You've just had the best sex of your life, and you're sure you want to stay with this person forever so you can feel this way all the time. But wait...isn't that exactly how you got into your present unsatisfactory relationship?
Relationship specialist Eve Hogan joined Maryanne for a freewheeling discussion of all things sexual, emotional and spiritual.
Do animals have feelings? Sheri met the eyes of three chimpanzees huddled in a cage in the hotel in Cameroon, and felt an instant connection. Fueled by deep empathy and a fierce sense of injustice about the fate of these kindred souls, Speede forever changed the course of her life when she dedicated herself to saving these and other captive chimps in Cameroon.
Navigating geographic, logistic and medical hardships in a cultural landscape completely foreign to her, Speede persevered, eventually building a sanctuary in the forest and taking the chimpanzees back to their natural habitat. A photo of Dorothy, one of the chimps, at her funeral, in which Dr. Sheri Speede was cradling Dorothy's head while her family of chimpanzees looked on, went viral after being published in National Geographic. The image was subsequently covered in hundreds of media outlets on television, in newspapers, and on blogs, deeply touching people around the world while showing once and for all that animals do indeed have feelings.
She shares the joy and deep fulfillment that ultimately can come from following one's true passion...and inspires you to follow yours!

Maryanne interviews Barbara Marx Hubbard, and we learn about The Shift Network 2012: Planetary Activation. We don't have to be scared of 2012...we can add our energy to "gentle the birth" toward the next stage of our evolution. She says, "Millions of us are awakening to our participation in the whole, as the planetary body integrates and links up throughout the world. Our electronic media have joined us via global satellite.
More recently, the Internet, our refined planetary nervous system, is connecting us as individuals and groups, cross signaling through the system, beyond the confines of time and space. Something more is needed to awaken us as a whole – an infusion of life, love, appreciation, and security to comfort us in our time of trial. It is this event that we now envision and that we can in fact bring into being. Everything we do counts, especially in this critical time."

How can we all thrive in this confusing economy? "We are facing significant problems that the old system cannot solve," says Said Elias Dawlabani, the leading expert in the value-systems approach to macroeconomics. A meme is a concept that can replicate itself across a culture to express a value system; judging by the present economic system, it's high time for this meme to change! Said says we are now in the entropy and prolapse phase, the end of capitalism as we have known it. What are we emerging into? The new paradigm seeks deepening understanding of what being human is all about; it's a knowledge economy rather than survival-based. He explains the difference between emergence and evolution, and introduces a road map for how to change the system...and how to prosper!
