In this week's conversation, we explored a topic that quite honestly should have come up a LOT earlier! The angst we carry through almost every moment of our day is not only crippling at times, but can often feel "lame" that we have the feeling in the first place. Could this be an experience that EVERY human being is constantly managing at some level, but without talking about it? What do you think? … [Read more...]
#41 – Stretched Thin: Outsourcing, Consistency & Saying No
In this week's show, Dobbo "had a little chat" with Mick about how the fixed and consistent weekly upload pattern has dropped off? Why? What's been going on? Is Risking Failure dropping in priority? We talked about what might seem like the topic of "overwhelm" which we've covered before - but it was actually more about how we deal with having many things to do, how things suffer and whether that's an issue or not. In addition to all this, … [Read more...]

#38 – Vulnerability Part 2
This week's show is part 2 of the vulnerability episode we had last week (you can checkout part 1 here). Please hold on, as part 2 is better than part 1 (Just like all the great duo's and trilogies!!) Of course, we all thought this conversation was a load of bullocks at the time, but as we've listened back we think maybe we hit the odd insight here and there! Hope you enjoy! … [Read more...]
#37 – Vulnerability Part 1
This episode is a 2 part subject on the topic of vulnerability. ML joined us again to offer a bit more of an even take on this subject... And also because all three of us have done a fair bit of thinking on this subject. Not surprisingly, this topic is largely inspired or drawn from the challenging ideas and inspiring research done by Brene Brown. If you are not familiar with her work, you ought to check out two podcast interviews that have … [Read more...]

#35 – Uncertainty…
In this episode, we quite frankly covered a lot of ground. But the wide reaching conversation was generally tied together by the concept of uncertainty. Risk... Yes, but the ongoing uncertainty that we carry into almost every new and ongoing thing we do. … [Read more...]
