The Practice with Colin O'Donohoe

  Step into a world of warmth, honesty, and inspiration with the first episode of Dream CPR: The Practice with Colin O’Donohoe. In this deeply personal and uplifting debut, Colin—a lifelong composer, performer, and bandleader—invites you on a journey to rediscover your most cherished dreams and give them new life, no matter what life has thrown your way. Colin shares the core beliefs behind Dream CPR: that our dreams come from the divine, that they can never truly die, and that, even through life’s darkest chapters, our spirit—and our dreams—remain untouched, waiting for us to listen once more. With heartfelt vulnerability, Colin opens up about overcoming profound personal challenges, from vision loss at 23 to a recent, transformative stay in detox, and reveals how even in the bleakest moments, our dreams remain whole, ready, and waiting. This episode guides you through the first steps of the Dream CPR practice: •C—for clarity, calm, or centeredness—offering down-to-earth tools like mindful walking and gentle music to help clear the mind. •P—for process and perceive—exploring how dreams evolve and what they reveal, illustrated by stories ranging from teenage rockstar fantasies to the delightfully unexpected dream of becoming a fire truck. •R—for realization—embracing the journey of living your dreams every day, in both grand and humble ways. Colin invites you, the listener, to join the conversation: What does “C” mean to you? What dreams still linger quietly within? Through encouragement, compassion, and a generous dash of humor, this episode sets the tone for a podcast that’s equal parts practical toolkit and soulful companion. Tune in, reflect, and begin your own Dream CPR journey—because your dreams deserve love, clarity, and laughter, and so do you.
