This passion project of mine will allow me to interview some of the most incredible people in my life. Their stories should be heard and I'm hopeful you enjoy their pursuit as much as I have. Necessary Pursuit talks to everyone! We talk about life, faith, work, passion and what ultimately lead to their pursuits.
Please let me know what you think. Shane@necessarypursuit.com
When I first met Outlandish back in 2018, I knew he had talent and a natural musical ability. What I didn’t know was just how far that talent would take him—or that he would become the Tampa Bay artist he is today!
You can find Outlandish just about everywhere, continually perfecting his craft and commanding the stage. In this episode, we talk about his journey, his pursuit of transformation, finding alignment in life, and so much more.
Take a listen, get to know the man behind the music, and hear the story for yourself. We also had the privilege of having Reg Black in studio as he is a part of The Lancasters who are the supportive backup vocalists to Outlandish. Black stands for Blessings, Lessons and Knowledge.
**This is OUTLANDISH!** 🎶🔥
Enjoy the episode!

Julie Palumbo - Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach
STOP chasing the number on the scale.
What if being healthy had nothing to do with being skinny?
The truth is, you can look “fit” on the outside and still not be living your healthiest life. Real wellness starts when you focus on becoming your Best Whole Self—mind, body, and everything in between.
I’m joined by Julie Palumbo on this Episode, a National Board-Certified Health and Wellness Coach, who shares her incredible journey from analyzing financials to transforming lives through health and wellness coaching.
We dive into:
What true wellness really means
Why the scale doesn’t define your health
The importance of mental, emotional, and physical well-being
Simple mindset shifts that can help you become the best version of yourself
If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything “right” but still aren’t where you want to be, this conversation is for you.

The Big Gay Radio Show - LGBTQIA+ Representation
What can I say about two of my favorite guests?
Chris Gorman and Esme Russell are the hosts of The Big Gay Radio Show on WMNF Radio, airing every Tuesday at 11:00 AM. That time slot carries special significance, and the conversations they bring to the airwaves each week make it an important platform for their community.
In this episode, we dive into the political landscape, explore Chris and Esme's personal journeys and careers, discuss the history and mission of The Big Gay Radio Show, and share our hopes for its future.
It's an engaging, insightful, and often entertaining conversation that you won't want to miss.
**Fun Fact**
Esme Russell appeared on the very first episode of Necessary Pursuit! She also became Ordained as a Minister and married my Husband and I in 2023!
We love her and Chris...Enjoy :)
