In this talk, given at Beginner's Mind Temple, Teah Strozer reminds us everyone is enough — you, yourself, are perfect just as you are, even if, as Shunryu Suzuki Roshi said, we can also ‘use a little improvement.' In the talk, Teah shares stories about dependent arising and its relevance for today. She highlights the importance of not making divisions — not creating ideas of separate self and others — especially as the world deals with continued armed conflicts and political divisions.

Sometimes it is just about reaching out to other people, taking action in small moments that can lead to magical, synchronistic moments. Join me for this interview with my friend Lynda Adams, in which she shares how she continues to grow each day -  in big ways -  by noticing the serendipitous occurrences in her life and by taking small actions every day to bring her closer to what the universe is nudging her towards. From running for (and winning) public office, singing in a rock band, hosting her own radio show, to being involved in several spiritual, wellness-based businesses, Lynda offers us a glimpse into her creating a meaningful, and exciting life.


Lynda Adams is the Marketing Director for Essential Living Maine magazine; the host for the talk radio program, Successful Balanced Living, on WMPG; and a City Councilor for the City of Westbrook, Maine.  She considers herself a “connector” and utilizes that skill to help entrepreneurs grow their businesses and her media followers make positive changes in their lives.
