Our capacity to say a real, genuine, heartfelt ‘yes’ depends upon our ability to also say ‘no’ when it’s called for.

July 09, 2019 09:56 - 31 minutes - 29.2 MB

Our lives are made more difficult than they might be by our insistence that things should be a certain way that we’ve imagined or seen in the lives of others.

84: The Call to Live Everything

May 12, 2019 13:13 - 33 minutes - 30.6 MB

We are so often afraid of our own aliveness that we'll cover it up with an image, a role, or an identity that's been handed to us by others.

A conversation about not turning away with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace. Here’s Episode 84 of Turning Towards Life, a weekly live 30 minute conversation hosted by Thirdspace in which Justin Wise and Li...

83: Famous

May 05, 2019 09:27 - 33 minutes - 30.9 MB

What’s the cost of our constant comparison with others, with a life we think we’re meant to be living, or with our past or future selves? There’s a good reason why comparison has been called ‘the thief of joy’. So what happens when we find a way, instead, of bringing ourselves whole-heartedly as we are, to the life we’re already living? A conversation about not turning away with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace. Here’s Episode 83 of Turning Towards Life, a weekly live 30 minute co...

82: Thanks

April 28, 2019 09:33 - 33 minutes - 30.5 MB

Even in the darkest of situations can we find a way to be joyful? Is there a kind of gratitude which isn't a turning away from the gravity of things?

A conversation about not turning away with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace. Here's Episode 82 of Turning Towards Life, a weekly live 30 minute conversation hosted by Thirdspace in which Justin Wi...

81: Two Paths

April 21, 2019 09:34 - 34 minutes - 31.6 MB

In every moment we have a choice about how to meet the circumstances of our lives, and the cumulative effect of our choices adds up to a path we walk through life.

A conversation with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace. In this conversation we explore the ways in which our moment-to-moment interpretation shapes the way we bring...

80: The Place Where We Are Right

April 14, 2019 10:51 - 31 minutes - 28.7 MB

It's so gratifying to be right, but often it's our very rightness that strangles the life out of our relationships and out of our own existence. What can we do to soften our rightness and allow both doubt and love, so that something new can come in? A conversation with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace. In this conversation we consider together how easy and gratifying it can be to feel right, even right about our own uncertainty, and how easily 'rightness' strangles the life out of ...

April 07, 2019 11:14 - 33 minutes - 31.1 MB

78: Precious Time

March 31, 2019 13:56 - 34 minutes - 32 MB

The mystery of time and death. We explore two different ways that we turn away from the reality of time – either by tuning out from the fleeting nature of things and the urgency of our response, or by eating up time in a panicked flurry of frantic activity. Somewhere between the two, we discover, is a way in which we can meet time more directly, more lovingly, and in a more responsive way – and in a way that helps us both decide what matters and invest our activities with mattering.  Along ...

77: Let Us Begin the Journey Home

March 31, 2019 13:55 - 33 minutes - 31.6 MB

How should we respond to our confusing, complex times? Is there a way that we can find ourselves deep in the midst of the sacred ordinariness of life, ready to contribute and participate without being so convinced of our smallness, separateness or fear? A conversation with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace. This week we return to a poem by Rumi that calls to these confusing and complex times. We explore together what can happen as we soften ourselves so that life, in its bigger sens...

March 31, 2019 13:53 - 37 minutes - 34.5 MB

A conversation with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace. In this conversation we talk about the belonging in life that is supported by finding out that all the parts of us that we usually push away, and all the experiences too, also belong. We explore together how difficult it can be to welcome ourselves with...

76: Life While You Wait

March 31, 2019 13:52 - 33 minutes - 30.4 MB

What happens when we meet ‘what is’ with an open heart, and when we drop our demands that life somehow bend itself exactly to our will? A conversation with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace. What might it be to enter into the vast mystery of life with an attitude of welcome? What happens, we wonder, when we meet ‘what is’ with an open heart, and when we drop our demands that life somehow bend itself exactly to our will?

March 31, 2019 13:47 - 33 minutes - 30.3 MB

How can we see through the stories we have about life that have us either be too small (and which have us give up) or too big (when we demand that the world goes just our way)?

Turning Towards Life is a weekly live 30 minute conversation hosted by Thirdspace in which Justin Wise and Lizzie Winn dive deep i...

How might we live in life's mystery without being swallowed by fear, or losing touch with ourselves? A conversation about living with depth with Justin Wise and Lizzie Winn of Thirdspace.

March 31, 2019 13:45 - 30 minutes - 27.6 MB

How avoiding fear can shrink our lives. A conversation about living in an ever larger world, with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace.

March 31, 2019 13:42 - 35 minutes - 33 MB

Self-deception, our attempts to stay in control of everything, and the trouble that comes from all of it. Our source this week is an extract from a piece published on Justin's blog, justinwise.co.uk. We use it to launch into a conversation about self-deception, trying to stay in control of circumstances and experiences (and the cost of both), the trouble that comes from our attempts to manage our own image, the wisdom and delights of the enneagram as a way of understanding personality patte...

March 31, 2019 13:41 - 36 minutes - 33.4 MB

The difficult and live-giving work of both loving and grieving. A conversation about courage and tenderness with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace. In this conversation we consider together how easily our fear of loss can stop us from loving fully, how love and grief are but two sides of the same coin, and how we might step into both with a clear heart, courage and tenderness. And along the way we find much to be joyful about, and to laugh about. Turning Towards Life is a weekly li...

March 31, 2019 13:36 - 35 minutes - 32.3 MB

How we box ourselves into an identity - a conversation about shame, self-criticism and freedom with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace. One of the weirdest and yet most understandable features of being a human being is how we'll box ourselves in to an identity - a particular way of being in the world that allows this but doesn't allow that; a way that we lay out familiar territory for ourselves, fiercely bounded by shame and self-criticism, that easily stops us from bringing ourselve...

What is it to learn in a way that allows us to be more truthful, compassionate and alive? A conversation about community with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace.

63: Can You Just Love Me This Way?

March 31, 2019 13:29 - 36 minutes - 33.5 MB

This week we talk about poem Lizzie's sister Hollie wrote which has gone viral in the past year. We believe it’s so popular because of how harshly we treat our bodies in our minds and hearts, and Hollie's call for us to treat our bodies call with a simple, powerful loving-kindness. During our conversation we talk about what it is to know ourselves in a gentle way, to appreciate the miracle of an embodied life, and steps we might take to be less caught up in the punishing narrative of shame,...

64: When We Mistake Who We Are

March 31, 2019 13:28 - 34 minutes - 32 MB

Stepping in when life seems a mystery. A conversation about time, with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace. This week we talk about how we might understand the mystery of being human. So often both of us find ourselves in a place of real confusion, and it's tempting while there to treat the confusion as something wrong - either with life or with ourselves. We know this is true of many other people too. But there are bigger narratives to step into when life seems a mystery, or when thi...

61: Only One Wild Way

March 31, 2019 13:27 - 33 minutes - 31 MB

Turning Towards Life is a weekly live 30 minute conversation hosted by Thirdspace in which Justin Wise and Lizzie Winn dive deep into big questions of human living. You can find the source text and more information on this conversation...

62: Fear is Easy

March 31, 2019 13:27 - 33 minutes - 30.9 MB

How can we respond to fear without being 'had' by it? A conversation about courage and the act of remembering ourselves, with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace. This week our conversation covers the unavoidability of fear, how contagious it is, and the choices we must each make about whether to be uncritically 'had' by it, or whether to reach past it to bring forward other qualities that can help us to respond. Along the way we talk about the gifts we human beings can be to one anot...

60: How to be Happy

March 31, 2019 13:25 - 36 minutes - 33.5 MB

The possibility of happiness - living with our wonderful, messy humanity. A conversation about acceptance, with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace.

59: Breathing Life into This World

March 31, 2019 13:21 - 35 minutes - 32.1 MB

This week: how vulnerable and lost we human beings can feel, and how our attempts to distract ourselves from this and to appear 'ok' only tend to make things worse for us and those around us. We consider the life-giving possibilities of sharing our fears and confusions with others, what it is to trust that we're always part of something way bigger than ourselves, and the freedom that comes from knowing that being alive is always to be bringing something new into the world - even when we can'...

March 31, 2019 13:18 - 33 minutes - 30.7 MB

Standing up, speaking out, and putting ourselves on the line. A conversation about hope with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace. This week we ask what it takes to take action in the world – to actually stand up, speak out, and put ourselves at risk. We explore together how shaky it can feel to do this, and how necessary in a world that deeply needs each of our gifts to be brought and contribution to be made. We wonder together what kind of faith in life, and what kind of sense of bel...

58: The Midlife Journey

March 31, 2019 13:17 - 32 minutes - 30.2 MB

A conversation about mid-life transitions and transformation with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace. This week we explore together those giant transitions in life where we get remade from the outside in and from the inside out, if we’ll only let ourselves. We talk about some of the ways we resist being changed – out of fear and shame – and how life conspires in myriad ways to keep teaching us what we need to learn. And we consider the vital role of elders and community in helping on...

In the midst of our conversation we conside...
