QUICK & IMPORTANT UPDATE >> After taking six weeks off from the main feed of the pod, I've come to realize two things: 1) sometimes when I want to cut&run, all I really need is an open-ended breather... and 2) the 'cult'ure series ain't over yet! I'm not sure how much longer I'll carry on, but I've decided to keep tending the fire awhile longer. Folks just keep showing up for amazing conversations - and in solidarity with this...
After taking six weeks off from the podcast, I’ve come to realize two things: 1) sometimes when I want to cut&run, all I really need is an open-ended breather... and 2) the ‘cult’ure series isn’t over yet. I’m not sure how much longer I’ll carry on, but I’ve decided to keep the fire burning for now. Folks just keep showing up for amazing conversations - and in solidarity with this work - so we’re gonna keep at it through the...
Hi y'all. I'd initially planned on saving this two-part conversation until after the 'cult'ure series wraps. But I've since decided to go ahead and roll it out now, because friendship and belly laughs are always helpful around the holidays. Long time good friend of the pod, Monica Welty, joins Tracy & I for a two-part 'cult'ure series recap, and the three of us reflect on two-plus years podcasting & how the ‘cult’ure series in...
Next week, we'll be featuring another guest convo here. It's an insightful two-parter & we really can't wait to share it with you! In the meantime... Have you been wondering what happened with Episode #74? 🤷♀️ Why I deleted it right before it was scheduled to drop? If so, you'll wanna check out this week’s episode of Deconstructing Dogma. We recorded dd #47 on November 14th, when I was still in the writing/production phase on...
First I just want to say to ALL of you out there... whether you tune into DD bonus episodes or not... without your support, I simply would not have been able to carry this work forward. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your monthly donations! And fyi, I'm still hoping to wrap the 'cult'ure series before the new year, and I quite literally wouldn't have it in me to power forward without you. We're back with another episode of...
Tracy & I are back with another episode of Deconstructing Dogma. This week, we dig into the research of Dr. Robert Cialdini and his book Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion. Some consider it a research-based marketing manual for folks looking to close the deal, but it's also an insightful deconstruction of how exactly persuasion leads to the loss of personal agency... and the sorts of dynamics we've been talking about over the course of...
You know that thing when you get to the end of a book, the final chapter, and you read the last few words and think to yourself… THAT’S IT? Are you freakin’ kidding me with that ending?! You may have enjoyed the rest of the story, but you walk away feeling sorta ‘meh’ or even disappointed. Yeah. I don’t want the last episode of the ‘cult’ure series to be like that. I’ve been feeling kinda antsy to wrap, to finish off the...
