hospitality service connection generosity creativity self-care radical hospitality joy ancient wisdom Tao Te Ching

What do a fine dining maitre d. A magician burying cards in a backyard and a toddler looking for Elsa have in common? They all show us that magic still exists. If were willing to care more, than seems reasonable. In this episode, Will Guidara, whos a former co-owner of 11 Madison Park, which was once named the best restaurant in the world, the author of Unreasonable Hospitality and advisor on the hit series The Bear, shares how he transformed a restaurant into the best in the world not through perfection but through moments of radical hospitality. Whether it was sending out hot dogs on fine China or designing hand signals to pour water silently. It was never only about the food, it was about making people feel seen. This is a conversation about joy, about seeing service not as subservience, but as nobility and the kind of creativity that invites connection.

The Tao Te Ching is one of those books I keep coming back to. Ancient wisdom, wrapped in poetry, that somehow feels more relevant every year. Like this line: If you look to others for happiness, you will never be happy. If your well-being depends on money, you will never be content.Simple. Clear. Actually useful.Ive teamed up with Rebind.ai to create an interactive edition of the Taoforty essential verses, translated into plain, everyday language, with space to reflect, explore, and ask questions. Its like having a conversation not just with the Tao, but with me too. If youre looking for more clarity, calm, or direction, check it out here.

Key Takeaways:

  • The concept of hospitality and its significance in various aspects of life.
  • Insights from the restaurant industry and the transformation of dining experiences.
  • The balance between kindness and excellence in service.
  • The importance of making people feel seen and valued.
  • The idea of unreasonable hospitality and exceeding expectations.
  • The role of creativity in building meaningful connections.
  • The impact of self-care and generosity in service roles.

meditation mindfulness paradox awakening separation reality Tao Te Ching inner radio clarity calm direction

In part one of this two-part conversation, we walked along the edge of paradox where effort gives way to ease and the search itself becomes the obstacle. In this second part of my conversation with Zen teacher Henry Shukman, the way begins to reveal itself, not as something we grasp, but something we live. We talk about awakening, the collapse of separation, and what it means to encounter reality directly beyond language, beyond self. And we find ourselves circling the same mystery from different directions, Henry through the Zen path and his app The Way and me through a new project with Rebind, which is a new AI powered dialogue with the Tao Te Ching. Different forms, different longing to meet life more honestly, more fully and more whole.
