The Next Chapter with Charlie
Show Notes A common subject these days has to do with the trauma… and how each of us has experienced some kind of trauma in our past and, unfortunately for many, it is still a very present reality. A theme I have been working on for a couple of years now, is that each of us is an amalgamation of who we have been and what we have experienced in our past. And very often, that past continues to slip into our present making, us prey for our demons of our past. What if we could find a way to manage and deal with negative events of our past that we could possibly we could live freer...

#291 David Lawrence: Free Will or Determinism
The Next Chapter with Charlie
Podcast Opening Do we choose the life we live or is our life predetermined by nature, God, DNA, personal experience, or evolution?

#289 Terry Hershey: Wisdom as a Way of Being
The Next Chapter with Charlie

Unfortunately, too many influential leaders focus on so-called facts, while pretty much totally ignoring the eternal value of wisdom. Today, I’m looking forward to chatting to Terry about the place of wisdom in our everyday life—sort of a “lessons learned” from a couple of older guys. Terry Hershey is our most regular guest. If you don’t know him, Terry is a prolific writer, conference keynote...

#288 Lessons from the Tomb (REVISITED)
The Next Chapter with Charlie
As Charlie enjoys a cruise to Alaska to celebrate his wife's birthday, I thought we'd replay one of my favorite shows I (as the producer) got to participate in last year that we called "LESSONS FROM THE TOMB". If the title alone doesn't intrigue you enough to listen, here are some of Charlie's notes from that original episode: "This show is about endings and beginnings and the unspoken time in-between the two. Life is one long journey of these beginnings and endings like projects, careers, marriages and even life itself. As T.S. Elliot writes in his poem East Coker from Four Quartets, to...

We live in an unprecedented time of total disclosure of the personal lives of our politicians—male and female. But today we will discuss with Anne Michaud the stories of the wives of famous political men involved in serial sex scandals and deeply held personal agendas.
The question frequently asked about these women Is “Why do they stay with such philanderers?” Common responses range from weakness to a misguided drive for some sort of personal advantage.
Anne Michaud very aptly clarifies the motivations, strategies, and tactics of these women in her truly enormously insightful book Why They Stay: Sex Scandals, Deals, and Hidden Agendas.
In today’s thought-provoking and marvelously insightful chat Anne offers surprising conclusions on how certain women have dealt with the most difficult of husbands.
