Authenticity in Creative Pursuits

We’ve all familiar with a mid life crisis,right? In this sense, the crisis can mean you feel significant misalignment between your life and your true authentic self. Well, yet again, I think I had that kind of crisis experience earlier in life than most do. Listen in as I share my own "quarter life" crisis when I chose to step back from my first career in sports TV journalism. I'm Nick O'Brien, and this has been The Hostory.

Persistent Self-Discovery

Creating a podcast is an expression of self-discovery. On this episode of The Hostory, I explain how the game of basketball taught me disciplined self-improvement…at an early and formative time in my life. As you take in this part of my story, I encourage you to reflect on the interests or experiences that helped shaped your discovery of yourself. I'm Nick O'Brien, and this has been The Hostory.
