This week's episode was all about authenticity . We had a conversation with creator and owner of The Foodie's Fit Home . Both Ashley and I had changes in attitude during this episode! Ashley's change was around why she was on the show and broadening her platform and mine was around the definition of authenticity. I'm talking "Thriving in the Transition" in action, people! What does authenticity mean to you and what role does authenticity play in your transitions? Please connect with Ashley and c...

The way we view the world, our mindset, can have an impact our intended results. In fact, my mindset AND some electronic circumstances almost led to this week's episode not happening. However, you're reading this - so, it did happen - thanks to pausing and thinking about this situation. Similarly, one of the most powerful and opposing points of view are Scarcity and Abundance. Which are you more comfortable or familiar with? Additionally, feel free to check out the the blog post I created on thi...

What are you thankful for? How do you show appreciation? How do you practice gratitude? All of that and more in this week's episode. I share my perspectives on gratitude and I even bring in reinforcements from the medical and psychological communities to share definitions, tips and best practices related to gratitude. We also talk about the health and well-being benefits of gratitude. It's a great episode! Feel free to check out the sources that I referenced in this episode: ~ UC Berkeley - How ...

What's the difference between getting stuck and floundering in the transition and being motivated and thriving in the transition? I think it is as simple as the difference between Creation and Consumption. Those that create MORE than they consume are the people that have the power and opportunity to affect true change. Think about it - like voting - you can go out and let your voice be heard and be part of the change or you can be silent and let change happen to you. The reality is that those wh...

What about faith? Don't you have to have a certain amount of faith during transitions? Yes, yes, you do! This week we get to talk with James A. Harris III about faith and the role it plays during our times of transition. There is a dependability – a guide – a destination – a purpose that is there even when people fail you.

It's easy to let finances have undue influence during our transitions. The insecurity of NOT having money in the bank, losing a job or somehow "pivoting" can be stressful. Conversely, the security of having savings or other assets may provide a boost of confidence or comfort when it's needed the most. This week we talk to Andy Hill, podcaster, blogger and speaker on how finances can have an impact on the transition. He also shares some tips on how to make the most of your finance during this cra...

Hey gang! We made it to the end of my first podcasting season!!! I want to do a couple of things with the Season 1 Finale: 1. I want to do a season in review, of sorts. I want to do a refresher of the previous 19 episodes and my key takeaways from each episode. 2. I want to share what I’ve learned through the creation, production, marketing and scheduling of the podcast. I’d actually consider this to be another episode of our “On Series”… so this episode will be “On Being a Podcaster”. I present...

If you like last week's conversation, you're going to love how Steve Reimann, Sarah Zadigan, and I wrap-up the conversation on "humility" this week. The "Humility All-Stars" absolutely killed it!

Today's episode almost didn't happen! I had lots of ideas for the episode, but nothing that fit. That is until my wife told me, "Don't worry, inspiration will hit - it always does." Thus, this episode on inspiration was born! And in the episode I share my tips and tricks to make space for inspiration to make an appearance. Oh, and there is also a nice discussion about muses. Here's a quick recap of my personal list of ways to help coax a burst of inspiration: · Music · Podcasts, e-books, books, ...

On this episode we explore all the things that I've learned about transitions from my children. I reveal unto to you my Top 10 Things that I've Learned from Fatherhood . 10. Find your style – challenge what you THINK you know 9. Patience is a virtue (and a necessity) 8. Creativity (Be flexible and adaptable) 7. Scarcity is not their reality 6.

This episode is about choices. Choices are everything during a transition. Choices are the difference between getting the job or not. They are the difference between meeting the love of your life or sitting at home by yourself. Choices are even the determining factor between happiness and dissatisfaction. I’m not talking about being right or wrong; or even making a good choice or a bad choice. I want to talk about choices in terms of being responsible for your choices and their outcomes versus u...

OH MY GOSH !!! We had an amazing person and an amazing friend on this week's episode. You get to meet Lynn Watkins-Asiyanbi. She is a passionate business leader and equity warrior (I totally just made that up - but it sounded really good!) We had a a great conversation on time vs commitment. Being able to separate time vs commitment will help you thrive more - in a transition or in general. Lynn shared some great tips and points - but more so, she shared her life and her story. And I thank her f...

Today I want to talk about one of my favorite concepts – wandering. This episode is all about wandering and Keri Smith's book The Wander Society. I found the book to simply be life-changing. It was familiar and yet totally innovative – both at the same time. It supported many of my own beliefs AND challenged my thinking. It reaffirmed my experiences AND sparked my creativity. So, this episode is dedicated to all things wandering and The Wander Society! One of my favorite concepts from Keri Smith...

This week I wanted to do something different – I wanted to go against the grain. I’ve been talking the past several weeks about transitions and how you know you’re in transition and even guests to help illustrate Thriving in the Transition. This week we wanted to have some fun and talk about movies. I am joined, again, by Steve Reimann (Instagram: @bow_tie_ginger; E-mail: bowtieguy23@gmail.com ). We wanted to use movies to help illustrate what I’ve been saying for all these weeks. Transitions ar...

I was compelled to do today’s episode based on current events and some bread crumbs that were left for me in the forest of life. (You guys know I have a poetic soul, right.) I knew I wanted to do an episode on realizing the world isn’t safe for the first time. On top of all that, in case you missed all the emails from every service provider or major corporation that you do business with - have an account with – a rewards card from – a membership to – or you accidentally clicked on their Facebook...

Whoop here it is!!! Today’s episode is all about having a goal or a destination or, as we mentioned in the last episode, having a “daily intention”. It’s my belief that without a goal or destination there is NO WAY to thrive in the transition. No destination means no focus; no direction; confusion; and no way to measure progress. Perhaps, most importantly – not having a destination creates the perfect excuse to avoid accountability and responsibility. I was joined by Tammy Parrish. Tammy is an i...

It's here, it's here!!!! We are honored to introduce you to Steve Reimann - our first guest and long-time friend. In fact, his mom was my 1st grade teacher. Steve is one of those people that always has a positive outlook and I wanted him to share what worked for him during his transitions - especially in the context of positive intent and impact. What actually happened was so much more than we could have hoped for! But you be the judge... And if you want to connect with Steve - you can do so wit...

I tie all of this up with my Top 5 Love Songs That If Applied To Ourselves During a Transition Would Help Us to Thrive. Please subscribe to this ...
