Dr. Scott Mills - Neurodivergent Thinkers: Brilliant People Redesigning the World
Scott W. Mills, Ph.D. is a writer, educator, and strategic advisor whose work sits at the intersection of neuroscience, relational psychology, and what he calls "honest wealth" — the kind that doesn't cost you your life to build. He holds a doctorate in Religion and Psychology from the Claremont School of Theology and spent years as a university professor and social worker before bringing that rigor into the world of coaching and consulting. Over more than thirty years, his work has reached hundreds of thousands of people through platforms including Mindvalley and the Shift Network. He co-created the Money EQ course with Ken Honda, Japan's top-selling personal development author — a course that has now enrolled nearly 120,000 students worldwide. ]He has worked as a strategic advisor and business partner to some of the most recognized names in personal development, and his marketing work has put clients on the USA Today bestseller list in their first week. He is also the author of Love & Other Survival Skills, a Substack publication and podcast exploring what becomes possible when people whose minds work in patterns and constellations — rather than straight lines — finally stop trying to fit into systems built for someone else. His writing asks the questions the personal development industry tends to avoid. He lives intentionally in Guadalajara, Mexico, where the unhurried pace of life is not an accident but a practice. In this episode of "Hopenning 2.0" Fran and Scott discuss how hope can be built for neurodivergent thinkers: Dr. Scott Mills can be found at: drscottwmills.substack.com drscottwmills.systeme.io

CJ Penn - Beneath the Graffiti - A De-Churched Christian's Search for Christianity - Hopenning 2.0
Author of "Beneath the Graffiti - a De-Churched Christian's Search for Christianity", CJ Penn shares words of hope for listeners, encouraging them, if they are de-churched, or considering leaving the Christian church, to explore the reality of the Holy Spirit through reading the Gospels, particularly John, and to find comfort in this presence during challenging times. After becoming an almost-every-Sunday Christian churchgoer in his mid-thirties, CJ Penn helped lead the church junior high youth group. Then, in his late-forties, CJ left church and joined the ranks of the de-churched. He soon discovered he wasn’t alone. Shortly after becoming another church refugee, CJ fell into writing as a way to express his devotion to Jesus, a devotion that, if anything, grew after he stopped attending church. More recently, CJ retired from his longtime technology career, finally allowing him to devote much more time to his writing. He no longer gets up at 4:30am to squeeze in some prayer and writing before heading off to his day job, and he’s grateful for that. In fact, “gratitude” pretty much captures how he feels about his life, his family, his friends, and his relationship with God and Jesus.

Dalia Latife - Healing the Soul through the Seasons
IA
“Winter is often misunderstood as a time of death. In reality, it is the season of necessary rest. Without the silence of winter, the bloom of spring has no foundation.” — Dalia Latife In a profound conversation with Fran Caudron, the author and award-winning photographer Dalia Latife shared how her “trio of loss” (the passing of her mother, the global pandemic, and her sudden job loss) forced her into a “gentle turning” that changed how she looked at life. Dalia, the author of The Quiet Cure and The Gentle Turning, has spent the last decade discovering the calendar of the human heart through the lens of the natural world and how seasons of life can be considered through the lens of nature. This story is a manual for anyone currently sitting in their own “winter,” waiting for the ground to thaw, and wondering why “summer” can’t just stay.
