  • Ep. 143 - The Power of Passion: Enrich Your Mind, Work, Life

    We'd love to hear from you!

    What's the difference between a hobby, a passion, and your purpose? This episode from December 2023 explored the concept of passion and how and how often it shows up in our daily work...and life. Passion is not simply a result of external factors or individual preference, there is also an interplay between the brain's reward system and our own individual experiences. However you define personal joy, the more you indulge in it, the more rewarding it is to your head (and your heart).

  • Ep. 142 - Making Decisions: Why 'Yes' & 'No' Are Hard to Say

    We'd love to hear from you!

    We make thousands of decisions every day. Some are conscious, clear choices and others are subconscious routines. There are also the Yes and No answers that are obvious and immediate. Other times, we find ourselves stuck between the Yes and the No and grapple with how to decide and then how to share that decision. This replay of Episode 38 looks at the root of that resistance, how to recognize your internal signals, and move from discomfort to decision.
