Calm in the Storm Q&R | Part One | TWOII podcast | Episode 97

This special episode – part one of two question-and-response (Q&R) installments – commemorates the publication of the second book by Zen Buddhist monk Brother Phap Huu and leadership coach Jo Confino, which was published earlier this year. Calm in the Storm: Zen Ways to Cultivate Stability in an Anxious World is intended to help readers meet the current polycrisis with stability and resilience, but also forcefulness and love. According to Plum Village tradition, Jo and Brother Phap Huu recorded two episodes that respond to listeners’ questions which connect to the book’s themes - from balancing kindness and anger in challenging times to staying compassionate with a world where there's little deep listening; how to best support young people; caring for oneself while serving others; and much more.
