"It’s Cool to Have Spirit – Embracing the Spiritual Foundation of Our Youth"

 

Guest: Elizabeth Dabney Hochman, Founder/Editor-in-Chief/ Publisher KidSpirit Magazine

Website: www.KidSpiritMagazine.com

Tune in this week to meet Elizabeth Dabney Hochman, editor-in-chief of KidSpirit Magazine. KidSpirit is a nonprofit magazine created by and for eleven to fifteen year olds, which examines the deeper side of life in a spirit of openness. Its goal is to empower young teens to explore values, spirituality and life’s big questions in an explicitly non-affiliated and inclusive forum. Each issue centers on a theme chosen by the all-kid Editorial Board, as well as original artwork, poetry and articles by kids around the country.  Themes include such complex ideas as materialism, our connection to the earth, the role of myth and ethical issues in science.  There is an ongoing focus on ethics in everyday life, volunteerism, spiritual inquiry and human relationships.

Join us to hear Elizabeth talk about the magazine and the spirituality of the American teen.


Karen Humphries Sallick"Some of us are lucky, our spiritual selves are reflected every day in the work we do and how we live our lives.  For the rest of us, as we become more spiritual, a gap grows between our inner selves and our work selves.  This split between work and self can motivate us to find a resolution or it can begin a tailspin of unhappiness and lack of productivity at work. 

This issue is so important to so many of us now that “Spirituality in Business” has become a business itself.  Even Harvard Business School runs a seminar on Spirituality and Leadership. I am a busy running my business, trying to raise a family and keep a home.  How can I possibly find the time to review the books and the seminar options?  Where can I hear from people who are further along the path that will inspire me?

So, that is the reason for Embracing the Journey.  Selfishly, to get me motivated to find great books and seminars to share with you and to get the chance to speak with people who are integrating their spirituality with their business lives.  But more importantly the show is meant to share that journey with you.  And every week, if just one of us is inspired enough to begin a journey to close that gap, then we will be making a difference together.
