Be mindful in all that you think and do.

“When you follow a leader, consider what would lead you to withdraw your support.

If the answer is nothing, your integrity is in jeopardy. Your highest loyalty belongs to principles, not people.

No leader deserves unconditional love.

Commitment is earned through character.”

-Adam Grant

With the New Year upon us, many of us have embarked on the old tradition of setting New Years Resolutions. We do a little inventory on our lives and determine to change what we don’t like about ourselves, our behaviors or environment. We’ll try to ad that which is missing, or subtract that which is useless or harmful in one way or another. In general, I think this self reflection a good thing to do. But why limit it t...

Lo and behold, Santa delivered this episode directly to your device while you were sleeping! What a sneaky and jolly good fellow.
Christmas itself has changed more than my opinions about it. As I get older, and now have a child of my own, my relationship to this holiday continues to change.

I couldn't decide what to title this episode so as not to give it all away. There were several good title contenders: Doobie Dilemma, Doobie Dunce, Kush Core, Cannabis Coma, Cannabis Creep, Cannabis Corpse, Moderate Mary, From  Mary to Buddha, Taking the Bud out of Buddha etc. the list could go on and on. Ultimately, I decided on Cannabinoid Android for the reference to the Radiohead song 'Paranoid Android&a...

The big news is revealed. Plus, how do you pull yourself out of a creative funk? What have I been doing since my last recording? 
Just the act of freely expressing oneself, even if only to oneself, is extremely liberating. If you stick with it until the steam subsides, you just might get to the root of the issue.

Recorded on August 3, 2023, the third anniversary of the podcast. This episode sat untouched for nearly 4 months before I edited it. This episode is a bit of a three year recap, some things I've noticed, learned, and would like to change. Why has it taken 3 and a half months to edit this episode? We'll talk about that in Episode 25. Stay tuned.

She is here! The light has emerged out of the darkness.
All things are held in a state of balance. Picture the Chinese symbol of Yin Yang. Equal parts black and white, which chase one another in a circle infinitely. They coexist. They are intertwined. Not a single thing is exempt from this. There is a dark side to everything light, but there’s also a light side to everything dark. There is always a positive with a...

Vacations are interesting things. They are like little life microcosms. In most instances we attempt to vacate our regular lives, jobs and responsibilities. Yet we find pretty quickly that we cannot escape ourselves. Sometimes in an attempt to be free of stress for a short time, we end up creating a lot more of it through our planning and expectations. We make a plan and we want to stick to it. A lot of the time we go...

A few years ago I was having a difficult time in my mind. My life on paper was great, but I was constantly being bombarded with thoughts of inadequacy, meaninglessness, and unimportance. 

I had heard the founder of Headspace, a meditation app, in a radio interview some months earlier and had downloaded the app upon his promise of making life a little bit better if I dedicated at least five minutes a day to mindful medi...
