Table Rush Talk Show

Effectively I get the ok to move forward with my headline and move on with the next steps of the summit process.  I.e. starting to interview speakers, all the tech side of things, etc.  As the excitement wears off and the magnitude of the coming steps of the process settle in…  I get to decide if this is something I really want to do, or can I even do it?  I’ve got a simple life, and I like that....

The A Course In Miracles incites some funny god talk, ego talk, and a little vulnerability.  And how do I have the hard conversations with love? Notes: The course in miracles just gets juicer and juicer… I am not required to “not have impure thoughts”.  But it does require that you have “no thoughts that I would keep.”  I’ve got to let go of all thoughts, good and bad, I don’t get to decide.  Let...

I go down a bunch of thought rabbit holes on this episode which is super fun!  For example: You only need to live in the moment when you want to live in the moment and the thoughts that stem off of that.  What is required to have a good human experience? The idea of keeping your thoughts to yourself and feeling isolated.  A little on Self Love.  I little on can I transcend the idea of having to “d...

An awesome little oration on what my current jobs are and what the distractions are that are keeping me from them.  Also a nice little bit on the meaning of objective vs subjective; including examples.  And “my time for glory may come” but said in a different way.  Please enjoy! Notes: What my job is and some of the distractions that are keeping me from it.    The job for me today is to: Publish e...

When I played ping pong in collage and was a professional snowboarder in my youth, I learned that if I could have fun, well I won a lot more.   But when I tried to “Win” I rarely did and I didn’t have fun.  I’m trying to bring the “have fun” process and mentality into my current project…  And the thoughts and stories around this. Show notes: What if this part was fun?  What if time was an illusion...

Greg Beckett is a motivational hypnotist that I met five or so years ago at a Kyle Cease “Flow Group”.  We hadn’t talked for a couple of years so it was time to catch up.  And as Greg knows about me and I know about him, we have a lot of fun.  We talk identity, boundaries, and the Superconscious.  Am I a better man because of our conversation?  Yes, I am.  Did I learn something that helped me?  Ye...

I record a podcast episode with a friend listening in.  The “A Course In Miracles” was good this morning so I go through my notes as well as all the Webster’s Dictionary definitions of words that I liked.  Kind of an experimental episode :). Show notes: A Course In Miracles (ACIM) super juicy this morning.  Some notes and thoughts I wrote down:  Ego - the fact that we can think about ourselves.  W...

Shout out to my listeners in Spain!  More thoughts on moving away from judging people, places, things as good or bad; and my three main areas of current growth.  And an update on the results of saying the resentment prayer towards those unfortunate souls who tweak me.  All in a super fun manner of course!  Notes: An update on the resentment prayer. I think that judgment equals resentment.  I’m goi...

Recording the late night episodes gives me new life.  It’s like I turn it over to you the audience and I explain that in a fun way.  I discuss some breakthroughs from the meditation thought list that I had shared with you 2 episodes ago.  Introducing the idea of "Do it yourself, do it with help, and done for you".  And even more fun stuff… Show Notes: There was a breakthrough.  Recording the late...

It’s a beautiful Encinitas, CA day as I literally stop smell the flowers, and record my thoughts on the nuances within this prayer “God give everything that I want for myself to ________, god give them their prosperity, happiness and health.”  And of course I was irritated with someone earlier in the day which brought that prayer to my mind. Show Notes: I don’t really record nearly as much as whil...

 I sat a pen and piece of paper down next to me because I thought it would be fun to write down all that thoughts that were going through my mind as I was meditating this morning.  So here’s the list. Show notes: It’s almost like unburdening my soul on you, how fun is that.   I decide to write down the random thoughts that were plowing through my mind as I was meditating.  So here you go.  The las...

I interviewed Barbara Karnes today (the interview should be out in a week or two) and I had so much fun that I had to record an episode talking about the interview. Barbara has been very influential in the hospice industry as well as writing very powerful booklets on grief, dying, and the like.  One of which changed my life.  I also talk light heartedly about some of the grief I’ve gone through. S...

Laura and I knew each other at the height of the Dot Com bubble in San Francisco in the late 1990’s.  We hadn’t seen each other for over 20+ years and it was time to catch up…  Why not do an interview.  Laura is smart, a deep and thoughtful thinker, and successful to boot.  She is a full on self starter with a whole bunch of life story and plenty of insight.  We have a ton of fun and you get plent...

Rumer is if you want to "grow" your subscribers you need to offer "how to" episodes...  The 5 steps for this the 10 steps for that.  So in that vein, here is my first stepified how to episode.  Enjoy. Show notes: My first how to episode!  “The 10 simple steps to publishing an episode every day”.  There are lots of arguments as to whether you should publish everyday or not.  Quality is subjective s...

My hour mediation and then a section of ACIM leads me to some out there fun thinking this morning.  And to committing to the people are just a mirror concept and the actions I’m going to take today as a result… Show notes: ACIM, Chapter 14 TEACHING FOR TRUTH, Section 6 The Light of Communication.  How do I bring love to the attack moments?  How do I let the light of love dispel the moment?  How do...

Or “how much smack have I talked about man bun guy”.  But it all starts with growing a ponytail which reminds me of my youth in Jackson Hole, WY.  Which leads to my fathers eulogy and inheriting his genetic twitches.  To the meat of the matter: assuming the person is just a mirror of my own thoughts actions and ideals; how I think I’m enlightened relative to you is judgmental.  And more! Show note...

So I was researching Jay Shetty per someone's recommendation that I “see how he does things”.  Now I don’t even know the guy, but his success stokes my competitive nature, my insecurities and defenses, and this leads me down the all unfulfilling path of resentment and judgment towards him and myself.  I get to laugh all about it on this episode and how fun it was to see it all go down in my medita...

 3 main thoughts: First, proof that my limited thinking has kept me from seeing what is right in front of me.  Second, my friends opinions of my project drive my insecurities toward my own work, and at some point I need to stop taking in new information.  Third, other peoples online success fully throws me into compare mode and drives those insecurities home!  But it’s not as bad as it all sounds....

It was going to be an episode on “Loving where I am, right now.”  But it turns into an exposition on Blacks Beach in San Diego.  One of the most beautiful spots in Southern California, one of the best surfing waves in the united states, and treacherous to get too.  It really could be an advertisement for my town. Show notes: Loving where I am, right now, that’s what I want.   Blacks Beach in San D...

John Flannery was such a fun interview; he has this dry wit which shines through in his story telling and it continually has me laughing.  I don’t know, John is just a good man.  He willingly talks about his highs and his lows, the joys and the tears, and his struggles and his breakthroughs.  He is a family man to the core, stands up for what he believes in, and has the job of his dreams.  We talk...

It was going to be a discussion on a juicy section of “A Course In Miracles”, but I end up talking about how much I love meditation, how I approach it, and the amazing benefits in the moment and perhaps years later.  Including the calmness, the download of information, and the massive massive space it creates. Show notes: Wake up early, do an hour meditation, some prayer.  Some people are very spe...

(This is the combined 4 part Matthew Cox interview w/no interruptions).   For those of you who don’t know Matthew Cox; he was Number One on the Secret Services most wanted list for stealing $11,500,000 dollars and committing $55,000,000 in mortgage fraud all while on federal probation, all while he was on the run, all while he was committing more fraud.  Ultimately Matt was captured and sentenced...

Some thoughts from A Course In Miracles today…  If I go to gods love I have to relinquish the ego and all its trappings, and I perhaps don’t want to do that.  If I’m here to learn, that means the same for you.  So, in effect, I can’t be upset with your path.  Some thoughts on playing the victim and more! Show notes: The illusions of the ego are so strong.  If I go to god I’m scared I’m gonna lose...

I cover three topics today.  1) What's up with my hair?  2) How I’m slowly but surely gaining ground on my summit project but my perfectionism is a problem here.  3) And I did some chop wood and carry water which felt good. Show notes: My hair keeps growing.  I’m gonna go for 3 years I think :).  Check the FB for my progress :).  How do you do what you love and love what you do when what you curre...

I say a little prayer for direction and then I brainstorm some summit ideas of off the audience.  Including headline, subtopics for a three day summit…  (I’m not sure how I feel about this lol).  And then some commentary on letting go of money being the main motivating factor.   Show notes: What would your life look like if you could transcend the need for money and you move past your need for rel...
