Recharged by the Good Life Sep 16, 2021

Show notes

Back from hunting for a week up in Montana with some amazing people. It's hard not to feel recharged after spending time with a caliber/ quality group on a ranch living the good life.

Lead, Don't Chase Sep 08, 2021

Show notes

Lead, Don't Chase.
It's something that a good friend and mentor said to me once and that he holds it close to when leading his business. I'm finding it strikingly relevant lately as I look into friendships, goals, business; and maybe most significantly, at myself.

This is Leadership? Pfft. Aug 26, 2021

Show notes

People who do not truly know what Leadership is and cannot get away from their own personal interest/ ego should not be Leaders. Especially among the governing body of our Nation and responsible for the better good/ lives of citizens.
Our Nation's Leadership is a joke. It is failing our country. From local & state through Congress and upwards.

Trust. Trust Who? The Government? Aug 18, 2021

Show notes

I find it increasingly hard to figure out who to trust these days. Certainly not the media. Certainly not the Government.
Whatever happened to Leadership. Like, true genuine Leadership?
If there was anyone to be trusted it should be ourselves - to start thinking critically for ourselves. Instead of being continually conditioned to just believe and follow what we are presented.

Wanting to Get Picked for the Team Aug 06, 2021

Show notes

Coming off a two week client engagement and on the back side of coming out of the 'crud' I am finally up and sharing some thoughts again.
I'm sharing how I look at Leadership from a certain lens of driving myself to be more.

Reinforcing Consistency & How I'm Wired Jul 15, 2021

Show notes

Spending a few moments talking about making sure how I'm influenced supports who I am and what drives me.

Evaluating Friendship Jul 01, 2021

Show notes

Spent some time recently thinking about my needs, wants, and ability to deliver on friendship. Relationships are less than clean and there likely isn't any single blueprint given we are all different and think and value in our own manners. It felt good to just listen to myself try to organize how I appreciate and evaluate friendship.

BFF Fundraiser Decompress Jun 23, 2021

Show notes

Just finished up our annual fundraiser for our non-profit: www.bigfishfoundation.org and trying to sort through the fuzz I'm feeling. What a great success but it's hard not to feel a little empty and sad now that it is over.
It always happens like this after immensely powerful experiences. Thoughts are largely un-composed, feeling full yet fatigued and listing in drift. But, knowing all well that it had tremendous impact and value.

Forcing Life & Karma Jun 10, 2021

Show notes

Back from a two week hiatus. Simply wrestling with the concepts of being consistent vs trying to force things at the expense of the authenticity that I'm pursuing.
Conversation about putting negative energy into the world and how it returns. A flip side of the coin that I talk often about - 'whatever you want most out of life, give it first."

Monsters & Dangerous Men May 12, 2021

Show notes

Had a buddy of mine share an article and ask me some thoughts on this 'inner monster' Jordan Peterson and Jocko talked about on a recent podcast.
Coincidentally, I had just gotten done talking to a guy I served with who was having some issues feeling like he was going into a dark place and messaging another guy about staying in control as he struggled with anger and frustration.
So, on a long car trip I wrestled around with some thoughts and a few quotes from Peterson, Nietzsche, & Jung. Looking forward to reading the 'Beyond Order' book and listening into the Peterson / Jocko podcast now.
