It makes no difference if you are retiring or making any significant change to your life. We are all on the same journey. So tune in and tag along.

We will talk about “what you can do next.” It might deal with transition, desire, curiosity, loss, or anything else that has to do with our Next Chapter in Life.

    Ellie Gould: #323 Rewiring Limited Real Estate in the Brain

    Ellie Gould: #323 Rewiring Limited Real Estate in the Brain

    Show Notes 
    Today we a once again doing a show with one of my very favorite friends, very sought-after high-performance coach, with a new discipline—as a neuroplastician. Which will obviously be the prominent focus on the podcast today. 
    As to Ellie’s credits… they would take half the show to list them. Still… Ellie’s bestselling book, Feeling Forwards, is endorsed by Tony Robbins and remains popular. She is a university lecturer, coach to very successful people, and is currently working on a doctorate relating the mind/body connection with quantum physics. Huh???

    Pat Wetzel: #322 Intuition-Knowing Without Knowing Why

    Pat Wetzel: #322 Intuition-Knowing Without Knowing Why

    Show Notes 
    Our guest today, Pat Wetzel, is a blogger, soaring pilot, and award-winning author of a book titled Bump in the Road. And, oh by the way, Pat also holds a degree from the Wharton Business School in Finance. 
    It was almost 2 years ago that Pat and I did on show on “soaring,” which means flying an airplane (solo) with no engine or in other words… gliding. Pat is an avid soarer and much, much more. And, since that show, we have become dear friends.
     
    Pat is an enggaing and “very curious” conversationalist, which makes for very fun talks. 
     
    Today we will play a bit of catch-up on life, the universe, and everything as well as a deeper dive into the Intuition, or what I am calling the Art of Knowing without Knowing Why.

    Our guest on today’s show is a 15-year counter-intelligence expert with a large portion of his experience in Afghanistan for ten years and also served in Kuwait, Iran, and Iraq. Yikes! I can’t wait for our conversation on this subject,

    #320 Terry Hershey: Storm Homes

    #320 Terry Hershey: Storm Homes

    Show Notes  
    I’ve been reading… books and essays (or blogs). I recently read two articles that seemed to spawn sort of delightful potpourri of thought and conjecture. One was an article on author Henry Miller by Maria Popova and the other came from recent Terry Hershey Sabbath Moment posts. 
    These are the kinds of ideas that, for me, demand discussion. So today, I’ve asked friend, author, and creative thinker Terry Hershey to ponder with me on several kinds of non-related subjects such as Storm Homes and the totally unrelated subject of the wonder of old age.

    #319 Taryn Voget: “In Person” Value or “Sound-Bite” Hype

    #319 Taryn Voget: “In Person” Value or “Sound-Bite” Hype

    Show Notes  
    Hey Paul.   
    Did you know that our guest today, Taryn Voget, is responsible for birthing our podcast, The Next Chapter with Charlie. This show was all Taryn’s idea.
    After she and I had lunch at a client’s cafeteria, she said something like, “Charlie, you ask such good questions, you should do a podcast.” That was 7 years ago, and today we are on show #319!
    But that’s what Taryn does… she brings the best out of people and very often that best is about something that feels like a surprising attribute. 
    And so today, executive coach, high level consultant and partner-in-thought, Taryn Voget, will surprise us with fresh ideas about life in a whole new era, one of the 60 second, sound-bite mentality that is making us all feel rather insane. 
    I can’t wait to discover what is new in the brilliant mind of Taryn Voget.

    Please check out Taryn’s fabulous website at HERE. 
    Taryn also has a fascinating monthly Newsletter titled Coffee with Taryn. I subscribe… and that in itself is rare. Haha.
    Check out Taryn on YouTube. It so cool!!!
