Lately, I've noticed that as a society we have been criticizing individuals while we claim to need change. I have a real problem with that. Historically, when change happens it is because someone had the presence of mind to do something different. After listening, tell me if you agree.

Last week, I talked about recognizing the Gems of Joy that are given to us by others, and how important it is to be someone else's Gem. This week, I want to stay a little closer to home. Check out this week's episode and let's see if we can kick this year off right.

A harsh word, even poorly aimed, can destroy its target. On the other hand, a kind word...even if it is whispered...can have power enough to fuel a soul for days.

This week, I take a few minutes to talk about the rare gems of joy that we find on our path. These gems may seem insignificant, but if recognized they can make a huge difference.

Inspiration comes in many forms. Sometimes it is a conversation with a great friend. Sometimes it comes from a well scripted animated feature that a great friend recommends. Catch this week's episode to see where that inspiration lead me.

Is the time that you are spending with your family or loved ones leaving a lasting impression? Are they going to remember it in 5 years, much less tomorrow. This week, I want to point out some things that I've noticed and recommend.

Have you ever known someone with an impulsivity problem? They drop everything on the spur of the moment to do something crazy and exciting. For some, that is just a normal thing...for others, it is a sign of a deeper issue. Impulse Control Disorders can lead someone down a dark and dangerous path. This week, I talk about how we can support our friends and loved ones if you notice this kind of behavior.

This week, the idea for my episode came from an unexpected place. Listen and found out where.

Another short episode about the things that I’m thankful for. How about you?
