  • Running Lake Michigan Podcast (RLMP) #1 - Introduction
    Nov 19 2020

    On this episode of the Edge of Comfort Podcast I introduce my next adventure: Running Lake Michigan!

    Starting early 2021 (aiming for January), I am running over 1,100 miles around the perimeter of Lake Michigan in 36 days to raise money for the Alzheimer’s Association.

    Learn about the Why behind the run and details about the run itself. I also answer a few fan questions throughout the episode and at the end.

    To learn more about the run, go to https://www.runninglakemichigan.com/.

  • #30: Lena Papadopoulos - Using Intercultural Learning as a Tool for Self-Discovery, Awareness, and Healing
    Dec 19 2019

    You can find the full episode description and show notes at https://edgeofcomfort.com/eocp30/

    "We reject other people because we have rejected ourselves. We are separate from other people because we are separate from who we are. Through the conditioning, we learn to become someone else and we deny our truth so often and live out these limiting beliefs that we develop. The unhappiness that exists within us is projected out into the world.” - Lena Papadopoulos On this episode of the Edge of Comfort Podcast, Lena Papadopoulos and I talk about her work as an intercultural educator, the impact and expectations created from cultural conditioning, examining and breaking our limiting beliefs, how to catalyze self-discovery, understanding identity, and more. Lena Papadopoulos (IG) is an award-winning interculturalist, facilitator, and coach. Lena believes the division between us is a projection of the pain within us. This means that healing the collective begins with healing ourselves. Lena empowers individuals to break free from their conditioning so they can reconnect with themselves, embrace who they truly are, and embody their unique potential. Lena’s approach is a unique alchemy of her educational and professional background in sociology, psychology, cultural anthropology, intercultural education, and leadership development.
