I met with Julie about a year ago… and she was immersed in a new, seemly fortuitous venture. Since that episode (#86 "Visions, Downloads, Processing the Light"), I have been watching the events of the gallery she was at unfold. I became curious about the process of new chapters; what is it one goes through and does in the process of moving on from something that seemed so positive and certain in the recent past. I am very grateful for Julie's presence and openness. I can't think of a better way to open season eleven of Live With Greg.

With great patience, knowledge, and experience, my guest for episode 85 — Holly Seerley, MFT — educated me on the realities and challenges of this neurological disorder, ADHD. We also touched a bit upon personal relationships; romantic and family relationships. And at the core of our conversation was healing, acceptance, and love.

Maybe this should really be referred to as 1 and a half episodes? Our initial recording lost the first 20 minutes. We both believed the content was good enough to go with, so we tagged it on the end of this complete episode… complete episode? I don't know what I am saying anymore. And I was definitely out of my comfort areas with this conversation with Jacob. We got into sexuality; and the fluid elements of sex. I remain deeply grateful for Jacob's willingness to delve deeply and openly into this realm, that can be quite touchy. And that's my last innuendo. I believe this is a very strong start for season ten.

My guest is Reverend Connie Habash, author of the book, Awakening From Anxiety: A Spiritual Guide to Anxiety Relief. We have been attempting to meet for an episode for quite a while. I was originally drawn to meet her due to her connection with nature. However, this episode opened me to the wealth of energy and knowledge that is Connie. Being in her presence was amazing - I am really glad "the stars aligned". In her words: "My life is a committed journey to spiritual growth, authenticity, and learning to live the qualities of love, truth, service, and peace. It is my mission to serve by supporting others in their personal and spiritual transformation." This is a strong ending episode for my season nine… I think you'll like it.

She was the vibe that greeted one and all that passed through the doors. Janitors, executives, media stars - all treated and greeted with equal passion... I think a large part of her vibe is she is so glad each and every one of us is alive. I very fondly remember how she enveloped my family in love when they'd come to visit me at work. And I had the honor to sit with her recently and get a little piece of her story. I think there are a lot more stories to be told.

He has lived his life defiantly fabulous from day one. From everything I have heard about the man, and from my own experience, this is true. He has been in my corner, supporting my creative path, like no-one else. And more importantly, he has persevered with his own artistic vision through all the challenges. I believe we both would admit the biggest challenge is ourselves. If we could just get out of our own damn way... But I digress. I am deeply honored that he shared himself so openly. More important; I am deeply honored to consider this man family. Now, with a toss of our hair, let's get to it. Filmmaker, Writer, Director, Artist. Robert Monegan has three films, THE EYES OF THE WORLD, DRIVE, and DOUBLE A, he wrote, directed, and currently screening in various film festivals.

Tony Vidal, founder/creator of Prankster Entertainment, invited me to be an intimate part of his journey in feature films. It is a gift in my life I am deeply grateful for. And as many know, a lot of the stories of storytelling are behind the scenes of the story being told. I think this is a great insight into a person's creative journey, the choices made - and what has remained important through it all. AND - I highly recommend checking out the current features produced by Prankster Entertainment: The Prankster, Baja, and Free Byrd. The uphold Prankster Entertainment's mission: We live in a fascinating and crucial time. Now more than ever there is a need for uplifting movies that lighten the heart and expand awareness. To put people in touch with the sacred has always been the ultimate purpose of storytelling. Prankster Entertainment’s goal is to inspire and awaken, through entertaining human stories geared for a mass audience.

I have enjoyed meeting up with her for a great cup of coffee (thank you Red Whale) and an even greater conversation. We're both interested in exploring "what is life?", "how can I improve?", and generally sharing our experiences of being alive. Some of it uplifting, some of it challenging, all enlightening. I think we both share that general approach to life. As a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I believe Paula has expressed to me her more inclined to work with children and elders. (I think I qualify for both — which isn't necessarily a compliment.) This is taken from her website, https://paulamierzejewski.com: I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who provides therapy for children, teens and adults. I received my Master of Science degree in Counseling Psychology from Dominican University in San Rafael, CA in 2014, and have a B.A. degree in English from the University of New Haven in West Haven, CT. This is my second career after having worked 25 years in the legal field. My life’s experience enables me to be a better therapist for my clients. After working several years as an elementary school counselor for the Waugh School District in Petaluma I moved into private practice. My primary goal is to help others find happiness and success within themselves, within their family and within their peer relationships.

I met Mirtha over a year ago. Online. Over our mutual endeavor of making movies. Mirtha's second film is based on documented facts; a fictional story based in Sweden about the government supported practice of eugenics. Eugenics literally means “well-born,” and it is the belief system that has fostered the nazi holocaust, and apparently is still in practice here in the united states — and throughout other parts of the world. Mirtha's information is important to me. Due to her schedule next year, as she is off to produce her third film, our only opportunity to record an episode came at the end of this year… and thus, you have a bonus episode of Live With Greg.

This great, big, gorgeous flower erupted on my screen - full bloom. I chatted with Nora and found her to be very open... and luckily, she's green lit this episode of LWG. She's a neighbor, an artist, and a brave creative explorer of this physical realm - we definitely got into a discussion about shadows and light. You can explore more about her here: https://www.konorebi.com And I think I'd be remiss to not have link to Paint the Void: "Giving grants to artists for safeguarding hope and beauty in the wake of COVID-19" https://paintthevoid.org/ ...you'll learn a lot about Nora in this episode.

Christopher is a brother—heart to heart. Like a true brother, He's pissed at me sometimes. And he pisses me off sometimes. We went through a pretty heavy bout about a year ago... half a year ago... ?? I'm not sure. But we were talking with each other within a week's time; when he gave me a raving testimonial for my skills as a producer. He took me off the streets, and has shared his intimate life with me from day one of us knowing each other. AND... if you want someone who can help you kick what ever addiction is driving you nuts; he's a number one coach/sponsor. Here's his Clean & Sober site: https://www.cleanandsobercoach.com He's got a work in progress, interviews and exploration about Love, Sex, and Relationships: https://ahumanaffair.com/ He's the most honest person I know, struggling in the mire of "who am i?" like the rest of us.

I met Leslie when she reached out to her community, wanting to communicate with diverse perspectives from her own. As she put it, "Recently, I have been doing some reading that has challenged me to recognize the cognitive biases and faulty thinking that probably has led me to some incorrect conclusions in life." I met with her and appreciated the dialogue and open communication. More and more I experience the healing balm communication is. It brings us together.

This is one of them; Momz (Addie). I know Momz to be a deeply loving, strong human being… and have come to know her even more deeply in recent years. (She helped raise me since high school) I was not expecting to learn such a moving story of challenges overcome. And what is most important to me; overcome with nothing but Love for all involved.

This is a very exciting episode for me, with special guest, Mark Northcross. His experience and first-hand accounting of what is happening is, well, a solid wake-up call. This is from Mark's LinkedIn bio: I have worked as a public finance professional since 1981. I started at John Nuveen & Company, became of founding partner of Kelling Northcross & Nobriga, and then started my own firm with Craig Hill in 1996, where I have been since.

Peter and I were in the same class at Hayward High School. I knew he joined the Marines right out of high school - and we pretty much lost track of each other until a high school reunion a few years back. I recently heard him on a different podcast talk about the conspiracy against the leaders of the United States of which Lincoln's assassination was a part of. I was also very interested in his quest to find out how the moral code of the Odd Fellows, "Friendship, Love and Truth", was upheld during the United States Civil War. I, too, find it of upmost interest and a personal goal - to uphold the practice and valor of Love at the times when it is most challenging to myself. The following is from his current book, How Friendship, Love, and Truth, Survived the American Civil War... and I hope you appreciate episode 50 as much as I do. (you can purchase the book with this link): Peter V. Sellars is a recognized historian in the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. His first two history books, The Independent Order of Odd Fellows in the City of San Francisco and Calling Out From The Past: The First Odd Fellows Home in California, were well received. In 2005, he established a fraternal museum in San Francisco to maintain books and other items unique to the Odd Fellows. The offices that he has held in the Order have given him greater access to sources, materials, and contacts throughout the United States, which led to the creation of this most recent book relating the Odd Fellows to the Civil War. Sellars holds a BS degree from California State University, Hayward (East Bay), and is retired from the U.S. Marine Corps. He and his wife live in the San Francisco Bay Area. full false 1:02:30 https://gregorywilker.com/episode-49-late-audio-life/ Wed, 12 Jun 2019 15:08:48 +0000 http://www.gregorywilker.com/?p=629 Part of why I continue to do my podcast is a practice in discipline.

I met Justin one the production of BAJA—he's one of the producers. He's also an actor, musician/rapper, stand-up comedy… is there anything this guy doesn't do?

Barry really wanted to be able to show his work. He expressed interest in wanting to do a follow-up… And it makes sense to me: The picture is worth ten thousand words. So — i threw out the standard sitting down format that I've been working with for the past five seasons and we shot episode 47 Cinéma Vérité style. Besides; my quest is to find the rules that can't be broken and live by them. Barry may not agree, an artist's work is very personal to them — yes? However, I think in the infinite energy of life, Barry reaches into the flow and pulls out a moment, maintaining the essence of the infinite and showing it in a caught moment. I especially see it with his dogmotion series — there is one image in particular that remains with me; communicating infinite life in motion. However, art is best experienced for oneself. So I hope you enjoy this off the rule book episode 47. And I recommend checking out all Barry's works that he has online at: barrytoranto.com. P.S.

I see in him a lot of the attributes I want to live strongly by; mostly Joy and Patience. Needless to say, I am very heartened to be opening my sixth season with him as a guest. This bio is from his website: Photography intrigued me as a teenager, I attended my first workshop in 1973 at The Naples Mills School of Arts and Crafts near Ithaca, New York. My college career yielded a BA in photography from Goddard College in 1978 and included a semester at the San Francisco Art Institute. My vision is to capture and express images that both embrace and reach beyond the here and now. Photography is an alchemical process – the subject is the raw material, the gold is an image that expresses universal truth beyond that subject, one that makes us think and remember, and ultimately, see the world in a new and different light.

Kornfeld. My words are going to fall short at this time to describe who they are and what our conversation was about. I can say it was at a telling time in US History as a new supreme court justice had been nominated and was going through the hearings involved with the confirmation process. This was taped about a month ago and a lot has transpired since that taping. Besides an overall uplifting, what I recall that wonderful afternoon spent with September and Sarah, is the healing communication regarding the charged political event of that confirmation process  — and the overall bravery I witnessed in both women. Since words are falling short, or time and energy on my part, I am posting from their bios more about September & Sarah. September Williams is an American physician-writer, bioethicist and filmmaker. All of her work seeks a better understanding of and between ourselves. She focuses on promoting resilience for people who are ill, aging, dying, or stressed by environmental and humanitarian violation. Yet, her writing is fired by the humor which allows people and characters to make it through hard times. Her first novel, and the first in a series of three books, is Chasing Mercury, a romance-suspense-memoir about families committed to human and environmental rights. September's nonfiction writing covers health disparities, bioethics and film. She is a member of the National Writers Union (AFLCIO/UAW 1981), an affiliate of the International Federation of Journalists, and the American Society for Bioethics and Humanities. (She is also the founder of Cove International Publishers and published The Elephant In the Room: Bioethical Concerns in Human Milk Banking early last month.) Sarah Kornfeld‘s experience with seizure, art and the ocean as medicine led her to write What Stella Sees, an adventure in magical realism in which all characters are forced to face creatures from their own depths. What Stella Sees, weaves a complex tale of love, art, and transformation spanning from San Francisco to Israel, Bucharest to Paris. Kornfeld was born and raised in the experimental theater that is New York City. She is a graduate of Sarah Lawrence College and has taught cultural curation at the University of San Francisco. Sarah is a founding member of the Blue Mind Collective studying the impact of the ocean on our lives and well-being. Sarah is a proud member of the National Writers Union. She was published in The Journal of Brand Strategy out of the United Kingdom*. Her debut novel is published by Cove International Press. www.sarahkornfeld.net   …the more i discover about who i was in the room with — the more I realize what an honor it was that they shared their time with me.

Her experiences and practices are way beyond my bounds of knowledge and sometimes beyond my areas of comfort. That said, I trust her implicitly and I'm really pleased that she is willing to start Season Four off... and she bravely does so. You can learn more about her with these links: http://ChristinaGerber.com Links to My Affiliates and Favorite Vendors: My Nikken Wellness Store, StarWest, Young Living & ZNatural http://StellarSkulls.com Transform with your favorite crystal skull The Crystalline Stellar Skulls are angelic, sentient beings who came to Team Earth.

Episode 27 finds me visiting one of my current three Moms: Trishana Healy. Trishana fills my life with Light & Love every time I have the honor of being in her presence. She brings wisdom and patience... and did I mention Light & Love. I can't think of a better way to end Season III of LIVE WITH GREG... I hope this finds you all doing wonderfully!   full false 54:18 https://gregorywilker.com/live-with-greg-season-3-episode-26-systems-of-consciousness/ Fri, 11 Nov 2016 08:30:27 +0000 http://www.gregorywilker.com/?p=344 I had the pleasure of hanging out with Michael Gusek for episode #26. I first came to know of Michael from an article about his work with artificial intelligence and mass unstructured data. This is a topic of fascination for me. Learning that he lived close by, I contacted him with an invite to be a guest for LIVE WITH GREG. …and he agreed!! Michael is an "A.I. Product Professional", co-founder of Sensai - which recently was acquired by Sovereign Intelligence. "With our proprietary library of full-spectrum Internet data and our new deep learning platform, we find patterns in large textual datasets, whether external to the network or internal to the enterprise." We discussed AI, evolution of thoughts - shifts and struggles consciousness undergoes in its evolutionary shifts. For me - I could have hung out a lot longer then I did.

And I knew that was part of doing a regularly scheduled show - that's in part why I'm doing it; to learn about that. However, I have no regrets at all that my youngest daughter stepped in to guest on episode 25. We'd just got back from the Zero Breast Cancer Dipsea Hike - and we're shalaxing - and she agreed to do this episode with me. Her first one is one of my favorites; I'm happy to have her back. So sit back and enjoy the company of one of the best human beings I know; Bodhi.   full false 13:00 https://gregorywilker.com/live-with-greg-season-3-episode-24-living-strong/ Sun, 11 Sep 2016 07:30:22 +0000 http://www.gregorywilker.com/?p=330 It's 9/11. I'm grateful that this episode is with one of the strongest human beings i've ever known.. and he's physically strong; more important to me - his Spirit is strong. JT Peterson of Ripped Body Fitness honored me with his time and energy for episode 24. I've been graced with the opportunity to work out with JT, his brother Jake and training coach Marcus... I've learned about health, physical fitness and nutrition. Most importantly, I've learned by their example that it all comes from our strength of spirit.

This time the camera didn't record everything... however, the external mic got it all - and really, what is being communicated is what is most important - right? This episode I had the honor of spending time with Catherine Stone. I was introduced to her by my eldest daughter, Robyn, via helping out with a school project... and I was intrigued by what I saw at Catherine's home - and by Catherine herself. In her own words: "I am a birth and post-partum doula, and a lactation specialist. I support women in birth and afterwards. I teach soul to soul communication between mother and baby (and father and baby)." We discuss the balance of fe/male energies... and a peaceful life.

Unfortunately; I wasn't on my best game - I didn't hear all the ambient noise until I was editing... darn it!

Using his unique humorous style, he empowers his young audience with social and emotional skills and influences them to make good choices. While in your community, Mr. Pritchard offers sessions for faculty, administration and parents as well as facilitating small break out sessions. I really could go on and on about him; I told you, he's one of my heroes! Probably best if you just sit back and listen… as I did.

Antoinetta owned and operated Lucille’s, an "Eclectic Menu, Non Smoking, Veggies Galore" restaurant located downtown Mill Valley from 1988 – 1994.
