This week’s podcast is a re-release from a collection of our top listener favorites over the years. In “Slamming Your Hand in the Car Door of Life”, I discuss why movies can’t be powerful, people can’t be inspiring, and thoughts can never (yes, never) be triggered by circumstances.
This week's podcast is a re-release from a collection of our top listener favorites over the years. “Six Words That Changed My Life” is the story of one of my biggest wake up calls since I began in this conversation.

For the next few Caffeine for the Soul episodes, we will be choosing from some of our top listener favorites from over the years.

A guide to the best feedback mechanism we have for discerning our current state of well-being.
