Why Are Animals Here with Us? with Hans Wilhelm

Best-selling author/illustrator Hans Wilhelm returns to share insights into the teachings of modern-day prophetess Gabriele, which form the basis of his short “Life Explained” YouTube videos. This conversation centers on his video “What About Animals?” where we learn about the divinely designed cycle of love and service between humans and animals. Like Unity co-founder Charles Fillmore, Gabriele believed animals were our “little brothers and sisters” whose love we are to receive and whose care and mercy we are to give. Hans and Rev. Carol also discuss the nature of God and Jesus, the laws of love and karma, and interpretations of the 10 Commandments and the Beatitudes as they relate to all life.

Let the Compassion Games Begin! with Jon Eliot Ramer

Inspired by 9/11, the Dalai Lama’s Seeds of Compassion, and indigenous wisdom. Jon Ramer founded the Compassion Games, where competition is replaced by “co-opetition,” and where compassion is made visible through real-world actions. In this episode, Jon outlines the 99-day games (June 21 - September 27) and the four “doorways” to play —Earth, People, Together (shared impact), and Place (bioregions). He and Rev. Carol also explore themes of division, relationship without domination, stewardship vs ownership, distributed power, consensus governance, and using technology and AI ethically to support cooperation, restoration, and a “reverent revolution” of care for all life and future generations.

Can Love Transform the World? with Adam Guzman-Poole - EP 363

Adam Guzman-Pool, a holistic relationship counselor and author of Lessons on Love, recounts his journey from troubled teen to a 20-year apprenticeship with different indigenous medicine people, healers, and Buddhist teachers, and how meeting his wife redirected his monastic plans to embracing a committed family life. He and Rev. Carol explore the powers of discernment and love in catalyzing personal and global change, and the simple but monumental idea that changing the world begins with self, then family, community, and beyond. Adam shares several stories applicable to the spiritual path, from Arjuna’s encounter with Krishna in the Bhagavad Gita to his personal “micro moment” story of befriending a neighbor. In the end, he offers hope and practical advice for moving through the chaotic times facing us. Adam offers listeners a free gift which you can download at lessonsonlove.org/gift.

Finding Humility in the African Bush with Ronald Dulek - EP 362

Business professor Ronald Dulek and his wife bought a house sight unseen in the African Bush seeking to “squeeze the juice” of life. In the 20 summers they spent there, he learned profound spiritual lessons about humility, presence, facing fear, systems that produce poverty, the importance of unplugging from modern busyness, and finding God in nature. He recounts some fascinating stories about his encounters with elephants and other animals and what they taught him about life and himself. Perhaps you will be inspired to also “squeeze the juice” of life in your own way.

Grow and Thrive as a Caregiver with Roy Remer - EP 362

Caregiving is a universal topic, as Rosalynn Carter (1927–2023) once famously stated that everyone will eventually be a caregiver, have been one, need one, or will need one. While it can be an emotionally and physically draining experience, guest Roy Remer brings a new light to caregiving and offers a path to genuinely grow and even thrive through the process. He reframes caregiving as restoring a human, psychospiritual connection often lost in a medicalized, death-denying culture, and emphasizes broad, everyday caregiving through presence and compassion. We explore honesty, resentment, storytelling, and why fixing and understanding can be overrated, especially in dementia care. The episode also highlights the Zen Caregiving Project training and support circles offered online.

Don't Cuddle With Your Thoughts With Georg Lolos - EP 361

Author and meditation teacher Georg Lolos shares his profound Ego House framework where attention and beliefs fertilize thoughts, pulling us into any of 10 relatable rooms of suffering (control, resistance, greed, hubris, denial, inferiority, neediness, guilt, confusion, and powerlessness). He describes these rooms on both the individual and collective level and provides a road map out of suffering into the garden of peace, freedom, and creativity. Our conversation also explores the power of compassionate self-observation, how these emotional structures impact our societies collectively and politically, and the huge healing potential for the children of our world.
