Which Way Is North
Where do you look to find humanity? What is the purpose of creation? How can we find our place within or beyond technology’s reach? Questions start conversations. Answers end them. This podcast takes the quest in questions to explore the infinitude of human experience by welcoming guests to discuss what arises for them when asked seven strategically open questions from the book, ’Which Way Is North: A Creative Compass for Makers, Marketers, and Mystics” by author and host, Will Cady. Join for conversations with artists, entrepreneurs, cultural leaders, mothers, fathers, authors, models, speakers, strategists, and good human beings who are each given the opportunity to choose their identity: speak their truth underneath their given name or stretch out behind the anonymity of an archetypal name. Which of these do you suppose yields a conversation with more humanity? Listen and decide for yourself. Learn more at willcady.com

There’s a question keeping the scientists up at night.
Are we aligned?
You’ve most certainly heard of alignment before. Maybe from an auto mechanic talking about your tires.

Just as much as your circumstances change, who you are as a person changes with them. Just as much as the people, the environment, the events in your life continue to evolve and unfold, so too does your inner journey ...
Culture is the output of community.
Few people understand what this means better than our next guest, Jenny Boyd.
To explain who Jenny is, it's best to actually just read the bio from the jacket of her book, Icons of Rock. It reads, "Jenny Boyd is a former 60s model and the younger sister of Patty Boyd, who was married to George Harrison and Eric Clapton. Married to Mick Fleetwood twice. Jenny has been immersed in the world of rock...
How do you get to the place where knowledge is power, when so much information is poison? Well, it starts with how you start your day. How quickly do you reach for your phone and start scrolling through the feeds? At which step from bed to bathroom to kitchen to stepping out in the world do you tune into the news?
I was at a gathering recently at the home of our next guest where someone said something so stimulating to my ears. They said, "a wizard knows the hidden paths." That was really interesting to me because this event itself was what could best be described as a 'gathering of wizards.'
Now, 'wizard' is a term that has been eclipsed in recent years by the term 'shaman.' When people are trying to describe a person of magic, they are t...
What you're about to hear is an intimate search for humanity. In particular, it's a lot of me trying to understand the feminine part of humanity. This conversation took place at the very end of my almost decade run playing my role in building Reddit into the business that we know today.
On my very last day, I had taken a trip to London to speak at an event in Soho, and my last words as an employee of the company were, "my name is...
