Recorded on his first full day as Omani, the day after a judge signed his legal name change, this conversation meets Omani Carson at what he calls “a really proud time in my life.” He tells how the name Tate-Omani, “walking into a stiff wind,” was given to him, and how about a decade ago he made the shift from a life run on fear and scarcity to one led by love and abundance. He makes the case for going with your strengths (“If you work on your weaknesses, someday you’ll have a little stronger weakness”), shares the saying he and his wife Jeanie live by (“You haven’t lived until you do something nice for someone who never expected it, who can never repay you”), and walks through the exercise he teaches in his coaching work and at Omya: write your eulogy, then plan your years backward from it. The conversation opens mid-stream, without the usual introduction, and it closes on his final phrase: “Live every day like it’s your last. And most certainly, one day, you’ll be right.”
Omani also shares his own experience of psychedelic-assisted therapy and his views on it. Those views are his own, and nothing in the episode is medical advice.
Omani’s mission, as he shared it at the Do More Good Movement’s 2024 conference: “I can motivate others to live a more purpose filled life.” Strengths heard in that mission, as the host’s own inference and not a test result: Woo and Developer (CliftonStrengths).
