  • Episode 977: Tears

    This weekend was a nonstop onslaught of activities. It felt like I was running from the time I left my door in NYC to the time I returned to it over the course of four days. Many emotions ran through me, and I was happy with the way I dealt with them when I had a second to be with them. I share my experience here, which I hope you find valuable. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 976: A Couple of Weeks Away

    Uncharacteristically, I have missed 2 weeks of uploading a new podcast episode. I could make up many excuses, some of which I share in this recording, but at the end of the day, we all make choices. Each day, there was an opportunity to record. There always is. Everyone has ten minutes, whether they want to admit it or not. And yet, here we are. Today, I made a different choice. I’m happy with that, and I hope you enjoy listening to the outcome of that choice. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 975: Better Relationships

    Today’s podcast is a broad reflection on Terry Real’s How Can I Get Through to You. He offers such a compelling framework and set of insights about how to have better relationships. The main focus is on romantic relationships, but the principles are generalizable across all types of relationships we have. I summarize some of the principles and ideas he shares here, which I hope you find valuable. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 974: How We Start Our Days

    Today’s podcast was seeded by some observations I had this morning on the subway. My eyes were opened in a pretty strong way about the ways even the smallest of choices and behaviors can affect us, so I wanted to share my experience here. Perhaps you’ll hear some passion in my voice in a way you might not often hear on this podcast, so I hope you enjoy that little twist. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 973: Focus and Simplify

    Today’s podcast is short and sweet, just like its central topic. Living life simply, in a more disciplined, focused, and consistent manner, over the last 3 months has brought me so much. Challenge, learning, satisfaction, and more. I discuss the experience and what I’ve learned along the way thus far, which I hope you find valuable. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 972: A Conversation with My Mom

    Today’s podcast is a special one. I take some time to sit with my mom and talk about a wide array of topics. We discuss her childhood, parenting, her career, her marriage, her perceptions of me, her parents, and much more. It pulled some tears out of both of us, and I imagine it may for you as well. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 971: Integrating Masculine and Feminine

    Today’s podcast pulls from a book I’m currently reading by Terry Real. In it, he tries to build a bridge for men and women to better understand each other in their relationships to one another. It’s a powerful read. One passage jumped out to me that I wanted to share, which serves as the focus of today’s episode. I’m sure it will bring you something worth chewing on. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 970: FOMO and JOMO Return

    I return to a topic today that I discussed over 6 years ago. We often experience a fear of missing out when there are many joys that also come along with it. I share some of my thoughts on this, in addition to sharing a current example of this. I hope you enjoy it and find some value in what I share here. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 968: Common Knowledge

    This was a fun episode for me. It allowed me some space to reflect on an area of significant personal evolution over the past decade or so. Communication is complicated, but opening ourselves to be fascinated by it and to study its nuances is a powerful act. I describe my personal journey with that here, offering what I’ve learned and its implications. I hope you find value in it. Thanks for listening z as always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 969: The Problem of Evil

    Today’s podcast is inspired by a singular paragraph from Carl Jung’s autobiography in which he discusses the relationship between self-knowledge and understanding evil. It brings so much to unpack, which is why I dedicate an entire episode to it. I’m sure it will bring you something worthy of reflection and feeling throughout your being. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.
