Start your day with me every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for 5 to 15 minutes.
MIND CHALK Podcast
Thoughts are fleeting—thank goodness. But what about those profound thoughts that transiently float in and out of our minds throughout the day? This show is about some of mine, presented to you full of imagination and extrapolation, and sometimes expressed in anapestic tetrameter or a random song verse.
Join me for a fun, provocative & entertaining look at ‘thought.’ Episodes are below and on your favorite podcast players.
61. More Than Meets the Eye
Ugh, today's thought is rough to revisit, but it gives me perspective on something worth sharing with you.
60. Feeling Your Way
How do you navigate your day, the course of action you'll take, or the decision of what comes next? Today, I share my thoughts about using (or not using) feelings as a beacon for productivity.
59. Let’s Talk
Join me as I remind myself and my listeners about what may just get us through this challenging political landscape of the forthcoming election.
58. Buyer’s Rejoice (not Remorse)
Today, I share a story that reminds us to trust our gut. That's all I'll say. Just listen.
57. Be the Light
Today, my fleeting thought reminds us to be the positive light in the darkness during these harsh times (even though I make a case for the darkness being a relevant part of our experience). Only LOVE will save this place.
56. Digging Ditches
Most tasks or efforts require a perspective shift to make the mundane meaningful or fulfilling. Join me for this brief episode focusing on making anything (except for cleaning toilets) fun.
55. “I Coulda Been Somebody”
Today, I do a horrible impersonation of Marlon Brando while hoping what I share helps us all to see something new and essential.
54. Nailbiter
Today, join me as I share an anxiety-ridden thought process that reminded me about how tricky futuristic thoughts can be.
53. All We Need Is Inside
We can all use this reminder today. As we watch political debates and witness the insanity of Mother Nature's fury, we can all use a nod to a universal reality that can make all the difference.
52. Hidden Wholeness
Today, I scratch the surface of bringing forth the 'shadow' side of ourselves, speaking of it relative to integrity.
51. You’re a Volkswagen
Join me today as I share a story that helped me recognize how personal judgemental perspectives can be. Happy Friday the 13th!
50. Just Do It
Today, I'm diving in to encourage you to take that first step toward something you've been wanting to bring to life for a while now. I also make a fun (indirect) announcement!
49. New Direction
I love analogies. Join me today as I use three of them to emphasize the importance of taking new (and uniquely yours) directions.
48. Echolalia
In today's brief pod, I confess to a conversational "condition" I have had most of my life. It's a fleeting thought that's much lighter than yesterday's admission.
47. Authentic Coat
Today, I share a part of my past that taught me an invaluable lesson. It has to do with a time a few years ago when I allowed myself to be out of integrity to survive my days.
46. Impact of Thought
Consider today's episode a refresher on the premise of 'thought' as I see it; as well as a fun nod to a good ol' fashioned Texas hoedown that solidified my girlfriend's understanding of my tenacious nature.
45. Carol King
Wow. I don't even know where to begin describing this episode. Simply put, never in my life would I have thought I would feel the way I feel about Carol King today. My hope is that something in you, too, will shift after hanging out with me today.
44. Middle of the Road
If you know me, I pretty much stay in the middle of the road on most issues. I remain there because it gives me the best vantage point. Hang with me for a bit today as I express why that position is a good idea for all of us right now.
43. At a Glance
Today, I simplify seeing something and being reactionary to it. We all do it, but there are ways we can be more conscious and take our initial reactions to things less seriously. One way is to slow down and trust that we are safe and okay in most moments.
42. Joy, Hope, Peace, & Love
Today, I tried something new: recording on the go. On my morning walk, to be exact.
