Who in the World

About Who in the World

In this podcast, I’m going to chat with the interesting, remarkable, and sometimes downright crazy people I’ve met from my travels and time living abroad. I’ve spent a good part of my adult life traveling, and the last decade living in places like Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Cambodia, Thailand, and the Philippines.During that time, I’ve run into some of the most amazing people you can imagine. This podcast is a forum for me to share their voices, their stories, and give you a glimpse into their lives.-Norm Schriever

   The Who in the World Podcast #34: Ian 🇺🇸

   Do you have a good friend; someone who you consider yourself close to and who is impactful on your life, although you’ve never actually met them in person? For me, that person is Ian, who I was connected with a long time ago based on a mutual friend and wild life events (long story). For years now, Ian and I have chatted on Facebook and got to know each other, getting to know about each other’s lives, families, aspirations, and even supporting our favorite charities back and forth. So, it was a great pleasure to finally get Ian on the podcast. In this conversation, you’ll hear how Ian is living a full, rich, and rewarding life despite being diagnosed with FHS - a rare degenerative and incurable disease - as a child. Now in his 50s, Ian talks about how gratitude changed his life, his love of music, why his family saved, him and the legacy of good vibes he’s giving the world. Enjoy this chat with my friend, Ian!

   The Who in the World Podcast #33: Sharon & Rob 🇺🇸 🇲🇽

   When I first moved to Sacramento in 2003, I literally knew no one in the city. Eager to make friends and expand my circle with positive, impactful people, I started volunteering and attending charity events. It paid off with lifelong friends and connections, such as with the guests on the Who in the World podcast today, Sharon Gerber Scherer and Rob Scherer. To me, they stood ten feet tall – they were well-accomplished in business, revered in the community, and incredibly well connected. What’s more, they were achieving their success by helping others – what a win-win! It was a eureka moment for me to witness them in action and even stand in their shadow. Over the years there, we all became friends, as I enjoyed supporting their fundraisers and charitable projects, they always came to my humble functions, and I even got to dog sit their four-legged baby. Cabo, when they were out of town. Now, we all have moved on from Sacramento (although the 916 will always hold a special place in our hearts). Sharon and Rob live in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, where they are a shining example of how to move abroad, how to reinvent yourself, and how to live a well-balanced life of fun and service. So, I hope you enjoy this Sunday morning, tequila sunrise podcast chat with the people I’m still honored to know and call friends all of these years later, Sharon and Rob. Oh, and Cabo, too! Your buddy, Norm :-)

   The Who in the World Podcast #32: ML 🇺🇸🏳️‍🌈

   In this episode #32 of the Who in the World Podcast, I have the pleasure of introducing you to ML, one of the most amazing human beings I’ve ever had the privilege of knowing. I first met ML in Sacramento, Ca when we had both newly moved there in the 2000s, her from NYC where she was an actress and arts promoter for 7 years, and me from CT. Upon being introduced by a mutual friend, we became homies instantly, and shared a common vision for community, networking, empowering the arts scene in Sactown, and generally encouraging a higher vibration for all of those around us. In fact, there’s no one I know who loves, supports, & encourages the arts more than ML and, by her side, I’ve experienced art gallery showings, concerts, video shoots, yoga, meditation, all-bodies yoga, fundraisers, and rollerskating topless waitresses. It’s no wonder why I call her my “soul sister!” But ML is also one of the kindest, caring, and accepting people I’ve ever known, and I deeply respect both her and her husband, Pete. I love the journey she’s on – always evolving and growing while empowering others to do the same – and I’ll always be her #1 fan! So, enjoy this chat with ML and I’m glad you’ll get to know here as I have through this podcast!
