Dating Dreams--An Interview with Dr. Darren Johansen

I rebroadcast this episode because Dr. Darren Johansen gave great advice when I interviewed him during my first season. Dr. Johansen counsels individuals, families, and others on financial and relationship matters. He served as president of the Mountain West Chapter of the National Speakers’ Association. He shares insights based on research and counseling hundreds of couples on how to create, strengthen, and recover dating relationships.

Dreams of Travel, Giving, & So More--Interview with Michele (Reprise)

Michele inspired me so much with how well she lets her dreams work to travel, give, do so much more that I decided to rebroadcast her interview from my first season. Professionally, she purchases jewelry for a high-end catalogue. She also travels multiple times a month. In addition, she volunteers for a community garden, county sports facilities, other ventures. Finally, she cares for her mother who is an assisted-care facility. I hope her example inspires you.

Created Their Own Iron Man

This is a story of an event I attended with three previous podcast guests. Dora and Daphne decided they wanted to compete in an iron event. Existing (or sanctioned) events did not interest them. The dream included putting the whole thing together: mapping the swimming, biking, and running routes. In addition, they arranged for people to staff the help stations and encourage them around the routes. Listen to how they optimized connections, acted consistently, labeled their limitations, and synergized every week. I hope it inspires you to let your dreams work.
