    This was a terrific podcast. I appreciate that you take on today’s accepted web wisdoms. Too many people sound like copies of the same message, being stunted themselves by that in their ability to progress in doing great, novel work and taking their readers/listeners with them.
    Bravo for challenging the situation.

    How timely. Just left a dulling job and am about to take on a new challenge.   My gut just doesn’t work well in a “comfortable” environment, yet most people seem to think I’m crazy to love change and challenge.Thanks for the validation.

      YES!!! Leaving a job isn’t always the answer, of course, but staying in one for the illusion of safety, and at the expense of contribution, often isn’t either. Change and challenge are what make life worthwhile, as it’s the only way for growth to happen.

    Thanks Todd. I’m constantly on the cusp of understanding why I’m here and what I should be doing, but I feel like I’m closer than ever. Lately, though, I’ve been so distracted by researching what others are doing and getting bogged down in the “I should be doing what this guy does/says…” and taking endless online courses that really are all the same. It’s exhausting (which seems to be a repeating theme for me!). I hope, soon, to be ready to push through to the next step in my “meaning” journey. Listening to this podcast helped open my eyes quite a bit.

    Thank you for your ability to bring poetry, clarity, validation & a swift kick in the ass to the path of the creative. So very inspirational. A huge thank you for taking the time to do these podcasts. They’re a tremendous guidepost. This particular podcast really, really hit home. Do you perchance have a transcript? I’d like to read this often. (as well as your lies, lies, lies, yeah! podcast)
