January 23, 2018 12:00 - 19 minutes - 19.5 MBIn reaction to how close the publishing date for my book was the other day someone asked me, "Are you just so proud of yourself?!" The question caught me off guard because if I'm being honest I wasn't proud of myself. I wasn't proud because I hadn't taken time to feel that yet. So after taking a couple days to continue with all the busy hubbub of all this book release excitement, I also took some time to feel the full effect of attaining a really huge milestone for myself.

ps039: A Powerful Recipe & Exercise for Guaranteed Improvement
January 09, 2018 12:00 - 20 minutes - 20.8 MBThis week I needed to hop on a soapbox. I saw a quote the other day attributed to the lovely Brené Brown which I (shockingly) disagreed with. Normally, I love Brené's work, but the quote I read of hers did not sit right with me. So in today's podcast episode, I outline why I disagree and how I would've said what she said a little differently. It is my belief and I've witnessed this to be true in countless environments, that we MUST constantly evaluate ourselves in order to have constant imp...

This year has been my "year of money" and what I've noticed is that I actually *like* talking about money and making money. That was not always the case.

Bailie is a guest nomination from a previous Bare Naked Brave...

December 12, 2017 12:00 - 46 minutes - 42.4 MBI've really been looking forward to having someone one the show to talk about Imagination and specifically how that looks in quantum physics. Now, before you tune out and roll your eyes about either science or magical mysterious stuff that we typically have a hard time explaining, I want you to know this stuff really does matter.
