  • Red White and Blind - with Tony Brasunas

    TONY BRASUNAS, independent journalist and author of the forthcoming RED, WHITE & BLIND: The Truth About Censorship in America and the Rise of Independent Media, which aims to explore media distortion and disinformation in the U.S. as well as the upswell of independent media that has risen up to combat it.

    An independent journalist, Tony Brasunas was censored and sacked by Huffington Post in 2016 for covering the Democratic Primary from the wrong perspective.

     

    He's been researching censorship, media distortion, and disinformation in America for five years now, with the distinct hope that the underlying facts about "fake news" in America -- and the disinformation that is peddled every day in our corporate media -- will inspire Americans to exercise and defend our rights to Free Speech and a Free Press.

     

    He grew up in an intentional community in West Virginia, spent an adventurous year in China being lied to by their media, and lives now with his wife and son in Sebastopol, California.

  • 5 Steps to Starting a Side hustle or Solo Biz

    Today I'm sharing what I believe are the first 5 steps anyone should take when starting a new side hustle or solo biz.

    “You don't have to be good to start ... you just have to start to be good!” -unknown“Don’t let perfectionism become an excuse for never getting started.”

    Step #1 is to “know thyself”

    Jim Rohn said it this way. "If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much."
    • DISC assessment
    • Interests
    • Passions
    • Skills/strengths

    Step #2 is to know your "WHY".

    There are two great days in a person’s life – the day we are born and the day we discover why. -William BarclayA good life should always be made, not to be waited for. -anonymousThe purpose of human life is to serve, and to show compassion and the will to help others. ~ Albert Schweitzer
    • Mission
    • Vision
    • Purpose


    Step #3 is what/when/where/how do I want to live?

    Mark Houlahan - "If you truly want your life to be a magnificent story, then begin by realizing that you are the author and every day you have the opportunity to write a new page."

    From Jack Spirco on the Survival Podcast

    • Stomp #1 What do I want in my life that I don't have
    • Stomp #2 What do I have in my life that I don't want
    • Stomp #3 Where do I want to build my life
    • Stomp #4 Develop 'how can I' questions. 
    • Stomp #5 Develop a financial plan
    • Stomp #6 List everything you have and are grateful to have in life, work, etc
    • Stomp #7 Deep analysis of what is in my sphere of #1 Control, #2 Influence, #3 Concern
    • Stomp #8 Quit worrying about what other people are doing or saying. If you wouldn’t take their advice, don’t waste time on their criticisms.
    • Stomp #9 Review "how can I" questions and turn them into "this is how I AM going to do it" statements Prioritize, and act on at least ONE
    • Stomp #10 Take action on ONE thing from your “how I AM going to” statements. Do something TODAY
    • Stomp #11 Accept the fact that you deserve exactly what you want, you just haven’t done the work yet
    • Stomp #12 Find people who have exactly what you want and examine what they did to get it.
    • Stomp #13 Work your lists every day, making updates. Don’t stop until you have exactly what you want.


    Step #4 is Opportunity 

    Ikigai

    • Skills
    • Passions
    • Opportunity
    • Financial potential
    • Learning/teaching
    • What the world needs


    Step #5 is to take action

  • Where did you come, from where did you go?

    This episode is a look back at 2022, the goals I set and accomplished (or didn't), and a look forward to the things I want to do, be, and have for 2023.

    “Perhaps when we find ourselves wanting everything, it is because we are dangerously close to wanting nothing.” ― sylvia plath“Learn to light a candle in the darkest moments of someone’s life. Be the light that helps others see; it is what gives life its deepest significance.” ― Roy T. Bennett“Be grateful for what you already have while you pursue your goals. If you aren’t grateful for what you already have, what makes you think you would be happy with more.” ― Roy T. Bennett“Anyone whose goal is 'something higher' must expect someday to suffer vertigo. What is vertigo? Fear of falling? No, Vertigo is something other than fear of falling. It is the voice of the emptiness below us which tempts and lures us, it is the desire to fall, against which, terrified, we defend ourselves.” ― Milan Kundera

  • Sometimes you have to quit to move forward
    Sometimes strength isn't about perseverance. Sometimes it's about knowing when to quit.  ~ Jennifer Donnelly

    No I'm not quitting the podcast, but I AM in the process of quitting some things that aren't serving the direction I want to go in life.

    What do YOU need to quit on so you can move forward on building what you REALLY want in life?
