  • E1.1 - Three Weight-Bearing Words from Elif Shafak

    E1.1 - Three Weight-Bearing Words from Elif Shafak
    2026/06/24
    In this Word Reflections episode, we revisit ideas from our conversation with Elif Shafak through three weight-bearing words: gurbet, kairos, and democracy. Some words carry more than definitions. They hold histories, experiences, ways of seeing the world, and questions that continue to shape how we live. Together, we explore the feeling of gurbet, a longing for home and belonging, the idea of kairos, the right or opportune moment, and the meaning of democracy in our lives today. This is not an interview. It is an invitation to slow down, reflect, and spend time with words that ask something of us. See you next Wednesday for our interview with musician Hak Baker.

  • E1 - When Faith and Doubt Hold Hands | with Elif Shafak

    E1 - When Faith and Doubt Hold Hands | with Elif Shafak
    2026/06/17
    What happens when faith and doubt learn to dance together? In this opening conversation of the Wodcast, bestselling novelist Elif Shafak joins Benjamin Aston and Mabel Evans for a wide-ranging exploration of language, love, storytelling and the search for wisdom in a noisy world. Together they discuss the ancient meanings hidden inside words, why different cultures understand love in different ways, the forgotten goddess of writing, the importance of oral storytelling, and what Elif calls "inner democracy" the practice of making space for the many voices within ourselves. Drawing on her novels, her spiritual curiosity, and her lifelong relationship with stories, Elif reflects on the tension between certainty and wonder, information and wisdom, roots and belonging, and why slowing down may be one of the most radical acts of our time. This episode is an invitation to listen more deeply: to language, to each other, and to the stories that shape who we become. ───── Topics include: • Faith and doubt • The many meanings of love • Language and identity • Storytelling and oral tradition • Inner democracy • Wisdom in the digital age • Women, memory and forgotten histories • Nature, listening, and belonging ───── Thank you to our sponsors: Summerour Architects https://summerourarchitects.com/ Trunk Clothiers https://www.trunkclothiers.com/ ───── More from the Wodcast: ➟ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/wod.cast/ ➟ Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wodcast/id1896893830 ➟ Youtube - https://youtube.com/@wodcast_channel?si=sQbEXy6-mO6lOLvB ➟ Substack - https://wodcast.substack.com/ ➟Website https://wodcast.co.uk/ ───── See you next Wednesday for our word reflection ‘mini-episode’ where hosts Mabel & Ben deep dive into Elif’s ‘weight-baring’ words✨
