CHOICES — Ordinary People, Extraordinary Lives

Parallel to the launch of my website, and probably one of the biggest reasons that I created a website, is the launch of my podcast, CHOICES – Ordinary People, Extraordinary Lives.

Holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl said, “Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” Or, in a nutshell, think before you react; you have the privilege to choose. Choose well.”

As its title implies, the show is meant to highlight the power and privilege of choice in our lives. It is inspired by the hundreds of mindful and inspiring people I have met in my travels around the world. Men and women who are always learning and growing. People who are living with purpose and adding value to the world.

Passion, Purpose, Perspective

Often, when it’s too late, and people are deeply rooted in their career paths, do they realize that the very path they have been following is not at all where they want to be going. The problem is, when they’re in the moment, they don’t realize it’s happening. They find themselves trapped, with fewer options.

Thus, I want this show to grab the attention and the curiosity of the listener. I want to wake people up from a “going with the flow” mentality and encourage people to be more intentional about the choices they make. I want to help people to realize that they can do meaningful work and still make money doing it. I want to offer diverse perspectives that will empower people to find purpose in their passions.

Podcast Guests

Defining traits of my podcast guests are that they each value time over money and are striving to build a lifestyle that honors that value. They value personal fulfillment over material acquisition, and again, their lifestyles are a testament to that. Lastly, they are not perfect, and yet, as you will hear, they have each learned enough from their choices to lead lives that will inspire you.

Not only do I want to share my guests’ stories with my listeners, but I want to share their failures, their victories, their choices, their habits, and anything else that might shed light on how they have arrived at their version of success.

I believe these stories will illuminate some of the lessons that my guests have learned on their journeys so far. More than anything, I want this show to offer a glimpse into the bigger world.

Please have a listen and please share your feedback in the comments section on iTunes. A positive rating will also be tremendously valuable to me. So thank you in advance.

Happy listening!
