18: Ramey Barnett on Quittirement and Taking Control of Our Lives
Ramey Barnett is one of the smartest, funniest and most fiery people I know. But I was still floored when she and her wife quit their jobs and took a year to find themselves. The year is up and they are not going back. We talk about courage, their journey and how to take control of our lives.

17: Terry Mixon On Finding Your Audience and My Wife Carries a Tazer
Terry was one of the people who inspired me to become a writer. He walked away from NASA at 50 and turned to writing an epic science fiction series that is now generating enough revenue that Terry is considering becoming a full-time writer. We talk about fearing rejection, finding your audience and the myth of "overnight success."

16: Walking Alone with Charlotte Eriksson
This week I am speaking with Charlotte Eriksson, otherwise known as The Glass Child. She is a poet, writer, storyteller, musician and artist. We are speaking about her first book, Empty Roads & Broken Bottles. This book starts with her leaving home at 18 and choosing to live on the streets of London in order to follow her purpose. I love her story.
I adored Charlotte's epic and heart-tugging story in her lovely book, Empty Roads & Broken Bottles: In Search for the Great Perhaps.

This week I am speaking with prop stylist, world traveler, gardener and photography fiend Chelsea Fuss. She is a childhood friend and has a very successful lifestyle blog called Frolic. Then one day she announced she was shutting all this down and heading overseas to work on farms in trade for her room and board. Two weeks later, she was on the journey of a lifetime.

Customer Reviews
Generous and inspiring
These podcasts are imbued with such an inspiring and generous spirit. I am always left with a feeling that I have to go out and create. But it's not all "airy-fairy" stuff - they are full of practical tips on how to follow your passion, as well as pay your bills. They are also very well produced, and Sean manages to edit them (somehow) into 30 sharp minutes. Highly recommended for anyone making a leap into an area they want pursue but can't quite see the way how. This podcast found me at just the right time, and I am truly appreciative that Sean is putting all this time in creating it. It's very generous - thanks!
