  • My safe place

    In April of this year (2026) I got a concussion which limited me to podcasts. I don’t follow any podcasts but when I stumbled on the Telepathy Tapes, I was put on Martha Beck.

    Weeks later of listening to her as a guest on various podcasts, and discovering TGR - I can confidently say I’m a super fan! I’m 6 yrs out of a conventional life and corporate career and TGR is my daily hope. Thank you Martha, her beloveds, and her family for producing such rich stories and material to enrich my life.

  • Tracee Stanley interview …

    I love your podcast, have read several of your books and feel compelled to write you with some advice. You gave Tracee Stanley a wonderful introduction including how her book had touched/influenced you. When you have a guest like that, people come to hear the guest’s thoughts, not yours. For as long as I could stand it, you dominated the conversation with long-winded questions. I doubt in the context of this interview, anyone would have been interested in your awakening at age 29. My advice: hav... more

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Invisible Network
Q: I'm a recent college grad trying to build my economic ecosystem with architecture and design. The standardized 9 to 5 feels itchy in my soul. What advice do you have to my income and my integrity?
Beck recommends using creativity to find work that feels less constraining, exploring what fascinates the listener, and building connections with people and opportunities related to architecture and design.
The Invisible Network
Q: Do you think that tuning into wordlessness can help draw us to connections that are nourishing for us and romantic partnerships? And is there a way to do this that you find works best?
Beck says quieting the mind and allowing periods of stillness can make a person more receptive to nourishing connections. She recommends tuning into yearning, which she sees as a deeper desire that can point toward meaningful relationships.
Let the Day Unfold
Q: How do we find the magic to find our people?
Beck suggests following what brings delight, joy, fascination, wonder, and curiosity, and staying present with those interests to discover meaningful connections.
Let the Day Unfold
Q: I'm curious about Martha's thoughts around working through grief as it relates to signs and symbols.
Beck advises allowing possible signs from a deceased loved one without demanding certainty or repeatedly seeking confirmation. She says fear and doubt can accompany spiritual experiences, and the aim is a peaceful heart.
The Memory Rewrite
Q: Question. Is it safe to say therapy should precede this?
Therapy is considered important for validating experiences and providing perspective, though the host notes not everyone has access to therapy and suggests journaling as an alternative to begin reconsolidation.
