Ever wonder how to actually practice being the sun, not the salt, in daily life? In our very first episode of the “How Do I…” series, Dr. Harry Cohen and Connie Fontaine dig into the practical side of living heliotropically, starting with the question: “How do I start my day off right?”

Here’s what you’ll hear:

- Honest, real-life routines from Harry and Connie, including gratitude lists, positive planning, and morning rituals that set a sunny tone, even on tough days.

- The little daily details that make a big difference, whether it’s swapping news doomscrolling for uplifting podcasts, hydrating before coffee, or reaching out to friends with quick calls and kind words.

- Why lighting up someone else’s morning (at Starbucks, the office, or even your own kitchen) ends up lighting you up, too.

- Favorite ways to build connection at work, like greeting everyone by name or borrowing ideas from team meetings that blend “a little sun and a little salt” for camaraderie and trust.

- The truth that knowing what to do isn’t the same as doing and how gentle reminders (and this series!) can help turn those good intentions into actual habits.

Packed with candid stories and simple tips, this short episode sets the tone for exploring everyday ways to bring more light, intention, and positivity to your world. It’s not about perfection! It’s about practice, picking yourself up when you slip, and sharing the journey with others along the way.


Tune in, share your own “How Do I…” questions, and join the movement of living a little more like the sun, one morning at a time.

(This is our first in the “How Do I…” series! It’s a mini-episode, perfect for anyone ready to turn heliotropic ideas into real-life action in no time at all!)

Which I am doing right now. A Brief Account of the Bahai Movement Ethel J. Rosenberg “Many believe that we, in this century,” writes Ethel Rosenberg, “ are witnessing the dawn of a new spiritual epoch or era. A renewal of the Spirit is making itself felt in the Churches and in the religious and social life of all lands. This is in harmony with the teachings of the Bahais, and of their Great Leaders, now represented by Abdul Baha the ‘Servant of God,’ known to the outside world as Abbas Effendi. Once again, the Light is shining forth from that land which may indeed be called the Holy Land: for have not its valleys and hills been trodden from the beginning by the feet of those great Messengers inspired of God—Abraham, Elijah, and last and greatest, Jesus of Nazareth? Is it strange that once more in this century of ours, in this ‘cradle of the race,’ those that were sitting “in darkness have seen a Great Light,” the light of the Sun of Righteousness that rises with healing in his wings?”Ethel Jenner Rosenberg (1858-1930) was a prominent British Bahá’í, having been Brief Account of the Bahai Movement, A by Ethel J.

Managing to discuss at least 25 topics in a one hour roller coaster time frame, these ‘poddy’ mouth girls are “cool” enough to be invited into the boys locker room, and not feel out of place. They are equal parts funny, articulate, thoughtful, smart and cute, possessing just enough A.D.D. & O.C.D. to add to the chaos and comedy of each podcast. As our listeners can attest, Between the Sheets appeals to people of all ages and persuasions and every color under the sun and we attract an interesting array of guests as well — often Gaye Ann’s industry friends — showcasing a fascinating mix of celebrities, authors, musicians, sex experts, psychics, and more...the list goes on. ​ If you want to be schooled on any topic, even ones too h
