   Everyday Buddhism 120 - I Lost My Why: A Podcast Journey

   Another solo podcast! This time it's about my Everyday Buddhism podcast journey and how I lost my "why." If you want to hear more about how important understanding what your why is, I talked about that in my second podcast episode, "Everyday Buddhism 2 - What is Your WHY?" The podcast has been such a meaningful space for me: A way to explore, connect, and grow with all my listeners. But more recently, I've noticed that the creative spark that once fueled these episodes has started to dim. I feel myself evolving and being drawn toward a wider, more spacious range of ideas and conversations than the current podcast focus or title really allows. Listen to hear more about my next steps in how I will explore ideas that expand my philosophical range. I plan to explore perennial philosophy, consciousness studies, mysticism, and contemplative traditions more broadly, Buddhism will still be part of the conversation, but not the only lens.

Inside a recent episode

Turning-Ep. 2 - Grace

Published 3 Sept 2026 · Transcript excerpt

[…] I believe in that Buddha. From my life experiences and from my observation of the experiences of others, it is our failures and suffering in life that teach us to let go and get out of the way of what is. All wisdom traditions teach the possibility of transformation. Transformation can come through personal growth and spiritual development that happens through the study and practice of philosophical and religious teachings that focus on cultivating wisdom, compassion, and a deeper understanding of oneself and the world. Those things are self-power. But both Buddhism and Christianity teach a transformation that comes from causes external to our self-power. […]
