On emotional perseverance 24.04.2024 6:26 ↓

Some thoughts on processing feelings and emotions healthily.

Decisions that default to no. 23.04.2024 3:36 ↓

3 takes before I decided the episode was good enough. Also I pivoted between those 3 episodes dramatically. So that's a little meta decision making for ya.

Add or remove for growth 22.04.2024 4:56 ↓

I was pruning my plants a little today and giving them fertilizer and it got me thinking about why we do that and how that applies to other parts of our lives.

One really great thing, maybe two. 21.04.2024 4:25 ↓

If you want to do great things, you have to accept it'll just be a few.

Default to kindness 20.04.2024 5:14 ↓

The second part of the last episode. The missing piece of kindness.

You are responsible for your own success (and failure) 19.04.2024 6:15 ↓

I prefer to be in the driver's seat of my life. Do you? I've written out the notes for this episodes like 5 times over the last 5 days, and I think.. I finally figured out how to say what I wanted to say. The Push/Pull article I was talking about: https://kellanem.com/notes/push-and-pull

We learn a lot by trying 18.04.2024 5:11 ↓

An episode meant to be about experimentation that really did turn more meta, but still delivers the point.

The question to ponder more often than not. 17.04.2024 4:04 ↓

I've spent my days recently thinking really really hard. Asking myself questions. So I thought I'd bring the one that most often comes to mind to the podcast more explicitly today.

Two Minute Hugs 16.04.2024 3:44 ↓

Hugs are a kind of magic. Let's celebrate the power of hugs today.

What nourishes you? 14.04.2024 4:43 ↓

I'll share what was nourishing for me today, in hopes that you go do something nourishing for yourself. :)

The vision isn’t set in stone 14.04.2024 2:57 ↓

Our goals are aspirations not perfect pictures. They can't be, otherwise they wouldn't be goals, they'd just be things we do again.

Supporting Hooks 13.04.2024 4:24 ↓

Sometimes I just sit and breathe as I observe and trace the pothos plant in my house with my eyes. So today's piece is inspired at least in part by the pothos I have. :)

What’s even more important than communication? 12.04.2024 6:01 ↓

Do you sometimes wake up with questions that are burrowed in your mind and refuse to get out? That happens to me sometimes. And today's question has literally hounded me all day, I've evaluated and thought about it every waking minute, and it probably shaped at least half the conversations I had today.

Some musings about fate. 11.04.2024 3:59 ↓

We all have some underlying beliefs about fate wired into us from childhood. And I found myself think and talking about that with some folks today.

On honesty 10.04.2024 5:39 ↓

I'm back after being sick for a while! And today we're talking about honesty and how I interpret honesty.

Let's talk about burnout 26.03.2024 6:42 ↓

This is a longer episode. And a pretty personal one.

Something about power, influence, doing what needs to be done, morphed into a pondering on leadership today.

Flux 24.03.2024 3:21 ↓

On experiments in real life.

The day after 23.03.2024 4:55 ↓

I missed an episode. Now what?

What is the role of evaluation? 21.03.2024 3:16 ↓

I started one place and got to another. Sometimes that happens. Today it was about the meaning of evaluation.

There IS an ideal amount of stress. 20.03.2024 2:48 ↓

Too much stress can make something snap. Not enough stress stops growth.

Finish something everyday 19.03.2024 3:57 ↓

The satisfaction of completing something, even if it's small, is perhaps underrated.

The conundrum of approval 18.03.2024 5:00 ↓

Inspired by a tweet that used the phrase, 'the courage to be disliked'.
