear more Need a Lift episodes where you get your podcasts.

I'll never forget a kind of a mystical transcendent

experience I had when I was maybe 12 where we were at a Baha'i youth

gathering we had been doing like some service work, and we were all sleeping outside, and it was a clear night, just all of these stars and thinking about them, how distant they were and how beautiful

they are and feeling the presence of of the divine in my life through the stars.

I'm Tim Shriver and this is Nita Lift, a show where each week we get a front row seat for the best in humanity. I need a lift to my soul for my worries and my worries and my woes they weigh me down.

Well, when I hear it over the riffs,

then my spirit starts to lift and we make a joyful sound.
