MindFULL conversations

Robin Glickstein

MindFULL conversations brings "mindful conversations" to folks seeking practical information for self-awareness, and the ability to see themselves reflected in what inspires them, validates their insights, and normalizes what they're pondering. With actionable tips and useful conversations about career transitions, new ideas about books and the journeys it takes to write them, and creative perspectives that will shift you around life's everyday moments, MindFULL conversations unlocks what's inside of YOU.
This podcast will:
- Inspire you to take action.
- Delight you with new ideas.
- Encourage you to take one step toward your dreams.
- Help you to find new ways of being in the world you hadn’t thought of.
And how does this happen? By releasing something inside of the conversationalist, and the listener, with an engaging question.
For over 30 years, your host, Robin Glickstein, Ed.M., was on the client and agency side of the business and collected 100s of ideas. She spent 25 years hearing 1,000s of personal insights from all kinds of people and learned to hone her questions and unlock insights. With nowhere to put all the ideas that she was having, Robin began The MindFULL Creative, a blog written from noticing how her mind was so FULL of inspirational stories and creative ideas (tips, insights, personal musings and awesome folks doing wonderful work, etc.). She then went on to learn about a podcast that encouraged her to bring her ideas and insights to a new level. Prone to micro-conversations with folks in line for groceries, on planes and almost anywhere she goes, Robin's mind continued to be FULL and thus, MindFULL conversations (lower c) was born.
In this podcast, you will hear conversations with guests who have made the leap to where they are today – and actionable strategies that can help you jump!

It Only Takes One!

MindFULL conversations

03/13/23 • 43 min

In this episode, my friend Howard Waldstreicher, tells us how he re-invented himself at 59. Howard started out as a former software engineer, then became a top-tier fitness trainer and post Covid, found his way back again to becoming one of the oldest data engineers at Facebook.

Howard shares his stories and mindful insights. He proves that Life Experience cannot be taught, but new skills can.

3 Takeaways from Howard:

1. Listen to your Mother – Howard’s Mother always said, “Never give up. It only takes one!” He sent out hundreds of resumes and almost gave up...

2. You can reinvent yourself by re-inventing your skills from something you might have done in the past. He was a programmer in his early days. He took classes and sharpened his modern day skills.

3. Return to work programs can help you find your way to something new. Howard found his way to Facebook through the career rentry program called iRelaunch. Check them out here: https://www.irelaunch.com/

You can find Howard's new book here: https://a.co/d/7iX5xoy

Living With Loss - Part One

MindFULL conversations

10/10/22 • 28 min

She is so full of wisdom, I had to do a TWO Part Series with Rachel Kodanaz, author of “Living with Loss One Day at a Time”. This week, Rachel joins us to talk about embracing life’s challenges. Overcoming her own adversity of being widowed at 31 years old with a 2-year-old daughter, Rachel shares her down to earth, insightful, and practical advice for living with loss. As a motivational speaker, author, grief consultant, and facilitator, Rachel tells us what can be helpful. In Part Two, we will talk about clearing out physical objects. You will want to hear it all!

Takeaways:

Humans simply need to be felt and understood. They don’t want or need to be fixed. Just listen.
We can’t change what happens to us so we have to figure out what we can do to go forward. How? Rachel gives 365 days of tips to help.
Don’t ask. Just do (for the person).

Composing Peace in Ukraine

MindFULL conversations

04/03/23 • 33 min

Today's mindful conversation is with Ostap Manulyak (OS-TAP ManOOYA).
Almost exactly a year ago, I had a spontaneous conversation with my friend John Yackus, who phoned it in from the border of Poland, where he and other retired United pilot friends had joined the World Kitchen to distribute food to folks fleeing Ukraine. Sad to say, that today, the war is raging on. John and his friends went back to Ukraine last month and John met Ostap and called me and said, "I have a guy for you to talk with".

Ostap Manulyak is an assistant professor in the Composition Department of the Lviv Music Academy and a co-founder of Art Association NURT, director of the Festival of electroacoustic music VOX ELECTRONICA and Experimental Educational Studio of Electroacoustic Music (EESEM) of Lviv Music Academy. During the 2018-19 academic year, he was a visiting researcher at the Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustic (CCRMA) of Stanford University (California) as Fulbright Fellow. He has recently received several awards. In 2020, he received the Mykola Leontovych Award for choral composition and in 2021, the Stanislav Liudkevych Award for works composed since 2018.
In our MindFULL conversation, Ostap refered to many interesting web sites:
Website links for Unarmed Civilians killed that are Culturally related https://apnews.com/hub/war-crimes-watch-ukraine
A few stories which he translated to English https://drive.google.com/file/d/16ZVv0y1Ogywl_YJkg8hDX0aBvjeaXZaV/view?usp=share_link
Carols of Bells link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shchedryk_(song)

NYC – Ukrainian Festival https://www.ucmfnyc.com/
And a few stories about artists who joined Ukrainian Armed Forces https://ui.org.ua/en/culture-fights-back-2/

Give a listen to our conversation! I think you will agree with him that keeping art initiatives alive is very important to showing that Ukraine stands tall and has not lost!

Going On An Inner Journey with Mark Horn and Tarot/Kabbalah

MindFULL conversations

05/15/23 • 38 min

Whether you are Jewish, or not Jewish, I hope you will find this mindful conversation fascinating and helpful.
Mark Horn is the author of Tarot & The Gates of Light: A Kabbalistic Path to Liberation. He may be the only person who has taught at both the Jewish Theological Seminary and the Readers Studio International Tarot Conference. Myth and sacred story have always been central to his spiritual path, and he uses both as a performing storyteller and a tarot guide. He applies his understanding of the archetypes in sacred stories from all traditions to the individual spiritual path of clients as they are revealed in readings.

I had a reading with Mark and it is changing my life...
A few takeaways from this MindFULL conversation:
1. There is a Power greater than Us and anything we can do to cleanse our energy centers that can help us see, express and experience these energies, can be helpful.
2. The Tree of Life is a "map" that has 10 inner energies represented, and if you overlay it on the the Chakra system, they align and give you a way of examing how they manifest in you. We ALL have blocks and this practice is a way to purify with specific meditations.
3. Counting The Omer is a journey over a 49 day period (also learn why 49 days and what 49 days these are) and helps people clear spiritual and creative blocks inside so they can be free and more connected.
You can buy Mark's book, Tarot & The Gates of Light: A Kabbalistic Path to Liberation via the bookstore link at the bottom of these notes.
