June 23, 2019 17:00 - 1 hour - 59.2 MB

In this episode, Leslie gives us an update on his new job with Vogsy (https://vogsy.com), where he is the new VP of Customer Services.

In this episode, we talk about what our first Easter was like after both of us left the Christian Church. For the past few years, we haven't really celebrated Easter in a religious context, opting for brunch with friends or just our own little quiet family egg hunt and special breakfast. This year, we participated in the Easter programming at our Universalist Unitarian fellowship: our first religious holiday separated from our religion of origin. First, we talk about where we are at, spiritua...

February 28, 2019 17:00 - 50 minutes - 46.5 MB

In this episode, we talk about media consumption - what media held a deep influence in our early years, what’s been recently life-changing and what we’re currently enjoying. We talk about what it’s like to give ourselves permission to simply enjoy the media we love, and how it enriches our lives and relationships. And we wonder if we need to be more critical about our indulgences, making room for other activities. All of this leads into next episode’s topic: Kids and Media.

In this episode, we share a few last thoughts on the Identity series, including our experience attending the UU fellowship two weeks in a row. Leslie reports that he's quite confident about his choice to no longer call himself a Christian - it feels like an act of protest. We talk a little bit about what has changed for us, and for the podcast, in 2018 since we moved our identity from Marriage Startup to Glimmering, and added the "live justly" aspect to our focus.

(https://amzn.to/2DtVMvP), and the mindblowing Seeing White (http://www.sceneonradio.org/seeing-white/) podcast series. The Identity series is a "Learning Out Lo...

We talk about our religious upbringing and Jesusy stuff in an exploratory, not preachy way, but the topic is what it is, if you need to avoid it.

Episode 72: Laura’s Sabbatical, the Importance of Holding Space

January 29, 2018 16:00 - 49 minutes - 46.7 MB

In this episode, we talk about Laura’s plans for a sabbatical. She’s finished her year-long coaching certification courses, but instead of diving straight into paying work, she has found she needs to take a step back and do a lot of internal work first.
