Uncommon Courage
Welcome to Uncommon Courage, the podcast, where we’ll be having the conversations we need to be having as members of the human collective. We are all being called upon to step up and lead – with kindness, big hearts and unshakable courage – because right now, we have an opportunity to redress what we got wrong in the past, as well as deal with the disruptions we face today, to create a better world for all.
However, if we are completely truthful, the biggest challenge we face is believing we can do it – believing in our ability to create massive change. But everyone knows you can’t achieve anything significant without guts, determination, and of course, the courage to keep driving towards the goal, regardless of how hard the journey is!
Uncommon Courage will feature global conversations determined to contribute to creating a better future for all life on earth. Ideas, solutions, arguments and laughs - it’ll all be part of the journey. It is time for that which is uncommon to become common.

The Know Show – war, will it ever end? Because it must
It’s been a harrowing week for war, with aid workers at World Central Kitchen killed by Israeli rockets in Palestine, which is ramping up pressure on the Israel Government to call an immediate ceasefire. Equally, Iran now faces a dilemma following the Israeli attack on its embassy in Syria, which killed two Iranian generals and five military advisers at its embassy compound in Damascus. How will Iran respond? Because it must respond, or it will look weak.
Russia continues to make progress in its war on Ukraine, with NATO now deliberating a plan for long term structured support for Ukraine, but war expanding across Europe is a threat, especially when we hear the President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, posted on social media about an unspecified threat to his country, which has been reported as we will go to war with Kosovo at a time of our choosing. War escalation, more brutality, ecosystem destruction, biosphere breakdown….
It’s a complicated time to be alive, resulting in mental health challenges becoming a greater issue all over the world, so what can we do, and how can we deal with all of this? To help us discuss this and the news going on around the world, we are delighted to welcome Dr. Alka Chadha, who is a practicing physician, yoga and meditation teacher, an NLP practitioner, a 'Heal Your Life' facilitator, an ICF certified coach, keynote speaker, coach, AND she also runs training workshops like 'Inner Journey' which incorporates breathwork, meditation, and yoga. What a perfect guest for this week’s topic!
The Know Show is a Livestream held every fortnight on Friday, where Andrea T Edwards, Tim Wade and Joe Augustin, and at least one special guest, review the news that’s getting everyone’s attention, as well as perhaps what requires our attention. We’ll talk about what it means to us, the world and we hope to inspire great conversations on the news that matters in the world today.
The Know Show is based on Andrea T Edwards Weekend Reads, which are published every Saturday on andreatedwards.com, and covers the planetary crisis, topical moments in the world, global politics and war, business and technology, social issues, and passion/humour/history. Join us.
