What happens when the world breaks your heart and everything you thought you knew crumbles around you? In this deeply personal conversation, Dominick Domingo steps away from his hosting role to discuss mythic fiction novel "The Seeker" with his sister, humanities professor René Urbanovich. Their discussion unveils the powerful transformation story at the heart of this ancient myth-inspired tale set in Bronze Age Minoan culture.
Inspired by Dominick's own brush with death during the pandemic, "The Seeker" follows Amitayus, a young man scouring the Greek isles for his missing mother, Dianora. Unbeknownst to him, she is a Goddess, rendering him a demigod unaware of his divine heritage. What begins as a physical journey becomes an internal odyssey of rediscovering one's true essence—a journey we all share. As René and Dominick explore the novel's themes, they reveal how the protagonist’s struggles with despair, disillusionment, futility and self-loathing mirror our own cycles of transformation.

Now more than ever, it’s tempting to throw our hands in the air and surrender to futility in the face of global strife. Storytellers know we must renew hope daily. We are being called upon to embrace our interconnectivity, transform paradigms, and trust the ripple effect will play its part. In the words of Lion King producer Don Hahn (Episode 8), “Telling stories is one of the most important professions out there right now.” We here at Language of the Soul Podcast could not agree more.
This podcast is a labor of love. You can help us spread the word about the power of story to transform. Your donation, however big or small, will help us build our platform and thereby get the word out. Together, we can change the world…one heart at a time!

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
