The Why Not Perspective

Thanks to everyone who supported the Why Not Perspective. My friends and I have taken time to remember a great man, Ben Durosola. He is still missed and was a great friend and colleague. I am sure he would hope you are all still living your lives in a why-not perspective. Best wishes to all of you.

I wish I had better news for our listeners. After thinking about this for over a week, I have decided to stop The Why Not Perspective for the foreseeable future. I will leave the podcast up for another week for those who want to download any remaining episodes before discontinuing our hosting service. This decision did not come easily. I originally had a loose idea for this website/podcast and shared it with Ben back when we first met. [ 172 more words ]

Welcome back to another episode. This is my first swing at recording a solo episode, and I'll be honest it is a lot more challenging than I expected. I did enjoy this topic and I hope it's something you connect with as well. In this episode I explore the hurdles with finding one's passions and hobbies and when it's necessary to break away from things that no longer bring you joy in order to make room for new things and opportunities.
