For many of us, long term vision can be a scary concept. This is understandable, because it usually means that we have to put our faith in something we're doing now even though it's not showing a return until much later. But here's the thing - big successes all failed to start with, in one way or another. My equipment: Shure SM7B Microphone Motu M2 Audio Interface Sony MDR-7506 Studio Monitor Head...

In May 2020, Spotify shook the podcasting world when it announced it had signed the hugely popular YouTube show, The Joe Rogan Experience, to an exclusive deal on Spotify. The deal meant Rogan’s show would only be available on Spotify, and his back catalogue of videos on YouTube would be removed. It was part of a huge acquisition journey by Spotify, in their goal to be the number one audio-on-dema...

Take a moment to ask yourself these two questions: How are we encouraging hope in those around us? How are we helping to grow the leaders of tomorrow? This is why we have to think bigger than us.

Nature is the world that allows us to be here. Slow down. Close your eyes. Embrace nature's spirit as she wraps her arms around us.

We often confuse belong with habit. Instead of truly belonging, we remain somewhere, or with someone, because the habit has formed and we feel we know no better.

The sounds of the rain against the pavements and sidewalks. Wet clothes reminding us we're alive.

Beautiful, ephemeral music and sound combine to take you away from everything, if even just for a few moments.

Safe from harm. Safe from the world. The shelter envelopes, and soothes with its embracing sounds.

It takes a lot to commit. Especially if you're someone who needs guarantees before you make the leap. So what can you do?

Close your eyes. Relax. Let the world drift away as you float to your own peaceful moment.

Distant sounds of water, crashing down from top to bottom, soothing the world away with white noise that cleanses.

My first guest is Tom Webster of Sounds Profitable , and former SVP at Edison Research.

As children, we're unafraid to take risks. We see the world as one big adventure, and if we hurt ourselves along the way, our parents are there to make it better, and we move on to the next adventure. Unfortunately, as adults, it seems we've forgotten the art of learning from our mistakes.

The soothing combination of white noise and a steady heartbeat, to ease the day away and settle to deep relaxation.

The deep sea envelopes as you explore, leaving you alone with your thoughts.

The day is over, the rain ride home awaits. Close your eyes and relax until your stop.

Too wet outside to hang your clothes, so relax while the tumble dryer soothes away the day ready for tomorrow.

The love between a grandfather and grandson is one that can't be touched, and far stronger than you or I.

Industrial chaos. Noises abound. Mechanical music drifts throughout. The future beckons.

The power of the sea. Nature at its most fierce and beautiful, as big wave after big wave breaks.

The hum from below, not quite sure where it's coming from. Trying to collide with the hiss of a cassette tape with no recordings, but playing anyway.

Numbers may make us feel better and enable us to have a "better life", but that depends on what your definition of a better life is.

It's not quite wind. It's not quite earthly. It's dark ambience, and it's taking you to another dimension of relaxation.
