The War and Treaty’s Michael and Tanya Trotter grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, and Washington, DC, respectively, but both have family roots in the South. They also grew up in the musical traditions of their churches – Tanya in the Black Baptist Church and Michael in the Seventh Day Adventist Church – where they learned the power of song to move people. After becoming a father at a very young age, Michael eventually joined the armed forces and served in Iraq and Germany, where he took up songwriting as a way of dealing with his experiences there. Meanwhile Tanya embarked on a singing and acting career after a breakthrough appearance in Sister Act 2 alongside Whoopi Goldberg and Lauryn Hill. Now, after a long and sometimes traumatic journey, Michael and Tanya are married, touring, winning all sorts of awards, and set to release their fifth album together, and their fourth as The War and Treaty. Sid talks to Michael and Tanya about the new record, Plus One , as well as their collaboration with Miranda Lambert, what it was like to record at FAME studios in Muscle Shoals, and how they’re blending country, soul, gospel, and R&B.

1 E509 - Stacey Sanderson - Heart Wide Open, A Holistic Guide to Self Recovery from Narcissistic Wounding - No Not Enought Button, No Wake Sign 43:35
Episode 509 - Stacey Sanderson - Heart Wide Open, A Holistic Guide to Self Recovery from Narcissistic Wounding - No Not Enought Button, No Wake Sign Stacey Sanderson and I'm a Registered Psychotherapist and Holistic Life Coach. It's my mission to help people heal and release relationship patterns and step into their power. As part of my own healing and recovery process I dove into understanding personality pathology and focused on this and the biopsychosocial roots of this issue. For the last twenty years I have sought to better understand narcissism from the point of view of trauma, attachment and energy. With many years experience as a therapist, I wanted to create a more heart-centered and holistic approach in my work with clients, integrating trauma and somatic modalities with meditation, mindfulness, expressive arts. My work is collaborative and intuitively guided. A lot of the time, this work is about empowering empaths! I believe that there is healing in connection and community. My own personal healing from narcissistic family and work systems came full circle when I stepped into my power and full potential - and I know you can do the same! I live in rural Ontario, Canada where I enjoy being in nature either running, skiing, kayaking or gardening! I have been married for 27 years and have two adult children, our beautiful rescue dog Zoe and two cats. I have a small private psychotherapy practice, and my passion is in leading the Inquire Within relationship recovery community. Book: Heart Wide Open A Holistic Guide to Self Recovery from Narcissistic Wounding by Stacey Sanderson As a practising psychotherapist, Stacey Sanderson takes a holistic and trauma-based approach to healing in her work with clients who are—or have been—involved in narcissistic relationships. In Heart Wide Open: A Holistic Guide to Narcissistic Recovery, she delves into the roots and consequences of such relationships through a comprehensive examination of a number of factors, including attachment theory, family dynamics, and early childhood trauma. At times, Stacey draws upon her own personal experience of recovery to bring her point poignantly home. The book includes a series of self-directed exercises, or “Journal Prompts,” to help readers develop a deeper understanding of the dynamics of toxic relationships in their own lives. With Stacey’s guidance, this self-delving leads readers toward self-compassion and healing through what she refers to as “Compassionate Detachment.” Heart Wide Open: A Holistic Guide to Narcissistic Recovery, written in down-to-earth accessible language, is a must-read for those who want to learn more about narcissism and narcissists, their own personal relationship patterns, and how they can create powerful interpersonal boundaries to facilitate healing. The emphasis is on recovering the vital aspects of the self that had to be hidden in order to survive the relationship. Now, it’s time to break free of unhealthy cycles to make room for the love you deserve. https://www.staceysanderson.ca/ Support the show ___ https://livingthenextchapter.com/ podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks! https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca…
Episode 508 - A X Foster - GAVEL TO GAVEL and DOUBLE BLIND - THE SENECA COUNTY COURTHOUSE SERIES A. X. Foster was a prosecutor in Maryland for 20 years and then opened up his own law firm where he represented criminal defendants for an additional 15 years. As a prosecutor, he tried approximately 100 jury trials, including homicides, sexual assaults, domestic violence and animal cruelty cases. His work promoting increased protection for animals led to the legislature enacting the first felony animal abuse law in Maryland history. He also won the first conviction under the new law in 2000. Foster graduated from Bennington College in Vermont with a double major in Literature and Theatre Arts. He then spent two years as a copywriter at the Madison Avenue advertising agency Ogilvy & Mather. Foster then traveled in Europe while based in Amsterdam, where he performed for two years at the English Speaking Theatre of Amsterdam. After returning to New York, he became a member of the acting unions Actors’ Equity, the Screen Actors’ Guild, and the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists. In the 1980s, Foster performed in various TV soap operas, including “Ryan’s Hope,” “Search For Tomorrow,” “The Guiding Light,” “Another World,” and “As The World Turns.” Disenchanted with the world of professional acting, Foster entered law school to become an entertainment lawyer, but took a different path once he studied criminal law. At Emory University School of Law in Atlanta, Foster won the school-wide Moot Court tournament and also received the prize for best legal writing, the Best Brief Award, and the prize for best speaker, the Best Oralist Award. He was then named to represent Emory in the National Moot Court tournament where he competed against other law schools from across the country. Upon graduation from law school, Foster first worked for the Department of Justice in Wilmington, Delaware and then took a position as an Assistant State’s Attorney in Maryland. GAVEL TO GAVEL, Foster’s first legal thriller, is based on Foster’s experiences as a prosecutor. A life-long fan of murder mysteries and legal thrillers, with Agatha Christie, John Grisham and James Patterson as influences, Foster began writing the novel in 2020, when COVID greatly curtailed activity in the local courthouse. In GAVEL TO GAVEL, a wealthy businessman is murdered by his wife. The only eyewitness is their nine-year-old disabled daughter. Her testimony is the key to the case. Top prosecutor Mac MacIntyre is calm, confident and relies on his courtroom cunning to maneuver through a maze of office politics, the bright glare of the media spotlight and his own thorny ethical dilemmas. The story follows Mac as he navigates from the crime scene investigation to the selection of the jury, to fierce cross-examination, to a surprising jury verdict. GAVEL TO GAVEL was published by Paper Raven Books in 2023 and has garnered many positive reviews. His next book in THE SENECA COUNTY COURTHOUSE SERIES is titled DOUBLE BLIND, and features another murder trial with elements of police and judicial corruption. https://www.axfoster.com/ Support the show ___ https://livingthenextchapter.com/ podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks! https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca…
1 E507 - Richard Sparks - Richard Returns to Share His Next Project, to celebrate news about The Schoolmaster skit and Rowan Atkinson's creative license 55:38
Episode 507 - Richard Sparks - Richard Returns to Share His Next Project, to celebrate news about The Schoolmaster skit and Rowan Atkinson's creative license Richard Sparks One morning in 1979 I got a call from an understandably excited Rowan Atkinson. “John Cleese just called. He’s asked me to be in his new charity show – and can I do The Schoolmaster?” Er, yes. I’d written The Schoolmaster for Rowan the previous year, for a revue at the Hampstead Theatre (Rowan with Elspeth Walker and Peter Wilson). John and his co-producer, Martin Lewis, had seen it; and a year later, Rowan and I were backstage at Her Majesty’s Theatre, meeting John and other members of the cast of The Secret Policeman’s Ball. Rowan went on stage an unknown, with his gown and clipboard and pen, and came off a star. The Schoolmaster became his signature piece, the encore of his live shows. Eventually, he got tired of doing the same old routine and wrote another (ruder) version, generously giving me half the royalties. By that time, I’d cut my teeth on various TV shows, from HTV (Wales) to ITV (Southern and Central) to the BBC. I’d also written some stage shows (reviews, original plays, and adaptations of Goldoni comedies), and done a lot of freelance script editing. In 1992, I was hired by Columbia Picture Television to work with Blake Hunter and Marty Cohan, the creators of Who’s the Boss?. My wife and I moved with our young daughter to her parents (converted) garage and we’ve lived in Los Angeles since. I’ve written a number of libretti for operas, almost all for the LA Opera – some original pieces, some translations from German or Italian. My writing partner, the composer, Lee Holdridge, was – in a way – once G.R.R. Martin’s ‘writing partner’ in that he composed the scores for the TV series Beauty and the Beast, for which Martin was a script writer. I’d been a hard-core RPG gamer for years when the idea for these books just fell out of the sky one morning, and I started writing. I have hardly had a moment to log on to any game — I’m too busy exploring the New Rock stories as they unfold. My publisher, Caezik SF & Fantasy, is a company of enthusiasts who love these genres. I am delighted to join their family of authors, and to be working with their executive editor, Lezli, Robyn. Three sequels – New Rock New Realm, New Rock New Rules, and New Rock New Roads, have been completed and will be published in due course. I’m currently working on the fifth book https://richardsparks.com/ Support the show ___ https://livingthenextchapter.com/ podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks! https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca…

Berkeley in Art History, a M.A. in Graduate Humanities and a MFA in Creative Writing from Dominican University of California. Her early professional career was in the blue-chip retail art world as a Gallerist for several prominent San Francisco art dealers including Crown Point Press and John Berggruen Gallery. She was most recently a public guide at SFMOMA and Museum Educator on staff at the Contemporary Jewish Museum in San Francisco. Her writing up until now has been in her professional life, primarily non-fiction, essays for exhibition catalogs, art criticism, tours, and public talks. Her short story, Family Footnotes , was recently featured in the summer 2024 edition of Amaranth: a journal of food writing, art and design, and she was a quarterfinalist in the Driftwood Press in house short story contest for the Spring of 2024. Fine, I’m a Terrible Person is her debut novel. Her family heritage is Rhodeslis, Ladino speaking Sephardic Jews from the island of Rhodes. Her deep affection for her cultural legacy is reflected in the novel’s historical accuracy of language, cultural authenticity, and descriptions of mouthwatering cuisine. About the Book Fine, I’m a Terrible Person 73-year-old, worn out, former beauty, Aurora Hmans Feldenburg, a hapless, perpetually broke, eccentric, divorcee living in the wealthy enclave of Tiburon in Marin County in Northern California, is wakened by a phone call informing her that her father’s widow, has died. Her last chance at solvency, she decides to drive to Los Angeles to see if there is a will. Aurora is always ready for the next get rich scheme. Aurora’s high-strung daughter, 43-year-old Leyla Feldenburg Rothstein, is a hypersensitive, insecure, perfectionist, insomniac, emotionally damaged from her father’s lifelong abuse and rejection. She is married to a wealthy, Jewish prince charming, investment banker who specializes in the legal Cannabis industry. Aurora and Leyla’s separate quests intersect and enmesh in Los Angeles over the course of a weekend, where they both end up staying with cousins, quirky, endearing, Sephardic Jews who speak Ladino, mostly in proverbs and cook prodigious quantities of delicacies from the old country, the island of Rhodes. When Aurora’s meager inheritance is stolen, she drags Leyla into a ludicrous chase. Unable to resist the pull from the trauma bond she shares with her infuriating mother, Leyla fails to adhere to her boundaries, even after years of therapy. She risks losing everything to another one of Aurora’s harebrained schemes. Their entangled journeys and the chaotic, catastrophic outcome are the last straw for Leyla who must break free from her mother’s toxic dependency and destructive attachment to save herself, her marriage, and her young family. https://lisafrosenberg.com/ Support the show ___ https://livingthenextchapter.com/ podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks! https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca…

He is a general practitioner, emergency doctor, documentary filmmaker, author, photographer, and globetrotter. As a medical student, he was the first to go abroad for Norwegian Doctors Without Borders when he worked in war-torn Angola in 1996. For 25 years, he has been a freelance doctor, working in municipalities all over the country, conducting tens of thousands of consultations, and gaining a unique perspective on the diseases that plague us. He has learned that the cause is most often found in a lifestyle that stresses our body. He wanted to do something about that. Torkil is concerned with how we can get the most out of life. In the book The Pulse Cure, he explains step by step how we can use the heart rate monitor or the smartphone to get to know our own body better and gain better control of the stress balance and the autonomic nervous system. Torkil has been given a new life by making several intelligent lifestyle changes. He hopes that everyone who wants better health and more energy to live life to the fullest will benefit from the measures he enjoys so much. He also has a big wish for the healthcare system: that it works preventively to a much greater extent and provides more self-help resources than is the case today. Torkil Færø is also an award-winning photographer who has published photography art books, held exhibitions and held photography workshops in many countries. He is an enthusiastic long-distance walker and has made the NRK films about pilgrimages to Nidaros and Santiago de Compostela.

EPISODE 501 - Doralyn Moore - From Social Services to Writer, Finding Faith in Stories and Belief Reading is a pleasure for me and there is seldom a time that I do not carry a book in my hand. I have even been known to take one to a major league baseball game, which put a big frown on my husband’s face. One day as I was reading a book, I thought to myself, “I can do this. I can write a book.” Little did I know then how challenging it is to write a novel. But the thought put a seed in my mind and soon after that, I began writing. However, life got in the way and I put the writing aside for many years. When I retired in 2019, I pulled out the old manuscripts and began revising them. In March 2021, I self-published “Seventy Times Seven” with Friesen Press. In 2022, “Hope Doesn’t Disappoint”, the first book of the 3-book Victory Series was published traditionally by Elk Lake Publishing, Inc., a small Christian company in Plymouth, MA. The second book in the series, “Abundance of Grace” came out in June 2023. The third, “Caused to Triumph”, is to be published sometime in 2024. During the over thirty years I worked in the social services field, I met people of diverse cultures, socioeconomic and educational backgrounds, and beliefs. Their personalities and stories have become a melting pot in my brain and from that concoction come the characters and plots for my books. They do not come from one specific person but from a melding of many. https://www.doralynmoore.ca/ ___ https://livingthenextchapter.com/ podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ Support the show ___ https://livingthenextchapter.com/ podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks! https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca…
1 E500 - Dominick Domasky - A.I. and Authors, Publishing A Book in 2025, Celebrating A Milestone 38:03
EPISODE 500 - Dominick Domasky - A.I. and Authors, Publishing A Book in 2025, Celebrating A Milestone AI's Role in Content Creation David and Dominick discussed the role of AI in content creation, particularly in writing and podcasting. They expressed concerns about the reliance on AI tools, which they believe can lead to the production of "beige" content that lacks personal stories and deep connections. They emphasized the importance of human creativity and the value of personal experiences in writing. They also discussed the potential pitfalls of using AI to generate content, such as the lack of authenticity and the inability to capture the essence of a personal story. They concluded that while AI can be a useful tool, it should not replace the creative mind of an author. Consistency, Authenticity, and Networking Success Dominick emphasized the importance of consistency and authenticity in achieving success, using the example of a friend who appeared on Oprah. He stressed that success requires putting in the same effort that led to success elsewhere and being consistent in sharing one's message. He also highlighted the importance of networking and reaching out to the right audience, using the example of a fantasy book author who found more success at a comic-con than at a book event. David agreed with these points, noting that the author's ability to connect with people at the comic-con was key to their success. Persistence and Continuous Improvement Dominick and David discussed the importance of persistence and continuous improvement in their respective endeavors. Dominick shared his experiences with various events and how he learned from them, emphasizing the value of networking and adapting to different situations. David then shared a quote from Theodore Roosevelt, "Do what you can with what you have where you are," and how it relates to authors. They both agreed on the importance of sharing one's journey, both the successes and struggles, to inspire and connect with others. David expressed his appreciation for Dominick's willingness to share his experiences and journey, which he believes helps others feel more comfortable in their own struggles. Support, Motivation, and Podcast Growth In the meeting, David and Dominick discussed the importance of reaching out to others for support and motivation. David expressed his gratitude towards Dominick for his consistent support and guidance. They also discussed the upcoming 500th episode of their podcast and the need for more authors to be featured. David encouraged Dominick to send him new authors who have never been on a podcast for a great first experience. They also touched on the topic of sharing content and the benefits of evergreen content. The conversation ended with both parties wishing each other a happy holiday season. https://www.motivationchamps.com/ ___ https://livingthenextchapter.com/ podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ Support the show ___ https://livingthenextchapter.com/ podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks! https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca…
