MOVD
Strengthening the connective tissue that binds us—to ourselves, each other, and the world around us—one story at a time. In a fragmented society that aims to keep us divided, storytelling is the connective tissue that binds us together. Join MOVD host Mariah Rooney in conversation with artists, therapists, activists, athletes, and above all, human beings, as they get curious about the moments that move us and the ripple effects they create. Mindful. Messy. Movd. Human. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

John Christian Phifer joins host Mariah Rooney to talk about death and grief and the ways he is radically reimagining those with Larkspur, a revolutionary conservation burial ground in Tennessee. John Christian reminds us that death is a part of life and that our cultural distancing from death and from grief mirrors our disconnection from the earth. He also shares with us a path back to reconnection.
World-renowned musician Joshua Roman joins Mariah to talk about his art and his life-changing journey with chronic illness. Joshua has brought the healing power of music to communities around the world as a cellist and composer.
Read the story behind Joshua’s piece Drive that scores every episode of MOVD and listen to his latest album Immunity.
