Send me a message Have you ever wondered why some cultural touchstones seem to vanish with each passing generation? At a recent holiday gathering, I was caught off guard when a trivia game revealed that many hadn't seen the timeless classic "It's a Wonderful Life."

We ponder whether this generational disconnect is a symptom of the digital age or a natural progression in our ever-evolving cultural landscape. Reflecting on the past year, we extend heartfelt wishes for a joyous and secure New Year, encouraging all to embrace life's uncertainties with boldness and reminding you that you're not alone in this adventure.

Empathy and Isolation: Life Lessons Part 5 7:37

Send me a message What if empathy was your secret superpower? Join me on this special episode as I share personal reflections on the profound lessons aging imparts, including how learning to view the world through others' eyes can transform relationships and diffuse conflicts. Over the years, I've come to realize that empathy isn't just about understanding others—it's about questioning our assumptions and recognizing our roles in the challenges we face. By sharing anecdotes from my own journey, I hope to inspire you to cultivate this skill, fostering deeper connections and making our divided world feel a little less isolating. We also pay tribute to the late Marina Keegan, whose collection "The Opposite of Loneliness" challenges us to reconsider the barriers that keep us from truly connecting with one another. Her poignant essays continue to resonate, urging us to embrace our shared humanity and the power of empathy to alleviate loneliness. Her insights remind us that true human connection is about more than love or community; it's about knowing we're all in this together, even when times are tough. NOTE: Quotes used in this episode are from the essays of Marina Keegan as published in the Yale Daily News and the book, The Opposite of Loneliness: Essays and Stories by Marina Keegan, Emily Woo Zeller, et al.

Our heartfelt conversation will guide you in embracing self-care as a path to greater kindness and wisdom. Whether you're feeling disheartened by recent events or simply seeking to better understand the role self-care plays in our lives, this episode offers insight and encouragement.

Send me a message Part of the journey of getting older is the connection we have to places and people from our past. This episode I invite you to join me as I reconnect with my old radio partner, and fellow podcaster, Jeff Alan Wolf. Picture this: It's the 90s in South Florida, a time when local talk radio was the heartbeat of community conversation. We were right in the thick of it, riding the waves of unpredictability, enjoying the excitement of our live radio talk show until it ended unceremoniously during a July 4th weekend. Join us as we share personal tales from this vibrant era, recounting encounters with controversial personalities like Steve Kane, and exploring the industry's shift towards shock value—a route we consciously steered clear of. Through our stories, we weave in our broader reflections on the media landscape past and present. Now, as we embark on our new adventure from the sunny realms of Florida and Arizona, the excitement of podcasting beckons. With a blend of humor and nostalgia, we say a fond farewell to our radio chapter while embracing this fresh start. Who knows where this uncharted path will lead us, but we're ready to explore it with optimism and camaraderie. Come along for the ride as we fuse the past's charm with the future's promise, sharing insights and laughter along the way.

Send me a message Imagine hitting rewind on the Tony Awards, reveling in the unscripted magic that unfolds when the writers are away. That's just the prologue to our heartfelt salute to the iconic John Romita Sr., whose pencil strokes on Spider-Man comics left an indelible ink on my childhood. Venturing further, we tackle the quirky societal waltz of 'acting your age,' and I can't help but wonder, who exactly choreographed these steps? We wrap this segment with a tale from a sweet 16 that's more than just cake and candles—it's a snapshot of the milestones that frame our ever-ticking timeline. Enter the world of Dan Harris, where wit meets wisdom and a touch of humor unveils a path to mental wellness. His candid confession of a career-crumbling panic episode and the subsequent journey into meditation opens up a refreshing narrative on self-improvement. It's not about becoming a Zen master overnight, but discovering the joy in inching towards being just 10% happier. Join me as I share the simple, yet life-altering meditation techniques that Dan advocates, promising a dash of serenity in the daily hustle. Tune in for an episode that's part memoir, part guidebook, and entirely geared toward embracing the beauty of our collective evolution. Support the show Remember to LIKE, COMMENT, SHARE, SUBSCRIBE.
