We knew it was coming, we’ve had all the signs, but as of this Friday - April Fools on us? - The American dollar is no longer on top. What will that mean for all of us? How did it look in countries who have had this happen to them: Russia, Cuba, Argentina, and Venezuela? We take a look at this along with how it affects those who are wired to save the world and others at any cost to themselves. Thi...

On today’s podcast I am going to start introducing some of the hard truths that freedom require . I know from my 25+ years of working with people, institutions, and systems as a social worker, NO ONE ever wants truth. I invite you to sit through this audio and observe your reactions to it.  Its focus is on reclaiming the masculine energy for men, but for the women listening I invite you to think a...

I have been doing a lot of thinking, listening, and wondering about this time we are in. Overwhelm is just one word. But for me, fatigue is the greater issue. One of the things I keep hearing is let go. That can mean so many thngs, today in the podcast I wanted to explore an idea that may be unwelcome - but may also be necessary. Let me know what you think about it! This is a public episode. If yo...

Right now things are moving fast! This is part one, part two is for subscribers (also posted today) addressing the divide between our mental and intellectual thinking and our emotional resisting to what is. Maybe you are serene right now, but I am not! I hope what we discuss helps - let me know! Jill This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access t...

Welcome Clan Pride! We are a small but growing community that is ready to look at the real questions within us to make the hard decisions in front of us. The entire basis of what I am talking about today began when I decided I wanted to learn how to manage bison/buffalo. This took me to a place called Pleistocene Park(link) in Russia then to Alaska, to Native Communites on the plains in America an...

Welcome to both New and Returning Friends! Now is not the time for formal introductions. My plan had been to write a beautiful introductory newsletter to formally launch this site and what I want to share with you here.  I have it all outlined and sitting next to me waiting to be masterfully created and published. But…. in this moment tensions are increasing on the prospect of World War 3 or 4, th...

Welcome! I want to get us going on a regular schedule and so we begin with this question: are we here to just be left alone? Is this how the wired for danger really feel deep down? or just when we get tired and burned…. or burned out? I want to explore it a bit as it has changed for me over the many decades….i’ve been doing this kind of thing! And I want to do it here, with you in both written and...

Hello my awesome W4D friends! It’s a brand new day and the next episode for our newly christened series of audio: The Dangerous Freedom Podcast. I will be offering this in a separate email in the future with one written post each week so those who don’t want the audio or more than one email a week can unsubscribe - still working the kinks out. I’ll be honest, I am struggling a bit (a lot really) t...

You are all about the fight, getting the dangerous things done, rescuing the innocent, speaking up for the vulnerable - I love that about you! I also know the thing you love least about your self is the other parts of who you are - the one that burns out, gets tired, feels overwhelmed, and wonders why you sacrifice so much for so many - and rarely say out loud: WTF for? “no good deed goes unpunish...

Welcome to Clan Pride! It’s time to begin a new chapter for me and hopefully for you too! Today’s podcast is an intro and an overview. First, a few housekeeping things: * I have no real audio editing options right now so it is a one shot kind of listen patience and kindness on the technical stuff! * If you are in a full roar mode, bored out of your mind, or distracted? Not a good day - we are goin...
