  • All Good Things Must Come to an End with Dale Kushner

    Today on The Cameron Journal Podcast, we are joined by Dale Kushner, who is the author of Wild Freedom: The Princess Who Found Her Name. And we talk about the beginnings of things, the end of things, the power of femininity, and we reflect on her being my last guest on this show.

    Which reminds me, this will be the final episode of The Cameron Journal Podcast. It has been a wonderful 12 years with everyone, and the podcast has been one of the greatest joys of my life.

    Thank you for allowing me to take you on this journey. Check out my socials for my next moves into a new chapter.

  • Happiness During Difficulty and Depression

    Today on The Cameron Journal Podcast, we're talking with Joe Atman about happiness in support of our upcoming big virtual summit.

Visit summit.soopmedia.net to learn more about our summit and what we're discussing. On this episode, we dig into happiness during the tough times in life, and this one is spicy because the disagreement between Joe and me only gets partially resolved, and he spells out the formula for happiness pretty clearly. I don't really accept it, but he offers it, and it gets a little spicy at the end, so stay tuned for the whole episode!

    In this episode, we explore happiness as a philosophy, and we really dig into happiness as a state of being. I want to apologize for the lack of video on the part of Joe because he was in the mountains, trapped in a cabin by late-season snow in the Sierra Nevada. So, for our video viewers, you're stuck with audio from Joe and video from me. But this is a great discussion. Take us with you on a run while you update your Strava.

  • Celebrating That Zen Farm with Marcy Waelti

    Today on The Cameron Journal Podcast, we are joined by Marcy Waelti. She is a Gestalt equine therapy practitioner for neurodivergent people, and she does this work on her magical slice of land called That Zen Farm. 2 years ago, she had no idea that she was going to write a book or that she should even write a book, and we've worked together over the past 2 years to make her book a possibility, and now it's out! If you're a professional working with ND clients, ND yourself or a parent, this book is one part memoir, one part practical advice, and one part exploration of how horses can heal humans.

  • Democracy and the Fallacy of Voting

    We've had a couple of guests on recently to talk about how we can fix government and democracy, but no one has worked on this so much as Edmund Maklouf. His audio is a bit quiet due to his setup, but listen carefully, and we'll question things like voting, how we decide who the leaders are, and what the group should do, and how we scale that to entire societies using ancient principles. His new book, The Majority Myth: How Voting Really Works, Why It Is Failing, and How We Can Fix It questions the math of the majority and why majority rule may not be the way forward.

  • Summertime and Other Short Stories with Stanislas Yassukovich

    Today on The Cameron Journal Podcast, we are joined by Stanislas Yassukovich, who is the author of many books, and we'll be talking about his latest book, Summertime and Other Stories. He is someone who has come straight out of the British writing establishment with all the right books published by all the right people. His life is fascinating: his family moved around Europe and America, which led him to drop out of Harvard twice and eventually into banking, where he worked in the City of London, helping create modern international capital flows and becoming the godfather of the modern, globalized economy. The great writing was just a side gig. We're going to talk about his life and so much more in this fascinating chat where I say very little. Listen along with me.
