012. Why I Left New York

November 24, 2019 02:28 - 24 minutes - 42.9 MB

Hi all; doing something a little different today. Instead of an interview this week, I've decided to share a story of my own: why I left New York. Now that I have a little distance from living there and have begin to meaningfully work through the ups and downs of what really happened during those ten years, I realized that it was important to share my journey in the week leading up to Thanksgiving. I know many of you are going through big life changes, and from the people I've talked to so fa...

011. Long Distance Goals with Andy Bartelsmeyer

November 17, 2019 10:00 - 1 hour - 106 MB

You probably know a few runners in your life; you may even know a few people who have completed a marathon or two. But ultra-runners like Andy Bartelsmeyer are a different breed of athlete. Not only do they run distances that most of us can't even imagine, they commit to their training with a fierce discipline that is truly inspiring. In this interview, Andy and I go in-depth about the culture of ultra-running: from the day to day schedule, the community of running, and how to set goals for t...

010. Inside the INTJ Mind with Lindsay Johnson

November 10, 2019 10:00 - 58 minutes - 90.9 MB

As some of you may know, one of my main hobbies and passions is the study of personality type, specifically the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. In today's episode, I'm speaking with typology expert and entrepreneur Lindsay Johnson. Her YouTube channel, LiJo, explores the ins and outs of the Myers-Briggs system, specifically the INTJ type (which happens to be my type as well!). We talk about personality type as a whole, what each of the four letters means, and how to use your type as a tool for p...

Letting Go of the Forever Summer with Amy Berryhill

November 03, 2019 10:00 - 1 hour - 91.5 MB

In today's episode, I have the immense privilege of speaking with "soul coach" Amy Berryhill. To her, the work that she does goes far beyond life coaching because she believes in getting to the emotional and spiritual root of the roadblocks and old wounds that her clients are in the process of working through. In this interview, we talk not only about her history as a yogi and a coach, we also talk about the role that social media plays in personal development these days; in particular, we t...

008. The Songwriter's Journey with Katie Ludden

October 27, 2019 10:00 - 1 hour - 98.3 MB

I've always deeply admired songwriters. I've been playing guitar and singing since before I could talk, but I never really had a knack for rhyme or lyricism. My guest this week, Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter Katie Ludden, is kind of the opposite: she's been singing and writing catchy songs since she was a kid, but didn't start playing the guitar until she was twenty-nine. Through dedicated, deliberate daily practice, and the support of her LA songwriting group, she went from being able ...

October 20, 2019 10:00 - 1 hour - 105 MB

In the wellness space, the practice of Yoga can take many forms, but my guest this week is committed to a truly holistic approach to both yoga and her life. Pranidhi Varshney has been practicing yoga for well over a decade, and she has witnessed firsthand how the space has changed and grown, particularly with the advent of social media. In this episode, we talk about the importance of practice in all areas our life, how being a mother will show you who you really are, the double-edged sword o...

006. Chasing Dreams with Delano Ponce

October 13, 2019 10:00 - 51 minutes - 78.1 MB

This episode of "Magical Living" features a guest who is unlike any guest I've had so far, at least when it comes to "creative" types. Delano Ponce is now a financial advisor, but he began his professional career in pursuit of playing Major League Baseball. And this wasn't just a pipe dream: he was an All-American, got recruited to play Division I baseball, and was clearly on the right track to go pro. But through a series of unexpected events, he slowly started to realize that the life of a ...

005. The Art of Activism with Theresa Burns

October 06, 2019 10:00 - 1 hour - 97.8 MB

Today's episode is one that's very special to me, as it features one of my dearest friends, activist and theatre maker Theresa Burns! In addition to being an immensely talented actor, singer, dancer, director, and choreographer, Theresa is also passionate about social justice. As part of "Don't Dream It, Be - An Activist," she's currently directing and singing in a benefit concert for the ACLU at Feinstein's/54 Below in New York City on October 10th at 9:30PM. “Songs from Cult Classics to Ben...

004. Embracing the Mess with Aaron Lehr

September 29, 2019 10:00 - 56 minutes - 87.2 MB

In this episode, I get to speak with multi-faceted artist Aaron Lehr! In this deeply introspective interview, Aaron and I discuss all the ups and downs that come with being an artist. We talk about being influenced by different artists, why Prince's death hit both of us so hard, how to handle (what we see as) rejection, and of course, how to live in the mess of creativity and trusting that when we look back on our body of work that it will have some kind of cohesion.
