Transmission for the Outsider

Friends, I released ten new podcast episodes to celebrate my Decade Anniversary of Work Life Play. I'm proud to share these little gems with you. I know they will help you live more fully in your adventure, explore a well-lived life and find more meaning in your daily experience.

A decade ago
I began podcasting in 2012 with borrowed equipment, no training, with a simple idea "I wanted to explore."

I experimented with one tiny step, then the next. Back then, there was no map to How to Podcast. With trust and boldness, I booked my first two guests before I knew how to record or publish an episode. I should have shared this with my guests. Ha!

Compelled to explore beyond the map of my life experiences, expand my mind and heart, and curate stories of good humans. That's as far as I knew. With hindsight's wisdom, I borrow Parker Palmer's explanation for "Why did you do it?" "This is something I can't NOT do, for reasons I'm unable to explain to anyone else and don't fully understand myself, but that are nonetheless compelling."

You're listening to a decade of exploration. The fruits are beyond just inspiration, but transformation for myself and many of you. Enjoy, experiment, and keep going. It's worth it.

Episode: Transmission For The Outsiders

I once believed, If I stopped writing for a while, a pause from publishing and promoting, I'd more readily find the words below the surface.
I see now I may never catalog the anthologies of my soul while in silence.
I believed the world's volume and density were too much to puncture.

I broadcast on a lower frequency for those beyond the crowds.

I used to believe I needed to understand what I was trying to say; who's it for? What's it about? how will it help?

Now I know the grounded substance of my Life, my rooted strength, transmits "wake up to your Life. God's with us."

I'm puzzled by five-year plans, same-day shipping, fresh strawberries in February, Alexa, and how humans claim to love while radically excluding.

Call me a zealot of simplicity, sustainability, and radical love of outsiders.

It's Love who wrote the play.
Keep going-
Aaron
