What this episode covers

Michael Tobin has been a marital and family psychologist for 45 years. He is the founder of the award-winning website, www.wholefamily.com, which contains numerous articles about relationships. His series of articles, The Marital Labyrinth , which delves into marriage, marital affairs, and how to affair-proof a relationship, was featured in Psychology Today. His new book, Riding the Edge, A Love Song to Deborah, chronicles a six-month transformative journey in 1980, when he, an American Jew, and Deborah, an Arab American, bicycled across Europe, Lebanon, and Israel, where they confronted the challenges of love, war, and identity. They have been together for 47 years now, and are the parents of four and the grandparents of 14. We spoke about the spiritual implications of the adventure he describes in his book and the challenges he’s faced since Deborah was diagnosed with Alzeimer’s.

Tao Te Ching by Laozi (Author), Stephen Mitchell (Full Audiobook) Laozi Lao-tzu's Tao Te Ching, or Book of the Way, is the classic manual on the art of living, and one of the wonders of the world. In eighty-one brief chapters, the Tao Te Ching looks at the basic predicament of being alive and gives advice that imparts balance and perspective, a serene and generous spirit. This book is about wisdom in action. It teaches how to work for the good with the effortless skill that comes from being in accord with the Tao (the basic principle of the universe) and applies equally to good government and sexual love; to child rearing, business, and ecology.Stephen Mitchell's bestselling version has been widely acclaimed as a gift to contemporary culture. NEWMORROW SESSIONS - A PodCast Series on the Future of Hospitality Mario C. Bauer, Florian Schneider, Axel Weber & Dr. Tillman Bardt The Newmorrow PodCast is more than a podcast — it's a platform for open dialog on the future of our business, a platform for those building what doesn’t exist yet. Here, we share and embrace our passion for the hospitality industry, but we won’t romanticize the journey. We ask the tough questions, confront uncomfortable truths, and prepare for a future that resists easy answers. We believe that the tougher and wilder times become, the more openly, honestly and humanely people need to talk to each other and act together. We believe, openness, togetherness, and truthfulness should also be cornerstones of a professional community to develop our utopian idea of „open source“. This is a space where visionaries don’t just imagine the future — they wrestle with the paradoxes that shape it: success vs. happiness, data vs. instinct, stability vs. reinvention. Join leaders, entrepreneurs, and thinkers as they share not what made them — but what’s actively shaping them, now and next. So tune in
