Hey there, good life project listeners.
So I want to share something special with you this week.
It is an episode of a podcast that I'm really enjoying called need a lift.
It's hosted by Tim Shriver.
So Tim has spent years of experience working as an educator and with athletes and leaders of the Special Olympics movement around the world.
And through his work, he's found that really, the best way to build community, to connect people, is at the soul level.
And that is why his podcast, need a lift features guests who have transformed painful moments in their lives into purpose through spiritual rituals and practices.
Guests like best selling novelist Min Jin Lee talking about why she creates complicated characters who hold the secret to our transformation, or writer Simon Sinek on why idealism belongs in the workplace and Olympic athlete Michael Phelps and his wife Nicole talking about the importance of cultivating an inner life in competition, mental health, and in their marriage, too.
Need a lift is truly the antidote to the hatred and despair that we are all just exhausted of hearing, giving us hope that change is possible.
In this episode, the office's Rainn Wilson explains how we can quiet the world's chaos and deal with our collective sense of overwhelm by believing in something bigger than us.
Okay, here comes the preview.
You can hear more need a lyft episodes wherever you get podcasts I'll never.
Forget a kind of a mystical, transcendent experience I had when I was maybe twelve, where we were at a baha'I youth gathering and we'd been doing like, some service work, and we were all sleeping outside.
And it was a clear night, just all of these stars.
And thinking about them, how distant they were and how beautiful they are and feeling the presence of the divine in my life through the stars.
I'm Tim Shriver, and this is need a lift.
A show where each week I get the privilege of talking to people who give me reasons to believe in us.
I need.
I need a lift to my soul for my worries and my woes they weigh me down.
Wow.
