If there is one thing I have done while I have been off of social media and my phone the last 6 weeks… it’s been READING…

I’ve read spiritual discipline books.

I’ve read a book filled with Etty Hillesum’s WWII diary entries that changed the way I look at humanity as a whole…

Episode 074 - I've Been Off Social Media For 5 Weeks. Some Thoughts & Decisions That May Surprise You... Sep 01, 2022

Show notes

I thought I was going to be off social media for 3 weeks...

Then it turned into 4 weeks...

Now it's past 5 weeks...

Why am I taking so long to come back?

What am I learning?

Will I come back?

Today is a very, and I mean very, Carlosish episode of rabbit trails and deep thoughts that lead to shallow thoughts that trail back to ridiculous thoughts that I hope you will find somewhat insightful and helpful as you navigate a world that demands we share everything about everything...

Maybe, just maybe we can do it better...

Episode 073 - Remembering Our Piano Man... Tonee Valentine Aug 25, 2022

Show notes

I’m so glad I stopped by the piano bar in the Atlanta airport that day and saw your infectious grin. I was exhausted from 3 days of airplanes and hotels and you looked happier than humanly possible. Nobody was paying attention and they had no idea they were missing the concert of their lifetime.
All I wanted to do was let you see me…see you…
But as fate would have it that 30-minute conversation would change more than my life… but the lives of so many others…
You were and will always be the Instafamilia Godfather…
The media thought we changed your life…
Little did they know it was the other way around…
As I told you on the phone this morning as I said goodbye...
Enjoy playing hymns for The Almighty @toneepianoman …
We will miss you ferociously and wait in anticipation of seeing you again on the other side of the veil…

Episode 071 - 3 Steps To Leaving A MILD Faith and Entering a WILD Faith w/ Carlos Whittaker Aug 11, 2022

Show notes

This is a first…

I normally like to keep Podcast Carlos and Preacher Carlos on different planets…

But today they meet each other and can I tell you… I’M EXCITED FOR YOU!

Why?

Because I invited preacher Carlos on here to deliver to you a message soon how to leave a mild faith and actually believe the crazy stuff we have been saying we believe for a long time.

I used to think 60% living was good enough…

Nope.

Not anymore.

Life to the full means getting to 100% and I think I can help you get there today…

Episode 068 - Redefining Success - The Secret Society Of Success with Tim Schurrer Jul 21, 2022

Show notes

This one is LIFE CHANGING YA'LL!!!

No hype. Everything can change if you put what Tim teaches us into action.

I've watched Tim work alongside my friend Don Miller for the last decade. I've watched him be the #2 at that company.

And I've watched him redefine what it means to be successful...

To be successful, we think we have to step into the spotlight or climb the ladder.

"The Secret Society of Success" introduces a new way to define success that’s counter to what culture is selling. And when you learn to live in this new way, you’ll start to enjoy your work and life again.

Pick up a copy of The Secret Society Of Success wherever you buy books...
