    Ep. 6 - Wake Up Before It's Too Late

    It's been forever, but I had a wake up call. It usually is the case that we don't realize we are asleep until it's too late. Social Dallas - Robert Madu Bible story referenced - Acts 20:7-12 Social Media: Instagram:⁠ @mrroby31 Medium:⁠ @MrRoby815 Beats Website - ⁠https://rtruthbeats.univer.se

    Episode 5 - 10 Pieces of Advice & What They Mean To Me

    Advice is tough. You don't want to be too personal, you don't want to act like a know-it-all, but you want to be helpful. Each of these 10 pieces of advice is something I need to hear, and I know I can't be alone in that! So, join in and listen to me talk through some of these and unpack what they mean to my life. Thank you for listening!

    Episode 4 - We Want It NOW! - Instant Gratification

    In today's world we are accustomed to getting what we want right away. The internet has fundamentally changed the way we do everything. There is a struggle between instant gratification and delayed gratification that is difficult to navigate, though we usually understand what the right decision is. In this episode I talk about what it is, how we are seeing its effects, and what we can do to help ourselves through these kinds of decisions. This is almost a part 2 to episode 2 on making decisions! Enjoy and let me know what you think!

    Episode 3 - Complacency & The Education System

    This is quite a short episode but I wanted to share some pretty immediate thoughts I had about how complacency affects us and the education system. Complacency is dangerous, and is on my mind a lot. I could do an entire episode on a day in the life or something where I go through any number of the wild things we have to deal with as teachers, but I think I fit a lot in just 14 minutes so I hope you enjoy! I appreciate you all! Please leave any feedback or send me a DM with your thoughts!

    Episode 2 - Making Decisions Is Complicated, Nostalgia, and Living in the Present

    In this episode I discuss Maslow's hierarchy of needs, including how this is relevant to making decisions, why it's important to live in the present, and how nostalgia is a good and bad thing. I am feeling better with this episode and I was really excited to talk about this so again, don't forget to rate and review and leave any feedback! Thank you so much for listening!  Links I mentioned: Simon Sinek - A Bit of Optimism Lost in the Moment - We Came As Romans Social Links: Instagram: @mrroby31 Twitter: @MrRoby815 Medium: @MrRoby815 LinkedIn: Brandon Roby

    Episode 1 - WHY AM I SO NERVOUS? About Me, Why I'm Doing This, and Pleading for Feedback

    This is the first episode of the Why Now? Podcast! I can't believe I'm actually doing this, but here we are. I have wanted to do this for a while but I finally just went for it and am not going to re-record it. 👍 Listen to me ramble about myself for a bit and then explain some basic parts of my mindset for this podcast. I couldn't get the end right and my voice kept shaking, but PLEASE leave a rating and let me know what you liked, didn't like, and want to see in the future!  Social Links: Instagram: @mrroby31 Twitter: @MrRoby815 Medium: @MrRoby815 LinkedIn: Brandon Roby
