I’m forever grateful for Wendy Colonna introducing me to Rick Diamond. As two deconstructed SWAMs (straight, white, American, males), we hit it off immediately and have watched our initial interaction blossom into a rich friendship.

In this 3D Conversation, we talk through what it takes to re-imagine yourself. More than re-invention, re-imagining yourself is intentionally re-designing your life story to match your mission, talents, and goals.

In this Manologue episode, I share how increased consciousness and awareness has also included regrets about past behaviors and decisions.

Sara Alvarado an entrepreneur, business activist, and author. She is a fascinating person who is truly living her mission. She tells more of her story in the episode, but at the essence of it is her efforts to create more racial justice in the real estate and mortgage industry.

In this week’s Manologue, I share my opinions on these seven topics:

* Can we please stop asking each other “How are you?”

* I’m at a stage of life where I can’t tell if I’m aging or evolving.

* Alexei Navalny and Volodymyr Zelenskyy are lions

* Country music’s moment

* I love the Travis and Taylor story. It’s just a bonus that it pisses off the right people.

* White dudes with cross necklaces outside of their shirt

* The illusion of simplifying your life (instead, manage your mind)

Bobby is a dear friend and client (who also officiated our wedding!). He recently responded to his calling to leave the ministry and become a leadership coach. With his gentle strength, well-honed intuition, and ability to ask great questions, Bobby is the perfect coach for today’s men. In this 3D Conversation, we talk about “The Lost Boys” - my term for men who have a lot of surface success but have lost connection with their souls.

In this Manologue episode, I share my perspectives on two different but over-lapping meditation paths - one for calmness and one for insight.

It was great to have one of my best friends in the world back on my podcast! In this 3D conversation, Mike Green and I talk about the concept of personal expansion.

I don’t do a lot of “how to” stuff on the Third Way, but this Manologue shares some mindfulness methods that I’ve used to better understand my feelings and choose my behaviors.

Creativity is an essential element of living a whole life. As ancient as time itself, creativity remains mostly misunderstood. One of the most creative people I know is singer-songwriter, explorer, and mystic Rusty Tinder. Rusty is one of my closest friends; one of several two-man support groups that I’m blessed to have. Rusty and I are also occasional songwriting collaborators. Be sure to check out his music!

In this final podcast episode of 2023, I share some recent epiphanies about doing “The Work”.
