Transcribe →Thank You for Being Kind - Ep 16
Mar 2300:22:56Tap to summarizeCLICK TO SHARE YOUR COMMENTSBe Kind are two simple words with a huge impact. Positive feedback is a form of kindness that builds self-esteem, provides encouragement and can even be a way of showing love or friendship. In today's episode I share some recent moments where people showed their appreciation to me, and how it made me feel. With shared stories of kind actions, I bring to light that we should let people know we appreciate them when we can, before that opportunity is no longer in front of us. Thanks for listening!

Transcribe →Fair is Not Always Equitable - Ep 15
Mar 1700:27:01Tap to summarizeCLICK TO SHARE YOUR COMMENTSWhen I was growing up, my mom told us "What is Fair is Not Always Equitable." I didn't know what that meant. Fast forward over 55 years later, and I think I am finally getting it. In today's episode I touch base on the word "Fair", and what it means to me. A few shared experiences and a touch on how we can help pave a path for kindness for generations to come. Thanks for listening! This is a hobby podcast, with a positive vibe.

12 - Mistletoe Musings & Holiday Wishes
Dec 2300:29:52Tap to summarizeShare Your Comments!Christmas is a time of year when many people shine bright lights on the outside and the inside. In today's episode I share positive experiences I had with really kind people during recent weeks. With reflections on the holidays, spirit of giving, and so much more. I even start the podcast off with a little holiday poem I wrote in the wee hours of the morning when I recorded this podcast. When I get the urge to write, I just have to do it, and that's what happened in this episode. Whether you hear this before Christmas, or after, the message is still the same. Kindness can go such a long way, and we are all in this world together. Back with Season 2! This is a hobby for me, a creative outlet and a chance to share some positivity.

Transcribe →11 - Happy Begins with Me
Dec 1700:37:08Tap to summarizeShare Your Comments!Happy is such a great word. What makes you happy? Do you need lots of excitement, exotic vacations, new toys...or does the whisper of the breeze in the trees bring a smile to your face? I had a great walk this past week, and the rain on my face reminded me some of the best things in life are not always visible. In today's episode I chat about happiness, seizing the moment, finding the right time and balancing what needs to be done vs what can wait until tomorrow. Of course I provide an update on Sinéad, how her feet have healed up from bumblefoot and talk about chicken politics in the coop. For the record, I probably should have gone on time out myself in the chicken coop after this episode. Be sure to wear earbuds on this one if you have little kids in the room. Back with Season 2!

Transcribe →9. No AI in the Chicken Coop - Robots Don't Feed Our Hens
Nov 2600:28:53Tap to summarizeShare Your Comments!Is it real or is it fake? When I was growing up, fake news was typically gossip created by a bully. In today's age, it's the same concept yet delivered in a different manner. Technology can be a wonderful thing, if used for the right reasons. In today's episode I talk about adapting to technology changes, especially for people who are getting older. With new AI technology, it can be a challenge to decipher when things are really what we see. *IMPORTANT - ADULT CONTENT: I used one or two words that could put me on time out in the chicken coop. I also talked out cannabis being legal at the time I recorded this podcast, and this is only in reference to where I live in Canada - I can't speak for other areas.

Transcribe →8. Slow Down, I'm Trying to Learn
Nov 1200:35:02Tap to summarizeShare Your Comments!What have you learned in the past week? If I asked you that question today, what would you say? In this episode I look at life, learning and how we learn may change as we grow older. I share stories of learning experiences that could have had a better outcome with different communication strategies. From a senior who got fired from his guitar lesson, to a young student humiliated on stage, events happen that can affect our own self-esteem. With a bit of hindsight and humility, we can change our own directions and find ways to work together. Never give up, you are worthy! Back with Season 2!
