This episode I chat with Christopher Waterhouse as Scottie is on leave. We talk about asking for help, why you should consider it and what a great community builder it is.

This week Scottie and I talk about how to celebrate people in a way that suits them. Bottom line: celebrate often and don’t worry too much about how.

I chat with Scotty about that feeling that if you just apply the right technique, method or plan, your life will be perfect from that moment on. I talk about how there is no silver bullet or happily ever after. How instead, we need to find balance and rhythm in our lives.

I will be at the book fair at the Brooke Street Pier this Saturday from 10–3 and I’d love to see some of you there!

The crisis seems to have passed. Moz’s Dad is doing much better and should be home in a few weeks. So I have turned my attention to more mundane things and I talk with Scottie about attacking your big jobs by breaking them into smaller chunks. I talk about the surprising benefit that came from doing this with housework.

The month of March for me was filled with crisis after crisis. I talk with Scottie about how the space I had already built into my schedule helped me to cope when the waves of crisis hit. This is a more personal podcast where I also talk about my faith in God and how that has also helped in the last little while.
