Nobody Told Me!

(Apple Podcast’s Best of 2018) When mother-daughter duo Jan Black and Laura Owens first conceptualized their two-generational talk show, nobody told them they’d snag the title of #1 self-help podcast for months on end! But that’s exactly what they’ve done, delving into topics as far-flung as network building, the importance of failure, finding hope after being kidnapped, and how the principles of brain surgery can help us work through everyday problems. Featuring interviews with extraordinary individuals, Nobody Told Me! shines light on the shared human experiences that bring us together, and the challenges that serve as catalysts for our greatest growth. Nobody Told Me! combines Jan’s impressive broadcast journalism background with Laura’s unique, millennial perspective. Driven by a genuine desire to educate and empower, their pioneering platform gives insight into the strategies and secrets of people in all walks of life. Equal parts information and inspiration, Nobody Told Me! brings a personal touch to the interview process. Together, Jan and Laura are asking the questions that help their listeners get through life’s toughest times.

Spike Carlsen: ...why curiosity is one of the best traits we can have Nov 26, 2020

Show notes

Most people are having a difficult time finding gratitude this year. It's hard not to be bitter and take the good things in our life for granted since we have all been, at the very least, inconvenienced, and at the most, death of a family member. We're all in search of ways to feel better, and on this episode, we talk to bestselling author and journalist Spike Carlsen, who says that you can feel thankful and grateful by just stepping out (with a mask, of course) and really noticing things in our neighborhood.

Spike has written a fascinating new book called, A Walk Around the Block: Stoplight Secrets, Mysterious Squirrels, Manhole Mysteries and Other Stuff You See Every Day (And Know Nothing About).
