#1641: Moving extra slowly and sharing a Tiny Adventure from the past
Apr 24, 202300:19:16Tap to summarizeEpisodes of OTT are rather spaced out at the moment and I'm feeling rather the same!In this episode of the podcast I'm heading out to see the chickens and talking a little about how I'm finding myself moving at an even slower pace than usual and leaning for support of my past work. I then play you a previous unheard episode of The Tiny Adventure Podcast that I shared over on Patreon last week. Wishing you the best week possible. If you'd like to explore the idea of Tiny Adventures a little more, visit The Go Gently Library where, towards the bottom of the page, you'll find a downloadable TA checklist and a short podcast explaining more about what I think Tiny Adventures are and how to embark on one yourself. Happy Tiny Adventuring!Throughout March and April I'm experimenting with what I post on Patreon. Join at any level to follow my experiment and to see if it's the right place for you. You’ll find plenty of gentle encouragement there to help you live and create at the pace that's right for you. #1641: Moving extra slowly and sharing a Tiny Adventure from the past Michael Nobbs One Thing Today is brought to you with the kind support of its patrons.If you would like to support the ongoing recording of these podcasts then please visit my Patreon page.

Mar 21, 202300:17:50Tap to summarizeLast week was an odd week, that culminated in a walk to Big Oak Field with a flask of hot coffee and my recording this podcast for you.

After visiting The Big Oak, the walk turns into a rather pleasant mushroom-spotting clamber around the edges of The Caterpillar of Oaks… #1632: Mid-mourning Michael Nobbs One Thing Today is brought to you with the kind support of its patrons.If you would like to support the ongoing recording of these podcasts then please visit my Patreon page, where you can find out how to receive podcast extras, twenty minute work sessions, vlog posts and even a personal podcast sent out just for you each month.Your support would be very much appreciated <3SUPPORT: TIP JAR | PATREON
