Times change, people evolve, and understanding what society needs is an important part of success. In fact, being sensitive to changes is the optimal way to stay ahead of change so that you can adjust accordingly. I believe the world is in need of a new type of inspiration. Admittedly, in this episode, I may raise more questions than answer them. Because I’m not entirely sure what it will look like or what to call it, but I’ve been sensing a new need in the style of inspiration for quite some time. (more…)

We have something truly special for you today. A two-part episode on the topic of Emotional Branding.

What’s your favorite part of summer celebrations? In the U.S., we’re celebrating the 4th of July today. Burgers, bbq’s, and fireworks. Especially the fireworks. Collective oooos and ahhhhs as hundreds of thousands of people look up into the night sky. The sounds of amazement. I’ve been thinking a lot about amazement lately. I think most of us could use a bit more amazement in our lives. Why not? So much in life is amazing. Nature, incredible feats of accomplishment, even a simple everyday moment can be amazing.

We all have those moments.
