Where do you look to find humanity? What is the purpose of creation? How can we find our place within or beyond technology’s reach? Questions start conversations. Answers end them. This podcast takes the quest in questions to explore the infinitude of human experience by welcoming guests to discuss what arises for them when asked seven strategically open questions from the book, ’Which Way Is North: A Creative Compass for Makers, Marketers, and Mystics” by author and host, Will Cady.
Join for conversations with artists, entrepreneurs, cultural leaders, mothers, fathers, authors, models, speakers, strategists, and good human beings who are each given the opportunity to choose their identity: speak their truth underneath their given name or stretch out behind the anonymity of an archetypal name. Which of these do you suppose yields a conversation with more humanity? Listen and decide for yourself.

Good writing is about having a perspective. Great writing is about taking a journey that shows how a perspective can change. That's why the word 'journey' is at the heart of 'journalism'.
Hear from the perspective of writer, publisher, editor, and cultural figure, Bob Guccione Jr who ran some of the biggest print magazines of the 1990s and found himself at the center of all manner of controversy in the process.
Listen for how Bob speaks on the importance of knowing how to disagree, how to debate, how to be in the discourse of what shapes our culture. It's a perspective we need to learn from today.

Jenny Boyd is a former 60s model and the younger sister of Patty Boyd, who was married to George Harrison and Eric Clapton. Married to McFleetwood twice. Jenny has been immersed in the world of rock and roll since her teens.

A good friend to The Beatles, she worked at their retail venture, Apple Boutique in London. In 1968, she accompanied sister Patti on the band’s visit to Rishikesh in India, where they studied transcendental meditation with Maharishi Mahesh Hiyogi. Jenny co-wrote two songs for the band Fleetwood Mac, although the group’s manager gave the writing credits to her husband, Mick Fleetwood. She earned a PhD in psychology and spent many years running an addiction treatment center in England. Jenny’s critically acclaimed memoir, Jennifer Juniper, was published in early 2023.
