All is not going to plan. 9:37

9:37

The wintering will continue, and season four of Meandering Conversations are put on hold. For how long, no one knows. There might be the sporadic pod episode in this feed though, perhaps me reading a few blog posts, the occasional solitary reflection or perhaps a random meandering conversation or two. Who knows. In the meantime, if you need a dose …

I am no longer willing to step up when others claim that my words, my deeds, my actions, are what angers them, what upsets them or what scares them.

2:06:16

“The main aspect is always ‘Oh, these are people I would like to spend 10, 20 hours with!’ And I think that needs to be there because of the way the setup is.” ~ Helena It has to be. Otherwise I’d never make it to the end of season three, which is where we’re at right now. Spending this long with every one of my partners in crime, if I didn’t like …

1:46:06

Season three is approaching the end, and we are concluding with two group-conversations (as we’ve never managed to get a date that works for all the participants of one season). Here you will meet me, Bella and Özlem, as well as Caspian, my friend and pod-producer, who will be facilitating the episode, to make sure we stay somewhat on topic. Which …

79. I am the container | with Bella 1:43:19

1+ y ago1:43:19

1:43:19

Fifth and final conversation of the third season. Wrapping it up by having two group conversations (trying to get seven people to settle on one date with commitments and other engagements as well as time zones to juggle is a bit like trying to herd cat’s. Not the easiest. Hence: two conversations!), but still… a door closes. And another opens? Or ‘…

78. Light and dark, always dancing | with Özlem Tan 1:25:16

1+ y ago1:25:16

1:25:16

In a conversation around inner light as well as darkness, it’s so easy to substitute light and dark for good/bad, or positive/negative. And I have. For the longest time. But I am reclaiming my darkness, waking my inner bitch up; wanting, needing, a bit less of the goodie-two-shoes facet of myself, and a bit more edge, more anger, more holy wrath. ‘…

77. Conversations that help me be more me | with Luke Aymon 2:03:54

2:03:54

Connecting dots with Luke in this our fifth conversation (not to worry, Özlem number five will be published, once it’s recorded…). Dots coming from all places. A recent work assignment. Therapy sessions with Dominic. The book circle I’m running on Women Who Run With the Wolves. Episode 75 where me and Kate spoke about where getting a slight buzz he…

76. How is your heart today? | with Mandell 2:00:06

1+ y ago2:00:06

2:00:06

The bittersweetness of closing season three with the fifth conversation with each and every one of my meandering conversation-partners is matched by the seasonal shift that’s upon me – fall is coming. There’s still vegetables and fruit to harvest, the warmth from sunshine makes me toss my jacket aside, and trees are only just starting to change col…

75. Dance like there’s no one watching | with Kate Inglis 2:17:12

2:17:12

Hard to believe that me and Kate have had our fifth and final conversation [well. For this season of the pod, not forever. We will continue to have conversations, I guarantee it. But perhaps not as often. Perhaps not as long. And not recorded for a pod.]. And what a conversation we had! “I don't want to be stone cold sober for the rest of my life, …

74. A plethora of inner voices | with Bella 1:30:53

1+ y ago1:30:53

1:30:53

I enjoy wise words, collect quotes or longer paragraphs from books I read, videos I watch (I’ve been tweeting single sentence words of wisdom from whatever I am currently watching. During the summer it was Downton Abbey, right now it’s Game of Thrones…), podcasts I listen to etc. I’ve got little words of wisdom saved in many places (…and you don’t …

73. It's very easy to should/would/could yourself | with Luke Aymon 1:47:25

1+ y ago1:47:25

1:47:25

I enjoy having meandering conversations. Period. Give me a soul willing and eager to partake in such an explorative undertaking and I am happy. But there’s something special in having this type of conversation with someone much younger than me, and Luke is just that. “I think everything can be a portal, a prompt, a door that might open, a seed. The…

72. Dancing, a metaphor for life | with Özlem Tan 1:20:12

1+ y ago1:20:12

1:20:12

Do you dance? I asked Özlem, only to have him ask how I defined dance. I didn’t give him an answer, because for me, dancing is so much more than ‘dancing’… (ok, bear with me for just a while longer:) “I had a coach who used to say ‘Dance with whatever comes knocking on the door’. Ever since, I've been using dance as a metaphor, as an inspiration, a…

71. The short and long arcs of time | with Mandell 2:02:02

1+ y ago2:02:02

2:02:02

It fascinates me how me and Mandell cannot speak without dropping at least a douzen book titles/recommendations or so. This episode is not different in that regards, but before we went all booking, I shared a story of the adventures of Pop the cat, who was definitely cheating on me during the summer, while on vacation in Vejbystrand where my mom li…

70. Questions on curating life | with Kate Inglis 2:12:08

1+ y ago2:12:08

2:12:08

A failure of curiosity is what it is, Kate said towards the end of our fourth conversation… and what she’s not pointing to is us, as I am sure there’s never been a Tankespjärn-episode with as many questions, ever. Questions on curating life: “I curate my life. It's on me to make. What do I want my life to be? How do I want it to be, where do I want…

69. Yes lives in the land of no | with Bella 1:26:18

1+ y ago1:26:18

1:26:18

Picking up on the thread from our last conversation, Bella asks me about the quotation I’d just handed in back then… which has us go down an interesting route of how to face rejection. I am better at facing professional rejections, like getting a No on a quotation, or, for that matter, not really getting any response at all. Personally, I would lik…

67. Find what makes you tick | with Özlem Tan 1:17:25

1+ y ago1:17:25

1:17:25

In our third conversation Özlem helped me see something about myself that I’ve never noticed before. I’ve always thought the common thread to everything I’ve done in life, at least from a professional standpoint, has been about change and improvement. I’ve called myself an Agent of Change for many years by now because of that belief. But Özlem made…

66. A modern band of brothers | with Mandell 2:02:38

1+ y ago2:02:38

2:02:38

Mandell has some serious friendships going on, let me tell you. His story blasted my preconceived notions right out of the water, and I absolutely love it when that happens! You see… I have it in my mind that men are ‘worse at friendships’ than women. Laying down flat on my back, showing you my exposed neck, coming clean as a person with prejudices…

65. Questions matter | with Kate Inglis 2:20:02

2y ago2:20:02

2:20:02

Season three, round three of meandering conversations means we’re at the midway point, and somehow it always catches me by surprise. As always, me and Kate meander quite significantly, and if you’ve been counting Kate-rants, there’s a couple in this episode too. Her rants don’t really feel like rants to me though, they are more musings that are all…

64. Discernment is flexible and judgment is rigid | with Bella 1:28:25

2y ago1:28:25

1:28:25

Bella has a knack of asking poignant questions that open a wide expanse in front of me, or us, and off we go. Down deep, continuing on the theme from our last conversation. During this our second (recorded) conversation it became clear to me how I’ve come to a place where it’s much easier for me to stand my ground, feel centered and secure, in my s…

63. What is your pain trying to tell you? | with Luke Aymon 1:48:16

2y ago1:48:16

1:48:16

Just before me and Luke had our second conversation (this one!) I listened to him in (a podcast-) conversation with Eyal Shay on pain, which made me curious. ‘Pain is generally a signal that contains information worth listening to, worth parsing and figuring out ‘Well, what is it trying to tell me?’ Because if you figure that out, it's more likely …

62. Parenting: the reactions of the parent | with Özlem Tan 1:47:20

2y ago1:47:20

1:47:20

Without rules and guidelines, would anarchy ensue? Isn’t that what we (me, you, others?!) believe? Or are taught to believe? That anarchy is the natural outcome if there aren’t any rules. I don’t think it necessarily would be. Perhaps because I don’t think we, humans, function without rules. That is, even if there weren’t any rules, or they were re…

61. Each person has had their own journey here | with Mandell 1:18:23

2y ago1:18:23

1:18:23

Mandell spent a week in Senegal before we met up for our second conversation, and I was following his adventures on Instagram. When I came across a video of him walking just a few meters behind two big lions, I almost choked! I mean, those are some seriously respect-inducing animals, for sure! So of course, I ask Mandell about this, eager to find o…

60. My precious, my trauma, my pain | with Kate Inglis 2:13:09

2y ago2:13:09

2:13:09

When me and Kate hook up for our second conversation of five, she’s just come home after a week off the grid in a tiny cabin on Windhorse Farm. There she practiced self-care, but don’t tell her I said that as she positively hates that word/concept… both of which she professes to in this conversation. “It was […] wonderful just to spend time with my…

59. I don’t want to do the good thing. I want to do the real thing. | with Bella 1:41:09

2y ago1:41:09

1:41:09

Bella was a calming presence in an online meet-up I attended last fall, having me reach out afterwards, inviting her to a one-on-one conversation. Lucky for me, she accepted, and we’ve had a few since then. Wise. Calm. With an energy that makes me feel good when I am around it. So I am thrilled to have her as my fifth conversation partner for seaso…

58. We try to fix everything. Maybe there is no fixing to be done? | with Luke Aymon 1:53:35

2y ago1:53:35

1:53:35

Last season Twitter gifted me Reddy. This season’s Twitter gift is Luke Aymon, whom I connected with thanks to Reddy, who plays a lot with Eyal Shay (who’s podcast I guested), who in turn speaks a lot with Luke… and somewhere along those lines, mine and Luke’s paths crossed and we struck up a conversation. My hunch was that here’s a person whom I w…

57. Role models in our own relations | with Özlem Tan 2:03:17

2y ago2:03:17

2:03:17

First time I set eyes on Özlem Tan was during a leadership-training we both attended a few years back. I liked how he showed up there, and ever since, we’ve kept in touch, having interesting conversations which made me invite him to the third season of the podcast. - Where are you from? - I'm from Helsingborg. - No, no, no, I mean like from the beg…

56. Books are wisdom just laying about in your house | with Mandell Conway 1:24:40

2y ago1:24:40

1:24:40

Books! Who knew me and Mandell Conway, conversation-partner number two for this third season of meandering conversations, would spend a whole episode talking abouts books. (Well. More or less. Not 100% perhaps. But a lot. And as I am a book buff I was pleasantly surprised to find a book buff-friend in Mandell). You see, I know Mandell more for the …

Season three is upon us, and thus I get to introduce five new people to you! First up is Kate Inglis. A lovely woman I connected with on Twitter after she reached out a hand. And you’ve experienced it yourself, I am sure, when you first connect with someone and you just know that there’s something there, haven’t you? A liking, an affinity, a knowin…

Wrapping up season two I am filled with gratitude for the experience. All of it. From inviting conversation partners to setting up the first conversations, thoroughly enjoying conversations two and three, experiencing tugs at my heartstrings in conversation four and when finding times for the group reflections, to being a bit lost-for-words during …

Rounding off season two (How IS it possible, that I’ve already had another 5x5 conversations?!), we do a repeat of what we did at the end of season one: getting everyone from the season together to share what it’s been like to partake. Here’s the first of two group conversations, with me, Reddy, Steve and Inma, chaperoned by Caspian who’s my behind…
