Two thought experiments for a change.

from Homecoming

“All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better.” Ralph Waldo Emerson Take Five podcast- Episode 4 – Two thought experiments for a change. In this episode I give you two ways that you can begin to see change how you “see” and “understand” significant moments in your life. In a continuation in my “Journaling with Soul” series, I encourage you to re-envision the moment you have journaled about, first by imagining some new resource or event on the outside of you that could lead to a better-outcome-for-you, and second, imagining some new inner resource, gift, skill, etc. on your inside that could lead to a better-outcome-for-you. What you are trying to do in these two thought — or Gedanken — experiments is to try to create “wiggle room” in a tightly knotted situation; or open up space in a restrictive “thought box.” Sometimes writing your journal entries are not enough to show you a way toward change, evolution, and/or healing. Sometimes you have to get creative and play with some thought experiments and just see what happens. (Click on the last line of this post to hear my podcast). Bonus: To get you in the thought experiment mood, try watching these. ________________________________________________ Take Five – Episode 4 – Two thought experiments for a change (c) A drjamm podcast – 2012August24 from The Gender Companion, Psychology of Gender, Online, University of British Columbia Click this link below to listen to my podcast: Take Five – Episode 4 – Two thought experiments for a change

Homecoming the Podcast Rose and James Our journeys to HBCUs weren’t planned, but they changed our lives. Howard gave boldness, confidence, and pride to a first-gen Nigerian American who barely knew what an HBCU was. Bowie turned a reluctant choice into a lifelong family, brotherhood through Omega Psi Phi and resilience shaped a hesitant student into a proud graduate. HBCUs gave us more than education—they gave us purpose, pride, and a deep connection to our culture. Through our podcast, we celebrate the magic of HBCUs, sharing stories of transformation, community, and the legacy that continues to inspire. We amplify the legacy of HBCUs—giving voice to untold experiences, bringing life to rich stories, and shining a light on their profound impact. Homecoming is the voice and heartbeat of HBCUs.
