The Carlos Whittaker Podcast That Sounds Fun Network

My friend Jordan Montgomery is joining us to teach us about the art and science of ENCOURAGEMENT. 
Encouragement is a universal language that the whole world will understand in your personal life or your professional life. 
Jordan gives us great examples on how to encourage others including 

Putting others first

Taking responsibility outside of your lane

Noticing others AND letting them know they matter


If it isn’t obvious, you’ll leave these conversation feeling ENCOURAGED and empowered to encourage others.

It’s almost Father’s Day, so who better to have on my show than MY OWN DAD, Dr. Fermin Whittaker?!
Many of you have been on the journey with me as I walk with my parents through my dad’s dementia. And they currently live across the street from me!! 
You’ve fallen in love with the sweet, sweet old man he’s become. And you’ve fallen in love with my mom, who is his caretaker and is LITERALLY living out her vows every. single. day.
Many of you love this version of my dad, and I realized it’s the only version of my dad that you know. 
But for the majority of my life, the version of my father that I had, you don’t know. And I actually have kind of forgotten about that version myself. 
So today I’m introducing you to the father I knew growing up.

This book means a lot to me. I put my life on hold for it. I put a lot into it.
I didn’t look at a screen for 7 weeks. I lived with monks at a monastery. And I lived with an Amish family on their farm. And then I lived with my family at home.
I didn’t disconnect. I reconnected. 
I’m not unpacking everything in the book today. But I am answering some of your questions!

Join me, Heather, Seanna, and Sohaila (and our friend Jacinda!) as we work through some BIG feelings about the wedding in 4 days.
What’s it like to be the father of the bride, the mother of the bride, the sister of the bride, and the bride herself? Listen and find out.
This is raw and authentic. With lots of tears. And there are nuggets that come out of this that I think are applicable to every season of life. 
This might be the most memorable conversation I have with my daughter Sohaila. (And the other girls in my life!!)

Wow! Talk about wedding brain… At the time of recording this, we’re about to head to Jackson, WY for my first-born daughter’s WEDDING.
I feel different about my daughter getting married HOURLY, so I’m talking through that with you.
I’ve been putting together a video for her that has just been reminding me of how far we've come and what an honor it has been to raise her. 
And there’s a little update about my parents in here too…
