  • From Success to Service
    May 19 2026

    Nimo Patel’s story follows several forms of success, including business, music, entrepreneurship, and performance, before arriving at a deeper definition of purpose. The episode reveals how the recognition of misalignment can become a doorway into service when one is willing to listen, change course, and release attachment to outcomes. Nimo’s work with children in Ahmedabad becomes the clearest expression of this shift, where art is not the mission but the shared practice that makes dignity, belonging, and transformation possible. The episode also explores how music and presence can create connection, whether in prisons or universities.

  • What US Students Learned Living on $2 a day
    May 12 2026

    Shirin Karsan, a former refugee from Uganda, long-time educator, and peacebuilder, explores how conflict, bias, and disconnection persist when we fail to pay attention to our relationality. Drawing from immersive experiences she developed as a college professor when she joined her students in an experiment to live on $2/day in preparation for their service work in Africa –she illustrates how perspective shifts occur when people confront their assumptions and recognize their interdependence. Without this awareness, conflict can escalates into division and harm, but with it, even disagreement can become a pathway to connection and change.
