Nurse Unseen is a documentary that explores the untold history and humanity of the Filipino nurses who risked their lives on the front lines of the pandemic while being thousands of miles away from home. Director Michele Josue explains the importance of telling Filipino stories through our lens, and how she started filming before the pandemic and when the story took an unexpected turn. Then we share what it means to unpack the colonization mentality, and our mutual love for Tia Carrera in Wayne’s World.

Nurse Unseen was just picked up for distribution and will be rolling into theaters in 2025.

Anyone out there feeling burnt out? Have a full calendar, but not feeling fulfilled? Daydream about another kind of life, but not sure how to get there? You're not alone. There's a community of folks led by curiosity deep diving into their lives and filling their days with play, gratitude, push, and hustling.

That community was founded and is facilitated by Morgan Shidler, who worked in the public education system in San Francisco and Oakland until she was laid off. Finding herself at a low point, Morgan started piecing together a system that helped her reflect and find ways to connect to the things she dreamed of. That system, called Hustle & Play, is a values-based program that helps you look at how you spend time in your life and how you want to change it.

In this episode, we speak at length about the process it took Morgan to create Hustle & Play, how the community has grown, what she's learned from years of having this program and its workbook out in the world, and how Erin has used it in her own life.

Look, life is going to get harder as the new year approaches and we will need to prioritize joy in our lives. If you want to meet new people, be in community, lead with play, and reflect in meaningful ways—hop on the Hustle & Play train. You will be investing in your own growth as the system keeps trying to push us down.

Right now, there are Palestinian and Israeli people working toward peace. This work has transcended chaos, war, and hate. Frequent guest of the show, director Julie Cohen (RBG, Every Body, My Name is Pauli Murray, Julia) and new friend of the show director Mo Husseini partnered on The Path Forward to capture the work done by everyday people who want to end histories of trauma and heal through conversation and community-building.

This short documentary film seeks to amplify the voices of some of the most eloquent and inspiring voices of peace. Interweaving their moving on-stage dialogues in the U.S. and Europe with their poignant life stories, this doc creates a tapestry of demands for peace and reconciliation. The film contains no images of war, death, or campus protests. Instead, viewers will be immersed in the minds and heart-opening world of innovative thinkers finding a new way forward.

We are honored to bring you this conversation with Julie, who identifies as Jewish-American, and Mo who identifies as Palestinian-American. Their work is essential to helping save our humanity.
