The Edge of Everyday with Sandra Bargman
Actor, Inter-spiritual minister and Impactful Communication teacher, Sandra Bargman leans into the understanding that life isn't black or white, but rather it's where these two meet where we find the most creativity, chaos and ultimately, understanding. Based on her hit one woman show of the same name, The Edge of Everyday podcast is an exploration of the edges we all face and grapple with in our challenging times. Sandra Bargman shares her own stories and perspectives around opposing beliefs, the tension of paradox, the sacred and mundane, and our biggest edge, fear of change. Real conversations with real people that spark provocative invitations to leap out of what’s safe and explore the outer edges of their lives.

Bleeding Hearts and Mother Stories Part I with Meg Flather, Ann Kittredge, and Harriet Shugarman
Today is May 15th and we just celebrated Mother’s Day here in the US – and this special two-part series is dedicated to Mothers.
Today we are #LIVEintheHive with my special guests, 3 women I adore, to talk about and to HONOR the wonderful complexities and paradoxes of MOTHERHOOD, the complicated mother-daughter relationship, care-giving a parent, the joy of having children, the choice not to have children - and the mentoring and nurturing of young people.
So many stories told, so many surprises, so much vulnerability, and so much laughter. You’ll just have to listen, because I have no notes. 😊
