I'm a writer, teacher, and outdoor educator. I've dedicated much of the last decade to researching and writing my family stories of Vietnam. In the summer of 2023 I published the narrative nonfiction book, For the Love of Vietnam: a war, a family, a CIA official, and the best evacuation story never …

ok I'm baffled -- you're not getting your questions answered on the call?!

Hi Folks, I'm really baffled by this... several people are saying that when you come to my Q&A calls, you don't get your questions answered. WTF?

I swear that I do my best (I thought) to make sure I answer all your questions... but I think what happens is that I ask for your questions... and then I wait for 10 seconds... and I see no questions... so then I start my segment. 

Maybe I need to wait 30 seconds, 1 minute, 3 minutes?

Truly, from the heart, I'm sad and embarrassed that you've had tha…

@George Kao I've not been on calls recently (summer camp + recovery+) so I'm only speaking from the periphery of things, but I'd like to add to the conversation by saying that you offer such genuine heartfelt support that it is stunning in this swiftly tilting world. And your "annual meltdown thread" (what a phrase! <3 from a wordsmith) only makes you more genuine and relatable. Thanks, George, for being real. You're truly a gem.

@George Kao My sincere honor, George!

Thanks to Beth Budesheim for her Mudra Class

I recently enjoyed a gift from

@Beth Budesheim Kaoihme after helping her with some market research. I was not expecting it and it came as a sweet surprise. 

A few days after I began doing the Mudra Class, I encountered a situation that I'd usually have a tense reaction to. I noticed, however, that I was feeling calm and not just thinking that I should try to be calm. 

We sometimes hear about shifts but it's really something to actually experience the feeling in your whole body and being. 

Thanks Beth, for the class and the experience! ღ

Wow, so beautiful. Not just the connection you've made but also the wisdom in truly experiencing a shift in our bodies, which often can be subtle but powerful.

@Jackie Johansen Thank you for saying so, Jackie. Your reflection makes it even more real. 

Looking for a few volunteers

UPDATE 6/14/24: I'm pausing for a bit. Thank you to everyone who has scheduled a call. I appreciate you!

Hi Everyone, I'm in George's Market Discovery class and need a few more people who would be willing to get on the phone with me for 20 minutes or so and let me ask some questions. 

I'm an energy healer, intuitive, bodyworker, creator, and artist. I work with people remotely, in-person, and groups. I’m interested in asking you about these sorts of things:

* if you have experience receivin…

Free alternatives to FB groups that foster community for an online workshop?

I am launching an online workshop, and in the spirit of working lightly, I don't have the details worked out yet. 🤣

My loose plan is to use facebook groups to host the workshop. 
There will be a few live group calls (held on google meet), which the recording will be posted, plus some other recordings that I will prepare and post in the group, and then daily posts for practicing skills. 

I had someone approach me and ask what the format would be for the workshop, and when I told them I was plan…

I have not facilitated a group on FB or What’s App so take this with a grain of sea salt but I’m in a running group that is using the Band App. I’m considering using it for a reading group this summer.

Short video about it:

@Beth Budesheim Kaoihme it’s so true—it’s nice to have this group to swap notes!
