  Wired for Connection - The...

  Wired for Connection are the lessons clients taught a therapist over a career about love, courage, vulnerability, shame and authenticity 
  Therapists learn and grow from therapy with clients--and now you can too!  
  Carolyn graduated from counselling school with a ton of head knowledge. Carolyn read 1000’s of pages and written hundreds more and learned the models and the approaches in the books. Did this therapist know enough to actually help people? 
  Turns out she didn’t. 
  That’s where her clients come in. They taught her about life, about therapy, and about relationships. 
  So much of what clients taught her was paradoxical. Actually, they didn’t teach her—the most important lessons in life are better caught than taught. The lessons were counterintuitive to conventional relationship wisdom. 
  Together they learned the way to real relationships was messiness, mistakes and discomfort. They noticed the route to acceptance was authenticity, that tears make life better, and that raw courage is often about tender things like saying, “I’m sorry” and “I love you”. And so much more. 
  Relationships are hard—but we are wired for them. We are wired for struggle and growth. Watching people struggle with their own lives has inspired her to struggle and grow in hers. 
  Relationships are hard for us all. But if we show up to connect, and we do it anything like right, we learn from each other. We learn from each other in ways that surprise and delight us. 
  We are wired for connection.

  Essays: First Series Heroism

  Ralph Waldo Emerson

  True heroism does not seek applause. It does not wear armor or demand recognition. It walks quietly, steady in its purpose, untouched by fear or flattery. In Heroism, Ralph Waldo Emerson strips away the illusions of grandeur and reveals the essence of courage: a quiet, unwavering commitment to one's own principles.
  This is not a celebration of warriors or conquerors but of those who face the world with integrity, who move through life unshaken by its storms. Emerson's hero is not molded by circumstance but by an inner law, a deep sense of self that refuses to bend to convention or compromise. True bravery, he argues, is not found in extraordinary moments but in the quiet persistence of a soul that remains true to itself.
  Part of Essays: First Series, Heroism is an invitation to look beyond the theatrical and into the enduring. It is a reminder that the greatest strength is not in domination but in self-possession. To read it is to reconsider what it means to be fearless.

  Speaking by the Numbers -...

  It's not just what you say, but how you say it. Good communicators know this, but it's often easier said than done. Teachers, leaders, and speakers are often left bewildered, wondering why the content that was so carefully planned and delivered seems to fall flat with the audience. The art of communication requires more than the transfer of information; it both connects with and engages the hearer. To communicate well, speakers must understand both their audience and themselves. 
   
   
   
  Speaking by the Numbers offers a strategy that combines communication principles with Enneagram wisdom to help leaders, pastors, and teachers understand how to convey content in ways that both inspire and connect with their audiences. Using the Enneagram wisdom of triads and stances, communicators can learn insight into the ways that various Enneagram numbers receive and process information. Sean Palmer draws from his extensive experience as a public speaker to develop communication strategies that lead to connection, transformation, and mobilization of audiences. Providing real examples of speeches he has given, Palmer shows how he uses the Enneagram to craft a message that connects with his audience. 
   
   
   
  A healthy marriage of Enneagram wisdom and communication skill can help us speak with clarity into the heart of where people live, love, and experience life.

  The Japanese Famine of 1782-1788...

  The Tenmei era, spanning from 1781 to 1789, marked one of the most tumultuous periods in early modern Japanese history. Under the rule of the Tokugawa shogunate, Japan faced a complex web of challenges that created the perfect storm for one of the country’s most devastating famines. The political leadership at the time struggled to manage internal pressures, while nature unleashed a series of disasters that exposed deep structural weaknesses in Japanese society and governance. 
  Politically, the Tokugawa regime was already under strain. After more than 150 years of relative stability, cracks had begun to appear in the shogunate’s centralized control. Corruption was increasingly evident among regional officials, and the rigid class system left little room for social mobility or adaptive governance. Daimyōs, or feudal lords, often prioritized local interests over national concerns, making unified responses to crises difficult. These issues weakened the ability of the central government to respond decisively to the hardships that were beginning to unfold. 
  Economically, Japan in the late 18th century was a fragile system, heavily reliant on rice production. Despite modest attempts at economic reform, the country remained vulnerable to crop failure, inflation, and regional imbalances. Merchant classes were rising in wealth and influence, while peasants bore the brunt of heavy taxation and poor harvests. The disconnect between economic policy and rural reality would prove fatal when disaster struck.
