This time on The Gathering Room, I offer up a thought that’s helped me and my clients for years: We’re all meant to live in peace—that’s our real home. I share why chasing the future keeps us anxious, and how dropping into peace in the present moment... more

Sometimes in life, things go bash and bonk us right in the face, knocking us completely out of the way we were living. When life shatters our familiar patterns this way, we look around in panic and ask, “Oh my God, what do we do now?” In this episode... more

Recently I asked for a sign that a painting I’d been working on was the right course for me. The next day, a stranger’s near-death story described my painting almost perfectly. That coincidence reminded me of James Carse’s book Finite and Infinite Ga... more

  • 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 😏

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Bliss of the Infinite Game
Q: Can belief shift you from Finite to Infinite Games?
Believing in an overarching Infinite Game creates space for meaning beyond immediate outcomes, allowing signs and synchronicities to guide action and reduce the fear-driven pull toward complete control.
The Bliss of the Infinite Game
Q: Is it possible to mix Finite and Infinite Games, like paying bills while staying in the Infinite mindset?
Yes, you can handle finite responsibilities within the larger, ongoing flow of the Infinite Game by prioritizing creative engagement and relationship, then returning to practical tasks with a calmer, less driven urgency.
The Bliss of the Infinite Game
Q: How do we know what our Infinite Game is?
The Infinite Game is guided by what refuses to stop calling you back—your talent, your repetitive engagement with a craft, and a sense of inner compulsion that persists beyond short-term gains.
Your Unthinkable Next Step
Q: If we move away from the thing we have always wanted to be, is there a way to return to it more wholeheartedly?
There is always everything and nothing is lost; everything is iterative and time is not real, so you can return to your path in a more wholehearted way when guided by your body, heart, and spirit rather than the mind.
In Joy Ment
Q: How do you stop the voice of fear and anxiety when you're in joy?
Acknowledge the negativity bias with humor, train your attention away from doom by returning to present-moment enjoyment, and practice repeated, small acts of pleasure to rewire your brain.
