You Don't Have To Pick It Up
Life advice for anyone who, like me, feels the need to DO ALL THE THINGS which need doing, even when those are not your things to do.
The One About The Plants
A life story about how wanting fresh air in my bedroom led to me irritatingly asking, "Who keeps turning the light on in my room?!" I promise that will make perfect sense when you listen to this episode.
What Do You Believe?
I'm not asking what your religious or spiritual beliefs are, I'm asking what you believe moment-to-moment which has a direct impact on your behaviour. If a friend who is glued to her phone doesn't respond immediately, do you "believe" that you must have upset her, or that she's gotten into an accid…
100 Thing List Revisited... Kinda
100 years ago I wrote a blog, long before blogs were cool - and just recently I gained access to it again. In today's episode I'm sharing two articles from 2006 and seeing what has changed (and what hasn't!)
Happy, Healthy, Safe and At Peace
I end almost every episode by saying, "May you be happy, may you be healthy, may you be at peace," and today, I want to talk about what all those words actually mean. What does it mean to be happy, when all of us define it differently? What does health mean, and so on?

I'm also going go let you know what's happening in Season Two (and when to expect it). It's been an amazing year for this podcast - thank you for listening, let's b…
Lesssons from 44 Years Part One
It's December, my favourite month of the year! Among other things it's my birthday month, and my birthday always has me feeling very reflective. In this episode, I'm sharing some of the lessons which have been on my mind this year - everything from the philosophical to the absolutely ridiculous.
The Concrete Balloon
When other people say crappy things about it, we often let those words bury into our soul, where we carry them around like a balloon filled with concrete. The sad thing is, that person said what they did, then moved on with their lives. So how do we, too, move on with our lives after someone says s…
The Turn Left Life
A couple years ago I came up with a concept called The Turn Left Life. In today's episode I'm going to tell you all what that means, and how it has a direct impact on all the goals I make for myself.
