The Best Podcast

Today’s podcast is a sneak peak at the longer piece I’m working on of my takeaways from journaling everyday over the last 3 months. As I did last time, I plan on going through these takeaways and expanding on them in a longer written piece, which I will read on the podcast. Today’s episode is a sneak peak of what expanding on a takeaway from the last three months might look like. I hope you enjoy the episode and find it valuable. Thanks so much for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

Today’s podcast is a whirling conversation through COVID, disparities in health outcomes, drug use, communities, history, our marginalized and minoritized communities, and a conversation we need to have. It was a wandering road, but it was a road that I think we need to go down as a society. I hope you enjoyed the conversation. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

Today’s podcast is a discussion of common critiques to “new age” psychology, philosophy, and “self-help”, which I agree with but think lack a more complete picture. My discussion attempts to dive into additional details to complete that picture, or at least contribute to completing it a bit more. It was an episode I enjoyed doing and I hope you find it to be valuable. Thanks so much for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

Today’s podcast is about an idea I recently stumbled across but I think is a really valuable one. Before you start an endeavor, make a plan for when you will quit. Tune in to hear why doing this could be such a beneficial idea. I think you’ll find value in it. Thank you for listening. It means a lot to me. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

Today’s podcast is about the great value of being vulnerable when sharing with others in conversation. Opening up in a vulnerable way is a practice that can teach us a ton about ourselves and others, which I walk through here in the episode. I hope you find it to be valuable and that you can perhaps apply some of what I said in your own life. Thanks so much for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

Today’s podcast is about the value of reading. It’s a habit I’ve had off and on since the end of high school, but each period of time in which I read consistently has brought me significant benefits. I’ve really started to notice this after getting back into reading more again over the last week or so, so I wanted to take some time to share with you. I hope you find it as valuable as I do and perhaps feel inspired to take it on as a habit. I give some tips on how to develop a reading habit at the end as well. As always, thanks for listening. Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

Today’s podcast is about something that surfaced in the media and on social media following the hiring of Chauncey Billups as the head coach of the Portland Trailblazers, a professional basketball team in the NBA. It was a frustrating thing to see for me, so I wanted to spend some time to talk it through here, as it has some significant implications. I hope you enjoy it and find value in it. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

Today’s podcast is a story I heard about Beethoven over this last weekend. He lost his hearing around the age of 30, which at the time seemed like it would be devastating. However, it instead sparked some of his most creative and expressive work in his career. How did this happen and why is it relevant today? I work through those questions in the episode, in which I hope you find a lot of value. Thanks so much for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

Today’s podcast is a special one. I present to you a conversation with my grandma about the early stages of her life. As you’ll see, she has so much to share. Our relationship has flowered over the last couple of years and I’m so grateful for it. Perhaps you’ll see why in this episode. I hope you enjoy it despite the lawn mowing in the background and the lightness of her voice. She is nearly 87 after all. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

Today’s podcast is an exploration of the value that observing and participating in “drama” can have for us. We often give drama a blanket negative label, when in reality it has a lot of social value that goes ignored. I wanted to explore that side here and then share some thoughts on how to live a good live without drama. It’s a different angle, but it was fun for me to think through, so I wanted to share it here. Thanks so much for listening. I hope you found it to be valuable. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.
