“Will You Be Remembered as a Good Person?” FLASHBACK! KEW Episode 16: Who Tells Your Story?

By kpluseiswise | May 2, 2022April 30, 2022 by kpluseiswise

This post was inspired by Lin Manuel Miranda and ‘Hamilton’. History is ‘His’ ‘Story. No matter what happens, it is kept alive in memories, writing, and stories. And whomever keeps it alive interprets the story. However, eyewitness testimony, or individual human memory, has been shown to be among the LEAST reliable way to relate things that happen ( However, eyewitness testimony, or individual human memory, has been shown to be among the LEAST reliable way…

As we pivot from WHAT the Are vs Should Problem is to HOW we deal with it, I wanted to take a minute to further define the KEW listener. Basically, you are someone who is a bit like me, but with plenty of room for differentiation. We are certainly going to be dissimilar, but how are we alike? You have spent most of your life analytical, trusting science and pragmatism over your gut. However, you…

Who Are You? Have you ever asked yourself this question? Have you ever wondered about the ‘big things’? Do you believe Socrates was right when he said, ‘an unexamined life is not worth living?’. If this is you, read on. And please visit the rest of my posts, podcasts, and videos. Because I am one of you. I have asked myself this question from an early age.

KEW Episode 51: Personal Inventory

By kpluseiswise | June 25, 2021October 10, 2023 by kpluseiswise

On our journey to define the ARE vs SHOULD problem (Episode 50), we must first define the ‘existing conditions’. Like many scientific endeavors (and I’m NOT saying this is a scientific endeavor, rather, that I will take a scientific APPROACH), the Are vs Should investigation needs to know where it’s coming from to understand where it’s going. And, really, the personal inventory is just that – it defines where we are at the beginning of…

The concept of a personal inventory is common to many therapy, personal growth, and coaching approaches. Essentially, before you can implement a change, you have to know WHAT you’re changing. So the personal inventory is all your STUFF. Your WANTS. Your NEEDS. Your LIKES. Your DISLIKES. Your VALUES (see Episode 46). Your FAMILY. And so on. You get the picture. But what many of us DON’T GET is how complex this can be. We are…

I mean, really, who are you? No, I mean, really, who are you? Who Am I? Do we know? Do we care? I, for one, think it is important, even CRITICAL to know who I am, and presumably, for you to know who you are. I’m sure there are people out there who disagree with me, but I really can’t get my head into that space nor do I think those folks are coming here…

As we approach 50 episodes at Knowledge + Experience = Wisdom I have been reflecting and preparing for a shift; a pivot, if you will. The last few episodes, 48: Unlearning, 47: Changing Behavior Changes Beliefs, 46: Values, going back to 41: The State of the Podcast, really have been building to something . . . . . new and more organized. I feel like the first 50 Episodes combined with the Curiosity Interview Series…
