S03E06 About How Words Create

The Tiny Pod

Show Notes

Creation begins with words, in the mind, what we think, what we speak, what we say in our minds to ourselves, what we believe. We are constantly creating, and we get to choose what reality we create for ourselves. We get to choose to be a victim of our circumstances, or to believe, to speak, to think a new reality into existence. It all starts with awareness, noticing what we are constantly repeating to ourselves, about ourselves. When we question these words, explore their veracity, challenge our assumptions, we transform our life. When we are wired for survival, our nervous system feels comfort in discomfort, we cannot create, we react to external circumstances. We are limited. When we heal our nervous system and shift into a parasympathetic state, we are safe to create, to see all sides, to open ourselves to possibilities. We are limitless. Our words have power. You are more powerful than you think you are!

See you next week

This week on The Tiny Pod, in honour of last week's 81st UN General Assembly, is all About United. The word united is past tense, implying unity, unison, union has already been achieved, but unions, and all relationships are active, and continuously in flux. The moment we stop actively pursuing unity, disunity naturally creeps in. United is often used politically as a tool to both imply unity has been achieved, and to silence dissent and discourage inquiry. United in the context of United Nations, United Kingdom and United States is both aspirational and misleading. As we explore what United means in political unions, we also discover what is true in any union, whether marriage, parenting or friendship, States, governments or organisations. Unity requires continuous review, negotiation and compromise. Relationships are alive and active, and although united is not a constant state, it can be touched through commitment and active participation, and can last if continuously pursued. Families can bee united and yet have no sense of unity. Countries can be united against a common cause, while still disagreeing on others, and states can question the validity or strength of a union whilst still staying in that union. United is not unanimous agreement, it is what it always meant, an agreement to join together, to bring different parts into one cohesive whole, and that can only be done in truth. The obvious disunity at the UN this year was arguably the most honest reflection of the state of the United Nations, and it is in honesty that true unity can begin to be found.

This week on The Tiny Pod I share an episode from Tiny Pod Patreon, About Shame.

Aug 26, 2026

This week on The Tiny Pod Patreon is all About Plagiarism, in honour of Dr Jason Arday. Plagiarism originally meant kidnapper, child stealer, it was used to describe someone who kidnapped children or slaves, or sold free people into slavery. The word evolved to mean literary theft when the Roman poet Martial described Fidentinus as a kidnapper of his words, his brainchildren. There is no original ground zero thought, we are all walking compilations of the experiences, art, literature, films, environment and people that surround us. The opposite of plagiarism is not originality, it is honesty. Plagiarism is copying the exact style and formation of another without attribution, it is in the concealment and dishonesty. We are all part of a collective and when we share freely we build on what has come before to create something new, we see further "standing on the shoulders of giants," as Isaac Newton wrote.
