I am just going to say it! This guy knows life on a first name basis. He flips the light switch on in the room and allows you to truly take stock of the “laboratory” in your head. I appreciate and look forward to his podcast weekly! Thank you for doing this, getting so intimate and in our face, you rock!

Get into it!

I’m blown away. Must admit I listened to this podcast last month. Evidently, I wasn’t  ready to embrace the wisdom therein, so I allowed a few choice words (words I sometimes use myself) to shorten my listening time. Tonight, I think I’m ready to be the student.  I listened. Completed my first day in class. Thank you! I get it. This is just the lesson I need. My teacher is here!
Can’t wait to continue after work tomorrow. 
Love, Lela

When the student is ready, the teacher will come
