When the Landscape Speaks (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Have you ever entered a place and felt something shift — a sense of peace, connection or presence you couldn’t quite explain? In this episode of LivingToBe , Reino Gevers explores the idea of thin places : landscapes where the boundary between the ordinary and something deeper seems to become remarkably thin. Drawing on his experiences of pilgrimage and walking the Camino, he reflects on sacred landscapes, memory, creativity and our relationship with the places we inhabit. Perhaps a thin place i
The Words We Live By: How Language Shapes Your Mind, Body and Relationships (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if the words you use every day were shaping your health, your relationships, and the way you see the world? In this episode, I explore the surprising science behind language — from a landmark study linking angry, hostile speech on social media to higher rates of heart disease, to research showing how a lifetime of reading may protect the ageing brain. We'll look at why leaders who normalise belittling language give everyone else permission to do the same, why mantras and prayer have endured
What Happens When You Die? Lessons from the Threshold of Life (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if facing death could teach us how to live more fully?

That early encounter with mortality led her into a private life of prayer and a profound awareness of the preciousness of life. Years later, a near-death experience while whitewater rafting chan
The Helicopter is Still There: Are You Listening to the Warnings? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if the warnings you keep waiting for are already the message? In this episode of LivingToBe , I revisit an old story about Angelo, a man who refuses to leave his home during a devastating flood because he trusts that God will save him. A neighbour comes. A fire engine comes. A rescue worker comes. Finally, a helicopter arrives. Angelo refuses every offer of help—and ultimately drowns. The story is funny on the surface, but beneath it lies a profound question: How often do you fail to recogn
Train Like an Athlete, Live Like a Champion: Dr. Jack Groppel on high performance (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dr. Jack Groppel spent his career translating elite athletic training into principles anyone can use. A Hall of Fame coach, scientist, and cofounder of the Johnson & Johnson Human Performance Institute, he's spent decades showing business leaders, healthcare professionals, and organizations worldwide that peak performance isn't about pushing harder — it's about managing energy well. In this episode, we talk about what sport science can teach us off the field: how elite athletes train their energ
