Episode 206 - This episode was created by watching the US soccer match this evening and a player received a red card and was disqualified from the rest of the match. The US team was leading 1-0 and one person down with 36 minutes to play. They all rallied around their teammate before he left the field and I will end here so you can listen.

Episode 205 - This episode is about Being Present. It goes over an interaction I had with a sales associate in a DIY big box store. He saw my shirt from my church which said "I'm glad you're hear" and he (Mr John) responded I"m glad I'm here to, meaning himself.

I end up describing more of the interaction throughout the episode.

I would love to hear your stories. Feel free to send me and email and describe one of your experiences.

Episode 201 - This episode talks about the tools we use in life and our profession. This came from a moment when I saw a van that had 20 ladders stack high and it made me think. They have ever ladder they need for any job. The ladders were their tools. So what tools do we have for the jobs, conversations or situations before us. I hope you will give this a listen and I would love to hear your feedback.
