  • How much longer ...

    ... do we have to wait for the promised sequel to your to-date-lone novel???

    Frankly I blame Martha for he-who-I-won't-name-here ... life imitating art & all that magic ... & therefore for the ensuing state of the world ...

    Perhaps we're ready for the next instalment ...

    Or maybe just an incantatory reprise of the denouement of the last one ...

    Just a thought 😏

  • Gathering room

    I have read all of Martha’s books and I’m up-to-date on all of her podcasts. In fact, I’m going back to the beginning of the gathering room podcast and starting again. She’s responsible for so much personal growth. She is one of the most important teachers in my life ever. Thank you so much.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Joy of Failure
Q: How can I access stillness in a hard moment without a long preparation?
Practice dropping in regularly so when a crisis hits you can quickly shift into stillness; even a short, guided exercise can reset your nervous system.
The Joy of Failure
Q: Any tips for someone who has come out and lost everything, including financial support?
Acknowledge the pain, but also recognize you are not defined by external validation or social structures; the path to integrity can bring a deeper happiness and a truer sense of self.
The Unknown World
Q: Any advice for people who resist routine in this phase of change?
If a routine feels natural, do it; if not, let it go. The era demands flexibility, looseness, and improvisation rather than rigid structure.
The Unknown World
Q: What else would you suggest to keep the faith while you focus on your own metamorphosis?
Balance personal change with loosening attachments to outcomes; allow people or possibilities to come and go, stay open to what remains and what evolves, and lean into supportive, relaxed communities.
What to Do With Pain
Q: How can I apply this to channeling a new financial future when the pressure around it seems constant and endless?
Relax with the fear of financial instability and let the good force enter through relaxed attention. When you soften around the fear, opportunities and creativity can surface, often leading to practical steps you wouldn't have considered when gripping the problem.
