Valerie Flynn is an author / podcaster and learner. She enjoys following rabbit trails wherever her curiosity leads her.

Professionally, Valerie worked in film/video & radio as a production manager / producer for over 30 years with her father and brother. Some of the media projects she worked on was with Hanna-Barbera, Putnam Berkley and Turner Entertainment.

She was a co-producer of the Words of Freedom radio show for 9 years. Inspired from the Words of Freedom ~ Men of History Living History Audiobook.

Valerie has also assisted in classroom education since 1994 in media education related classes at various schools including the Arvada Center for the Arts and Colorado Film School.

She was one of the contributing authors of the Writers of Meaning: An Anthology on Community, published in August 2024.

Miss Flynn can get a little distracted working on her various projects, biting off more than she can chew. Like starting not one, but two video podcasts: Nara Fellowship and Writers of Meaning.

Life is an adventure. The journey is sweeter with friends.

Nara Fellowship is two things: a video podcast and a learning club.

This \"Don't Subscribe If\" video is an introduction to what Nara Fellowship is about. While most people try to get you to subscribe, Valerie gives you 6 reasons why you shouldn't subscribe to her podcast.

Nara Fellowship is a video podcast that documents Valerie's learning journey and includes what she's interested in. Visit her website to connect online or subscribe to her newsletter: https://ValerieFlynn.com/

Nara Fellowship is a podcast about learning about learners, where we share our learning journeys. Sometimes it will include good faith dialogue in the spirit of Intellectual Hospitality.

It's a mix of short monologues and interviews with regular folks and people of renown.

The topics include:

writing

marketing

history

essential oils

health, care-giving, living with disabilities and chronic health conditions

emergency preparedness

community

self directed learning.

Even though Miss Flynn may have conversations with academic guests, the focus will be on personal enrichment for self learners, creative professionals and history re-enactors/ enthusiasts.

These videos are short monologues about Nara Fellowship. More will be added in the future.

Video Titles:

Why a Bridge, a Prism and the Moon: The Why, the Spirit and What Nara Fellowship is about.

Questions About Learning for You:

Do you or someone you know have answers to any of my questions?

1. Why do we devour podcasts?

2. What is the history of \"Edutainment\" after Jauque Cousto on PBS?

3. Why do we pursue curiosity? What's going on at the heart / soul level?

4. What's the bad side of a knowledge hungry culture?

5. Why do we enjoy learning new and interesting things?

6. Why do we pursue what interests us? What's really driving us?

7. Is there anyone researching or pondering the \"Why\" of learning instead of just the what and how to's? If yes, who are they and what have they figured out?

8. What desire is pursuing academic success fulfilling? Like fame does in media/publishing industry.

9. Why does Paul of Taurus warn women not to chase after knowledge? Stating they will be preyed upon by bad men. What's going on there?

I would like to talk with folks about these deeper things. Not just the how's and what's of learning by the why's behind our curiosities and the pursuits of transformations and dreams. I'm not an expert, I'm just a learner who wants to connect and talk with other learners.

Please leave a comment with your thoughts or e-mail me. My contact info is on my website. The link is: https://valerieflynn.com/

Looking forward to reading and hearing what you have to say.

* Sorry for the minor typo in my website in the video. One viewer kindly let me know the \"c\" was missing in the .com of the website. Unfortunately, I can't fix it. I'll be more careful in the future.

Learning Club and Discord Server:

Are you a writer, creator or learner?

Join us to work on your learning projects in progress and make friends who encourage you in your endeavors.

This once a month learning club is a two hour session where we chat for a half hour before and after about what we're learning about with an hour between to focus on our learning projects individually. With a timer to let us know when the hour is done.

Space is limited due to room space to 15 attendees so people must RSVP in advance.
