ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
The expanded self can best be described by one of my favorite quotes ever: “I am a part of all that I have met” — Lord Alfred Tennyson
We are products of our environment and the people in our lives. I made this podcast to show how we are all connected and how we help shape each other. I will have guests come on that have personally inspired or influenced me in some way and ask them about their respective influences. We will hear from those people as well which will hopefully highlight how unique and unifying the human condition is through glimpses into what provides that spark of inspiration for different people.
I will also utilize the channel to drop brief, solo pods on current events, deep dives into topics, and other areas of interest. I’m always open to topic submissions for discussion as well.
