He’s a New York Times Bestselling author of fourteen books, including the bestseller 'Love Wins'. Rob and Jaymee meet for the first time and sparks fly, which set the stage for a highly engaging (and hilarious) conversation on the nature of God, the mechanism of belief, the subversive nature of joy, making friends with fear, the utility of nostalgia and what inspires him today. ROB BELL: www.robbell.comLITA PODCAST: hosted, produced, edited and music by Jaymee Carpenter. Interested in Mentorship with Jaymee?email: [email protected] to set up a free consultation,or visit: www.loveistheauthor.com/mentorship SPONSORS: TOTALLY BLOWN (⁠⁠⁠⁠www.totallyblown.us⁠⁠⁠⁠)RAUM GOODS (www.raumgoods.com)INDIAN LODGE ROAD (www.indianlodgeroad.com) YERBA MADRE (www.guayaki.com)VALLEY OF THE MOON (www.shorturl.at/dCVh2)Special thanks to Matt and Jess Meyer for hosting this recording at their beautiful home, and Matt for the episode cover photo.THiS SHOW is a LABOR of LOVE.

On the morning of September 11th 2025, Lady Diana J. Mukpo, who was Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche’s wife, closest friend, and confidant, and a brilliant Buddhist teacher in her own right passed away. Jaymee was granted the incredibly rare opportunity to interview Lady Diana in 2023 on the 36th anniversary of Trungpa Rinpoche's passing (April 4th, 1987) while she herself was hospitalized related to her ongoing battle with cancer. This in depth interview would sadly be her last, and is being re-released as a small offering of condolence to her family, many friends, students and admirers. Within this hour we discuss her extraordinary life journey as the Queen Of Shambhala. There are those who may be intimately familiar with the books and teachings of Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche, but have yet to be introduced properly to the extraordinary feminine force by his side all of those years who made so much of what he accomplished in the west possible, planting initial seeds of the Buddha dharma to flourish for future generations. LITA PODCAST: hosted, produced, edited by Jaymee Carpenter. MUSIC BY: Devendra Banhart Interested in Mentorship with Jaymee?email: [email protected] to set up a free consultation,or visit: www.loveistheauthor.com/mentorship SPONSORS: TOTALLY BLOWN (⁠⁠⁠www.totallyblown.us⁠⁠⁠)RAUM GOODS (www.raumgoods.com)INDIAN LODGE ROAD (www.indianlodgeroad.com) YERBA MADRE (www.guayaki.com)VALLEY OF THE MOON (www.shorturl.at/dCVh2)THiS SHOW is a LABOR of LOVE.

What do Dazed And Confused, Saving Private Ryan, A Beautiful Mind, Zodiac and the sitcom Friends have in common? Adam Goldberg, who’s been a working actor in Hollywood now for over three decades contributing memorable roles (and catch phrases) to some of the most iconic films in cinema history. In this 2 1/2 hour conversation with Jaymee, Adam shares his gratitude as well as some of the pitfalls of working in the industry, everything from the highs of being hand selected by legendary directors like Stephen Speilberg and Richard Linklater, to the lows of developing an anxiety disorder from playing some of his most important roles, and the creative straightjacket of being typecast. He may have even (inadvertently) pissed off Quentin Tarantino somewhere along the way. Get ready for a real look behind the curtain of the Hollywood dream, which may not be quite what you thought it was.LITA PODCAST: hosted, produced, edited by Jaymee Carpenter. MIXED BY: CHRIS FALLERMUSIC BY: JAYMEE CARPENTERInterested in Mentorship with Jaymee?email: [email protected] to set up a free consultation,or visit: www.loveistheauthor.com/mentorship SPONSORS: TOTALLY BLOWN (⁠⁠www.totallyblown.us⁠⁠)RAUM GOODS (www.raumgoods.com)INDIAN LODGE ROAD (www.indianlodgeroad.com) YERBA MADRE (www.guayaki.com)VALLEY OF THE MOON (www.shorturl.at/dCVh2)THiS SHOW is a LABOR of LOVE.

Jaymee sits down with his spiritual teacher and guru, Lama Lhanang Rinpoche, for a deep conversation on how every word and thought functions as prayer, the difference between ordinary love and unconditional love in Buddhism, and how to approach impermanence, karma, and even daily interruptions with mindfulness. Rinpoche also explains the paradox of being both disciplined and relaxed in practice, the power of devotion, and how to hold compassion for those who cause harm. You'll learn details about the upcoming San Diego Celebration of Awakening: World Peace Through Inner Peace Festival (September 20th, 2025), a day of interfaith dialogue, meditation, music, and cultural performance designed to cultivate peace from within.
